That's right ... 179.4 cents a liter!!! (American's that would beCAD 789.36 cents a gallon aka $6.75 70/100th US a gallon) ...

That's ludacristic ...

Title edited for spelling ;)

Just filled up at $0.95.

But they told me that Sarnia is at $1.92 and Windsor is at $1.87 so London will be higher.

Yikes!

Cars are lined up down the streets, the roads are empty and everyone is getting gas. This is insane.

This was from A-Channel London News ... with the Hurricane coming, they are clearning off Oil Rigs in the ocean, and that will cause stoppage of oil and they say by the middle of next week could be $2/lt in Ontario (TO, London, KGW/C, Ottawa etc) and less in the other provinces...

I'm so glad I don't drive...

no most people are middle class, and can't afford gas and insurance on a car.

I take public transit, but I mean, I know people that need a car to commute to work because public transit doesn't cover that far away. It sucks for them since they have to be able to afford going to work every day. It just means that they have to cut back on certain things. It's kind of sad once you think about it. :s

OH MY GOSH!

Shell Stratford Ontario (about 45min from where I live) was at 225.0 at 7:54 this morning! Good golly Miss Molly!

I'm glad I walk to work. I"ll let you know the prices in my small 3200 person town when I walk past the shell today.

I'd like to see other ppl post their gas prices.

Do it somthing like City/Town is at ###.#/liter (95% of the World) or /gallon (US)

That's unreal!!!! Although when Hurricane Katrina hit a local gas station in VA immediately jacked their price from $2.95/gal to $5.89/gal and people actually paid that much for it. I can't wait to see what Hurricane Rita does to the price at the pump.

Gas is still 109.9 here this morning ... I'm not sure when or if the prices are going to be that extreme. :|

[Edit] By the way I'm up in Sudbury Ontario. EVERY gas station is super crowded and the attendants are directing traffic becuase everyone is fighting to get gas at this price.

      Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
