Somewhere in north eastern Ontario. To the naked eye, almost none of those colours were visible, it was mostly gray/white streaks, but they shimmered occasionally. I didn’t need any special equipment for these pics, they’re not edited either, just long exposure and night mode on a phone a few years old.

Trudeau wanted IRV because it benefits the Liberals. Everyone else wanted PR because it is fair.

Trudeau wasn’t willing to reconsider and IRV is not an upgrade over FPTP.

Forcing through IRV was not and is not a good idea.

Ah yes, so much fun to be had on the daily commute, stuck with everyone else from your sleepy suburb on a congested highway moving at glacial speeds because there’s no other option to safely and effectively get around for the people who don’t want to be there and can’t get out of your way.

Sure, you can take that thing out on weekends on country roads, mudding, camping, hauling ATVs to your favourite trails, building you or your buddy’s cottage, whatever you dream - but that still leaves 5 days of the week in traffic hell if you work in a city. Do you really want your neighbours to be left with no options to get out of your way so you can enjoy driving more on those days?

I would hope that they would be able to forecast demand reasonably well and use any extra for other products that might sell better in between holidays, like cold cuts, before it gets stuffed and packaged up only to end up in the dumpster.

Sometimes programmers wanna store one file and not care about the details related to what drive and computer it’s on. Sometimes in addition they want to make that file available to a limited number of other people or maybe make it broadly available on a private network or public on the internet.

Amazon’s cloud (AWS) offers a convenient service called Simple Storage Service (S3) to do that with a bunch of reliability and availability guarantees. Those guarantees add to the cost of the service, and not everyone needs them, so some programmers hope that competing discount cloud service providers (CSPs) will eventually offer a compatible service.

Hetzner is a discount CSP with lower guarantees, and that according to this post, released a compatible service.

Competition here is good. AWS is pretty dominant, number 1 worldwide with 33% of the CSP market and the company as a whole makes a lot of profit from being the internet’s corporate landlord.

In anglo Canada we have our own version of this that includes at least 1 oversized Canadian flag, at least 1 “FUCK 🍁 TRUDEAU” and 1 “FREEDOM” optionally also on flags or decals, something sloppily painted in white complaining about coronavirus mandates, and getting more common is something insulting Jagmeet Singh.

As somebody living in Ontario, a sizeable portion never will. There’s also a considerable overlap between them and the people who don’t understand the separation of powers in government and think they’re sticking it to Trudeau and the LPC.

Don’t get rid of the NDP BC, they’re one of the only provincial governments that actually cares and attempts to make things better.
