    From the image it does look like a 15-pin vga cable, which would have been an uncommon thing to require gender bending. It was a lot more common for DB9 and DB15 serial ports.

    I probably still have boxes of such things somewhere. Yeah, back in the 1990's we had all kinds of not-politically-correct nicknames for various cables and adapters.

    Unions are necessary to balance out greedy/corrupt employers, and scabs are necessary to balance out greedy/corrupt unions.

    Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

    I'm usually glad that I'm not a Vancouver taxpayer when I see all the nonsense that taxpayer money gets wasted on.

    But as a Surrey taxpayer, I'm not in a position to throw stones at Vancouver anymore. This whole policing fiasco is embarrassing.

  • As predictable as the tide's ebb and flow is *new White Rock restaurants opening* and *failed White Rock restaurants closing*. I understand the obvious reasons why some businesses fail: too much competition, high rent, lack of customers during winter or bad weather, razor-thin margins. But there's a couple White Rock businesses that seem to be stillborn and I'm curious why: - Seed and Stone (a weed shop on west beach) had their sign on a store for months and months, but it never opened. The sign recently disappeared. - Chef Tian's (east beach) has had a big sign on the the building for a year, but has never opened. I'm presuming that both businesses spent money on a lease and spent money putting up signs, so I'm curious what prevented them from opening.
