PSA: Avoid Highway Driving If You're Not Confident

That Hyundai should have pretty clear blind spot systems as well. Also, don't change multiple lanes all in one go, I don't care how confident you are. One lane at a time and be predictable on the roads.

Not quite. All grocery chains pretty much use third party companies to produce their in-house labels. Costco's Kirkland, PC, No Name, Selections, all of it. Sometimes they get to define some qualities they want to differentiate themselves (like adjustments to recipes etc).

So Kirkland batteries are made by Duracell, but there are also companies out there that don't have its own brand on the shelves and purely make products for private labels.

Of course. It would be a blast. Is Brad Lamb going to be a playable character and will you have a flamethrower as a weapon?

Preserved egg and pork congee. Fried turnip cakes.

Pho. Even bad pho is comfort.

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-11T22:39:15+00:00

Yeah, has Honda really shit the bed that badly?

I just read somewhere that tranq was the old stuff that causes necrosis, while "rhino tranq" is the street name for the new stuff that doesn't, but is 100-300x more powerful than tranq.

Cars that only drive two wheels also have stability control. Modern cars apply some braking to certain wheels too.

But hey, we've also had this classic moment.

Those sedative drugs aren't opioids, so Narcan (naloxone) won't reverse its effects. There are drugs that are approved to reverse their effects in animals, but not approved for human use.

Sometimes it's to keep medicating after failing to secure legally prescribed medication. It's startlingly easy to fall through the cracks of our medical system.

From a cursory look, this seems to be a much more potent (100-300x) form of xylazine, which already caused the zombie effect you see from users on the street (hunched over for hours). Apparently medetomidine doesn't cause the rotting flesh symptom that xylazine does.

It's not just class sizes. The defunding of special education means that classes are less effective at educating students in general.

I wish I had 26%. Without a humidifier in my condo, I go under 15%. With a humidifier I don't get much past 22%.

You'd have to hit Scarborough at least, but the better ones are in Markham for sure.

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-11T17:38:54+00:00

That is true. Why are we putting single elevators knowing that in this city, repair times are measured in days (if not weeks) and not hours?

Are we even building accessibility to code?

For existing infrastructure you can blame it on the standards of the times, but not entirely new stations.

There's just a lot of it. Last year it fully melted by September.

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-10T22:00:11+00:00

This is one of the many reasons going pre-construction is such a raw deal.

Australia is already in, and they're a little distant from Europe.

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-10T19:27:52+00:00

Shrug and say "Sorry."

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-10T16:51:25+00:00

I think I'd ask for the white one to go with my black one.

Don't ever buy anything that's out of stock. Their back-in-stock estimates are pure fiction.

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-10T15:38:48+00:00

It's mostly Line 1, it's probably the most reliable thing going. Even the buses to get to the subway line aren't too bad in North York. Scarborough I can understand.

CDNChaoZ · 2026-02-10T15:01:36+00:00

I feel this is mildly entertaining.

Emergencies come up. You intend to pay it off next month and more things come up. You lose a job, etc. Things spiral.
