Glad you are okay. I got out yesterday too and the scenes of the city were just an absolute mess. Glad the cell towers are back online, so many people I saw yesterday were just trying to find a spec of reception to get even a single text out to their loved ones to let them know they were still alive.

It's going to take quite some time to repair all the damage and get power back up, but I saw the National Guard rolling in as we left with tree chippers πŸ™

Opinion? Try again. It's called slander.

Who is forcing you to wear a mask in this scenario?

You do realize Vancouver has rioted 2 out of 3 times after losing the cup on game 7?

I happily use Fedora for workstation purposes but hate to admit I use it, so it's an accurate critique. It's a great operating system though, naming aside.

You have some steady hands.. can't see any tracing on the stars

My husky got sprayed once on a late night walk. She was so confused -- she just wanted to be friends!

She got two jets: one in the facial area and another on her rump. The stuff near her face came out relatively quickly (think a timeline of months), whereas the spray on her butt really got the chance to soak in to her double coat. It would still smell ~5 years later if she got wet, just absurd staying power.

It did eventually fade or, at the very least, became less distinguishable from the general smell of wet dog

It literally was in the opening paragraph. Previous years keynotes are available in a playlist here, so I assume they'll do the same for this year's keynotes as well. The event only just ended yesterday.

Open Source Summit 2024 keynotes. I don't think any of the recordings are available yet.

The malicious code is only thought to have affected deb/rpm packaging (i.e the backdoor only included itself with those packaging methods). Additionally, arch doesn't link ssh against liblzma which means this specific vulnerability wasn't applicable to arch. Arch may have still been vulnerable in other ways, but this specific vulnerability targeted deb/rpm distros

I hope you're right and this isn't about them getting ready to DRM brush handles to brush heads. Sonicare brush heads are ridiculously overpriced compared to the knock offs

Yeah, same thing happened to us. Landlord said he had at least 5 years. After 2 he starts grumbling that our rent is too low but he can't increase it to the level he wants to (BC rent control). We say, oh that's too bad.

After 3 years he decides he's done being a landlord and wants to sell the apartment and tells us he's going to kick us out and sell the place. We fight. BC has a policy that the landlord must actually live in the unit for at least 6 months in order to evict a current tenant and he's shown us he doesn't intend to do so.

There is more fighting, he finally consults a lawyer (he didn't seem to be aware of the law). He finally understands what he must do to evict us and we started losing ground. End of story we negotiated him for extra money, getting evicted on the same date and decided it was better than walking away empty handed.
