The City of Toronto’s Skate Lending Library, in partnership with Desjardins Financial Group, brings free ice skates and helmet rentals to outdoor rinks in Toronto. Whether you’re taking your first glide on the ice or a seasoned professional, we’re aiming to make skating accessible to all.

My _personal_ take is that I consider public community chat to be ephemeral, which is why I've never been particularly concerned about using Discord.

One of my VR Lighthouses died last month. These things are gyroscopically spinning 24 hours a day for, what, a decade now? Nearly.
No wonder. Mostly the industry seems to be settling on using head-mounted cameras rather than sweeping infra-red beams and receptors on the head anyway.
It is true that lighthouses give accurate positioning, but means I can't easily take the headset next door, say. Or to a party.
So inside-out, as they call it, is fine for the headset now and mostly okay for the hand-controllers.

Have you had your identity verified on LinkedIn to get the blue tick?

Scored some Ajwa dates and halva yesterday. I'm a huge date fan and the Ajwa cultivar is currently my favorite, like eating fresh caramel. Indigenous to Saudi Arabia, I think, where most of them are grown. And halva was the dessert I'd request on special occasions when I was a kid. It also blends nicely in ice cream and is a great addition to banana bread. #food #dessert #fruit #dates #halva
