For Fridays, it's either all or nothing - so today is an all day, with all kinds of exciting new things, including Raspberry Pi Version 2 & accessories, PCBGrip and Hakko soldering irons
Update: Looks like Canada Post is doing a rotating strike, so only one city will be affected at a time. This means that, most likely, orders shipped via postal methods will only be delayed 2-3 days. Purolator and UPS options are not impacted, and have no delays.
Ok class, fictional robotic history refresher course 101: What year was Skynet set to launch a massive nuclear attack against humanity?Answer: 1997.In the alternate, Sarah Conner Chronicles timeline, what year was Skynet set to be activated?
Answer: 2011.
I believe the impeccable logic stands for itself. Postal mail is directly tied to a fictional artificial intelligence that's destined to destroy the human population. You see, the last time Canada Post went on strike was 1997, and (just as the prophecies have foretold) they are set to strike again this year, even in a few days. Which will surely bring about the downfall of all humanity. Or just the temporary downfall of some of shipping options. If you still place your order for shipping via postal methods, we'll hold it until the strike is resolved. We suggest you go with Purolator or UPS for all orders that are even remotely time-sensitive.
We hope both parties will be able to resolve the issue as soon as possible. We mean absolutely no offense to Canada Post workers with our Skynet analogy. Think about it - we're a robotics company and we're saying that they're like awesome robots. That would mean we think they're totally cool, which is 100% true - we appreciate the work our couriers do for us, and wish them all the best with their efforts.

Although not a true BEAM robot, this simple schematic by Randy Sargent is small, simple, slick, and effective. My own version uses a pair of pager motors and three cells from a 9V rechargeable battery. Hard to get any simpler than this device!
Fun fact: Tomorrow is Good Friday. By default, that means for the other 51 weeks of the year we experience Bad Fridays. We're not quite sure what exactly makes them so undesirable per se, but because the chance to celebrate a Good Friday comes around so infrequently, we've got to act on it, dangit. So […]
