Anyone in #yyj #victoriaBC want an all-weather ebike? RideTheGlide is having a forklift sale. (Because of the time a dude smashed their front entrance in with a forklift and stole some bikes.)

Lost my wallet this afternoon in Sidney BC. If this were twitter-of-old, I could reasonably tag this with where I lost it ( #Sidney #SidneyBC #yyj #VictoriaBC) and hope that someone might see it and reconnect me with it. But, sadly, I don't think fediverse has quite the same level of reach. And I'm certainly not signing up to facebook or whatever to try asking there.
Hopefully someone found it and did something reasonable, like dropping it in the post.

I suppose it's like any service, if the service is good enough & the market can bear it, they can charge what they want.

If you were to explain mergers/acquisitions/consolidation in terms of entropy, how would you approach that? Would you say that in a supposedly free market, businesses, as a rule, lose entropy to the point where there can only ever be a very few super-conglomerations?

I was taught that *all* dogs go to heaven, so this seems unnecessary.

I've never seen the final episode of Almost Human for this exact reason.
And my theory is: if I never see the finale, it was never truly cancelled & lives on forever.
