It certainly feels like more, but that’s only anecdotal and might be a result of some confirmation bias. It feels like we’re seeing more plates from out of province where I’m at, and where I’m at is very much a touristy place in Canada. It’ll be interesting to see what the tourism numbers look like after the season is through.
Will they be introducing company stores next?
Lydia, I would think.
And won’t exist after January 19, 2038, 03:14:07 UTC.
It never would have happened if they just had stronger laws preventing the dinos from having easy access to gender affirming care.
Our eyes are not perfect organs so why pretend like they are? Our eyes fail us:
Why wouldn’t we want more incoming data to account for these shortcomings? Optical-only vision-based solutions are incomplete because our eyes are incomplete. I can’t see that a car is stopped dead in the road 10 feet ahead of me in thick fog, but an advanced set of telemetry sensors can. My eyes are not better than the scores of technology we’ve built over the past few decades and I’ve been practicing with them for 46 years. Give me a helmet that includes LIDAR and infrared and night vision and sonar and telemetry from a satellite and GPS and weather tracking and god knows what else and I’ll be much less likely to rear end that car in the fog. We humans invent technology to make up for our shortcomings, so why go with the idea of “if it’s good enough for biological evolution it’s good enough for these multi-ton contraptions we have hurtling down highways next to each other several metres apart at 100 km per hour every second of every day?” It sounds ludicrous on its face. We can choke on a peanut because our swallow tube is the next to the breathing tube ffs. We can do better.
Don’t forget to park the hard drive before you power down.
The mid 1990s for me, OpenBSD came out in 1996 and Solaris was Solaris was like 1992. I was admining a Solaris SPARC station back around 1997 that had a gnarly install if I remember correctly. It was on 3.5” floppies and I still have that SPARC station and the original Solaris OS sitting in the basement collecting dust. At one point that SPARC was being used by some of us working with the PHP group to diagnose file system limits on Solaris and build PHP binaries back when I was involved in PHP development. Fun times.
My first Linux install was like Red Hat 5.2 or something and it was much nicer.
Back in the day when installing Solaris and OpenBSD and such you had to specify in numerical values the number of sectors of hard disk space you wanted to format drives with. Shit is considerably easier now with modern UNIXy systems.
He doesn’t care. He thinks those people are losers. He has no concept of what war means for the people fighting in it, it’s just an abstraction, it’s just a word that can be pulled out when conversations need to be redirected or attentions refocused. It means nothing.
I watched a tourist drink a few beer at the local inn and then just throw the cans onto the lawn and keep drinking. So basically littering. That stuck in my craw. This is my town buddy, take the 5 seconds it takes to dispose of your shitty cans of your shitty mass produced beer that you usually have back home that you made sure to let everyone is far better than the local microbrew we have here in town.
Also one time we had some tourists loudly complaining about immigrants while visiting. Those aren’t immigrants you dope, they’re citizens of our country. They were born here.
On one occasion I was driving somewhere and it was along a scenic drive and I had to stop for something. A group of aging old men on motorcycles who were doing the scenic drive told me I couldn’t park in that area because it was theirs. I said get fucked, you’re in my backyard, I’ll park wherever the fuck I want. I think they thought they were intimidating because they fancied themselves a biker gang, but biker gangs usually don’t have New Balance and rental bikes as part of their aesthetic.
Why would you say this
Myers has said the character is based on his experiences growing up in and around Toronto and started developing the character long before bringing it to SNL.
As for which Aurora, from the first movie:
My name is Wayne Campbell. I live in Aurora, Illinois, which is a suburb of Chicago. Excellent! … Okay, I still live with my parents, which I admit is both bogus and sad, but at least I’ve got an amazing cable access show, and I still know how to party.
Along with Mike Myers, we need Wayne Campbell back. Myers has said many times that Wayne was Canadian in character although the lore had to say he was from Aurora, Illinois because he needed to be American to get into SNL. Make up a new storyline that he was born in Canada to Canadian parents who moved to the states when he was young or something.
Speaking of which, we need the MacKenzie brothers back too. Bring back Great White North. Coo-ooo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-cooooo…. Coo-ooo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coooooooooo….
If Mercurial were as popular as Git I would presume that it would be rewritten in C or Rust, but who can say.
Also Subsurface, a scuba diving log program, but that one is not quite as well known.
Alpha Flight checking in.
Also Wolverine.
And technically Superman was co-created by a Canadian. Metropolis was originally inspired by Toronto, as that’s where Joe Shuster grew up. But we all know this thanks to a Heritage Moment, just like we know about brain surgery and responsible government.

Storm Thurman? Zero likes on his TikTok. That’s the real stat.
