Would you believe Oracle OCI? They have an always free tier, as in you never pay. You need a valid regular credit card. At first I thought it was for a slow x86 instance, but it includes Arm hours equivalent to 4 cores, 24 GB RAM, 10TB of transfer a month, I think 200GB storage. Divide it up for an nginx reverse proxy in front of it, or HA Proxy if you are feeling ambitious.

Consistency between devices. Android isn't android, everyone mucks with it, especially Samsung.

TBF, Motorola is a bit misleading. Nothing against the product, (I love my RAZR), but they were basically diminished to a brand-name that is now owned by Lenovo.

Rebates shouldn't be on vehicles, but on charging infrastructure. The current infrastructure is woefully inadequate, and the infrastructure will last many decades, a car lasts maybe 1 to 2 decades.
Electric charging being cheaper than fuel should be the primary financial incentive. HOV Lane access, and other benefits should be enough to bolster demand.
The subsidies on luxury vehicles, Tesla's specifically, were a harmful policy mistake that have given idiots talking points that will be used years from now.

VIC-20 still going strong in 2025 with a MegaCart from Denial. I think my parents bought it for me in 1983. 42 years.. crazy.

Trump definitely has visions, but TACO!

My work PC has W11. Microsoft ruined the start menu. I removed all the icons off the Start menu as it is simply useless and has zero practical functional except to shutdown the PC because Shutdown can't be found with search.

Golden dome, regardless of what it is, whether upgraded NORAD monitoring or an actual shield would be magnitudes more expensive without Canada's cooperation.

Another 5-D chess move. The administration's strategy is so sophisticated, no one will ever figure it out!

No one knows, but here is a click bait article headline for some ad impressions!

I think this is misleading. The exchange from with most currencies with CAD look stable.

The US dollar is dropping against basically everything and is how the administration knows they are winning.

They were just waiting for Microsoft to add advertisements to Windows so they can do the same. Now it can be a new revenue channel and will see the light of day.

The Windows Webcam camera settings, when I finally find them on Windows 11 to control pan and zoom, have been the same for 25 years, maybe 30. The thing is, it used to be easy to find the controls, but they keep making Windows slower & harder to use. It’s such a rat nest.

 

Who says the government isn’t efficient?

 

Pierre Polievre's own uncle-in-law crossed Roxham Road on foot in 2018.

After failing to get his refugee claim approved, he appears to have lived undocumented in Canada with a deportation order in his name. 

According to documents obtained by The Breach, Poilievre’s relative—the uncle of his wife, Anaida Poilievre—received help from her and an undisclosed MP’s office in 2021 in his efforts to get permanent residency.

WTH?!?
