I have a buddy who used to call Weights and Measures on bars that passed off US customary pints as "pints". It is illegal, but enforced largely by complaint.

The road network expansions and maintenance required to support the suburbs does. Ottawa has this exact problem. They are widening inner-suburb roads to satisfy demand created by outer-suburb development. A double-whammy.


I wind up using this kind of formatting while writing in Google Docs. It's easier to jump around with the nav bar if the structure is legible to the app. But it does make the document less readable.


That's refraction not scattering though.

I have the ugreen card, and it works fine. https://www.ugreen.com/en-ca/products/ca-45298


Anyone stealing a wallet would immediately look through the contents and discard such card, no?


My need was finding my black wallet in the house when I forget where I put it. My wife has been very happy that she no longer has to field "Hey sweetie, have you seen my wallet?". I walk around asking it to sing to me, and I find it without bother.

As for theft - you might be overthinking it. It's a black piece of plastic that could easily be a door key. Gutter thieves will rifle the wallet and pull out cash, and credit cards, and drop the rest in the trash anyway. Any regular thief knows they don't want to be caught holding someone else's id.


I mean it's there front-and-center and mentioned multiple times in all materials related to airtags. These are not anti-theft, or stalking devices as they alert the thief. They are tracking devices for misplacing items (e.g. a wallet).

I own 8 AirTags, and have them on all my sets of keys and in all my bags. I've managed to avoid loss about 5 times in the 3 years of using them. It also gives me piece of mind when landing on a plane that my luggage is where its meant to be.

If you want to stop your wallet being stolen, I'm afraid your options are very limited.


This matches my testing. Aurora is fast enough that we actual started to contend on the heap locks, and had to tune our batch orders. Too bad network-attached i/o is so slow.


Yeasts and fungi produce durable spores. But most gut bacteria do not form spores. When they dry out, they die.


Planning, good sense, and caution go a long way to compensate for physical impairment. Weed is different from booze in that booze increases risk taking, which makes driving such a danger. But that doesn’t mean weed doesn’t impair in some material way compared to baseline.

Your average driver on weed: drives 5 miles per hour to the taco bell drive thru
