  Its now international news. Something that Canadians paying attention have known for a while now: "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." #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. "Canada will still start paying down its debt immediately with whatever net revenues it gets, but those revenues will be smaller than before.

  So my Adobe Illustrator has started crashing for no apparent reason and I cant seem to solve it. I'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. "it was never designed to be plugged in. The batteries are entirely recharged by solar panels on the vehicle’s roof and brake regeneration. " 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&^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 "Trouble with Tribbles" and not enough "Miri".

  @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't give a shit about the issues with big algorithmic platforms. So probably zero 😔 On the other hand if they dont get it then we probably dont want them here?

  @ellenor2000 "Coal Rolling", I am familiar. When driving an #EV you sometimes get these dickheads passing you in their bloated pickup trucks and deliberately flooring it to spew "coal" once they get in front. I've been coal rolled a couple of times in central #Alberta.

  @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....🙄 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
