  • TBA are nothing but crazy fucking losers. Can't wait to see them crumble under their own incompetence.

  • We're not talking about price increases, we're talking about discounting nearly expired food.

  • Dedicated i5 desktop running unRAID, Plex and the Arr's and I stream using my Chromecast with the Netflix button reprogrammed to launch Plex. No TV, No Streaming services and it's pure joy.

  • Safeway never did it. At least not the one I go to and I'm there 2-3 days a week. Just bought stewing beef with a 5$ off that was expiring next day.

  • So instead of paying for the rights to use it, they're going to drop the feature?

    God damn Apple are cheap fuckers.

    And they want us to pay more? Fuck Loblaws and fuck the rest;

    Atlantic Superstore, Dominion, Loblaws, Maxi, No Frills, Provigo Le Marché, Valu-Mart, Real Canadian Superstore, Wholesale Club, Your Independent Grocer and Zehrs.

  • Exactly. I watched a YT video about Vancouver's issues with stormwater because they paved over land that would have absorbed it. Not sure what they're going to do about it but it won't be cheap.

    In Calgary growth is out of control to the point new communities have major drainage issues because they didn't let the ground settle so they have massive puddles of melted snow and the city has to pay to extend all services so far from the heart of the city.

    Building houses is easy.

    Building houses properly with future considerations is hard.

  • They've converted a hotel here in Calgary to condos and a work friend owns one.

    It's not classified as affordable housing but the conversion is possible and should be done en masse.

  • Which means Bitcoin Millhouse will be practicing his attacks using this information.

  • My Canadian uncle changed the spelling of his name to Luke from Luc to avoid having to explain the differences between English and French. Also my uncle is a douche.

  • Fair point. :D

    I don't like having morning sunlight pulled from me only to gain those sunlight hours in the evening when I don't care for it. I really enjoy morning light much more so than evening light.

    My dogs also hate it because they have no idea why I'm feeding them 1 hour later than usual.

  • You know why Saskatchewan doesn't do DST? No one wants an extra hour in Saskatchewan. (Joke from my uncle in Saskatoon)

    Honestly it's a non issue because there are also US states that don't follow DST so literally nothing would happen.

    Damn the naysayers. Let's dump Daylight Savings Time.

  • Surprised your comment has positive upvotes because this thread has turned into /FuckBoomers.

    Boomers aren't the problem.
