Aerosolized atomic waste, what could possibly go wrong?

Wait.

There is a documentary about licking radioactive isotopes that might apply here.

Search for “Radium City documentary”, watch, then think about that, but breathable.

Bridgewater couple left homeless after town orders them to leave RV on own land | CBC News in c/canada

This is a story where it feels like there’s more going on than is being reported.

In the absence of demonstrable safety issues surrounding the structure, on site security will not be enhanced by making the couple move to a distance. IMO the town should be held accountable for any loss to theft, or delay to completing the construction work.

As a more appropriate use of town power, how about fast tracking this octogenarian’s application and permitting, instead of evicting them and making them dependent on government, or an NGO, for housing?

Lone Star tick borne disease, geographical map of case data included in the article. Ars reporting is solid and just detailed enough, IMO.

Thank you for your app, it’s made the difference for me.

Just popped into updates (US iOS AppStore) and it’s still v0.4, do I just need to be patient?

Thanks again!

Gear on the cheap?

If you’re patient and can self-support, your local non-profits and their online stores may be useful.

It’s rare to see big gear NIB, but it does happen; have seen rack mount Cyberpower, 10 outlet, hi-watt units, IOB going for around $200+ in the last 6 months. Picked up a previous generation, 5 disk NAS for a tenth of its retail price, used.

You’re north of my border so my sites won’t work for you, but seriously, look into any Goodwill/Salvation Army type organizations, and don’t neglect local, they can be rewarding too.
