  • People will drive whatever speed they feel comfortable and if you actually want them to drive slower then build the roads accordingly for said speed

    You got that exactly right, but instead of advocating for that you've chosen instead to complain that the speed limits should be made higher.

  • We need better infill policies.

    My fear is that we're going to have huge amounts of federal funding coming in to municipalities to build massive swaths of suburban sprawl in the name of additional housing, putting more fuel on the fire that is car dependence.

    Even new developments that have "mixed-use" multifamily are depressing to be in when they're completely isolated from the rest of the city and you can only go in or out with a car.

  • The rationale in the OP is that with archinstall, an inexperienced user will have no idea where to even begin diagnosing any issues post install. Whereas installing manually is sort of a barrier to entry that ensures you know what you're doing.

  • When Below Zero came out it was clear that they had no idea what made Subnautica special, something that a sequel had no hope of replicating. Fear of the unknown and the drive to explore deeper. Once you've completed Subnautica you are a god of the sea, and that knowledge and experience cannot be lost.

    Mobius Digital was able to make a successful DLC for Outer Wilds because they understood what made their game work, which is the player's own curiosity.

  • For the sake of anonymity, I'll let it slip that I'm also in Manitoba although outside Winnipeg.

    Would you be able to speak more on what it takes to be involved with a coop? Like I guess that once the building is finished and all the residents are settled, the board is more focused on budgeting and maintenance projects?

    I'm a solo homeowner but I'd gladly give up the absolute control over my own decisions to have more security in a collective.

  • I'm curious to see if Build Canada Homes is going to include any kind of support for non-market or co-operative housing. I looked it up last year to see what the requirements are to secure funding from CMHC, and I found that unless you're an established developer, and/or have considerable pockets, and/or already own significant areas of empty land, it just isn't feasible to start a new housing co-op from scratch. The barrier to entry is too large.

    It should be made easier for smaller co-operatives to get started with buildings under 10 units to better fit as urban infill instead of the current requirement of 32+ units which would need to get pushed to the outskirts of the city where land is cheaper and more available.

  • Do you guys remember driving down the highway in the 90's and having your car absolutely covered in the mangled corpses of insects? To the point where wiper fluid is called bug wash?

    I don't know if this is the same everywhere, but my car stays pretty clean these days.
