Last night I was telling the members because of being sick most of the week I would be replaying an episode for the public show. Most of you have not heard this encounter and it is one of my favorite witnesses. John is from British Columbia. He works as a lineman and in 2006, just after first light, John was dropped off by helicopter on Tumbler ridge. From the high ground he saw what he thought was a bear but as he watched it, he realized it was not a bear. Than he saw another one, then what appeared to be smaller ones. John goes into details about what he saw and what they were doing. After sometime of observing them the creatures started to get up and scan the ridgeline almost like they knew they were being watched. John writes "Without a doubt in 2006 I watched a group of Sasquatch clear as day rolling rocks in a scree Field while working Seismic, a heli in only area. Not a doubt in my mind I watched for over 5 min easy a group or family of Sasquatch rolling rocks at the bottom edge of a scree field. I reached out to your show in early days but didn't want to sound crazy n bailed out. They were at best a half sport Field away. I was alone on what's called in the seismic world "trouble shooting". It was an hour after first light. Was dropped off by the helicopter at first light on a peak of a rolling mountain and was tasked with a line break locate with little info other than head down hill until you find line and reassess. I was equipped with a radio and gps. Long story short with little to no info of the area other than than a fly over with the heli pilot of where the line was vs where I was dropped off I was blind. Wasn't scared, wasn't shook as I was experienced at this point. Radio on but volume on .1 of zero so I could hear my environment One ish hour in to my downhill hike I came across the massive scree slides that I'd seen from the heli, as I traversed side hill in an attempt to not have to cross this huge slide using a clear gamedeer trail that followed around the rim as the slide area narrowed I could hear in the narrowing slide edge constant almost man made rocks rolling. My senses were heightened as initially I thought it was the slide slowly moving or a grizzly bear rolling rocks as I had heard stories of prior. I as silently as possible proceeded thinking I'd see nothing or a bear, radio ready in hand as protocol stated to immediately call in a bear so the helicopter pilots could come and push off the threat. To my surprise after about 20 min of my most silent approach hearing the constant sound of rolling rocks I saw (at that moment) it. Immediately I thought bears but almost instantly I knew I wasn't looking at a bear. Big downward facing head n shoulders, Breasts, long arms, long legs, hunched over, hand pinching things thumb to index like pinching bugs then to mouth. As I'm staring at this hairy female where no humans have probably ever been I see another 2 small ones less noticeable in the rocks doing the same action. I watched for a solid 3 or 4 minutes knowing my LG chocolate phone would only snap a black blob on grey rocks. Then from the most narrow edge of the screen Field comes a an fn massive female, twice as big easy, same attributes but less athletic and more warn. Head as big as my chest. Bends over and same action, within 20 seconds I hear a small animal squeal and the big female has something in its hand and everyone of them popped up and looked but within one second a massive male (dick swinging) breaks the same area where the big female came from right up beside the big female and snatched the whatever rodent from her and immediately ate it. I couldn't see what it was but he put it in his mouth. Without a missed beat (Almost immediately) all three larger ones stood up tall n were scanning and sniffing, I pancaked in that moment, pressed my radio n said quietly bear bear bear which is taken very seriously. Within a minute a had a helicopter buzzing my area feet above the trees in a super aggressive manor I watched all 5 dispatch at the same time I heard the helicopter inbound. They headed down ish and I only thought to head back to the helipad. I ran but as quietly as I could. I made it back in about the same time it took me to get down. Once I was on the helicopter I told the pilot what I saw and his neck snapped towards me and said I fn knew it. I knew what I saw, you're not crazy, we shouldn't be here ect. Long story short after that everyone went out in groups."

