I admit I clicked on this story because I thought the thumbnail was a picture of moonshark working on electronics.

Thanks for clearing that up. Well then, I am okay with this as an approach, I would even go so far as to applaud it. It removes the ability to offset risk of non-compliance of law by splitting private revenue sources into separate corporate entities and so then the fine is more likely to have an...

Okay am I understanding this right? The EU is defining X as the provider not in compliance with EU law and Musk as the "entity" responsible for ensuring X (the provider) is in compliance. Instead of focusing their fine on the provider they are considering focusing the fine on the entity (Musk)...

Admittedly, this transition has been more seamless for me than previous ones. My main suggestion is that in 6 months' time, or thereabouts, reach out again to the community specifically about the site design, either through an article or survey. At that time certainly for myself and perhaps the...

As a cyclist commuter, it would provide me very little comfort to know that in the event I get splattered across the front of an overly large grill, at least that person will be judged more harshly by the law because of their "choice" of vehicle. I prefer actions by the government that helps to...

Thanks for expanding my vocabulary Jonathan. Opprobrium - a good word to describe the growing public sentiment for the large truck aesthetic. I am going to put that one in my little box of gems words I keep for sneaking into reports.

4 out of the 6 supplier I got quotes from were willing to sell the heat pump on its own, it tends to remove a $500 to $800 install discount. You just need to ask. We were going for the combo because our existing furnace was 25 years old and has an efficiency rating of 70% compared to the 96% to...

I too live in the frigid Canadian prairies. I was looking into getting a heat pump as part of the greener homes grant last summer. Every supplier sold a gas furnace / heat pump combo as the default offering. You'd need to ask if you wanted stray away from that by say going to electric backup...

I had the chance to swap out a dead fan and re-paste my friends PS4 last year. Surprisingly simple affair. The ps4 I worked on appeared pretty robust and accessible. Given his tv room shares an open door with his laundry room and the amount of lint I found in that ps4. I was frankly surprised it...

I've been playing it through it's "relaxing mode" and have found it to be just that. Nature is friendly, the neighbors won't bother you if you don't bother them and I can focus on watching the little people haul logs around town with ample food in warehouse and firewood in the hearths. My...

I think you underestimate the amount of resources being consumed and then thrown away into the air to heat and power your house. Several studies say programable thermostats such as the one in the article can reduce your household energy consumption 5 - 8%. The US DOE is so bold as to say 10%. In...

Thanks for showcasing this game. I have been migrating slowly to lower stakes simpler games as life's demands take up most of my available time and mental space. It is nice to find new stuff in the city builder space which has always been my favorite genre. This one looks like a real treat. A...

Well color me pleasantly surprised to hear about this investment in the Canadian sector. The past Honda Canada CEO Dave Gardner and even more so the current CEO Jean Marc Leclerc (again Honda Canada specifically) have frequently made statements against electric vehicles and small vehicles. In my...

If you go to the announcement and read through it, you'll see that while this proposed law fits in with an overall initiative to combat abuse towards "girls and woman" there is enough verbiage in there to make it clear that the scope of the law is "people". Generally, this law will apply to...

Quebec is also a city in Quebec. Edit: It seems it is common for people to call it the City of Quebec or Ville du Quebec so your confusion is fair or at least not unique.

Off-topic but from the article "Chinese and Japanese digital interfaces thrive in clutter". That piqued my interest. Like are their sites signifcantly different looking then ours? Apps too? Anyone got any good examples? The idea that a different culture could have a radically different looking...

Well add me to this list of arsians sniffing their s-pens after reading this article. I can first start smelling it from about 6 cm beneath my nose.

Sorry if I missed the link in the article but just in case I wanted to post to the source on the Junocam website itself (verses X) Pj58 Io Image by Bjorn The juno page is a real treasure. The links are straightforward so you can easily see the other work submitted by Bjorn Jonsson, other images...

I think they may have gotten those Hubble/Webb overlay shots from here: https://webbtelescope.org/contents/media/images/2024/105/01HM9KGGP1EWFFSRRSKR8NZGWZ?news=true

When the lava dyke was first forming, I found this 3d visual to be very impressive to look at. It was a great way to visualize just what was going on down below. The visual has gotten a bit less clear as parts have started to cool and shift around a bit more but still a cool view. Presently...
