A house should not be an investment. One of the reasons we’re in this mess in the first place.

I’ve always preferred Greek salad without the lettuce. It just gets soggy too quickly. A lettuce-less Greek salad also keeps decently well for a day or two.

And Atmosphere.

His lack of integrity is on full display. Campaigning to “vote for change”, not accepting the change his constituents voted for, then clearly taking advantage of taxpayer funded housing really just shows the true colours of both him and the CPC.

The “screeee” of that felt marker that’s dryer than a mouthful of sand.

“Small government” and all

This is fairly common in older cities. Combined sanitary and storm sewers were the norm not too long ago, and separating them, especially in a very flat place, isn’t easy.

It should be understood that these events are fairly infrequent and only happen when the combined sewer system is overwhelmed by an intense storm. By the nature of these sewers, the discharge is quite diluted if an overflow happens, and it’s not someone just opening a valve and letting pure sewage run into the river.

The city has come a very long way in separating the systems since that 1992 letter that is referenced. Installing a new storm sewer can be quite complicated and require some creative engineering with the constraints of existing infrastructure and property, and only limited elevation to work with. For systems not yet separated, there are control weirs and sometimes huge pumping systems to help pump stormwater to decrease the chance of discharge.

It’s easy to construe this as deliberate sewage discharge to skirt regulation or save on treatment or something, but it’s a very complex issue and the city is doing what they can with the money they have. Perhaps more urgency is needed, but that bill would be put on the residents of Winnipeg. At the moment, the bigger impact on reducing nutrient load is upgrades to the NE Treatment plant, as the article mentions. I’m sure residents would prefer their tax dollars spent on the most effective measures.

People aren’t too bright 'round these parts.

Don’t let them fool you. Meta is a data broker masquerading as a social media company.

The privacy of what? An odometer reading?

It is until tire manufacturers get an incentive to sell decreased wear tires, likely at the expense of other features. Along with people putting off tire replacement even longer, this would just be asking for a significant decrease in road safety.

One would’ve thought the organization that stands for open source software to be quite democratic. Seems that may not be the case.

I feel the global economy won’t be too bad off. Likely some collateral damage, but the United States on the other hand…

There are several options, like with pictures or not. I think the complete archive is about 110 GB, but see for yourself.

This person forks.

I’ve also heard that the peppercorns lose the numbing quality fairly quickly in storage. Might be worth seeking out the freshest ones you can.

I was going to say, that list is many of the things you can get through Kiwix.

It’s self hostable and some of the resources are really quite interesting.

I’ve got a green Razr 50 ultra and I love it. Especially like that it came with a similar colour case for it.

That wood one looks really cool and I’m sure the texture would add some much needed grip.

That, and foreign trained doctors can often be thrown into situations during their Canadian training that they weren’t originally trained for. An ophthalmologist into an emergency room, for example.

There would need to be public members of the board as well or it could very quickly turn into an old boys club.
