This was the Aberfoyle Spring plant, which is what it was sometimes called (but isn't mentioned in the Narwhal article).

Also, despite the title, the company doesn't say that the plant is closing - the company is selling it. And since it's already changed hands multiple times, I don't see why the plant would actually close. The new owner will just get a new license from our "business friendly" provincial government.

Edit: this is why I can't take the Tyee, Narwhal, Rabble, and all these off-brand journalism sites seriously

I'm talking about accessing the Tesla from the outside. It's not obvious how you do that, and I've been picked up by several Teslas that were Ubers. (IIRC isn't there something like the handles don't pop out if the doors are locked too? I just remember that I've struggled with this)

If there was a burning car and I had to open your Tesla's door from the outside to save you, you're dead because I wouldn't be able to figure out how to use the handle, regardless of whether the thing was still powered or not.

Whisper is the way to go for speech to text (edit: had that backwards). Whisper.cpp is decently fast too: https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp/releases/tag/v1.7.1 Get the binaries from the link that's on that page (god GitHub usability sucks)

There was basically no opposition, that's how. People were sick of the Liberals and their new leader was hide-and-seek champ, and nobody really takes the NDP seriously in Ontario.

This makes no fucking sense - They just finished putting these bike lanes in on big stretches of Bloor and University. These streets are always under construction, it makes no sense to just undo years of work. Did people not drive here before the bike lanes? Cyclists are still going to use these streets and be veering into traffic, blocking that supposed second lane. The second was always blocked with parked cars on Bloor anyways. The bike lane made driving easier and cycling way safer. It was win-win.

The result is going to be driving is going to be way worse on these streets and cyclists are going to die because of this decision. It's also hugely regressive. You should not be driving across Bloor or down Yonge or University to traverse these streets, because there's literally subways under all of three of them.

It's just such piss poor management. The more decisions I see Doug Ford make, the more I see the image of that stupid fucking Ferris wheel Rob Ford wanted to put on our waterfront. Dumb ideas run in the family, apparently.

edit: we have to elect smarter people who aren't going to play these stupid culture wars games and waste our own money doing it. Doug Ford's strategy here is to set up a fight with Olivia Chow in preparation for an early election next year, because he knows the "surburbs vs. Toronto elites" narrative plays well with his base. It remains to be seen if the city can/will meaningfully fight back against this or if our mayor is just going to give us lip service, because she still benefits from this conflict by being on the other side politically.

I want to second Pelican for Python. Really easy to set up and get going. No need to learn a complicated templating language (it's jinja2, which is what everything uses).

yeah, but it'll be hard to make those Y Combinator vultures rich at that price

News at 11 - next month is November, and you won't believe what happens after that! Stay tuned for more.

This is an A+ meme

This is such good politics and such bad governance.

That's the bare minimum requirements needed to live in Toronto as a human, lol
