Have you noticed how often there's an out of order sign now on everything.  I wonder if it's the electronic components getting old and breaking down.  I know condensers have a lifetime and they change their characteristics and why radios no longer work. Today it was the laundry room.  I loaded my clothes and then went to the ATM to update my card.  Payment out of order. The ATM at the bank was only dispensing U.S. dollars. I'm at the casino and all the slot machines are down.  And on and on it goes. I'm going to get a sign for the parliament buildings.  OUT OF ORDER. ;D

Nope, really have not noticed. Of course I don't get around the city much, I live in the county, all farmers.

Parliament will be out of order soon, as the workers have taken strike action.

So what happens if you can't file your taxes on time?

They'll make provisions for this. People will get pissed out waiting for refunds, people will be worried about having to pay penalty's, but it'll work out..

Gateway casinos have been closed to to a cyber incident.  Details are scarce.  Probably a hack demanding ransom in my opinion.

Save yourself some money today.

QuoteMore than 30 hours after Gateway Casinos and Entertainment abruptly shut down Gateway Casinos Sudbury and its other Ontario casinos, the company has confirmed it was a victim of a cyber attack.

Gateway gaming sites, including the one in Sudbury, "will remain closed in the coming days" as the company attempts to restore its IT systems.

Is that what it was? or hackers attempting to get into the system to steal.

There's really no cash to steal. Maybe trying to access the ATM machine and get credit card numbers.  However the way their explanation reads it was a cyber attack.  That could mean anything and even ransomware.   That's more likely because all the Gateway casinos were vulnerable. I had the ransomware virus once.  It was really weird.  My computer was locked. They even accessed my camera on the computer and showed me a picture of my place.  I was supposed to go to an Esso gas station and make a payment to get my computer back.  I never did that and I can't remember how I got out of it but I did it on my own somehow.

Today I'm working on a problem with my TV.  I have Shaw cable.  And there is one channel I cannot get although it's included in my package. It's TSN 4.  I have tried various things to fix it and finally called support.  We tried for over an hour and never fixed it.  They booked a visit from a technician. I'm tracing it back to when I signed up for the basic package and they gave me a new box.  I never bothered with it before because I thought it didn't come with the basic package.
