Rebuilt this little guy and I gotta say it makes a decent pot of #coffee.

i’m going to kiss one of the monkeys that escaped and then i’m going to go touch a bunch of fruit at the grocery store

A train from Saskatoon to Regina! Let’s get some trains going up north too, out a little train up to La Ronge! Let’s gooooooo

Hey iOS 26 users, there’s a new app on the way and they are looking for beta testers. It’s definitely early in development but it’s actually really nice to see an app using native iOS UI elements! testflight.apple.com/join/RRvk14ks

I've been building an app on the #atproto network and I have some tricky lexicon design decisions I have to make. Defining really strict text formatting at the lexicon level while still being open for future changes is hard.

i want my friends to remember me fondly. and my enemies to remember me as The Creature

The people celebrating the#Playstation2 anniversary are forgetting some of us had Sega Dreamcasts and this is actually a really difficult day.#RIP

Why didn't any of you tell me there is a fan made Pokemon MMO based on White/Black? And that it's free?? And on Linux????

i mean… jay literally tried to redefine it to mean something broader. still one of my favorite articles even though it didn’t catch on

hate to break it to you bud, but if you’re on bluesky then you’re on web3

The protocol and app are maturing, but always remember we are definitely still in an era where a single account can swallow some bad data and the devs have to ask around for them.

Maybe LLMs are more like real brains than we thought...

The government shutdown is especially tough on men, who are losing $1.00 for every 75¢ a woman loses.

Saskaaaaaaatchewaaaaaannnnnn I’ll be on your CBC Radios at 4:10pm local time to talk about last night’s thrilling Blue Jays victory. And I’m sure there be a Roughriders mention or two. It’s good to be green and blue these days. Talk to you soon.

Counterpoint: the level of contempt and disdain you feel is appropriate, it's the fact that it's not universally felt that is unhealthy.

Canada cool with one group of temporary foreign workers

Want.

Recommendations for a replacement service? I tried Apple Music because it was cheap when bundled with everything else Apple but I don’t actually like it. Tidal seems good, was using it before Apple Music. (I’m hosting my own music with Navidrome as well)

You can tell I'm trying to deploy something for the first time when I make 100 commits in under an hour to the connection settings files for any given DB interface.

This is so cool. As far as Reddit alternatives go, Lemmy on the ActivityPub network has been good but it suffers from the same on-boarding issues that all “fesiverse” apps have. Looking forward to some #atproto implementations like this!

If you aren’t spatchcocking your turkey you’re missing out. Shorter cook time and a juicier bird. It’s also fun to say “spatchcock”.

#Thanksgiving kitchen tip: add a dollop of sour cream to the Kraft Dinner to give a little festive zip to the meal.

If you use the Saskatchewan @flatlander.social feed, now you can kick him a bit of support. #Sask

Perhaps I wouldn't be so cynical about politics if my most cynical hot takes on greedy politicians weren't the absolute truth every frigging time. Like the minister in charge of public transportation selling off a crown bus service because his family has car dealerships seems unreal. Not in SK.

Oooh it’s the harvest moon! Don’t forget to leave milk and cookies out for Neil Young tonight

Found this mink’s hiding place in the rocks near the University Bridge in #Saskatoon on a summer-like day last week … #mink #saskatchewan #wildlifephotography #urbanwildlife #meewasin #sask #kayaking #cuteanimals

Welter said there is often no incentive for large grain companies to offer a better price for a famers “because in many cases they become the only game in town, or one of only two or three available options.” leaderpost.com/business/wes...

I took a different approach to this edit so if this looks familiar that would be why. A recent trip to Saskatchewan. Contrary to popular belief, it is not all flat and boring. #grasslandsnationalpark #saskatchewan #badlands #minimalist #bw #fineart

We hosted a “Hot Ones” party and it was a blast, lots of people took the challenge and most people finished! Destroyed several batches of wings though. I cannot stress enough how important it is to use baking POWDER (or corn starch), NOT baking SODA, for the crispy outer layer.

fwiw from my vantage point there’s a slice of Bluesky that is incandescently mad at Jay, a slightly larger slice of Bluesky that’s vaguely aware there’s drama, and like 85% of the pie that is totally unaware anything is going on

I am pleased as punch with the updated @flatlander.social feed. Maintenance has been a breeze, it’s quick and easy to tweak, and the content I’m seeing is so much better than what the feed was producing before. As always I’m open to suggestions on how to make it better!!

I’m out in rural Saskatchewan- anyone know where I’m at Under this round roof?

Glue and finishing nails should keep the table together, right? Enough to last through a party?

Leaving to take the kids on the path my mother once walked. From Delmas to her gravesite. I will walk with them as we place our offerings and tobacco down, speak our prayers and love for her to the Ancestors. I wish you all a day of reflection and love. Love the ones who never came home. 🪶💔

And today, I will be walking with her spirit, grieving all we could have been but sharing love for all we did become. 💕🪶

Truth and Reconciliation day is here. Today we grieve. Today, I ask those who are not Indigenous to take time to give space to the Indigenous people who are giving you important parts of themselves. Share your time and reflect on their truths. And as always, share the wealth and inheritances

I just heard a Christmas song being played in a public space. Holy fuck, it’s not even October yet. Christmas, fuck all the way off until after Remembrance Day. Fuck. Off.

Talking about deleting TikTok is getting me blocked a lot today. How offensive of me.

Terrific new review of flu & COVID vaccine recommendations in Vaccine from Jessica Breznik, Matt Miller, & @msmacrophage.bsky.social! They make a compelling data-driven case for expanding COVID vaccines & optimizing timing for COVID waves, as we do for flu.👇 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Anybody in Saskatoon here? I'm trying to get the word out to farmers who might find Starlink debris in their fields by reaching out to TV news journalists. Is it really just CBC, CTV, and Global? Is there somewhere else I should reach out to?

HAHAHA I love that they quoted me on this "It's like billionaires dropping their garbage on our heads" https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/saskatoon-space-debris-satelitte-reentry-1.7643516

Another week, another rural healthcare closure that the Sask Party has told no one about. This time it’s Herbert, who has been without an ER for 7 weeks. Why are MLA David Marit and Minister Carr keeping people in the dark when the difference can be life and death.

I hope people continue to use and enjoy the feed. Maintaining it has been a blast... but a lot of work. Migrating to a new development and hosting platform will hopefully be a positive change for everyone!

Here's the official Global Meteor Network camera video from Lucky Lake, Saskatchewan! This video is courtesy University of Western Ontario and Defence R&D Canada. I counted 13 pieces in the video, how many do we think made it to the ground and are sitting on canola stubble east of Saskatoon?

Fucking Carney. For fucks sake. Dude, you were not elected to trash our institutions.
