    Glad I moved to Garmin a while back. I preferred Fitbit's Dashboard over Garmin
    When I heard Google's buying it, I got a Garmin for my next smartwatch just to check the UI. I was thinking of moving back, but I guess I won't.
    Garmin seems to be embracing smartwatches with a number of different series

    There's probably a lot of crazy stuff happen in Vancouver buses. Vancouver is transit centric, so from the mid-upper class to the poor and mentally ill uses the transit
    The last one that I remember was early this year. I was riding the community bus (a 24 passenger, single exit bus, ) and one of the passenger looked like he hasn't showered or changed clothes in days.
    The bus bumped into something and the drive stopped and told everyone he had to stop and wait for the transit supervisor.
    The guy then started screaming "WHY" several times to the driver and tried to pee on the driver. Luckily there's a plastic barrier (from Covid days) so the driver's safe. After that he probably realized he did something bad and walked out of the bus

    Quite a biased guide.
    It imiplies that the objective of all diets is to lose weight. If that's the intent for the guide, then it should show all diets, and all of them would have to show that they do that by creating a caloric deficit

    It's because they know it's less likely that they get hurt in peaceful protest and they're more likely to die when protesters are ready to respond with violence and weapons.

    The police will probably use force to clear the protest. It's hard to protest for peace if you use force to keep protesting..

    Now that everyone know this can be done, every country in the world needs to worry about terrorists replicating this. Maybe in the old days they need to go through security checkpoint at the airport to hijack large planes for 9/11, but now they only need a large plane and some time.
