I'm probably not the best person to ask. I've never lived in Regina, but from visiting it's similar to Saskatoon, except it has a man-made lake instead of a nice river valley. It's a nice enough city, but it's also clearly a government town. As for London, I've never been. I have family there, and part of my family moved to Saskatchewan from London over 100 years ago.

Rural Ontario is Canada's "South". Not Alberta. Not Saskatchewan, rural Ontario.

Cassy Jones from the 80s-tastic Ninja Turtles movie said it best: "You have to know what a crumpet is to understand cricket".

Loved me my '86 Ford Ranger. 4 cylinder, 5 speed, am radio, jump seats in the back, extended box. Cost C$3000 in 1998.

My dad bought a 2021 Ranger. It's bigger than the F-150 from 1998. Insanity.

Comparing the federal energy mix for Saskatchewan in 2019, to SaskPower's claims for 2023, we're going in the right direction with respect to coal. I don't expect Moe's SaskParty to do much better than that, unfortunately. Hopefully nuclear and wind take off more, or we're more willing to import hydro from Manitoba, even at a higher cost.

Though reading that closer, SaskPower's claims for hydro include imports (it's unspecified from where, but the only place that makes sense is Manitoba), while the federal paper is only generating capacity, no imports. I wonder what the mix including imports was in 2019.

I'd go with a Coleman camp fuel stove, but I also go winter camping when propane doesn't work so well.

I wonder if there's a warning for that in Clang or GCC. That seems like something I'd want, but also want it to be 100% opt-in. Not even enabled with -Wall or -Wextra.

The second rule of mechanical keyboards is you don't spend money to buy a mechanical keyboard. You spend more money to build a mechanical keyboard.

I'm a green sadist. If my co-workers aren't complaining then my keyboard's not loud enough.

Old English is a rather precise language that isn't inheriently terrible. I long for a revival of the dead language.
