[Joke] Canadians in Hell


Recommended Posts

Two guys from Toronto die and wake up in hell.

The next day the devil stops in to check on them and sees them dressed in parkas, mittens and toques warming themselves around the fire. The devil asks them, "What are you doing? Isn?t it hot enough for you?"

The two guys reply, "Well, you know, we?re from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold. We?re just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."

The devil decides that these two aren?t miserable enough and turns up the heat.

The next morning he stops in again and there they are, still dressed in parkas, toques and mittens. The devil asks them again, "It?s awfully hot down here, can?t you guys feel it?"

Again the two guys reply, "Well, like we told ya yesterday, we?re from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold. We?re just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."

This gets the devil a little steamed up and he decides to fix these two guys. He cranks the heat up as high as it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere. He stops by the room with the two guys from Canada and finds them in light jackets and bucket hats, grilling sausage and drinking beer.

The devil is astonished, "Everyone down here is in abject misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves."

The two Canadians reply, "Well, ya know, we don?t get too much warm weather up there in Toronto so we?ve just got to have a cook-out when the weather?s THIS nice."

The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight. Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. The devil decides to turn all the heat off in hell.

The next morning, the temperature is below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere; people are shivering so bad that they are unable to do anything but wail, moan and gnash their teeth.

The devil smiles and heads for the room with the two Canadians.

He gets there and finds them back in their parkas, toques, and mittens. NOW they are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling and screaming like mad men!!!

The devil is dumbfounded, "I don?t understand, when I turn up the heat you?re happy. Now it?s freezing cold and you?re still happy. What is wrong with you two???"

The Torontonians look at the devil in surprise, "Well, don?t you know? If Hell freezes over, it must mean the Leafs have won the Stanley Cup."

The Toronto Maple Leafs haven't won the Stanley Cup in the National Hockey League since 1967 but still continue to sell out every game without difficultly. Every year a bunch of hopeful Toronto fans announce that this will be the year but the Leafs are often well back by Christmas.

Now, this year... The Leafs are currently ranked 8 out of 30. That is somewhat surprising considering that most experts assumed (before the season began) that they wouldn't make the playoffs.

Leafs fans are often mocked for wildly celebrating a first round playoff series win (when, in fact, you need to win four such series consecutively to win the Stanley Cup).

That station is a serious rippoff of espn logo

ESPN either partially owns it or they have some sort of deal between them. Notice the "ESPN Classic" link at the top.

Edit:

ESPN owns 30% and there once was a move to rename it ESPN Canada (according to the TSN wiki entry).

    • Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.124 with a focus on faster agent workflows and improved agent autonomy. Microsoft outlined the following features as the key items in this update: Autopilot: Autopilot, enabled by default, is now smarter to determine when a task is truly done. Background sessions: Quickly send a request in the background and keep composing the next session. Session navigation: Search, jump, and step through agent sessions with the keyboard. Browser history: Revisit and search pages you've already opened in the integrated browser. With VS Code 1.124, Microsoft has enabled Autopilot by default. For those that don’t know, Autopilot is a chat permission level that you can pick to give agents permission to take initiative and act autonomously, without needing explicit user approval for each action. Also related to Autopilot, Microsoft introduced Advanced Autopilot, which changes how Autopilot decides when to keep iterating and when to finish. This helps you get more complete results without manually monitoring loops. This feature works using a small utility model that reads a transcript of the chat and decides when the task is done. Another new feature in 1.124 is the Agents window, which lets you easily explore, iterate on, and review agent sessions across projects and machines. Previously, starting a new agent session meant waiting for it to load before you could compose the next one. With this update, sessions can be requested in the background. This VS Code update also brings session navigation updates to switch between them more quickly. The update also lets you reload or reopen the Agents window so that it no longer loses your layout, so you will land back where you left off. If you use the integrated browser in VS Code, you will notice that it now retains the history of visited pages. Suggestions will now show when typing in the URL bar and can be managed by using Ctrl+H within a browser tab. The browser now also lets you customize the toolbar more; just right-click on the toolbar area to the right of the URL input. Finally, the browser has faster agentic text entry. Another improvement is experimental enterprise-managed Copilot plugin policies that allow admins to centrally control which chat plugins and plugin marketplaces are available to developers. If you have VS Code installed, 1.124 should install automatically, or you'll get a prompt. If you don't have it installed, get it here.
    • Ray-Tracing is the Radeon RX 9070 XT's biggest weakness. The Radeon RX 9070 XT might not be able to match in the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in ray-tracing, but it can beat the GeForce RTX 5070, which is around the same price.
