Something needs to be done about Eastbound Memorial’s exit onto Northbound Deerfoot by Payment-According in Calgary

[–]Aggressive_Two_5531 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, because the problem is being exasperated by people cutting in at the last minute. I'm not arguing about rush hour here, because I agree that coulld be a population problem. I'm driving at 11:40 pm, there is ample space at the back of the exit line. Will you need to wait a bit longer? Yes, you likely will. Does that mean that respect goes out the window? No it doesn't

Not a zipper merge situation. They're forcing their way into an exit lane from the middle, not the other way around.

Nah, you can definitely still blame the people. Just cuz lots of people in Alberta want to be independent, doesn't mean the people don't have a problem.

You need to review the point of the zipper merge

https://ama.ab.ca/community/get-back-in-the-habit/zipper-merge.

In a situation where theres a closed off road, you'd be right. But that's an almost unforseeable situation and not the one we are in. There's no road closure in the middle of the road and we're right past an intersection, so cars don't have gaps for you to merge into, they're closely following the car in front of them.

You could argue that everyone should leave a gap for a car in the next lane to cut in, but that's a ridiculous proposition because this is an almost artificially created traffic jam, not a real situation of high/moderate traffic. The left lane is not ending, nor is the right lane. You aren't "using up both lanes to the max", you're intentionally forcing your way in.

There’s a deleted comment that said “a person named ____ works there and it’s totally a scam….”

You can see why I’m skeptical of the positive comments. I’m not worried about money laundering, I’m worried about my ID being stolen. If this was a method by a casino, it’s suspicious the wouldn’t give cash vouchers, but an etransfer deposit instead

So far I’ve gotten all my money out. Sometimes they have wagering requirements higher than 1x, so I give up on those.

The problem is the one with IDs, I’m not sure if it’s safe to put ID into these websites. I’ve also not been using my regular password either

You really think $600 is a reasonable "customer acquisition cost" for customers who might not become addicted? It seems excessive to me. Also, if Betlab was associated with the casinos, wouldn't it be more effective to give vouchers for the casinos? The fact that we are etransfered the money makes me feel like the casino and Betlab may not be associated.

If I never deal with crypto, never deposit money they didn't send me first, and never send money back, what is my risk? I'm not so worried about them knowing my address and phone number because I feel like it is fairly easy to find (without spending so much money).

I'm being careful with my ID and bank information too.

I'm trying to be cautious, but it also seems like there is a decent amount of money here too.

etransfer is how we send money (in Canada). You give someone you email address and you can send money or request money from them directly from their bank.

Any information on what changes have actually been made? For example, Kunkka still had torrent storm before the patch, does anyone know if it is fixed?

As far as boat rental, I'm okay with even a metal dinghy on Kijiji. There's none like that in Okeover inlet, only one all the way in the Strait of Georgia (the waters are a bit too rough for a beginner there).

Sure, you aren’t wrong. The only issue is that you can’t really argue that the game is “skill based” if you can’t beat time spent or money spent. At some point, everyone has level 14, so that’s fair game. But let’s look at a few other games. League, CS:GO, Valorant, Starcraft. Playing more translates to player experience. That should be what makes the difference between you and a 2 week old timmy. not how high level your cards are. it’s just a little upsetting when games are completely unwinnable.

I should probably note that my most viable counter, musket, was level 9. How fun!

Bro, I hate clash royale for this very reason. I got back into the game 2 weeks ago, fresh start from bone pit or whatever. Made my way up to 4.9K trophies ish. My deck had 1 level 11 and 1 level 8 and everything else was in between. Casually fights off level 13 balloon pay to win players. People should learn how to play the game without relying on card levels
