For a decade, home prices, rent prices, assaults and overdose deaths generally went up in Vancouver, at a fairly rapid rate.
But that's no longer the case, and it's an overall trendline that's really worth monitoring.

The Office brand is arguably Microsoft's most important - possibly more than Windows itself. To rename it after this slop generator is staggeringly foolish. Honestly, it's pushed me to spending more and more time in Linux and MacOS lately to escape this Copilot push.
Microsoft is so fucking stupid.
Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App
I'm not joking

I used to hate Christmas in Vancouver because I grew up in Ottawa where December is usually snowy. Here, it's usually raining. But now I think it's kind of charming that everyone here still does Christmas activities in the rain because they're so determined to have a good time.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

I'm pretty sure that at this point in time, the remaining opposition to renewables are nothing but the tantrums of those with interest in fossil fuels and/or could not get the logic of "there's no cost to obtaining the fuel" to sink into the brain.

Rob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.

The Roottrees are Dead had a bit of a moment this year so you've probably heard of it already, but the attention is well-earned. A document exploration game that spans an entire century of a family's history and drama that really captures that research feel. It's also got a great tiered hint system.
The Roottrees are Dead on Steam
A genealogical mystery straight out of 1998. Scour the early Internet for clues, uncover hidden connections, and piece together the family tree behind the secretive Roottree Corporation.
