Safe and sound in Ottawa! Will be heading out to Kanata (Scotiabank Place) tomorrow, as well as the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau, then Parliament Hill and some other buildings/museums Saturday. It's going to be raining cats and dogs, but will try to make the best of it. Here he is below... Don't know if I converted him into a hockey fan, though.

So who is getting the bear next, just so i can keep things updated

I dont know exactly where that is, but it shouldn't be a problem, i'm in that area all the time.

So, I went all over Ottawa as much as I could today, because tomorrow is going to be down-pouring pretty much all day. I'm going to be uploading all of the pics Sunday night while I'm pulling an all-nighter before my flight up north (no point going to bed if I get in at 10PM, and have to be awake for 3AM or so, hahaha. So here is a teaser for now. Commentary will be added when I upload the bulk of pics.

Here are the pics of the Ottawa portion of his stay. We leave for the Arctic in under 4 hours (4:40 AM EDT), and are dead tired already. Just click onwards to my Flickr, because I don't really want to overwhelm the page with a lot of pictures... One which is massive.

In the mean time, just figure out who is next, and have them PM me the address so I can send him off ASAP.

Tracking number says moonman got it Friday, so we are all now waiting on him. :D

tracking number does say that but i havn't got it yet! just checked mail box again today but nothing, then went to local post office and apparently, the "out for delivery" doesnt mean out for delivery to me lol. The guy at the local office said the item is still in the big station in richmond hill and it'll get to the local office tomorrow most likely!

Hahahaha, gotta love Canada Post. That's the first I've heard of that issue (out for delivery always literally meant that for me), but really, after issues over the years, I don't doubt it. An no slip left behind, either? *sigh* We should complain. :p

    • I remember when all games had demos; it was a normal thing, not a limited time promotion.
    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
