Is anyone planning to go to the #Hokusai exhibition at Dulwich? I'd love to but don't see me getting to London by mid-Jan.

Maybe I should really consider redoing my entire network with better hardware 😅. But I’m planning to wait until I need to buy a new router for the fiber connection I will hopefully be getting next year.
Still, I would really appreciate a week or two without tech issues.

Today in The Conversation Canada, Jeremy Wildeman of Carleton University and Aisha Ahmad of the University of Toronto explain that while a U.S. military strike on its northern neighbour sounds like an extreme “tail-risk” scenario, Prime Minister Mark Carney and top defence officials aren’t taking any chances. With the Canadian Armed Forces expanding reserve forces to 400,000 for homeland defence, Ottawa is actively scenario-planning for the unthinkable.

" “To have this change to the planning system from the government that does not allow us to restrict the blanket building of housing development and maintain the character of Stockport as we would like to do is a bitter pill to swallow.”
