I'm calling fake. The grass is still green, the table and chairs are out, no snowblower in sight. It is obviously July in that pic.
The video was from Lachine, Qc, Ca, which I think is your neck of the woods (I'm just east of Ottawa).
I have seen wires dancing in the wind/rain/snow and arcing, but never the kind of flowing fire that these had. I have to wonder what was the cause, the fuel and the sustainment of the flashover.
For that storm, we got lots of wind causing some brownouts, but nothing like this.

I'm in Australia where it's spring, warm, and sunny - but that was one heck of a stiff breeze!

Yeah, but you're a Pom that has chosen to live in Queensland where it will soon be 1950. I don't think the weather makes up for that.

Only the smart one's did that. Free travel to a land sunshine and laid back living. Beats the piss out of grey and rainy all the time.

This morning, FireFox (Ver 25) started to display all of the various alerts and option-menus as full-screen. I can set them back by right-clicking the top bar and selecting restore, but I can't seem to get this to stick (nor do I know how it was invoked).
Anyone out there have a clue as to how to fix this? (Premptive: not by switching to IE, Chrome, etc.)
It's quite annoying.

A high end car is 100 million lines of code? My god, that's supposed to be in the car? Or are they talking about the design and manufacturing software / equipment, etc?
Well, it's not all Ruby code BTW - apparently RoR is used only for the front end. I imagine there's quite a bit of Cobol code still lurking in those cheapskate criminal thieving lying murderous insurance companies.

I'm a .NET and c++ developer, so Java bashing is right up my alley.

The wonders of maven[^] - like nuget, and other similar tools, it makes it far to easy to add just another framework to your application. When used as they were intended they are wonderful tools, but more often than not, they are used to create SaaS (Software as a Soup) software.

Try getting a replacement for your cars main computer, some have several - a high-end workstation comes cheaper. Implementing software that complies with MISRA[^] also tends to make the size of the codebase explode, and much of the code is a result of code generation tools that translate various homegrown logic languages into c.
