I actually lived for a short while in Hintonburg and though it was pretty walkable. Looking at availability right now its been hard to find anything in that area that has 2 or more bedrooms and is less than 3k a month. Glebe & Westboro also seems like they would be great but I'm not seeing a lot of availability :/

How long does it take you to walk to a grocery store? I'm looking on google maps and it only really looks like there are the stores on bank st you could walk to and it honestly doesn't seem like that great of walk. Like most of the neighbourhood is > 30 minute walk to them. Are there any other stores nearby you can walk to < 20 minutes?

 

Hello! My wife and I are currently living in Spain but are going to have a kid soon and looking to move back closer to my family in Ottawa. Ideally we would like to live some place walkable and are looking for some advice on neighbourhoods in Ottawa to explore. My family is in Carlington near Carling & Merivale and I’m not a huge fan on that area, Carling isn’t that pleasnt to walk around and the closest grocery store is Food Basics which isn’t that far away but involves walking around Carling and the 417 exit to get to.

I got some mixed advice about lower town and center town. I’ve heard that they are generally walkable but can be sketchy. Is this true in general? For example is lower town sketchy all over or just around Rideau? Like if we found a place south of Laurier would it be sketchy over there?

Are there other neighborhoods you’d recommend in the city that are walkable? I think the big things for me would be, being able to walk to a grocery store that you can get most of what you need, a pharmacy, and having decent access to transit. We’ll have a car but I really don’t enjoy driving and would like to avoid having to drive on daily basis.

I'm not sure if you can do it without authenticating on the remote. Have you seen sshuttle? Maybe you can run that on the remote to connect to the local machine. If the issue is that the remote "can't see" the local machine to ssh into it then you could try something like reverse tunnel the ssh port to the remote, and then use sshuttle to connect to the local port that is forwarding traffic.

Very exciting for another Blendo Game! Very much have been looking forward to skin deep releasing. Also very happy it will have steam deck / linux support 😁

Oh wow, this looks interesting! My friends and I started playing Valheim again recently and this looks like it might scratch the same itch!

off topic but I wonder where that radar picture came from that it has the canary islands on them 😅

Would be really happy if Canada was a future EU member 🤞 but this doesn't instill much confidence https://www.politico.eu/article/canadians-want-join-european-union-will-never-happen-paula-pinho/ 😔

How do you search for games in different languages on Itch?

Are you talking about Freedesktop.org selfhosted gitlab instance? They have a week of planned maintenance. I don't think gitlab's main gitlab.com instance is going down for week.

100% agree, would like to see more stuff in this space. Do you have any links to more "enbryonic tools". I recall seeing another tool awhile ago that I tested (can't remember the name) that worked a bit like LingQ. It would run a webserver and you could read links through it and mark words you didn't understand. I couldn't really get into a flow using it as tool to learn languages.

Probably? I just have it setup to always be running in the background on my devices. So if it detects a file change to my sync folder that gets sent to all other devices currently connected. I use global sync so as long as the device has an internet connection or is on the same local network it should be able to sync.

There is an API to interface with syncthing daemon running on your computer https://docs.syncthing.net/dev/rest.html so if you wrote a program to track the nfc action and interface with that API I think you probably could.

No problem! I personally use syncthing to keep my password database synced between my phone, laptop, and desktop. As well as to keep some important files backed up between different devices that way if my hdd or something happens to one of the devices I have backup on the other ones.
