I recognize climate change, but if you grow fruit for a living anywhere in Canada, you are definitely going to experience some baaaad climatic conditions occasionally. If you have survived this industry for 25 years, has there truly been a “disaster”? The Okanagan valley is a Canadian micro climate, one of the very few places where fruit trees can survive the winter. But to characterize a few incidents of crop damage as a “disaster” is not unbiased journalism.
I’m way past making a living in tech, and so far (5 months) my MacBook is delivering a very satisfactory user experience. I’m not thrilled with the “radical” changes coming to MacOs, but I don’t have that much invested in the current version to fret over it. So far the biggest controversy about the new OS is how the finder icon swapped colours. I can live with that! I considered and tried some Linux distros over the past few years, but there was too much intervention required by me, the user. The “Total Recall” vibe of Windows 11 pushed me over the line.
"additional baggage" - Does this mean owing big favors to very objectionable people?
I began using Windows in 1992. I switched to MacOS this year and I'm never going back.
Do people really go to the desert to enjoy a waterpark??

I have baked “past year” into my search engine url in Firefox. I have to remember that because sometimes the results are quite sparse!
Yes, Microsoft forum “experts”, are all about cycling through the update, uninstall, reboot, install, contact OEM. And the most frequent comment on solutions: “That does not address the user’s question.”
It won’t really matter how difficult it is to replace a battery if no manufacturer has enough spares to meet demand. Is that going to be legislated? There’s a hundred ways to make replacement inconvenient or impossible.
No gift for paywalled story. ☹️
I couldn’t agree more! Our 85 F18s and 14 Auroras came into service in the mid-1980s. The 12 Halifax-class frigates entered service in the early 1990s. Whatever works for the Army these days must be at least a decade old. And every one of these systems is starving for people to operate and maintain them.
It is delusional to think our current capabilities are anywhere near adequate to defend our 5000 km land border, much less the increasingly accessible arctic lands and waters. Literally we cannot ramp up in time to meet the need, but we have to try! Better late than never.
<shaking my head> Statistics majors! Whadda ya gonna do? But yes.
It will be decades, maybe centuries, before these areas burn again. Still, Canada is very big and mostly trees.
When you imagine the map proportionally squeezed from the sides at the top and squeezed down, the concentration of smoke becomes much worse.
