Dear Edmonton businesses, a lot of your websites or socials tell if you have parking. Another item should be if you have somewhere to lockup bikes. Hopefully a good bike lockup, but I'll start small. More than a few times, myself and friends have avoided a business if it doesn't have somewhere to lockup a bike. Thank you. #yegbike #yeg #yegbusiness #cyclecommuting

In case you want to vote in Alberta's upcoming referendum, and if you are an Alberta resident, you really, really should, here is where to register for a mail in ballot. It doesn't take long to apply, but don't delay as there is a limited time to return it. Voting lines are predicted to be long, and the questions written to be confusing, so it's likely the best way.

@buffyleigh@mas.to it would not be beyond the UCP to deliberately, accidentally eff up some of the mail-in ballots to keep people from trying to use them. That'll serve to keep the in person voting lines long and cause additional people to keep from voting. Anything to keep non-seppies from voting. I'm probably getting a bit paranoid, although it's not paranoia if they really are out to get you! 😂

This is interesting. Not that I want anyone to share this information far and wide, especially where surveillance might be violating civil rights.

‘We’re encased in flames’: Video emerges of train halted in wildfire, union lambasts CN Rail

The scenes outside the window of the train are breathtaking. A wall of flame engulfs the treeline just feet away from tracks.

@AmeliasBrain @Daveography "Compared to the standard non-coloured solar panels scaling the rest of the building, the coloured panels that are part of the mural are 30 per cent less efficient depending on their hue, Mr. Tonsi says." But it will collect some power, looks cool, and prevents the building from being another grey eyesore in the downtown. The artwork is probably on the north side since it's not the biggest power generator anyway, and will keep the art from fading as fast.

@toddalio@mstdn.ca @JdeBP@mastodonapp.uk I was wondering if there might be an attempt to quash OSs like Linux as Win 11 keeps pushing away users. I don't know if this is it. It sounds like idiots who don't understand technology making policy again. However, we know corporate interests love to quash competition.

"Trump addressed the outbreak publicly for the first time on Friday when Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked when it would be safe to eat lettuce again. Trump responded that he had not been thinking about the issue and joked about whether Doocy had been eating lettuce recently."

For years I've heard the word "excelsior" attached to all sorts of grand declarations, municipalities, and even a Star Trek starship. Today I learned that the definition of this word is, " Slender, curved wood shavings used especially for packing." I'm a touch disappointed by that. #words #wordshavePower #definitions #randomthoughts

"Greg Bovino's replacement went on to plainly state that anyone who does not immediately comply with orders barked by ICE dogs can expect to be shot and killed on the spot." I don't think Americans can hope that one day these guys will be held up before some tribunal. The time to act is over a year ago.
