    Its now international news. Something that Canadians paying attention have known for a while now: &amp;quot;Mark Carney is mirroring the US president by radically centralizing power within his office and cabinet and taking a hatchet to dozens of laws protecting environmental, Indigenous and labour rights, all in order to enact his economic agenda.&amp;quot; #carney #cdnpoli #conservatives https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/oct/28/mark-carney-trump-davos

    OK here are five Canadian finalists for the Eurovision Song contest. Although all clearly telented, IMO they are pretty mainstream generic contemporary pop entries. That said I would vote for William Cloutier as the most interesting and fun. Maybe its just me but Ive noticed the Eurovision song contest becoming more beige over the last few years. I prefer the more edgy weird stuff. #eurovision #eurovisionSongContest #canada #music https://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/eurovision-canada-fi...

    Ok so its confirmed now, they caved. &quot;Canada will still start paying down its debt immediately with whatever net revenues it gets, but those revenues will be smaller than before. &quot; https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/gordie-how-bridge-deals-explained-compare-original-trump-carney-9.7279334 #elbowsUp #cdnpoli

    So my Adobe Illustrator has started crashing for no apparent reason and I cant seem to solve it. I&#39;m a long time user of Illustrator and love its smoothness and ability to save and edit directly in PDF format. However with this issue I decided to give the open source alternative Inkscape another look. To my surprise it has improved significantly from last time I used it. I think I will stick with it. What I like most about these programs is how you can grab a bunch of objects and scale the...

    Very cool. A 100% self sustaining transport system. &amp;quot;it was never designed to be plugged in. The batteries are entirely recharged by solar panels on the vehicle’s roof and brake regeneration. &amp;quot; https://electricautonomy.ca/automakers/recreational-evs/2026-06-12/electric-ice-explorer/ #ev #jasper

    @georgetakei@universeodon.com Is it really because #startrek90210 its woke as f&amp;^k or is it because its just so cringe? The show was super diverse yet someone they all acted like spoiled American teenagers. I have not seen good writing on that franchise since the first two seasons of discovery.. and Im a big time #StarTrek fan. It descended into goof and could not come back.. Too much &quot;Trouble with Tribbles&quot; and not enough &quot;Miri&quot;.

    @brianb@fosstodon.org The first big decision is what type of inverter to use. The link below is a good explainer. Basically the simplest is a string inverter but for this to be optimal all panels in the string need to all have the same sun exposure. ie unshaded. Its also easiest from A DIY perspective. https://www.howtogosolar.org/solar-inverter-types/

    @ZebKing I talk about it all the time and have tried to get the message out but pretty much everyone I know just doesn&#39;t give a shit about the issues with big algorithmic platforms. So probably zero πŸ˜” On the other hand if they dont get it then we probably dont want them here?

    @johannab Astonishingly accurate. One would think this should kill all doubt about the validity of climate science, but roughly half the population still thinks is bogus or not human caused. #climateChange #climateCrisis #exxon #fossilFuels

    Lots of spring sun these past few days. A perfect production profile from yesterday. The big consumption spike in the middle is the #EV charging. Our car is %100 solar powered these days! 🌞 😎 #solar #renewables

    21GW solar project moving forward in California. Nice. Sadly all the literature I can find on it get the storage specification wrong. They spec storage in GW rather than GWh. A pet peeve of mine....πŸ™„ https://www.npr.org/2026/02/26/nx-s1-5726411/farmers-california-san-joaquin-valley-solar-farm-westlands-water-district-golden-state-clean-energy #solar #cleanEnergy #renewables
