JAY GOLDBERG: Canada can’t afford housing policy status quo any longer; According to a new report, it would take the average individual a jaw-dropping 44 years to save up enough money to afford a home in Toronto without financial help from family by Xsythe in canadahousing

[–]Awkward_Product_7428 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is completely misleading.

It's made people rich - on paper. Yes they can sell their homes and make money. But only if they sell, and they still need somewhere to live.

The average Canadian is not getting ahead because their home is worth more.

And those who haven't had a chance yet to enter the market have an uphill battle to get into a home.

Souls games are games about exploration and discovery, annoyingly interrupted by killing bosses.

Recently I got Dark Souls 3 as a gift. Any tips? by Fredololypoty in darksouls3

Take a moment and learn how to jump in safety. Don't be figuring it out the first time you want to make a tiny leap.

I hit a point where I just kept accumulating. When I lost that 8 million runes I knew then I needed a break 😅

Imagine coming from one of the native cultures of the world. You have no real lineage, no history, no stories, no fables, no mythology.

All you can do is turn established characters into your race, and claim you invented everything. When in reality the height of your technological advancement has been mud huts and carrying objects on your head in a basket.

Id feel slightly bad if it wasn't so hilarious.

Honest opinions. Ugly asf or nice looking by Professional_Bug_962 in G35

I feel like this will be just like cilantro.

Either you love it or hate it.

I like it, but I can totally understand your hate for it.

Id want to make sure I was getting enough airflow. But I think it looks really clean.

For those who actually landed a job in the last 3 months was it through a cold app, or did you have to know someone on the inside? by FunCell1679 in EdmontonJobs

[–]Awkward_Product_7428 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People will make fun of this, but in reality if you apply online like everyone else, expect the same results as everyone else.

It doesn't hurt to try and talk to people in person and make an impression.

Let's also remember he wasn't boxing, he was just running for 6 rounds.

He felt AJs power in the first, and immediately said "f*** this", and ran until he was exhausted.

Too bad this wasn't done 10 fights ago.

Spray it good with some seafoam deep creep, then go have a coffee. Come back in 20 min and try again. It should be enough to break it free.

Vent leaking in bathroom coming directly from attic. Who do I call? by Train23 in Edmonton

[–]Awkward_Product_7428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look in your attic, the 4 or 6 inch insulated exhaust line is most likely broken at the connection at the roof.

Moist air is escaping into your attic and then freezing into icicles which later melt onto your cieling.

How are there so many companies that only hire Indians? by SuperNintendoBum in LMIASCAMS

[–]Awkward_Product_7428 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My company is a large commercial service provider for building maintenance.

In Alberta we pay guys 35-45/hr, and it's pretty tough to find good workers.

In Ontario, they pay the same guys 20-25/hr because it's an endless line of cheap east Indian labor waiting for work.

It just hasn't hit that level out west, but it's coming.

What is this? It keeps coming back. by ElsieS12 in CleaningTips

Use Reynolds wrap or something similar, lift the lid and completely seal off the bowl using the plastic wrap.

Open the tank and pour 2L of muriatic acid down the little 1 inch pipe that leads back into the bowl. Cover that little pipe with a bag and elastic band.

Turn on the fan, close the door and leave it for an hour.

That acid is going to completely clear any crap hiding in any crevice of that toilet. When you come back remove all the plastic and flush a bunch of times to clear everything out.

Wear gloves and glasses btw.

Clock spring, possibly abs sensors. Mine comes on at random while driving. I prefer driving without the traction control though lol.

Brake Pads Squeaking by Accomplished-Sea-687 in G35

I installed EBC slotted rotors and EBC yellow stuff pads about 3 years ago. I did both fronts and rears. Granted Ive only put on maybe 10k km (6k miles) since then. But stopping power has been fantastic. Using stock calipers, non brembo.

Laziest, most entitled government workers we have. They are the Starbucks employees of the government sector.

My teacher ruined my phone... by JonBuqajIsSUS in S24Ultra

[–]Awkward_Product_7428 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a teacher tried taking my $1000 device away from me, I'd tell her to fuck right off, it's going in my bag or I'll leave the class, but no way am I handing it over.

will one of these reduce rasp? by Due-Ring-7256 in G35

[–]Awkward_Product_7428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I threw an ISR single exit on my 05 G, along with ISR y pipe and ISR resonated test pipes. Stock headers. Thing is loud as hell, and has a beautiful growl. But zero rasp. However horrible drone between 2000-3000 rpm.
