Chris Kozak @kozycanuck.bsky.social · 24/07/2025Trying out our new Vacuubrand oil free pumps that will replace our messy old rotary vane pumps on our glove boxes. I mean, I suppose that’s a good vacuum (it hit 0.019 mbar a minute later). 😳 180
Chris Kozak @kozycanuck.bsky.social · 15/06/2025We arrived (flew from EDI via YYZ)! There was a fire alarm at EDI. Started to evacuate, crowd stopped moving. Alarm stopped. Was told by fire wardens to keep moving. Can't move. Shops started to re-open. Asked wardens if the shop staff knew something they didn't. Anyway, sake and sushi for dinner! 130

Chris Kozak @kozycanuck.bsky.social · 21/02/2025I haven't posted in the former Twitter a while, but reading the flood of misinformation over there makes the head spin. So decided to play with this Grok AI thing and ask where it comes from. Hmm. 010
