@ElectroBOOMGuy @ZacksJerryRig I’ve been in the metro Vancouver area for 26 years…can say the same, water supply hasn’t been an issue but that said I do have a few reused milk jugs full of water if need be.

@ZacksJerryRig Issue is in the past 25 years in Vancouver, I never had a critical water issue. But who know, perhaps thanks to global warming we get some!

If your tap water suddenly lost pressure - How many days worth of water do you have in your house or apartment to live off of? I'm curious.

@jodyvance Hell yeah, it’s about time someone focused on local politics, especially here in Vancouver.

@DriveBC I've said it before and I'll say it again highway 3 is the best route to go from Hope to Alberta if you want to see scenery, also all the small towns like Keremeos, Cawston, Creston Midway, Castlegar, Osoyoos, Salmo, Grand Forks, Sparwood, etc. all have a nice charm to them.

@Barnacules I'm still running Windows 10 in my household...that said all Windows 10 devices are enrolled in extended security updates thanks to my MS Account...for some odd reason I get ESU's free.

If you're running Windows 11 you should go install all the security updates that just released. I have a feeling there are some major security fixes in there from Microsoft scanning their codebase with Anthropic Mythos seeing as it's insanely good at finding exploits. 🤔

@Smil3yAngel And if you work for an employer that also observes Easter Monday…you get to enjoy a 4 day long weekend with pay for both Friday and Monday because they’re awesome like that.

Yesterday I found out that Good Friday is not a statutory holiday in the US. It is in Canada 🇨🇦 Most Canadians (Quebec is different), get the day off with pay. If you do work, you get 2.5x your pay, or a paid day off. Yet another reason why I'm thankful I'm Canadian. 🇨🇦❤️

The good news: there are two onboard Easter egg hunts this year! The bad news: they are aboard the Queen of Surrey and the Spirit of Vancouver Island.

@kjames_2001 @ParkBoard Seems that’s the talking point being delivered, via internal memos, to the @ParkBoard commissioners who don’t like the idea of opening the pool to its intended glory. Can’t WAIT for the FOI. Yes, I will.

Apparently I’m “the only one” who wants Kits Pool fully reopened. It’s interesting how hard they are working on silencing a lone wolf, isn’t it? @ParkBoard

@ZacksJerryRig Not listed and recently cancelled, the fully EV Ford F150 Lightning, it looked like a "normal" truck, it also could benefit from the scads of aftermarket goodies the ICE F150's could have for appearance and whatnot.

@Kamscan Yep, this is completely on the controller who authorized the truck to cross the runway with an incoming aircraft…

In a transmission nearly 20 minutes later, the controller appears to blame himself. “We were dealing with an emergency earlier,” the controller said. “I messed up.” castanetkamloops.net/news/World/605…
