@MIHomeYGK Power is now coming back on in the Railway St. area.

We desperately need some good #Mars movies for kids. @Pixar you really should team up with @NASAJPL to bring all those awesome charismatic rovers to the silver screen.

One for @funranium's next visit to Japan. Gotta love it when you see "the dose is low" (followed by an implied "trust us, really") without any numbers or units.

@maxfawcett @prairiecentrist @S_HastingsSimon "We promise to discuss the framework of a plan for developing technology pathways that will enable us to eventually stop accelerating the rate at which we are making the problem worse."

@prairiecentrist @S_HastingsSimon It's definitely a plan to stick it to future generations.

Dozens of "news sites" filled with machine-generated content of dubious quality have already cropped up. Why it matters: #GenerativeAI systems can recycle conspiracy theories + other open-web misinformation. Important piece by @InaFried. Read it. axios.com/2023/07/10/ai-…

I'll believe this when I see @Bell actually pulling fibre on my street in one of the named communities. For $3,227 per house passed, the build-out ought to be GPON to every house at 1Gbps symmetric and no usage caps. Anything less and the government is getting ripped off.

The problem is the problem. We need to get off fossil fuels as soon as possible.

@VoiceOfFranky Good analysis. Further rate hikes at this point are just beating up on recent home-buyers; the corresponding upside simply isn't there. It's time for stability now.

@connieinygk Ouch. That stuff is brutal; wild parsnip makes a pretty strong case for the snuggling of powerful contraband herbicides. Hope you're ok!

“The tornado will dissipate the wildfire smoke” is a real climate catastrophe vibe for this fine Ottawa evening.

@HistoryToLearn @McneJames

What do you think @cityofkingston can this be done with the lights on City Hall?

I dunno, Russia; it looks to me like the Ukrainians will still be able to recognize "ship with missile launcher and big-ass deck guns" as hostile in spite of the extra paint.
