Time to give your local addicts bus fare to Etobicoke. Let Doug deal with it in his own back yard.

I mean, if I were an opponent of the USA, I'd be celebrating. Putin and Xi accomplished the total and complete destruction of the USA by simply amplifying the worst voices. No shots fired, no military deployment. Osama bin Laden would be spinning in his grave if he weren't buried at sea.

Yup, this is a 30 minute job - dig a hole (preferably from the upwind side) beside the critter, roll it into said hole, bury it. If you want to keep critters out, have your local dude urinate around it every day. It'll be gone in the spring.

A broken voting system, plus weaponized apathy. He got 66+% of the seats in Ontario's Parliament with 17% of eligible voters choosing their local conservative candidate.

Published polls for MONTHS before the election showed he was going to win by a landslide -- so people stayed home, thinking it was pointless. They're doing it in the USA right now with slanted polls showing it's a toss-up, even though exit polls show that the majority of early voters are women.

Ha. I'm going to take a bunch of edibles and listen to music on my old school iPod and sleep 12+ hours.

The best part is that most people can't absorb a $160k judgement, and the landlord would likely have to sell the home they were renting. The person who was evicted should be first in line to be able to buy the prior home.

Can you share links to those articles? I'm finding a lot of dead ends.

Let me work on that for a second...

eMail: abusecomplaints@markmonitor.com and let them know the number is assigned to RingCentral.

Uh, first, Doug Ford was never mayor. It was his shithead junkie brother.

Second, Ontario can order Toronto to remove them, but Toronto can refuse or take them to court. I doubt the MTO is going to send a crew into downtown Toronto -- it's not their turf.

Third, if Ontario contracts a third party to do the work, they'd be setting themselves up for getting named in a lawsuit.

This whole thing is a clusterfuck, and Thuggie needs to get a new hobby.

This changes nothing. Speeds on isolated sections of the 400 highways are already well over 110km/h.

 

I used to make this offer each year in November/December on the old alien site before they lost their minds and I deleted everything and left. Over the past decade, I've digitized 100+ hours of video, and close to 1000 photos.

I can digitize the following formats:

  • 35mm negative / slides / négatif / diapositif
  • 8mm film (8mm & Super 8) (without audio)
  • VHS-C "compact" video tape (not full size VHS)
  • MiniDV video (not HD... yet)
  • 8mm Videocassette ("Sony" 8mm / Hi8 / Digital 8)
  • Audio cassettes

Reasonable limits apply - one of:

  • Up to 80 frames of 35mm negatives / slides (2-3 "rolls")
  • Up to 5 reels 8mm film
  • Up to 5 VHS-C videotapes
  • Up to 5 MiniDV cassettes
  • Up to 5 8mm videocassettes

... or some reasonable mix of each.

Output is in JPEG or MPEG4 format. For MiniDV/Digital8, I can provide the original .dv files, but they're gigantic - 20+GB/hr. 35mm slides/negatives are usually returned in plastic sheets suitable for storage in a binder.

Turnaround time is usually 72 hours.

Process: Pack up your media in a box, include your ID on Lemmy on a piece of paper, a USB stick for storage (about 1GB per hour of video). Drop off at my office in St. Henri, and pick it up in the same place a few days later.

People often ask why I do this. Freeing cherished memories from old media is a hobby of mine, I don't do this for a living, but I've accumulated a lot of equipment over the last 10 years of doing this.

EDIT: Formatting.
