  • Canada Post needed

    If Canada looks South, many in the US want future hand counts in elections because of interference through tech via corrupt actors.

    Mail is another example of this as Trump needed to ruin mail systems in IS to undermine vote by mail.

    What happens in US, often comes North. Don’t let tech and oligarchs take over control!!

A record-breaking wildfire season is straining Europe's aerial firefighting capacity
Q: Why is recruitment a bottleneck in the firefighting fleet?
There aren't enough trained pilots and maintenance crews globally, and the work is highly demanding, making succession planning and recruitment slow.
A record-breaking wildfire season is straining Europe's aerial firefighting capacity
Q: What happens next as European firefighting firms adapt to longer seasons?
The industry will need more technicians, more pilots, and earlier investment in aircraft and training, with governments recognizing the long-term demand and supporting capacity expansion.
Why it's important to remember the 2021 heat dome in British Columbia
Q: Is it any different now that you have an agent and legal support
With legal representation and awareness, future deals could be more favorable, and I would approach any AI likeness contract with rigorous review and more control over output.
Why it's important to remember the 2021 heat dome in British Columbia
Q: Can you walk me through how exactly the AI deal came about and why you signed it?
The initial pitch was for an AI test with a modest payment, but the subsequent contract granted perpetual rights to the avatar, which I signed without fully understanding the implications due to urgent financial pressures.
Why it's important to remember the 2021 heat dome in British Columbia
Q: In the last year, how many times have you seen your AI avatar appear in ads online?
The number of appearances has been extensive but there were no residuals or long-term earnings; the experience highlighted how often the avatar appeared without compensation.
