I didn't know a carbon monoxide sensor only lasts ten years. I don't even know how to dispose of it. Do they all end up in the landfill in #Ottawa ? That is a lot of waste given we have around perhaps 250,000 homes in Ottawa?

Action in Ottawa - #TeslaTakedown This Saturday and Next Sunday

That was the regular price, not a sale.
Lufa Farms has the right idea - building rooftop greenhouses for fresh veggies above hyperstores/supercenters. They currently serve #Quebec and #Ottawa

(rooftop solar panels: also a good idea)
It's been a mild day here in Ottawa.
Window's cracked open and I can hear the sound of people up and down the block whacking little canals in the ice for water to flow to the street drains.
For added pleasure, there's a wild turkey tom wandering up and down the street offering advice.
#Ottawa friends - I have a handful of old Macs that I'd like to donate to worthy causes as opposed to just giving them to the #Apple store to be recycled. They still have life in them as #Linux machines, I'm thinking.
Any suggestions? Are there organizations in the area that would benefit from these?
For the purposes of discussion, assume said Macs are all around 10 years old - I have a couple of laptops and Mac minis. I think. I'll have to go into the climate-controlled vault, where I also keep my *priceless* collections of vintage cables and AC adapters, to be sure
