My first mosstodon contribution. From the rainforest on the west coast of Vancouver Island.

Howling on the beach with Daniel.

How many bongs a second does that work out to?

Not sure why we got this alert here in Vancouver, but it sounds like it is not going well in Alberta tonight.

Just finished up the more detailed version of my "How To Restore Files Using Backblaze" @kevinthetechguy Patreon post.

There will also be a printable PDF version as well.

adam,

@kevinlovestech @kevinthetechguy I’ve been using them to back up my NAS, and have been happy with the price and service so far. Would love to find an equivalent that was located in Canada though.

adam,

@kevinlovestech I use the B2 cloud storage they offer, it costs $.006GB/month USD. They have a guide on their site for how to connect it to your NAS.

🗺️ “trains.fyi” – Live map of trains in. Canada and the US. Really fun to look at trains in the Montreal area, although I did spot one supposedly heading to Candiac in deepest Laval. https://trains.fyi/

adam,

@heliomass This is a really cool website! I’d love to see one that also showed freight trains as well to get an idea of overall traffic.

My favourite Christmas tradition is sending Christmas cards. Though we receive fewer after moving to Canada, my husband and I enjoy writing and sending them just as much as finding one in the mailbox. The first four are ready to go…

These ads YouTube keeps showing me score quite highly on the surrealism scale. It’s almost art really.

adam,

@heliomass I’m always bewildered by what they are trying to communicate.

I enjoy doing sermon writing prep with pen and paper—something about the feel of the nib on paper helps me slow down and stay focused. (With thanks to )

My transit app has a silly competition where you compete for bus and train points by riding various lines. And maybe it isn’t so silly because I’m obsessed with it. I’m in 4th place! I’m taking all these losers down!!

I wish there was a way to “reserve” a ride and let the drivers know how many people might be at each stop. But that would mean investing more in the public app. (a reserve system could use reliable riders to amplify system delay notifications— and have fun games)

adam,

@futurebird I’m glad I’m not the only one :)

I love this feature of the Transit app and use it on my bus route all the time.

I recently signed up to https://www.postcrossing.com/

I recommend it if you are looking for an interesting, slow mail method of sharing and receiving postcards!

It's always fun to get interesting mail that doesn't really cost much or maybe anything (if you have spare or older unused stamps especially)

adam,

@jasonnab I’ve been doing it for a few years now and really enjoy it.

In Europe, how come nobody dips all their food in ranch dressing? How do you cover up the taste of your food?

adam,

@ZachWeinersmith I was perplexed when traveling in the UK once by a sauce that was called “Cool American”. Until I realized that it was ranch, and then I was mortified.

adam, to puns

“Goodbye and thanks for all the fish,” says Kleenex to Canada. Also, props to CBC for the terrible pun in their headline—it makes me proud. https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/kleenex-canada-1.6947410

McDonald's continues to innovate with the Double Big Mac. What's next, a triple Big Mac?

adam,

@hotkey Sounds like they got their hands on the razor industry’s secret playbook.

Every time I use the cheese grater I have to wonder what is the acceptable ratio of cheese vs bits of fingers in a recipe

adam,

@hotkey I just assume that when people mention that the secret ingredient is love, they are referring to grater-related accidents.

@kboyd The new James Bond film: Austerity’s Choice

adam,

@kboyd Welcome to my lair, Mr. Bond, located at a WeWork. We will need to speak quickly because we are paying for this meeting room by the hour.

adam,

@ernie I see we’ve reached the part of the story where the snake begins to eat itself.

14.4 gigabytes later (and about a week after i started, because I kept pausing the download),
No Man's Sky is finally installed on my XBox One.

So I go to start it.

"No Man's Sky needs an update!"

So I start downloading the update.

It is 13.25 gigabytes.

Thank you for tuning in to "Our Gaming Dystopia", I'm your host, Beryllium9.

adam,

@kboyd I was thankful for our gigabit connection while downloading No Man’s Sky on my Mac this week.
