We have Remembrance Day (Nov 11, similar to Veterans Day in the US).
After that (sometimes even right after Halloween) Christmas invades.
Hey what’s up everyone. I’m one of the Reddit refugees that purged their accounts and searched the Fediverse for a new home. Happy to be here! AMA about Vancouver, the tech industry, my dog, or taking long walks outside :)

The short answer is: Because the Northern states that we share a land border with currently observe Daylight Saving Time and we’ve been waiting literally years for the States to figure their shit out.
Well, it’s a full keypair being stored: Authenticators like Bitwarden need to first provide the public key to the relying party (RP) so the RP can issue the encrypted auth challenge. The challenge then is handed back to the authenticator, user verification happens, then the challenge is signed by the private key and sent back to the RP for verification to complete the auth ceremony.

You’re thinking about “device-bound passkeys”. Bitwarden and any other third-party credential manager leverages “synced passkeys” because they don’t control the hardware.
Synced passkeys are actually called out in the FIDO Alliance’s FAQs as preferred since they more closely align with the desired replacement of traditional passwords.
It’s an interesting thought to consider that without access to centralized distribution platforms like app stores, something incredibly similar is created in its place: The so-called “super-app” (e.g. WeChat, Alipay).
How the people of Saskatchewan keep these clowns employed as their leaders is a mystery. The province is rapidly becoming the Mississippi of Canada.
All bars, all the time.
Personally I don’t see any benefits for the loops, and a couple major drawbacks IMHO:
Isn’t this the plot of The Lorax?
It’s probably less wise to assume that someone is basing their vote entirely on a single grievance they express.
Very cool to see a fediverse alternative to r/place!
Personally I wouldn’t be too dismissive upfront. Relevant part of the article:
But the more charitable — and, Shariff believes, more accurate — view could be related to the bystander effect.
The well-studied theory posits that people are less likely to offer help if there are many other people around. It could be because they think other people are better-positioned to help, or because they do not know what to do in an unfamiliar situation and look to others for cues to the acceptable social response.
Compare a car crash today vs in the years before everyone had a globally-connected computer with an attached high-definition camera in their pocket. Back then horrific car crashes still happened, and what did the majority of bystanders also do back then? Just stood and watched.
Clarity matters a lot in legal documents. Anyone else remember the case of the comma that cost millions?
You could potentially reach out to the planners of various climate-related strategic projects happening on campus. Many of them (like this one) have a component considering transportation and mobility that could be a vector for changes like what you’re proposing.
…which should hopefully be consistent in future cases.
This was my main concern. Legal rulings are built on those that came before, however they can also be reversed by higher courts.
I found this complementary CBC article on this that provides a little bit of clarity:
But part of the immediate significance of the judgment, advocates say, is that it happened in a court that’s relatively accessible; the law has been clarified that at the small-claims level, a contract for sexual services is enforceable.
That means that a sex worker who hasn’t been paid by a client can now pursue that in small claims court without having to argue the law, so long as they have the supporting facts.
“Now they can bring this judgment and put it on the judges desk and say, ‘here it is, there’s precedent for it; I want my judgment,’” said Rose.
Note that this is a quote by the plaintiff’s lawyer (Jessica Rose). I’m obviously no lawyer myself but I would read this as precedent-setting for the Small Claims Court of Nova Scotia, with the caveat that other provinces’ small claims courts and all higher courts are still lacking their own ruling here. Ultimately the law itself needs to be tested in higher courts, which is also referenced in the article:
In 2021, the alliance sued the federal and Ontario provincial governments, arguing that the conditions of criminalization allow exploitation to flourish. That case had its first hearing in October 2022, and is awaiting a judgment. If successful, it could result in the law being struck down, paving the path to full decriminalization of sex work.
Don’t get me wrong, this is a win and worthy of setting a legal precedent, however I am skeptical of the first line in the article:
Earlier this year in Halifax, a former sex worker won a precedent-setting case.
If this was Small Claims court, are there examples of rulings from this court actually setting precedent for other courts (e.g. Lower or Superior courts)?
They act like flying taxis then they should be treated as such.
You probably need a general “electronics repair” shop: A place that can source parts & tools, and has staff that can break down, solder, and rebuild things with circuit boards.
Put that into Google Maps for some nearby options. A lot will advertise their services in the context of more general home appliances like TVs or PCs. Give them a call first to check if they have the parts and knowledge for your Switch. If they don’t, ask if they know someone who does. I suspect the hobby electronics DIY space around Vancouver is probably fairly close-knit.
Doc saw his opportunity to diversify out and pursue his lifelong desire to be a preacher 😂
Modern social media: Feed algorithm bots curating and serving up bot-created content for other bots to create fake engagement on so that advertising bots can find the real humans that still exist in the desolate wastelands and market them bot-created ads.
