  @bleating_lamb @JimScarratt Didn't bother with transfer & changed provider, annual subscription for alternate payroll equivalent for one month earnie/telus. Now ready to dump gatekeeper... actively looking for alternatives...not convinced their offer for agronomist/mapping solution will be viable (30yrs FP)

  @majgeoinvesting @EhrmantrautCap_ What they should have done with Series A? It is not that they could have cancel it. Last year they needed cash to fund Telus ramp up, but now when money is flowing in and they have excess capital they want to use to offset the dilution from Series A by buying stock back. There is past and there is present. A lot happened since last year.

  @AngelaUnspoken I only connected the dots recently when my phone crashed and I had to replace it. Started searching for the best mobile phone rates and explored the links: Interesting that there are only Three Major Networks and Subsidiaries in Canada Telus Network Family ◦Telus Mobility: Main carrier providing nationwide 5G coverage. Visit Telus. ◦Koodo Mobile: Mid-tier flanker brand owned by Telus. Visit Koodo. ◦Public Mobile: Value/prepaid brand operating on the Telus network. Bell Network Family ◦Bell Mobility: Major national carrier. Visit Bell. ◦Virgin Plus: Flanker brand offering mobile and-home services. ◦Lucky Mobile: Prepaid discount brand. Rogers Network Family ◦Rogers Wireless: Major national carrier. ◦Fido: Popular flanker brand. ◦Chatr Mobile: Discount brand focused on talk, text, and budget data. One Independent / Regional Network ◦Freedom Mobile: Major regional carrier owned by Quebecor. It looks like Virgin Plus at Bell offers the best plan at the best rates and Koodo at Telus plays a lot of pricing games on customers. So few choices in Canada. Wonder how that happened?

  @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.

  @StatisticsBC @VIAwesome Fair enough—public debate is healthy. But the core claims driving the marches (water grid drain + waste heat baking the city) still don’t match the actual engineering. These aren’t traditional evaporative data centres. Telus/Westbank designs use closed-loop liquid cooling—a sealed system that recirculates the same fluid, like a car radiator. Result: dramatically lower water use (company target: up to 90% less than conventional air-cooled facilities) and near-zero ongoing evaporation for the primary loop. At 150 W Georgia, the heat isn’t vented to the street. It’s transferred into Creative Energy’s district steam plant to help heat 200+ downtown buildings and cut natural-gas demand. That’s the opposite of “warming the city.” Protests highlight real questions about scale, power, and process. Those deserve scrutiny. Spreading outdated assumptions about water and heat does not. #Vancouver #DataCentres #Sustainability

  @TELUSsupport between August 28 and today I have spoke to at least 8-9 Telus agents to resolve a problem . I’ve had agents diarize to call me back as follow up … nothing . Any other business working like this would be bankrupt. Telus is the worst choice ever a client could make
