"#MunicipalAffairs Minister #RicMcIver told reporters that mandating #manual counts by banning #tabulators will improve voter #trust in the #election process. [#AileenGiesbrecht] said there have been “no issues with tabulators,” and that the city doesn’t know for sure when the last time it hand-counted ballots. Her office later provided @taprootyeg with a scan of an Edmonton Journal article from 1968 that announced the adoption of tabulators."

Die Richtige Haltung.

A person demonstrates two ways of holding a Contax rangefinder camera. On the left (“Abb. 14a: Richtige Haltung”), they show the correct posture: the camera is held close to the face with both hands in a stable position. On the right (“Abb. 14b: Falsche Haltung”), they illustrate an incorrect posture: the right elbow is raised, and the grip appears unstable.

Can't beat 684 pages, and until now haven't bothered to download the #manual for #ShotCut https://www.shotcut.org/ as I found it fairly intuitive. It only has 211 pages, but the #software has suited my needs under both Windows and Linux over the last eight years or so. (It has fallen over on when running Linux on my Chromebook however, but as that only has a 10Gb allocated for all my Linux apps, it's not entirely surprising.)

This thing is quite good at pulling trees. 3m extension and 1.5 tons or 1.5m extension and 3 tons when used with the turning block.

Another reasonable quality tool for a reasonable price from #Yato.

A manual lever winch (I think it's a "come-along" in American?). It's attached to a piece of rusty steel embedded in concrete and the wire rope leads to another hook off screen. There's a long galvanized steel lever with a red and black plastic handle. The lever drives a ratchet and there's a release lever and a small red on/off toggle.

Simple Sabotage for the 21st Century

The most potent tools for fighting #injustice are the ones already in your hands.

Looks to be inspired by the US government’s declassified field manual 'Simple #Sabotage Field #Manual’ from 1944. But it’s updated for the #digital, current world.

I can’t say I’m surprised. The #manual had the option for the 3.0L inline six-pot while the 2.0L only came with the automatic. That, and I doubt a lot of #Supra buyers wanted that weird #BMW shifter nub in the middle of their center console. #cars https://www.autoblog.com/news/toyota-supra-buyers-prove-the-manual-transmission-isnt-dead-yet
