Fall is official -- we hit single digits! It was 9° C overnight. (That's 50°F to USians). My favourite season.

People are worried about electricity bills, water use, and what these massive facilities mean for their communities. Calling it a Chinese plot doesn’t make those concerns disappear.

Despite being a famous Hollywood star if you want to know what sort of person DAVID NIVEN was, the largest wreath at his funeral was from the Porters at Heathrow Airport. It read: “To the finest gentleman who ever walked through these halls. He made a Porter feel like a King.”

Apple Intelligence Can Use Up to 14GB. Here’s How to Turn It Off
Apple Intelligence is built into the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS, macOS and watchOS, but you don’t have to leave it enabled. For some users, Apple Intelligence may simply feel less essential now. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Meta’s Muse and a growing number of AI agents are all easily accessible through standalone apps and the web, giving users plenty of alternatives without relying on Apple Intelligence. There’s also a more practical reason to switch it off: storage space. According to Apple’s support documentation, Apple Intelligence can require up to 14GB of storage on newer supported iPhone, iPad and Mac models.

The CRTC Just Changed How Internet Plans Are Sold in Canada
The CRTC is bringing in new rules that should make it easier for Canadians to compare internet plans and understand what they are actually paying for. The regulator said Thursday that internet providers will need to give customers clearer and more consistent information when advertising their plans. That includes showing the internet speeds customers can expect during the busiest times of day, instead of only advertising speeds listed as “up to.” How many times have you seen the "up to" speed, only to see your speed at home far slower than advertised?

Barnes and Noble is running a pre-order special on SAVED BY THE SPELL (contemporary/AU fantasy standalone) over the 9th to the 11th of September. (Because I have a tenuous grasp on the date, I totally forgot to mention this yesterday.)
On the right, the cover of SAVED BY THE SPELL, a classroom with an eye looking out of the blackboard and a bunch of swirly magiky stuff. Some of the desks are warped. There's an apple on the teacher's desk. No one actually gives her an apple in the book, but...visual shorthand. The text across the bottom of the book reads, author of Direct Descendant. 

Text reads: Barnes and Noble preorder sale. Discounts starting at 25% off. for B&N Premium and Reward members. With code PREORDER25 some exclusions may apply.
