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

    • Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There's a brand-new update rolling out to Nvidia's GeForce NOW streaming service, and like every week, that means more games have received support on the platform. This week's drop has additions like Aphelion and Pro Cycling Manager 26 attached to it. Don't forget that the GeForce NOW summer sale is still active too. This limited-time offer drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. At the same time, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping the price by $70 from the original $199.99. Moreover, Nvidia reiterated that support for GOG single sign-in and game library is incoming this summer, joining stores like Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, and Xbox. "Connect supported game store accounts and stream titles with GeForce RTX power. Games that include cloud-save functionality help keep progress intact across devices," added the company. "Start a game on one screen, pick up where playtime left off on another, and spend less time managing installs and storage space." Here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: Embers of the Uncrowned Demo (New release on Steam, available 13) Pro Cycling Manager 26 (New release on Steam, available June 15) Aphelion (Steam) Citizen Sleeper (Epic Game Store, Free from June 18-25) Megastore Simulator (Steam) OPERATOR (Steam) Super Meat Boy 3D (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month, with extra time being purchasable in chunks.
    • 47% profit margin? Wtf!! I know companies are in business to make money but come on man. I know for a fact I'll never own one of these.
    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.
