Forget solar power. I need a way to convert all my deep sighs into electricity or something useful.

Made a typo in a Google search and I was so confused by my results which were all about being disappointed with dating apps. Turns out there’s a huge difference between “reddit paint matching” & “reddit aint matching”

Do superstitious people knock on wood to avoid jinxing themselves when they’ve typed a message to someone? Or is it strictly reserved for speech?

Wow these AC hose insulators actually work! Recommend!

Scratch building myself a new sturdy A/C sliding door vent out of wood after half assing them for the last couple years. This bit will slot into the main full-height chunk. (First time using my Dremel’s router attachments.)

Coworker: “Are you sure what you said is correct? I asked ChatGPT and it said the opposite. Can you double-check?” Me: “The A.I. is wrong. Here’s screenshot proof that I’m right.” Interesting times we live in.

Reacquired the first watch I ever owned. Like everything from childhood it’s so much smaller than I remembered. 😅

Some billionaire building themselves an artificial cliff face/bat cave:

Seemed like a good Canada Day’ey activity to do. 🇨🇦

I looked up those little ovens that Starbucks uses for their breakfast sandwiches and they’re $10K+ machines. 🤯

Help. I’ve had this stuck in my head for the last 3-4 days.

Do cans of worms have an expiry date? I think you have to open them eventually.

Memory Lane:

Tip: This actually works quite well in ChatGPT: #chatgpt #canada #ai

I’ve tested a LOT of cables and chargers for iPhone charging with both hardware and software and 90% of stuff was garbage. This is the best bang for the buck combo I’ve found. (Jay recommends)

Over the weekend I fell down a rabbit hole and basically ended up researching everything to do with Robert Pickton. I realize now that I didn’t know a lot previously. My question now is What happened to (likely accomplice) Pat Casanova? Did he die of cancer? Still walking around free?

Ransomware group says it will release stolen London Drugs data if it doesn't get $25M in 48 hourswww.timescolonist.com Shawnigan Lake-based threat analyst Brett Callow said his cybersecurity company was aware of the demand “almost immediately” due to trackers on the dark net

Today is a [“Hold off on everything as my kid will be designing the logo for our firm”] kind of day.

Pretty impressed with how well the iPhone 15 Pro Max does with night shots. These were taken on the Seabus through glass and then ever so slightly edited. First 2 were the from North Van side.

At a friend’s place to have a #maythe4thbewithyou marathon watch party in his fancy schmancy home theatre room.

How does one tell a next door neighbor “I don’t mind your dog’s barking anywhere near as much as I mind your screaming at him to ‘SHUT UP!’ which sounds like you’re in my suite.”? Asking for myself.

First time I’ve ever seen this pop-up patreon style donation prompt out in the wild. It’s tied to the reader’s Google account/Google Pay/Credit Card. Pretty slick in how frictionless it makes for readers to donate securely.

Easy to point and laugh but I just see a bunch of rich people being made further angry and further radicalized.

I have HomePod speakers with Siri built-in and the fact that I can’t say aloud “Hey Siri, turn on my ringer.” annoys me.
