leafblower chat reminds me of how my landlord hired some random guy to do pre-winter grounds cleanup, and how for like 3 weeks 8 hours a day he just used a weedwacker on every square inch of ground surrounding my cottage Like he could have used a lawnmower for the vast majority of it but nope

Yeah it's worked great for 100 years. Even in early automobile days electric cars were cheaper to maintain than oil burning gas drinkers so they were labeled woman cars so men would blow their money on cash pits instead

Thinking of getting an electric chainsaw for a tree out back. But I don't really need it. But then again, it would be really cool to have. https://www.oregonproducts.com/en/c...omparison_Chart Surprised Nintendo hasn't sued over that logo

But then again, it would be really cool to have. looks like oregon products used it in its current form first. nintendo had a similar one with a thinner oval a few years before oregon did, but nintendo didn't adopt the red one with a thick oval until the mid 80s.

there is no basis for suing over a similar looking logo if the products are unlikely to be confused with one another. video game companies and outdoor equipment companies have no overlap in products or market. check back when oregon chainsaw starts making game consoles

the covid vaccine signup system opened up today for seniors 80+ and first nations people 65+. 1.7 million people called the hotline this morning. there are only 5 million people in the province. anyways I'm celebrating year 2 of this poo poo by leaving work early and having a socially distanced responsible cheeky pint with the lads at a small brewery that only seats a couple dozen people at a time

lawns are only acceptable in climates where grass actually lives year round anywhere else, just concrete it over and put a fuckin apartment building on it actually do that everywhere tbh

Kazinsal posted:the covid vaccine signup system opened up today for seniors 80+ and first nations people 65+. It's actually only for 90+ year olds who don't live in any sort of assisted living / long term care type place, plus aged 65+ indigenous. Especially given that a lot of indigenous people have already been vaccinated and only 3.8% of population is indigenous (ie 190,000 total skewed young), there are probably fewer than 20,000 people who have any business calling.
