Some people like having exclusives or special features or whatever; especially because of how rare they are. And that includes health and safety and housing and food security.
The inequality is the point.

I'm not in her electorate, but I have seen some negative campaigning from Dutton against Ellie. Obviously he is worried that she might have enough support for him to lose his seat.

My niece, flabbergasted that there's no fresh bento in a small town convenience store in Ontario: "We can just get onigiri. Right?" 🫠
I've been playing The Last of Us Part 1. Only a few hours in, but holy hell, this is tense. I don't think I've had my heart race like that while playing video games for a long time, and I'm getting really invested in the story and the relationship with Ellie. Not to mention the absolutely haunting opening sequence. Fantastic game so far.
Also, massive props to the #Wine and
Quanta Magazine authors Janna Levin and Steven Strogatz strike up a conversation with Ellie Pavlick (Research Scientist at Google Deep Mind) about the differences and similarities between the way people understand language, what NLP algorithms do, and the fact that such conversations more often than not shed light into more than Linguistics' computational side.

Bike Month is back, and that means it's time for Pedal Poll! We're counting usage of active transit (and adjacent) facilities along corridors in our cities next week.
If you have 2 hours to spare, sign up for a shift!

Sometimes EDITOR=nano on some weird machine I ssh'd to and I just finish editing the config file and move on without having feelings about it.
What if there was a game like Deathloop and Hitman but with Final Destination vibes where the objective was to run around manipulating the environment so everyone lives? And there was an old Bioshock-esque Hifi system where one could save memories or artifacts or worldstate changes across loops? And it wasn't a game?

I'd really like some slightly warmer and dryer weather for camping plz. 5°C in drizzling rain isn't as much fun.

The only feature I want from new personal tech is reduced total energy use. Maybe longer battery life.
So, the opposite of this shit.

Does "x is 2 times weaker than y" mean something? Does "x is 1.07 times weaker than y"? What about "x is 0.2 times weaker than y"? Where does this construct come from? Is it regional?

23km bike ride today, to one town over, stopped for coffee, got my brows done, and dropped the bike at a shop for some long-overdue maintenance. Need to replace the chain, worn cassette, stretched brake cables, and clean a winter's worth of road grime out of every crevice.
That'll take a week, so bussed home. Got another coffee across the street while waiting 3 minutes for a transfer.
Good day.

Reminder to people who drive motor vehicles on streets in the city. Street driving is generally allowed, except where signs give notice it is prohibited. But it must be done with due caution and reasonable speed, and the motorist must yield to all other traffic, including pedestrians, cyclists, and trams, and must give an audible signal before overtaking and passing. Learn more in our 90-second training seminar, "DRIVING ON STREETS, Being A Polite Guest".

Found myself in Hamilton Ontario without my bicycle, and the opportunity to check out the local #SoBi #bikeshare system. Super easy signup, easy to access docks, wildly chonky locks, and *baskets*.
The bikes would really benefit from better lights though. It gets dark out here.
