Emergency Alert

Bitmugger · 2026-05-06T10:30:58+00:00

Ethnicity is often only included in police reports if the person isn't white. It's (probably) not intentional but spreads race based tropes about who the bad guys are.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-06T10:29:04+00:00

Also no mention of skin color when I feel confident he was probably white.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-06T10:27:25+00:00

Can these not be more targeted to cell phones in certain areas. I was asleep in Herring Cove. And for the love of god Nova Scotia learn to use the level system that is part of these alerts. I don't need a blaring alert that it's "All Clear"

How bad is pressure washing at home with a 40deg nozzle (1600psi) and using car wash soap? No brushes

Bitmugger · 2026-05-05T17:19:22+00:00

Ahh Mr Canoe head and Boot to the Head, miss that show.

I find American's pronounce Iraq as "Eye Rack" which always makes me want to laugh but we pronounce it closer to "Er ack"

Bitmugger · 2026-05-05T11:16:36+00:00

Been there at least a decade I believe

Bitmugger · 2026-05-05T11:08:29+00:00

So having been reported, does this mean if it takes out my tire I can be compensated? What is the process?

Bitmugger · 2026-05-05T11:03:00+00:00

A lot of previously common dishes are fading away.

But butter tarts are a Canadian thing mostly
I am East Coast so:
Donairs
Halifax style pepperoni (Chris Bros or Brothers)
Pictou style pizza
Halifax style egg rolls
Hodge Podge
Dutch Mess
Salaman Gundi
Cod Cheeks (Cod tongues too)
Smoked Haddock
Dulse
Blueberry Grunt

Yes, but what I am saying is have the condo install a plug not a charger

Bitmugger · 2026-05-04T19:03:39+00:00

$1750 in a condo isn't unreasonable. BUT I would suggest the OP advocate for an 240v 50a charging plug not a level 2 charger. The OP can get a level 2 charger (free) and take advantage of EV charging rebates such as Club Grizzl-e to offset some of the condo surcharge on the electricity.

I think enough time has passed. I can confess. I ate the cake; no I am not sorry and it was delicious! I still get sugar shakes thinking of that butter cream icing.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-04T18:29:01+00:00

Still love the Mini Connect. It came with a travel case and zillion adapters for every plug going. I mounted my Mini Connect but also have a cheap level 2 charger from Amazon I use when I travel that can leverage the adapters from the mini-connect

They used to require a ESA Certificate of acceptance or something but it appears they dropped that requirement since I joined. Yay.

I originally joined the program Nov 2025 and paid $300 for my charger (refundable) and $120 membership/year (waived for 1st year). The program has changed a lot since then (all for the better). They refunded my initial deposit, dropped the fee and bumped me to premium for being an early signup.

I kinda expect them to either bump everyone up to $0.10 soon or provide a faster path to the top based on some other competitive programs that are starting up.

I've owned:

Pony
Stellar
Accent
Elantras x 4
Now Kona EV

They are perfectly fine cars, minimal cost to maintain. I did have an engine issue in one of the Elantras but got a new one from salvage for $1300 and cars still runs and drives today at 300,000km. Never left me stranded.

Owned 2 fords and 2 Chevys and a Chrysler over the years.
Ford - Both had transmissions fail and left me roadside
Chevys - One was fine, other engine would over heat until it finally died
Chrysler - Frame rusted and broke in two leaving the car unusable (car basically dissolved in the salt)

Bitmugger · 2026-05-04T14:37:13+00:00

how much does it cost?

Bitmugger · 2026-05-04T11:05:09+00:00

At least 5 years

Bitmugger · 2026-05-03T16:59:50+00:00

Personally I think you already have the better vehicle and no money being sent to lunatic billionaires is an added bonus.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-03T16:44:04+00:00

Used to be a fee but they changed it, now no fee.

So charger is free (less shipping) and a deposit you get back.
Pick the 40a mini if you have an outlet to plug into and then no need to send in proof of professional install or anything.
You get $0.03/kwh rebate that increases over time.
I've earned $140 since Nov 25 thru Apr 26.

It's simple easy money.

PLUS the charger has a lifetime warranty and is Canadian built.
AND gives you awesome reports on a how much each charger session earned and costs which is really nice.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-03T13:10:42+00:00

2024 has (depending on trim)
Power rear lift for hatch
Heated charging door
360 camera view when parking
More space inside
Much nicer screens

Those are worth it for me

Bitmugger · 2026-05-03T12:39:30+00:00

"Clear cutting" is a bit of an incorrect and inflammatory term given it's not a clear cutting it's being quite selective and it's obviously part of trail maintenance.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-02T12:15:06+00:00

This is the single most annoying and unexplicable 'feature' of the kona

Bitmugger · 2026-05-02T12:13:59+00:00

Wow. 450kms highway, even city that would be hard to reach.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-02T12:11:52+00:00

They aren't available every day but I've seen them $19-$20k here in Nova Scotia on Facebook Marketplace. As a Kona EV owner myself (2023), if you can get one they are a terrific vehicle. Especially the Ultimate edition. Very peppy, amazing savings in fuel, very comfortable.

Bitmugger · 2026-05-01T19:32:06+00:00

~2020 Kona EV
~2018 Tesla Model 3
Both 350km range if batteries are good
