  When @TELUS sends out customer service surveys, the subject line of the email should be: “SURVEY - Telus about it”.

  @TaraArmstrongBC The bean counters and Wildfire operations are married but sleep in different rooms. The ministry is actually one of the poorer agencies of the government and sort of like the US marines there is rarely all the equipment and personell one wants but generally people are gung ho and will always make do. There are some internal skirmishes and rivalries like contract vs ministry firefighters, or between crews but generally it's friendly and all in all BC has one of the most professional and world class wildfire suppression systems. I can say that because I've been doing it for 10 years and have worked with firefighters from a dozen countries and half the provinces and territories. When it comes to finances it's a different world. For example some idiot thought it would be a great idea for Telus (the phone company) to do the ministries payroll, a universally hated arrangement by crews. After all on a slow year there are a thousand firefighters sitting around on base or doing make work projects on the governments dime. Why bother with additional funding, it doesn't buy votes. On a hot year one does what can be done with resources available until a state of emergency is declared and then the money rolls in and the millions flow. Probably costing considerably more than if sufficient crews and equipment were allocated in the first place. I'm not in management but the solution is probably in training and maintaining an additional 1000 ministry firefighters, expansion of the Para program, a few additional air assets and properly funding the type 2 and type 3 contract resources instead of a chronic loss of professional firefighters leaving the profession because there is no work or incentive to stay on a slow year. On a forest management perspective perhaps allowing green belts (natural fire breaks) to grow instead of spraying glyphosate (dries out the forest) for profit, or hiring enough Rangers to police the logging companies to get them to actually stay in line and manage the forests the way they pretend they do. Current logging practice drops water tables. But that's a conversation nobody wants to have

  @wliang is bullish on $AMPG and for a very good reason. Apart of partnership with $NVDA, they have the most insane customer base for $140M market cap: $AMZN, $IBM, NASA, Nvidia, Google + pretty much all the defense primes and US goverment. Amplitech has exposure to O-RAN, AI-RAN, Defense, Space, Satcom and quantum computing. Just to give you few reasons why I like Amplitech: 1. Over $118M in signed LOIs converting to POs 2. Gross margins 33% → 48% in one year 3. Guiding over $50M revenue FY26, only 2.4x forward P/S 4. 10M stock buyback authorized, ATM killed 5. Supplies Telus $66B network buildout 6. Only American O-RAN-certified 64T64R radio 7. Only US maker of 4K cryo LNAs for quantum 8. Only US-listed O-RAN pure play 9. C-UAS and defense pipeline forming 10. Member of AI-RAN Alliance

  @TELUSsupport @brndntlrnlsn TELUS changed my internet plan from 1.5 Gbps to 1 Gbps without my knowledge or consent. There was no notice, no explanation—nothing. If I ask them to fix it, only results is they charge me $200, no improvement after the repair.

  @Starlink UPDATE: Been on @Starlink for the last week 100% ... did some tests, interesting results... Since I use a vpn and wireguard for work, I tested the speed of the connections... Fiber Optic from @telus is way faster without the vpn, but I can't do that for work.... Starlink was faster then the optic on the vpn... I don't really have an idea as to why, I do know that I am physically close to the main trunk lines and main pbx for the area, so that might have a lot to do with it... more switches to deal with in vpn mode via optic, less with starlink. This was actually surprising for me. So as far as wireguard+vpn starlink wins for sure. But... I still have an issue with the billing office being in Canada, and randomizing the mac address is still a problem, but that one might be just the way I have configured things, will look more into it. As for the canada connection, that might be solved later via some changes that are coming for us as a family. we'll see.

  @redrock1867 @Rogers If there’s a major Canadian Corporation with worse customer service and communication than Rogers please drop a name. @TELUS has a great opportunity to raid Business market share in Calgary right now.
