Is it just me or this forum's old domain name (I think it was "hfboards.mandatory.com") just expired a week or so ago? Some of my bookmarks weren't working anymore, and I was all confused... We may have lost a few forum members due to this!

Yeah, I spent a few days thinking the site was down (after my first instinct being to check whether the Laffs had made some big move). My Chrome "most frequently visited" home links lead to those and it's a pain in the ass bc I don't want to change them manually

True.

From 2 years ago. We had an announcement banner posted for weeks.

Domain Name, PWA's, Servers

Domain name has been updated to get rid of the "Mandatory". Login credentials have not changed, but the address you have them assigned to has. Progressive Web Apps (PWA's) are enabled. The option to add to home screen on android phones should appear in a few hours. Apple does not participate...

As of September 5, you cannot return unpoened booze at the LCBO without a receipt.

The result of the rampant walking out of LCBOs of scumbags and they say they need to "protect taxpayer's investment". How does that protect anything when you can simply get an exchange? I got some booze presents with no receipts, and now you are stuck with them

It used to be like that. Not anymore. The internet tracks everyone one no matter what you do.

Not sure if they ever fixed this security issue from 2 years ago.

A Knock on the Door:

An hour or so ago, my door bell rings. It is my Tsun-Tsai (Neighbour). She is holding a gift and her cell phone so that she can communicate with me.

It is Autumn Harvest holiday in Chinese Culture. In 2024, it begins on the 17th of September.

Olive Skin makes good Kin. Pale Skin, makes even better Neighbours.

f*** you to all racists, Xenophobes and every other Phoebe. f*** you to Trump, to Xi, to Putin and every other disgusting human being looking to separate us through racism.

I have been humbled twice this month. My Neighbours who are wonder human beings. And by the LGBTQ community. They took a stand on a matter near and dear to my heart. I wrote them an e-mail to thank them.

Between the LGBTQ community and my Chinese Neighbours, I got my answer as to who the better person is?

You are so amazing and clearly not racist. "Pale skin makes even better neighbors?" That must be a quote from Gandhi or Martin Luther King, am I right? lol

Exactly!

Better neighbours than whom?

There you go. There's the racism.

City planning should be left to cities, it's pretty stupid for the province to be getting involved in these types of decisions imo. That's not to say the cities have been making great decisions but a province wide ban isn't how you solve issues at a city level.

Cities are run by morons. Look at Toronto

And the province isn't?

You could replace Toronto with any city or province and make the same point.

city hall is pathetic.

They are changing the water meters. See conclusions, page 412, end of second paragraph.

They are so desperate for money, they are turning to anything.

Send them back to office guys. Keep re-electing.

Mine was 50 years old, don’t see the issue, more accurate usage is also a benefit.

How does replacing a water metre generate more money, seems like it costs the city money as apposed to a revenue generator, even thougytates have been increasing.
