Uhh, yes they did. There are trees that have evolved to take advantage of the aftermath of wildfires.

Apple was so successful in avoiding taxes in Europe that it is estimated that it paid in some years a tax of just 0.005% on its European profits.
And that is why stealing from a corporation is not a crime. They have deprived you, personally, of benefits and services that your government can not afford because of tax dodging. They are killing you, personally, by privatizing your health care, by opposing electrification, by using single use plastics for nearly all packaging. They are keeping you, personally, poor by suppressing wages, raising prices, and outsourcing labour to markets where slavery is not only tolerated but the norm.
You can not injure a corporation, you can not hurt it's feelings. Pirate, lie, steal, cheat, get every penny you can from the 1% and use it to help the other 99.
Carney is looking less and less like the genius economy understander I was told he was and more and more like ~~a bog standard orthodox Friedmanite.~~ politician
My employer's stock price is 400% of what it was when I was hired, my wage has gone up 20% in the same period.
I can not wait for this house of cards to collapse. I have enough food, water, and locally stored media to barter my way though the first hump and get rescued by the Europeans.
What was wrong with bicycles?
Lazy people, shitty parents.
Fly it upside down until they undo the past 6 months.
doesn’t make money
It also COSTS an incredible amount of money. Ontario has some pretty terrible, unmaintained roads, before we start hand holding BMWs so they don't get tickets we should be repairing our existing infrastructure and maybe putting in some more bike lanes.
Citation needed. They don't set them at 1 over because it's hard to prove they are that accurate, your speedo also only has to be +/-3% in Ontario.
but they punish the poor the most
They punish people who speed the most. If you make the needle on your dash point to the number that is posted on the road signs, you don't get a ticket.
People won’t speed if they cannot speed safely.
...
I get it, good road design helps stop speeding but the idea that safety even crosses the mind of people going 80 in a 60 is laughable.
The fines should be compounding, after each ticket the fine goes up 10% until people learn to just drive the fuckin limit.
Warning there are some tall-ass images in this post.
A few years ago I got mad enough at the temperature gradient in my town house that I designed and build a bunch of ESP8266 sensors to feed data into an RRD so that I could have some pretty graphs to be angry about as well. (As of this week I have also started logging stats from my UPS and server.) Using the minimum of HTML and CSS I threw those graphs, a map of the previous day's incoming network traffic, and some convenient links onto a homepage that I use on all of my devices. At a glance this tells me if the furnace/AC is working, if my server is having a fit for unknown reasons, and if the local power grid is playing it fast and loose with the voltage and frequency (which I suspect they do).
Clicking the temperature/humidity data leads to a long term data page covering 2 years of data in varying resolution. The gap last fall was when the garage sensor failed and I was waiting for Aliexpress.
There are also long term trends for the server load and UPS but they have only been logging for a few days so there is not much to look at.
Clicking the map on the home page leads to a text file containing a summary of all incoming traffic to apache and ssh. The ssh server is on a high port number and doesn't see much traffic but occasionally a persistent bot will find it.
Everything but my landing page (this animation in p5.js https://old.reddit.com/r/cellular_automata/comments/1djwjbu/waves_processingorg/ with the text "Hey this isn't where I parked my car" overlayed) is behind basic auth or better and I have push notifications set up for every ssh login (even my own), in 5 years I have never had a successful login from an attacker, this is not an invitation, have mercy.
All the data is gathered with python scripts and stored in RoundRobinDatabases or, in the case of network data, digested down into a CSV. The climate sensors respond to requests on port 80 with the temperature and humidity separated by a comma to allow for easy polling. The map is generated by looking up the IPs' information on Shodan then plotting the location data if it was present.
Absolutely none of this is the ideal solution, there are existing projects that cover literally every aspect plus a dozen extra features I could never hope to implement. I wrote as much as I could from scratch just to see if I could, it's more fun to drive a shitty car that you built than one you bought from the dealer.
Aaaand I accidentally made the UPS database only 24hrs instead of the 10years I had intended. Lucky for me rrdtool has a function to expand an rrd without wiping out the data!
Using a vinyl cutter and mini-sand blaster I made some alternate universe corporate schwag! I like the idea that someone might have swiped these during an interview before both companies had their 'accidents.'
I was given an Ender 3 Pro last week and after a few bumps managed to successfully CAD, slice and print a booster seat for my phone. The caddy as it was would grab the volume down button on my phone, this little wedge solves the issue!
Repaired some broken solder joints, sanded out the biggest scuffs and polished most of the scratches out of the screen. Oh yeah, and the paint job.
