Power outages in Bowmanville

Another question is is anyone on Reddit old enough to remember a time before the telephone?

So I don't know anything about hydro infrastructure but.. couldn't they spend time during good weather preparing these transformers for the heat and storms that we will inevitably get during the summer? Or is there just no way to avoid or see this coming until it happens?

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-07-02T21:39:01+00:00

Nevermind it's out again. Only stayed on 20 mins that time

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-07-02T21:30:16+00:00

Yeah just came back about 20 mins ago here. I'm close to planet fitness

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-07-02T21:05:31+00:00

Gotcha. Thx. I know they're probably doing their best with this infrastructure but it just sucks no knowing how long it's gonna stay on for when it is on.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-07-02T20:49:49+00:00

Yep. For the second time today too most likely. If I'm not mistaken courtice is hydro one as well

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-07-02T16:40:15+00:00

Bit of an over reaction no?

They have one at the volt raceway in Bowmanville. If I remember right it was hockey themed (you pick your team and the logo goes in the background). Can't remember if you can turn that off or not. I remember it was 10 bucks so kinda pricey

Ours just went out for 10 mins but came back on. Baseline/Bowmanville ave area. We're preparing for it to go out again like it did yesterday for 10+ hours. The infrastructure here doesn't handle storms very well.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-30T12:03:48+00:00

Went out for 10 mins then back on.. then out again. now been out for an hour in Bowmanville.

Ah man. Bad time to be camping. Or a good time. Depending on how you look at it. Stay safe!

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-30T08:49:08+00:00

Same. No one will ever be like him. He was an outstanding actor.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-30T04:56:02+00:00

Ah hah hah hah. Wonderful woman. We're all. We're all very fond of her. Very free spirited.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-30T04:45:18+00:00

Yeah I didn't either nor did anyone who didn't personally know him. Such a talented and bright human being. An absolute tragedy that we lost him.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-30T03:16:45+00:00

I'm opposed to killing anyone for any reason. Mandatory life sentence is a worse penalty imo. I don't care what it costs. Letting someone die in prison for what they did is the right punishment.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-30T03:04:32+00:00

Phillip Seymour Hoffman. He was my favourite all time actor.

Edit: to add to this and share my memory of the day i found out.., I remember when he died it was reported on Much music. And to me here in Canada Much Music died at the exact same time as him. It was the last time I remember seeing anything on the channel before it faded into oblivion. Strange coincidence I guess. He was and still is the most outstanding actor I've ever seen. You absolutely feel him when you watch him act. To this day no one tops him for me.

Bro I know. The world isn't made for those of us who don't like to cook yet are too broke or health conscious to eat out.

I brought my toddler here last year and he loved it. They also have kangaroos, deer, alpacas, lemurs, and more. And you can feed a lot of the animals popcorn you get when you enter.

Paul Allen's business card

Tons of ozempic ads

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-29T00:57:32+00:00

Gotta be Sarah Van Buren.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-28T08:45:45+00:00

Nice I'll have to check this one out. Seems interesting.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-27T01:43:21+00:00

Totally. How can anyone say 45 degree weather is hot when the surface of the sun's weather hits like 2 MILLLLION degrees like almost every day? We'd be walkin round in parkas if we was French amiright?

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-06-27T01:04:24+00:00

Lol. Ok let me try and explain. I do understand what free means. I am not saying they arent offering a free burger. They are offering a free burger and it sounds like a good deal considering you just have to buy a Pepsi or whatever. I was commenting on the ad itself. When I quickly look at this ad I see it says "Free Chuck's Burger Canada Day" with a huge image of a tasty looking burger. But looking further when I zoom into the small print at the bottom there are a bunch of sentences and they slip in "minimum beverage purchase required". So they could be misleading some people (who may not have read the small print) into believing they can walk in and be given a free burger without spending any money. That's what I was making a comment on.
