- an incredible waste of time and paper
- a burned fuser in a laser printer
- the absolute certainty that printers and their software are the utter negation of everything computers were supposed to be
The Antichrist, the Omega, the final destination of mankind will be born when some LLM Agent will mate with a printer.

Johnny Harris (he doesn't seem to have a presence here) has a really good video out right now on public transportation in Switzerland. "By law, every village in Switzerland, which has people living all year round, they have the right of public transportation. It can be a train, it can be a gondola, it can be a bus. Whatever." That's pretty cool.

First round of links for 2026. Everything is bad, so have some links to cheer you up.
I really liked the article about visibility, the one about Friday deploys, and sitting alone in a café … which I can relate to.
I am a big fan of Bill Nighy's podcast, that certainly will improve your mood.
For some reason, the random section is full of cassette tape related links.
Good Morning #Canada
Did you know that a Dodecahedron is a 12-letter name for any 12-sided shape. And did you also know that on this day in 1962, the Canadian Government decreed that our dodecahedron nickel was decadent and that round was right. Pre-1962 nickels are now pretty worth a nickel, but a coin in "mint condition" has been known to fetch a few pennies more.
Have you noticed there are more coin buying events in your neighbourhoods over the past few years? Some of that activity is driven by buyers taking advantage of people wanting to sell old jewelry, collectibles, or jars of coins that are sitting in the back of drawers or closets. But the rise of digital transactions, particularly increased during COVID when no one wanted to touch your infected money, has increased the collectible value of coins and, in some cases, the actual metal value exceeds the face value.

Iran’s supreme leader has vowed that authorities will not back down in the face of a rapidly growing protest movement,
setting the stage for an intensified violent crackdown on the second day of a nationwide internet shutdown.
Protests have raged in cities and towns across the country in recent days,
posing a threat to the authority of the regime, which has been significantly weakened since the last large protest movement in the country in 2022.
