B.C. to end time changes, adopt year-round daylight time | CBC News March 8 will be the last time British Columbians have to change their clocks, B.C. Premier David Eby announced Monday.

More than 80% of people consistently cited their preference for permanent daylight savings in polls, there’s a realm of data that says it supports better outcomes, and it’s very fun when a government can say “we control how time works”.

About a slam dunk win as you can get these days.

So hyped. Thanks for making more episodes. I learn a ton each time.

Opinion: Right turns on red — it’s time for a change Over the past two years in Winnipeg, 25 pedestrians or cyclists have been killed in vehicle collisions.

My column today: If we want neighbourhoods to be walkable and vibrant, people need to feel safe walking and biking. The 1970’s law allowing right turns on red lights prioritizes vehicles over safety. Many cities are now considering banning it in urban areas. www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/anal...

They won’t let you take pictures inside??

A four panel cartoon of a small bird on a branch; the original images are from falseknees.com Panel 1: "mov rax, rbx" Panel 2: "add rax, rcx" Another speech bubble appears, covering that one that says: "HELLO IT'S ME THE KEYBOARD" Panel 3: A corvid appears next to the small bird; the new speech bubbles belong to it. It says "I HAVE AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE" Panel 4: A closeup of the small bird with a frustrated look on its face. The corvid's speech bubble behind it reads, simply, "E".

Saw this on Mastodon, never don't repost.

But can it help you install Firefox? That’s the only use for Edge I’ve ever had 🙃

I wish the city/province would put less energy into these and more energy into adopting an Idaho stop law.

But, if they are separated roadways (in the sense that they wouldn't legally but still should stop for flashing school bus lights) then they make sense

people ask me why i love winter so much, in WINNIPEG nonetheless, and this is why 😍

A person in a bright yellow jacket walking on the sidewalk through the snow.

A number of bicycles covered in snow in front of a pharmacie

People walking outside in winter jackets through the snow with a fruit and vegtable market in the background.

Another street scape with a winding toad, snow, tire tracks, and people all covered in snow.

It's snowing and wonderful in Paris today! Snapped some good ones wandering to and from the grocery store.

Grants for Minnesota businesses to purchase commercial e-bikes? Love to see it.

Too bad Winnipeg isn't a winter city like... *checks notes*... Minneapolis. That would never work here.

The "five golden rings" in the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas" probably refers to common ring-necked pheasants rather than jewelry. Doesn't makes sense for the true love to go "bird", "bird", "bird", "bird", "jewelery", "bird".

It also has a "Cargo Bikes Only" section. 😍

Two decorative light-up goose lawn ornaments wearing red plaid scarves stand nearly buried in deep snow during a blizzard, with only their heads and upper necks visible above the snow line. Behind them, a row of bare brown bushes or shrubs are also heavily snow-covered. Large snowflakes are actively falling, creating a white-out effect against the overcast sky. The geese appear to be comically overwhelmed by the snowfall.

Unrelated, here’s a post-blizzard photo of my winter lawn decorations

Overhead in the diner booth: Yeah, I’ve got an appointment to put my winter tires on next week

7am news: Buses are cancelled but school is open.
Us: Okay, I guess we're bundling up and walking.
8am news: Nvm, school is cancelled.
Us: Uhhhh.....

We're only a 500m walk to school, but now we're scrambling for childcare.

Illustration of pedestrian approaching three crossings. A shows a road with a sidewalk on either side but no markings. B shows a road with a sidewalk on either side joined by a painted crosswalk. C shows a road with a sidewalk on either side joined by a pedestrian corridor with lit indicator lights.

Pop quiz: as a driver, to which of these pedestrians are you required to yield?

More full buses pass waiting riders after Winnipeg Transit network overhaul, new data says | CBC News When Winnipeg Transit rolled out its redesigned route network this summer, the city promised faster, more frequent and more efficient service, but new data shows many riders are instead watching full ...

We built a network that was meant to sacrifice some convenience and proximity for frequent service, and then Mayor Gillingham and Councillor Lukes didn’t deliver frequent service. Maybe if they weren’t so focused on suburban road expansion they could fund the damn bus.

Winter biking (& all biking) is not “all or nothing.”

Bike when it works for you.
Walk/take transit/drive when it doesn’t.

Use the bike & weather gear you have.
Add/upgrade as you see fit & can afford.

You may be surprised at what works.

Biking around in the snow is pretty freaking excellent. I blame @pattybikes.com for the fun I’m having. #bikewpg

I like Max as a gracious loser.

He should lose more often. It suits him. #F1

Now we wait for the plank wear measurements #F1

Where do the unused #F1 “${DRIVER} Champion 2025” shirts go to?

Do they create a room of shame for that driver?

How are y'all doing the live location updates? I love that so much. Have you written it up somewhere?

Love seeing a #treebybike pop up on my timeline

The RadWagon 4 has weird tire dimensions (22x3), so it's hard to find studded tires for them and I don't want to go through the work of studding them myself. These work really well!

I'll put them on the back tire too, but with the skirt guard and the big boxes, it's a little trickier on my bike than on most others. I didn't have enough time this morning to slip them on 🫤
