bflmouse.bsky.social @bflmouse.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Those wind turbines are mind boggling pieces of engineering for many reasons. Those 'tiny' hubs that rotate to face the wind are the size of a bus! At least in the area I'm in, the underground foundation is a concrete slab a couple of metres thick and about the same diameter as the blade circle! 000
bflmouse.bsky.social @bflmouse.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Personally, I knew the undocumented instructions were there, but never bothered to use them. The rare case where one of them was useful to me was more than outweighed by the hassle of getting my assembler to accept them. 041

bflmouse.bsky.social @bflmouse.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Car dealerships are not doing illegal modifications. Ebike shops are. That said, there should be speed limiters on cars Even better would be to have the cars automatically limit the speed to whatever the speed limit is where they are driving. That way 100K in a 40K school zone would be impossible. 120
bflmouse.bsky.social @bflmouse.bsky.social · 02/10/2026GO is not 'adjusting' service on the Kitchener line. They're shutting it down. The short stretch that isn't shut down completely is pretty much useless as Brampton Transit and the TTC provide better alternatives for most people. 001

bflmouse.bsky.social @bflmouse.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The 2025 figure for Canada in that chart was around 16 million. At the end of the chart, the number is down to under 8 million. That looks to me like tourism to the USA is down by a whole lot more than just 2 million. If that track keeps going, tourism to the USA might get down _to_ 2 million! 011
