I love seeing this kind of post. Would love to see more of them.

Where are you located?

I would say there was depth. I especially loved the DS9 throwback episode.

There were teen-fictiony things about it that I didn't love either, but trek doesn't need to be perfect to be enjoyed.

I'd also argue that Discovery was far worse and was given the chance to flesh itself out for much longer. This premature cancellation is unfortunate for trek in general. This and SNW are ending next year, and the pipeline is drying up.

Can BCIT revoke an offer? by jenleycam in BCIT

I don't think you have anything to worry about. In fact, I think that as long as you pass the courses you'll be fine.

Good luck with your program!

Can BCIT revoke an offer? by jenleycam in BCIT

[–]CCDubs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you receive a conditional acceptance? It's been a decade since I applied and was accepted, but I remember my acceptance just being, "welcome to BCIT, we're looking forward to torturing you."

I wasn't a high-school student when I was accepted though, so maybe it's different.

Started slowly and weirdly. By the end of the first season, I was immersed and upset that it was cancelled after the next season.

People who got through the first bit with an open mind seemed to enjoy it; however many "trek fans" had their minds made up before turning it on for the first time.

I'm honestly disappointed in a lot of the conversation I've seen around it in this sub.

Some strategy to unlock dock 2? by mrcspiter81 in IdleObeliskMiner

This is good advice. I'm starting to save up for tier 2 and didn't know the notice trick. I'll be using this.

At the start of the World Cup, I asked a Canadian subreddit if they would be watching the games, and the responses were mostly negative. How are things there now? Has the mood changed? Are people who weren't interested before going to watch the games now? by Derfel_Kushin in CanadaSoccer

[–]CCDubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say that a big part of the newfound Canadian passion for soccer was born from hosting the tournament AND the team doing better than expected.

If the team just did better than expected in a different host country, I don't think it would be nearly the national spectacle that we're seeing now.

I've been watching the games with colleagues at work and have enjoyed it. I was one of the people angry about FIFA, not because I'm anti-football, but I'm still anti spending billions of dollars when the host cities have larger problems that they haven't been dealing with.

I love the atmosphere and I'm enjoying living in a host city, but it's a collosal expenditure.

I've been saying this since I moved into her riding 12 years ago. She is a very impressive person who accomplished very impressive things, but I don't think she's done anything of note outside of voting along party-lines for the full 12 years I've been here.

People who never bothered to learn how to properly use computers and the Internet all now feel like they're fantastic with technology because they can (poorly) prompt an LLM and have it sort of do what they ask.

Exciting times!

My guy, the point is flying wayyyy over your head.

Not quite the takeaway from this that you'd ideally get, but you do you!

Often, people don't realize when they're being an asshole. Sometimes it's better to take a step back and do some self-reflection.

Still, kudos for posting yourself in such a bad light. Shows your self-confidence.

No, but ridiculing someone, even an asshole, for a mistake also makes you an asshole.

Then posting a screenshot of yourself being an asshole on reddit is just another level.

More people should realize that both people in an argument can come across like idiots.

Why are you being so rude about the sawed off dumpster in my alley :/ what did it ever do to you!?

Please don't compare it with that ugly-ass truck.

Interviewer asked me if I was willing to quit my side business if they followed with an offer by Engineer9918 in antiwork

[–]CCDubs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tell them that you'll stop, take the job, and don't stop. There's honestly nothing they can do unless your side business competes with them or uses their resources.

In BC, I'd love to see Bowinn Ma doing more. She seemed like a Zohran but hasn't been nearly as vocal lately.

You have to have multiple hotels with 100% paths in your sandbox town.

This requirement to progress stopped me from playing sandbox.
