Kobo readers are really neat, I've been using them for over a decade and I don't remember ever using a Rakuten account or even going online with them for anything but software updates or connecting to my local library system (which Kindle can't do). I use Calibre on the desktop to manage, convert and load my reader and that's it.

Please reassure me Roskapankki is still operating.
They're cutting a ton of good union jobs and offshoring as much as possible while being crazy profitable. This is so fucked up.
Those fines are ridiculously low, they should be based on a percentage of the company's net worth. I bet that puny amount will be treated as a business expense.
I still use The Old Reader online. Don't need more.
My Instant Pot. I'm the cook at home and it saves me so much time and food comes out so good I barely use my stovetop anymore. Same with the air fryer. Between both kitchen gadgets, I can make a tremendous meal for 4 in 30 minutes. It has saved me weeks!
The RCMP (Racist Corrupt Motherfucking Pigs) refusing to investigate MMAW isn't anything new, that's their usual response sadly.
Air Canada pilots have just joined ALPA and got pretty big raises in their new contract. Good for them, but management is pissed.
She's so unqualified it's painful.
So... what's the news?
AC has gone to absolute shit. I fly internationally and pay extra to not fly with them due to past experiences. They still owe me thousands of dollars for "lost" luggage and hotel nights last year and I hope to never fly with those bozos ever again. AC management being shit is one thing, the way the agents treat passengers is another level of insult.
Galaxy S23+ here, had the S10 and S7 before that. Great cameras (it matters to me) and very durable phones once you put them in a good case. The S23+ is easier on my old eyes and I easily get 3+ days battery life out of it. Samsung has also done a nice job slimming down the UI but I use the Nova launcher anyway.
I see things haven't changed ;)
