This is the hill I have chosen.

Hey, here's a crazy idea. Don't trip or high stick other players and you won't get penalties. That seems a bit worse than the victim of such crimes falling down, but Austin Matthews or whatever...

So he gets slew footed and high sticked and goes down. Please TSN tell me more about how this is a dive. Break it down for us. Explain what a dive is and tell us how the league could identify a dive here and what the punishment should be. Great bit of sports journalism there whoever that guy is!

Does anyone recognize this guy? Probably not.

Are the Ottawa Senators low-key the best team in professional ice hockey?

The obsession with "big bodies" and "lengthy" defensemen is truly head scratching at times. How bout are they good at playing hockey?

Could anyone write a piece of satirical fiction that was this absurd? Like what is actually happening, and can we just call BS already?

Seems like the trend here may be more the drop in free online learning content, which is feeding the LLMs. Could this lead to the starving of LLMs and a resurgence in in-person and/or pay walled learning?

As a professor most of my job is email and logging in. I get to do some teaching though and marking on my own time as a kind of hobby.

Also, kind of cool that the Sens junior team is currently beating the Montreal Canadians.

Orion @orion5a.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Pretty cool that the Ottawa Senators are playing a preseason game but TSN and Sportsnet are only airing their junior game tonight...

You expect me to put those dang things on every day AND take them off?!!

Retweet if you hate socks

Coming back after four years from an absolute train wreck season like that is definitely some next level shenanigans

Orion @orion5a.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Thinking about the sandwich wrap craze of the 90s. Those were simpler times...

Orion @orion5a.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

I don't think there was a point to it, but nice to have Sens hockey back.

Orion @orion5a.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

I was just dumbfounded at how spectacularly bad True Detective season two was. Like just embarrassing for all involved. No idea how the show survived.

Yeah but no but, it will be a Canadian this time.

Orion @orion5a.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

I've been concerned about the end of the information age since I first started experimenting with LLM's a few years ago. It may be very close, and there is no effective response, and no idea what might be next.

Once in a while I think, maybe I should log in to my Apple account, and then Apple reminds me they must have my credit card on file or I can't sign in. And then I can't remember why I even need to sign in. I don't think iTunes is even a thing anymore.

Would love to be able to take a train to Edmonton from TBay too. I really can't tell what you seem to be arguing about. I'm advocating for more mass transit options for people in TBay and NW ON, in particularly rail.

000

I would 100% take a train to Winn. or Subury from TBay instead of flying, especially with the current state of air travel. I once took VIA from Winn. to Van & it was spectacular. Of course the NW ON region could also be served by this. If VIA comes back to TBay, why not stop in Dryden, Kenora etc.?

200

But it you want to fly to say Edmonton from TBay, you have to go to Toronto or Vancouver first, or both. If you want to fly to Sudbury, with check ins, stops/lay overs and inevitable delays, you might just want to drive...

Air isn't bad if you're coming from a hub like Toronto. Many direct flights to other cities have been cut. The connection to the region is very bad though I agree. You are basically forced to rent a car if you are able.

Yup. Greyhound is long gone too. And with the state of air travel, there's a major public transportation void to be filled here. This is a national transportation need and likely requires federal support.

They need to run passenger rail through Thunder Bay again and sharing with CN is complicated. A dedicated passenger line is an interesting idea.