Patrocinador: La nueva temporada del podcast de Banco Sabadell sigue manteniendo un gran nivel con entrevistas increíbles en los que aprenderéis un montón, con nuevos episodios cada semana. — Web, iVoox, Apple, Spotify. Chia pone en peligro los precios del almacenamiento / Ciberataques a NAS / ... al gobierno de España / Animatrónico de Disney / El fútbol británico protesta en Twitter / Derechos de compra digitales  Chia es un nuevo modelo de cadena de bloques basado en cálculos en almacenamiento. Está siendo desarrollado por un equipo liderado por Bram Cohen, creador del protocolo BitTorrent, y hace unas semanas abrió su versión estable para los "granjeros", el término que usan en vez de "mineros".  Según sus cálculos, consume menos electricidad porque usa "Prueba de Espacio", un concepto que se basa en mantener masivas cantidades de almacenamiento llenos de cadenas cifradas.  Y claro, aunque la criptomoneda asociada está siendo objeto de pre-especulación, con estos "granjeros" comprando en masa todos los SSD y NVME de 4 y 8 TB que pueden encontrar, y acabando con el stock en China. — En Amazon España no veo de momento alza de precios, con el MP400, por ejemplo por debajo de 600 euros.  Los equipos NAS de QNAP están en peligro por dos ransonware. La compañía está trabajando en un parche, y aconseja a los usuarios cambiar los puertos de acceso por defecto y establecer claves de acceso más complejas. No me queda claro qué dispositivos específicamente están afectados.  Nueva oleada de ataques digitales al gobierno de España. Durante varias horas estuvieron inaccesibles varios sistemas y webs internos y públicos del Ministerio de Justicia, de Educación o de Economía. Fueron los propios técnicos los que apagaron los sistemas tras detectar los intentos de penetración.  Parece que el objetivo se trata del sistema SARA (Sistemas de Aplicaciones y Redes para las Administraciones), la infraestructura digital que conecta las redes de las Administraciones Públicas Españolas e Instituciones Europeas.  Disney presenta un prototipo de su animatrónico de libre movimiento. Caracterizado como el personaje de Groot de una de sus franquicias más exitosas, se esconde un desarrollo muy complejo de un robot bípedo capaz de moverse libremente (vídeo) en el que la división de I+D de Disney lleva años trabajando.  El objetivo es que pueda circular libremente por los parques temáticos interactuando con el público. Una precuela del Westworld de Michael Crichton, o quizá de Rascapiquilandia.  El dominio argentino de Google no estaba caducado. Parece que fue un fallo de programación o de seguridad en los sistemas del NIC.ar, lo cual añade otra capa de misterio al enredo. Ni el NIC ni Google han dado mayores explicaciones.  Otro día más, otro vuelo más de Ingenuity. El tercer día de pruebas exitoso del dron marciano acaba con un desplazamiento de 50 metros de ida y 50 de vuelta a cinco metros sobre el suelo, y con una velocidad aproximada de dos metros por segundo. Suave como la seda (vídeo).  Un castor deja sin Internet a un pueblo en Canadá. Casi 1.000 personas en Tumbler Ridge, en la Columbia Británica, quedaron sin Internet este sábado durante la madrugada porque un grupo de castores sacó y cortó el cable de fibra óptica principal del suelo durante la construcción de una presa.  He usado un hamster como emoji porque no hay emoji de castor. Por favor, no os deis de baja por este motivo. No es mi culpa :-(  Los clubes de fútbol británico boicotearán Twitter para protestar por el acoso a los jugadores. Llevan años pidiendo medidas más efectivas contra los insultos por parte de aficionados propios y rivales, especialmente los raciales. De momento anuncian que comenzarán con un apagón de cuatro días a partir del 30 de abril.  AMD soluciona un bug que permitía a bots comprar sus GPU online. La web oficial de AMD incluye ciertas medidas anti-automatización, para dificultar el trabajo a los revendedores que se aprovechan de la alta demanda, pero se dejaron abierto un sencillo paso que permitía enviar peticiones ilimitadas para añadirlas al carrito de la compra.  Un colegio español castiga al informático que encontró material pedófilo en el ordenador del rector. Informó a la policía inmediatamente, que entró en las instalaciones educativas para recoger el portátil y levantar acta, antes de detener al sospechoso. La dirección del colegio le acusa de haber incumplido la cláusula de confidencialidad y dañado la reputación del colegio.  Excelente hilo de P. Duchement, que trae más detalles sobre este tipo de casos. Podéis escuchar el episodio de Kernel donde nos cuenta consejos para padres sobre el acoso digital a menores.  Dos demandas judiciales para examinar el límite de las compras digitales. Apple cierra la cuenta de usuario de un cliente que pierde acceso a casi 25.000 dólares de contenido entre software y multimedia. Amazon tiene un juicio parecido en progreso. Quizá la situación acabe con jurisprudencia y obligue a un cambio profundo en este modelo de comercio.

In 2000, Mark Turner and Daniel Helm were tubing down the rapids of Flatbed Creek just below Tumbler Ridge. As they walked up the shoreline excitement began to build as they quickly recognized a series of regular depressions as dinosaur footprints. Their discovery spurred an infusion of tourism and research in the area and the birth of the Peace Region Palaeontology Society and Dinosaur Centre. The Hudson's Hope Museum has an extensive collection of terrestrial and marine fossils from the area. They feature ichthyosaurs, a marine reptile and hadrosaur tracks. The tracks the boys found were identified the following year by Rich McCrae as those of a large quadrupedal dinosaur, Tetrapodosaurus borealis, an ichnotaxon liked to ankylosaurs. The dinosaur finds near Tumbler Ridge are significant. Several thousand bone fragments have been collected, recorded and now reside within the PRPRC collections, making for one of the most complete assemblages for dinosaur material from this age.

Loser Irresponsible dog owners at Vancouver's Mountain View Cemetery The City of Vancouver is asking dog owners to "be respectful" while walking in Mountain View Cemetery after receiving a number of complaints about abandoned poo. A sign at the East Vancouver burial ground addresses dog owners directly, reminding them that "family, friends and visitors come here for funerals and to pay respect to those who have been laid to rest." "You must remove from the cemetery any excrement deposited by the dog," it reads. But a picture that was recently shared on Reddit shows half a dozen bags of leftover dog poo in the cemetery. "This is unbelievably rude because so many cemeteries don't even allow dogs and then people are out here pulling this," one commenter wrote. "I thought Canadians were better than this." Winner Kevin and Birgit Sharman from Tumbler Ridge, BC Kevin and Birgit Sharman have never watched a full episode of Game of Thrones, but the Tumbler Ridge couple say they're fans now. The duo has attracted international attention after discovering one of six replica Iron Thrones hidden around the globe as a part of an HBO promotional contest touting the eighth and final season of the fantasy epic.

Ryan Bowie, 34, was ice climbing with a friend in the remote backcountry near their home in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia. When Ryan set up a rappel from the top of a vertical ice wall, the highly experienced climber made a series of bad judgments, resulting in a terrifying plunge that could have ended a lot worse. In this episode, Ryan reflects on what went wrong that day. The Sharp End is presented by Mammut, with additional support from Colorado Outward Bound School and Health IQ. This podcast is produced by the American Alpine Club.
