The one exception I've found to this would be commodity accessories - keyboards, mice, un-managed switches, etc.

As others have pointed out, there is nothing vintage or valuable, and you may have to sift through piles of trash to find them, but I have found a few new in box items for a good price.

If those still read, I would implore you to image them and upload them to the Internet Archive! Their Toshiba coverage is very incomplete.

What does the new law say?
Bill C-3, which came into force on December 15, 2025, reinstates citizenship by descent beyond the first generation. In 2009, the Conservative government had restricted access to citizenship. Canadians born abroad could therefore only pass on their Canadian citizenship if their child was born in Canada. The law was ruled unconstitutional by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.

Now, to be eligible for Canadian citizenship by descent, a person born abroad before the coming into force of Bill C-3 must have an ancestor who became a Canadian citizen on or after January 1, 1947  (the date the status of Canadian citizenship was created).

The new law also specifies that a person can become a citizen if one of their deceased parents or grandparents had obtained citizenship status upon the law's entry into force.

FYI Americans: if you had Canadian grandparents/parents: you may be Canadian

See the list of California's 200-plus billionaires who could be hit by the proposed wealth tax California has over 200 billionaires that could be hit by a proposed wealth tax. Several have recently moved assets out of the state.

At risk of being the bluesky reply guy, you're off by an order of magnitude.

Spotlighting The World Factbook as We Bid a Fond Farewell Somewhat devastating news today from the CIA: One of CIAโ€™s oldest and most recognizable intelligence publications, The World Factbook, has sunset. There's not even a hint as to why they โ€ฆ

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions!

This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

This looks like a pivot from "they're not safe" to "they're not progressive."

The reasonable thing to do is concede the safety thing before moving off of it.
