Cars make it too easy to ignore the world: "I'm in my little power bubble and I have no responsibilities to anyone else." The fact that a person on a bicycle stopped is proof to the humanizing and community-building nature of bicycles.
Pretty cool, I hope it works out for them, and other cities can do the same. The more liveable density in our core neighborhoods, the better. Downtown Calgary can be a pretty drab concrete hellscape, so hopefully the residents can add some colour and life to the place.
I've been happy with Graphene on my Pixel 7. Only con is Google Wallet doesn't work, but not a big deal for me personally. I also like that I can deny apps network access: I've been using Gboard without network access, which makes me feel a bit better in regards to privacy.
Some people have zero respect for their own lives, and by extension, any living thing. Money insidiously affects all, whether you're a have or a have not.
We must try our best to nurture and understand our world instead of "conquering" it.
Dude salivates over oil and gas. A forward-thinking Premier would be diverting fossil fuel subsidies into renewables and renovating the grid to be able to transport & sell those renewables to neighboring provinces. The prairies have ample sunlight and wind potential, and neither of these leak methane.
Nexus One was my first Android phone. I miss the trackball every day... so handy for moving the cursor through text. And it doubled as a notification LED! So sweet. Plus the removable battery, shit was awesome. I still have it in a box somewhere. I'm on a Pixel 7 now.
Lots of choices for sure. I haven't built a PC in years but I'd start with looking at the requirements for the Minecraft & Jellyfin server, maybe shoot a bit higher to future-proof the build, then browse PC part picker builds to find combos that have worked well for others?
I borrowed The Binding of Isaac for the Switch from the library a week before Covid lockdown first began. Normally video game rentals are one week. Due to the library not wanting to take returns during this time, I got to play that game for 2 months before returning it.
I eventually bought it and still play it today. But wow, I played the shit out of that game during lockdown. Some good times amidst bad times.
All this to say: libraries are AWESOME and one of our greatest public services IMO. They provide free knowledge and services to every person for free. I love my library, it is one of my happy places.
Probably real beef!
