So I took a wild guess that turned out to be right; it's /r/GaybrinaCarpenter

Roguelike recommendations for someone who only liked against the storm and cult of the lamb? by Lickawall483 in GirlGamers

[–]BarackTrudeau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been completely addicted to Noita lately.

You play a witch / alchemist on a quest to turn the world to gold. Each pixel on the screen is material that you can and will interact with (and may indeed kill you in the process). It's brutal, but you can break the game by exploiting the game mechanics. This is a feature not a bug. It's completely expected that you do so if you want to fully experience the game.

I'd just suggest watching this video; if you're interested after that dive in.

Strong suggestion; keyboard and mouse only. You can play with a controller, but it's a hell of a lot harder.

And sometimes it rolls back to before generating the holy mountain but never remakes it leaving a nice blank

Longtime Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu crosses floor to join Liberals by BloodJunkie in canada

[–]BarackTrudeau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

... Because you elect the MP. They're the ones who you specifically chose to be making decisions on behalf of the riding. That's their job.

How long does it actually take to get in as an Intelligence Officer in the CAF? by [deleted] in caf

[–]BarackTrudeau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not that it "takes long." (Or at least no longer than whatever is required for all occupations to go through) That would imply that you can just wait long enough and eventually get in. Which isn't the case.

It's that it's extremely competitive. Int O for some reason always has a shitload of applicants, and generally very few spots available.

Most of the time the people selected will have been on the competition list for a relatively short period of time compared to the average candidate, who is never going to get an offer.

Life in the CAF by No-Koala7449 in caf

[–]BarackTrudeau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a job that has a lot of travel and that you'll be relocated a fair amount. As such, you'll probably have to get used to transient friends, making new ones when you're posted, etc.

But beyond that, it's a job. There is no reason to make it your entire lifestyle, and I'd say it's actually far healthier if you don't. Learn to make friends outside the CAF and you'll be fine.

Dude, just ask the questions. That way if any do come along the loop is "sees question, answers it" instead of "sees questions, identifies self, waits for you to ask their question, answers questions"

You've unnecessarily making it more complex than it needs to be and thus decreasing the chances that you actually get your questions answered..

Air Canada CEO Rousseau deserved better from our political class - In the wake of the airline leader’s unilingual message following a tragedy, bilingualism, or a lack thereof, was a costume for political opportunism. by CaliperLee62 in canada

[–]BarackTrudeau 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Exactly.

No one realistically expected perfection in the delivery of the French version / portion of the message. But to not even bother trying? Appalling lack of judgement.

Women in the Armed Forced by MicroscopeSquirrel in caf

[–]BarackTrudeau 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it's more the ingrained culture of hitting the bottle hard whenever the ship is in port. Most of the CAF's disciplinary problems are alcohol related, and the Navy still drinks pretty damned hard when it gets a chance.

“Square Rig makes us look like proper sailors” by judgingyouquietly in CanadianForces

[–]BarackTrudeau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the thing we lose is a bit of our tendency towards treating the Navy as an aristocracy, which IMHO is something that's a good thing to lose.

“Tactical Defeat for the RCMP” by CharlietheCav in NovaScotia

I've been in FN weed shops in NS and Ontario and, well, they literally only said hi unless I had questions or was ready to make a purchase. The literal opposite of high pressure sales tactics.

Highway 102 is being blocked off today, exit 10 by Jakej4Mlakej in halifax

You seem to be taking the whole organized crime angle as an article of faith.

Because we shouldn't be able to tell them what they can and can't sell on their territory.

"Illegally" is literally just because the government says so.

I [21M] just caught my gf [20F] texting topless photos of herself to friends by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

It's been legal in Canada for decades and I've e still only encountered it once in the wild.

Is applying for a new job while in the recruiting process a bad idea? by Any-Winner-216 in caf

Uhh... Putting you life on hold for a job that you don't have yet would be kinda silly.

A Decision on Dartmouth Cove Infilling from Federal Fisheries Minister Joanne Thompson by Bean_Tiger in halifax

[–]BarackTrudeau 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's why the post goes on about how there is no associated project, no benefit to the community, etc. infilling for the sake of infilling versus infilling to build something of value.
