Climate models may be missing massive carbon emissions from boreal wildfires Northern wildfires may be more dangerous for the climate than they appear. Researchers found that fires in boreal forests can burn deep into peat soils, releasing ancient carbon stored for hundreds or...

"Manitoba's NDP government is reviving a bill it says will serve as a safeguard against future governments invoking the Charter's notwithstanding clause to override the rights of protected groups, including religious minorities and [...] the 2SLGBTQ+ community."

"In the event a future government invoked the [notwithstanding] clause, it would be required to explain why to an appeal court judge."

"When you're talking about rights, [voters should not] only hear the words of the politicians [but also] expert judges weighing in too."

Star Trek is known for predicting many things.

WWIII is one I forgot about.

Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue.

YouTube video by JayIsPainting at EarthSkyArt Say Goodbye To Microsoft AI, Ads and Other Nonsense. Switch to Linux Mint!

I upgraded a 17 year old Dell laptop with just 4gb of RAM from Windows 10 to Linux Mint.

It's simple. The interface is familiar. It's free. It has no AI. It can be installed on old but still entirely useful hardware.

Just switch. It's time.

Consumer product recall

3mm Colourful Round Neodymium Magnet Balls recalled due to Ingestion hazard

Currently helping an elderly family friend figure out if an email is a scam (which it obviously is) and hey, people who make mobile email apps, it's a dark pattern to not make the email address of the sender visible without needing to click on the little arrow thing.

Just thought you should know.

What is the Costco song…?

After all was said and done
The Justice refused to release this father. I totally respect the decision. Justices/Judges have difficult yet critical roles.

At a bail hearing for a young father who is hoping to see his newborn son. I have helped him file a human rights complaint in regards to AHS Recovery Alberta refusing to offer him residential treatment. My previous posts explain why supporting petsons in custody is crucial.
