7·12 days agoThere are AUX cables that have a transmit and recive switch. You can use this to transmit the output of your iPod through AUX to a built in bluetooth receiver in your car or other device.

Just make sure what you choose has the transmitter function as most cheaper ones only have the receiver function (for use in a car stereo for example).
Good and should continue as such
Give me a intercity train or intercity tram any day.
Restricting access to information, what a way to control the general population.
Marty, you’re just not thinking fourth dimensionally!
Most PCs no longer have floppy disk readers or CD drives, where are they going to put the placebo or drugs in. /s

That’s what she said!
Solar glass yes. Solar blinds I don’t know of anything that would be thin and flexible enough to roll and unroll everyday.
There are some think flexable solar panels, but nothing that I seen that you could use as a replacement blind in a roller blind.
Take a look into solar glass, you can retrofit some of these products right onto existing windows on the inside.
The one advantage to sollar glass is you don’t have to keep your blinds down all the time especially if you want to enjoy a sunny day.

Edit: Seems I misunderstood the assignment.
Motorized Solar powered blinds where you don’t have access to power.
Should not happen, we should not sell Canadian companies to foreign investors. First thing that happens almost always is the local Canadian company gets shutdown.
Who even wants this tunnel, I want trains, subways, streetcars and priority bus lanes.
Density of neighborhood’s should be top of mind with mid-rise 3-6 levels and less condo development. We need schools in neighborhoods within walking distance for children to walk within neighborhoods and not on outskirts, we need multi use zoning to allow stores inside our neighborhoods.
We need to curb sprawl that forces people to commute these long distances always stuck in traffic.
We need to turn existing suburbs into examples of Toronto’s Riverdale, a suburb in North America that is on par in density with that of towns in the Netherlands.

Westworld here we come
Judges are a vital service.
Ford having an issue with a judge that is overseeing a case that was brought forward by the people of Ontario is Ford having an issue with the people.
The Judge is doing a bipartisan job to judge the facts presented by both parties in a equal and fair manner.
Yup, people in Ontario voted for Ford because they did not want to support Trudeau. Most did not even realize the difference between a provincial and federal government.
Seems similar to what’s going on in Alberta as well TBH.
Though at least IMO, I do think the liberals at this moment in Ontario don’t have a “strong” candidate to lead the provincial party. But that does not mean you local riding candidate/representative has no experience.
They did talk a little about zoning amd density. Though without a way for people or goods to get around there is no economy.
Street car suburbs is a coined term that is basically at its heart a transit oriented community. Though street car suburbs require the expressed knowledge that density is needed.
The video simply shows that these types of communities already exist and a perfect example is that Toronto already has them.
Though many people, even the ones that live in these areas are not even aware of the distinction, but that might not necessarily be a bad thing? To them it feels like any other suburb, but has three times the density of what’s legally allowed to be built with current zoning laws.
I agree with you, we need to add density to our existing suburbs not continue the sprawl.
The video I linked to shows how this is possible, and how Toronto street car suburbs already have the same comparable density to Europe cities like Amsterdam. Or three times the density of what’s built now.
Transforming a typical single family home “american suburb” into a street car suburb will be challenging for sure.
The first step is having people realize there is more then two types of locations to live. It’s not just a choice between “the city” and “the suburbs” or a single family home and a condo.
There are plenty of different other styles of communities. Toronto even has a fully car free residential neighborhood (the only one in North America) located on center island. Completely pedestrian oriented.
Streetcar Suburbs is what we need! Rezoning and density. Great Not Just Bikes video showing how current legislation in Canada prevents new suburbs being built like the used to be in Canada 60-70 years ago.
Trump insists that Canada needs the U.S. more than the U.S. needs it
Sounds like a bad ex-relationship
I think this has something to do with how networking works.
When connected wireless to my car with a VPN active on my phone, my phone won’t connect to my cars WiFi network to initiate the android auto connection.
When connected by USB with VPN active on my phone it’s not issue, android auto connects and my VPN is active.
I remember seeing someone smarter explain this a lot better online somewhere then I can at the moment. But simply trying to connect wireless with a VPN active will not work.
