but it has these moments that make you either reflect or maybe encourage you to appreciate the absolute beauty and magic in the potential of our existence.

If you're open to it, this might just stick with you for the rest of your days.

anticipation of the moment you were sure was about to happen made up for awkwardness. It will make you smile, unabashedly even, even in the face of tragedy.

And those moments were sublime. It's not the best movie you'll ever see,

There is no mistaking the style of Stephen King in the story, but the fleshing out of the original short story by horror maestro Mike Flanagan is a defining point in his career to be sure. The pacing may not have been quite perfect but the

Initially you would be led to believe that Hiddleston is the star of the film, but in reality it is filled with a night sky full of stars, each glowing in their own special way and the element that it adds to its charm is not to be understated.

Life of Chuck

I missed the sneak preview of this a few weeks ago but as soon as I saw it was coming to the Hyland Cinema on its opening day I picked up a ticket (and renewed my membership!)

10,000+ charge cycles, comparable energy density to Lithium and fully functional in temperature ranges of -40C to +70C.

In some twisted way, I feel like it's some attempt at making the USA into... Cuba?

Just thinking about any data centers in Minnesota, Michigan and New York, especially those doing power hungry workloads in AI trying to migrate over to datacenters with cheaper power.

Taxpayers pay to build resources for the long game, not necessarily for profit, but as a benefit to society overall. To sell them off, usually at a loss, for short term gain is not illogical and insulting. Especially when they then launch the same initiative once the loss has been felt.

Been thinking hard the last little while about why I never vote Conservative provincially or federally despite sometimes knowing people who are running. I think the common thread I've seen that I can never let go of is how they constantly take things paid for by the public and sell them off.

Still not sure I understand how the keywords work. Are they publicly viewable or only to the person who makes the feed?

The new Captain America comes out soon in which Harrison Ford plays the US President who just so happens to turn into a red version of The Hulk. At least in the comics his rage doesn't make him stronger, but instead causes him to radiate heat.

In my adult life, there has been such a truck come through my neighbourhood but far too often I wasn't prepared for its passing.

Interesting. I've become very selective of the media I purchase anymore and its usually a combination of something that has really moved me where I'm directly supporting the creator with the increased opportunity to share with others

At a time when we need our premier's eye to be on the ball he instead thinks it's the time for the distraction of an election. To use the premise that "he needs the mandate of the vote" now, when it's never mattered to him before is pretty ridiculous
