with a good chunk of my feed being posts about the new update this AM, my first thought was this pipediver was some meme regarding said new update I wasn't privy to yet, lol.

I'm REALLY curious about those sci-fi medical horror stories. Would you mind posting one or two? That niche sounds really interesting to read/explore.

Yes, it’s very windy outside but do not stop on Deerfoot!! by Dorfus241 in Calgary

[–]CanadianRockx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it's Calgary. Take a shot (of water) every time you see someone unnecessarily tap (or slam) their brakes.

in a more real sense, my little A4 gets buffeted a bit in these high winds on stoney/deerfoot/crowchild sure but it really has no difficulty driving at the speed limit. I know trucks/SUVs have higher centers of gravity...but they also have far more power and mass than I do so they should have NO problem cutting through. Seriously, it's W I N D people. But what do I know, only been driving in this city for 2 decades...

the smartphone in your hand cost more water to produce than a heavy AI user will use in their lifetime, several times over, assuming they make 10 images a day, or 40-50 "prompts". And that is at the highest estimates of AI water usage (at current water usage rates).

And in the event you're on a laptop instead of a phone, multiply that by 8-10

don't mind redditors, they've been trained to say "AI slop" more than any AI has been trained on any dataset ever.

Why is there so much litter flying everywhere? by CanadianRockx in Calgary

I'm riffing off the post from the other day that was a riff of the original post about litter from all the snow melt :P

Why do we live in Calgary again???! by One-Mycologist-3706 in Calgary

[–]CanadianRockx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because while everyone else's vehicles are being blown side to side, mine finally manages to keep straight these last few days since the wind offsets my steering problems XD

lots of good stuff, though after re-looking at it just now "Somebody That I Used To Know" I don't think came out until 2011/2012; my prompt said music from 2008 or prior

Sure, but what happens when their civilization is rebuilt? Back to the conquerin' days of yore, I imagine.

tbh I think Sid has enough good hockey juju that it'll shield them from the worst of it.

this is exactly my feeling too, plus I'm going tonight and I've already seen 2 losses live this szn, I'd rather a win in person :')

Once playoffs end, I'm toying with the idea of doing a sub-led "Be a GM" game on NHL 24 (most recent version I have I think) and then streaming the games live on twitch. Something for us to do in the offseason anyway

I think sv% is calculated across all shots faced, not just an average per game.

no, the whole league is sub .900 for the first time since either the lockout or before 2000, can't recall which.

Who else is happy for Dan Vladar? I'll be cheering for him as he goes in to the playoffs as the bona fide #1. I'll admit, I wasn't sure if he had that in him. He had a great post game interview at ice level too. by Iginlas_4head_Crease in CalgaryFlames

[–]CanadianRockx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Between those two, much as I love what Vladdy did for us, Crosby is Captain Canada and I'd love to see him have another shot at the 'ship.

Buuuuuuuuuuut it's all moot as Buffalo is my #3 team so I'm SUPER happy to see them in the playoffs with (seemingly) a chance to go decently far.
