Things at The Hudson's Bay Company (aka "The Bay") is so dire that the company is looking to liquidate the entire business unless it finds another viable way forward. Quite a sad end to the oldest company in North America as The Hudson's Bay company has been around since 1670. https://www.thestar.com/business/hudsons-bay-to-liquidate-entire-business-still-seeking-additional-capital/article_296c6889-578a-5ce2-a546-d597b2893bbd.html #HudsonsBay #TheBay #HBC #liquidation #Canad...

What a remarkable U-turn of fortunes shown in this election and absolute collapse of smaller parties. What&#39;s happening in Carleton riding is also absolutely stunning. Not only is the incumbent set to lose his seat but the staggering 91 candidates running in the riding. #Canada #CanadaVotes2025 #cdnpoli

Perfect example of every vote matters. The Quebec riding of Terrebonne flips to the Liberals after official judicial recount where the riding was won by just 1 vote. That's right, 1 vote. Turns out that 1 single vote did in fact make a difference. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/terrebone-recount-liberal-1.7532136 #election #canada #Quebec #cdnpoli #Canada

I&#39;ve owned the Steam Deck since the OLED model launched. It has been an absolute godsend as I have a little one. There isn&#39;t a ton of time to game as your free time mostly vanishes &amp; whatever time you do have, you&#39;re often exhausted. So being able to play in short bursts anywhere is amazing. If you&#39;re a gamer who has a little one with an existing Steam library, it&#39;s a must get. #SteamDeck #Steam #gaming #handheld

If someone had told me when I was in high school or uni that you can play all the original Halo games on a Linux handheld device, I&#39;d probably thought you&#39;d be full of shit and yet here we are here now on the Steam Deck playing Halo: MCC &amp; it is glorious! #Halo #HaloMCC #Linux #gaming #LinuxGaming #SteamDeck

In its NVIDIA &amp; Intel announcement, it reads: For personal computing, Intel will build and offer to the market x86 system-on-chips (SOCs) that integrate NVIDIA RTX GPU chiplets. These new x86 RTX SOCs will power a wide range of PCs that demand integration of world-class CPUs and GPUs. I really hope this doesn't mean that Intel Arc is being discontinued. We really need that 3rd player to break up the AMD/NVIDIA GPU duopoly. https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-and-intel-to-dev...

Been playing with LLMs lately on my own self-hosted Ollama instance. Very surprised to see that Intel 12th gen iGPUs can run small models relatively well. It takes time to load, but it's quite usable once loaded. #llm #ollama #intel #igpu

Been using the OnePlus 13 since January 2025, decided to boot my old Pixel 6, updated the phone to the latest version and am still quite surprised at how smooth it is. If it wasn&#39;t for the poor battery life and the awful screen, I&#39;d probably still be using it right now until it EOLs end of year. Especially with the disappointing news that OnePlus is leaving Canada &amp; the US, I might just have to go back to Pixel when the OnePlus 13 goes EOL. I will miss the SuperVOOC char...

Congratulations Spain on your big World Cup win! That was a nail biting game and an amazing goal! Very surprised how defensive Argentina played. #WorldCup #football #Spain #Argentina #WorldCup2026

For all the outrage over Apple and Google Maps changing Lake Ontario to &quot;Lake America&quot; and protesting the Americans, I find it interesting Canadians are going for MapQuest which is an American map provider instead of non-American options like TomTom or Here WeGo... #Maps #AppleMaps #GoogleMaps #MapQuest #TomTom #HereWego #LakeOntario #ElbowsUp

The funniest thing that happened today was when I was driving & wanted to listen to the Talking Cars with Consumer Reports podcast on YouTube Music and the Gemini voice command thought I wanted "Fucking Cars with Consumer Reports" lol... Took another try or 2 to get it to the right podcast. #Gemini #VoiceCommand #TalkingCars #ConsumerReports #AndroidAuto #YouTubeMusic #podcast

This is not a trade war with Canada, these are defensive measures. Oh fuck off, the Trump administration has been engaging a trade war with their closest allies since the start of his second term. Defensive my ass, you assholes started this whole thing! The fact is that the US needs Canada and throwing a hissy fit because Canada wasn't going to bend over and cave is going to hurt both Americans and Canadians because Trump wanted to play the tough guy. Canada really needs to diversify our e...

Trump threatens to increase tariffs on Canada for failing to do more in wildfire management. Seriously? Wtf? In times of need, we send help & what do we get in return? So much for being good neighbours but this is to be expected with this administration... Maybe we should stop sending help, clearly they don't appreciate it. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/us-complaints-trump-widlfire-smoke-9.7274466 #Canada #US #Wildfire #cdnpoli #uspoli
