  1. À chaque fois que je réfléchis à ce constat, ça fait froid dans le dos. Au Québec, 1 adulte sur 2 de 16 à 65 ans n’atteint pas le niveau de littératie lui permettant de comprendre un texte long, comme un article de journal ou un contrat. 😬 🤦🏻‍♂️

  2. Oh, skiing pictures, such that they are. We went to Le Massif and Mont Grand-Fonds east of Québec City. Grand-Fonds is pretty old-school. So is Le Massif, in some ways, but it's much bigger. Le Massif also had a strike starting just after we left. Anyway, these pictures are all from Mont Grand-Fonds. #skiing #QC

  3. Tell the government nature should never be traded away for faster project approvals.

    The changes are meant to speed up approvals for industrial projects. But they could also make it easier to put endangered species at greater risk.

  5. Android file systems can be quite finicky

    This phone which is now devoid of a microSD card, behaves like it is new, just as few years ago.

    Even though this is not a mistake of the brand, with this cheapest phone option and their mid-range phone option I've had bad to horrific experiences.

    This cheap one has the *worst* touch screen that I've ever felt. It scratches very easy, even when you work with clean hands, and it often has false touch detection
    The mid-range phone literally heated it self to DEATH. The heatsink design and heat distribution on it, are the worst I've ever seen. That phone died within a year.

    That caused a Android financial problem

    The cheap phone constantly kills processes that have to run in background especially if they are Open Source based

    I could go on but this will suffice; the cheap phone is degraded to a practical GSM with just the FediVerse and some small clients running on it.

    The mid-range phone died an untimely death kicking me away from the brand, most likely forever.

  6. The day quantum computers break the first cryptographic key I'm gonna go full rampage and publicly name and shame all the snarky folks who identify themselves with the "QC/is/bullshit" gender. I am taking notes on my list, mind you. Your name is there as well.

    Revenge is best served at 0.02 Kelvin.
