Solar is now being installed faster than any technology in history | RenewEconomy https://reneweconomy.com.au/solar-is-now-being-installed-faster-than-any-technology-in-history/ “In 2023, #solar PV and #wind comprised about 80% of global generation capacity additions (and 99% in Australia). This is compelling market-based evidence that solar PV and wind are the best options for new #ElectricityGeneration capacity. New solar capacity is being installed faster than anything else in history“ #RenewableEnergy

@auscandoc @thepoliticalcat I have nuclear in my backyard. Not at all concerned about it.

Seems some of you are still unaware of our saga.

I wrote 2 posts about it that I share every so often for those interested:

@GottaLaff Immigrated here as a child and still thankful my parents made the move. Last time I was in Port Moody Vashti Rose ice cream was topping my list, the saffron pistachio rose flavour was amazing.

‘HR is not your friend’: why frustrated workers are hiring reps of their own

@MJCarty HR reps are hired, fired and promoted by the same company you’re having problems with. Of course they aren’t your friends.

Loblaws made over 2 billion in profits last quarter, that's aprox. $50 for every Canadian.

They say they are reinvesting in their company, but they spent 1.7 billion on stock buybacks to drive up stock prices.

Profits weren't used for infrastructure and did not go to employees.

Meanwhile, prices increase and inflation is rising.

@Snowshadow @gemelliz Imagine if Loblaws had used some of that money to upgrade HVAC systems to protect their customers instead.

Bob Hepburn: Media fails Canadians by giving a free pass to Pierre Poilievre

@EricLawton I spoke with a working class Canadian today who thinks they will vote Conservative next time. This is someone who retired with a nice pension from a unionized job who doesn’t realize those things didn’t come from rightwing governments or that voting right wing makes him a class traitor. And yes the constant drip of rightwing media including social media has influenced them.

"The RCMP has launched a criminal investigation into Premier ’s $8.28-billion Greenbelt land swap scandal.

In another stunning setback for Ford’s embattled Progressive Conservatives, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police’s “sensitive and international investigations” team is formally on the case." 🇨🇦https://www.thespec.com/thestar/politics/provincial/rcmp-launches-criminal-investigation-into-doug-ford-s-greenbelt-land-swap/article_bd7e6b80-55c8-5b2b-b5e1-c46fe8e0f83f.html

@GottaLaff The OPP punted the Greenbelt scandal to the RCMP in August2023. OPP had been reviewing it since fall 2022. With the RCMP finally opening a criminal investigation I’m unsure if that means justice will be served or if we will just get more foot dragging. It seems obvious there was wrongdoing otherwise why were ministers and staff stepping down.

    @scott Turns out this will be the best part of your life. You will get pulled and stretched, lose sleep and worry. But you grow too and it’s the most rewarding and exciting time. When that little burrito leaves home you will wonder how it went by so fast and you will miss it.

    Argh I've misread the pattern for the sleeves and so I ended up 2 stitches short on both the sleeves but one extra stitch somehow on the front, leaving me 1 stitch short overall (since Iwas supposed to reduce 2 for the pattern).

    Do I rip out the sleeves to fix it or add a stitch and keep going?

    @tannat @knitting I hope it turned out for you. I love the colours in it.
