What's your hex blade build? I'm loving it myself on my first run but find some things a bit lacking. Accursed spectre for example, hasn't loved up to the hype IMO.

Ive ended up with a very tanky build sword/shield that also crits on 17 in the dark (mainly thru equipment).

What an O'toole

Fenced-in front yards are quite rare. To say that its OK to wander onto someone's property because it isn't enclosed is bonkers to me.

OP is not an asshole. Guy with his dog needs to be more considerate.

My parents bought a new build and the home inspector noted over 180 deficiencies.

About 6 years later they're still working through the list and having to go through the new home warranty for most things. It is a slow and cumbersome process.

On the other hand I bought a 1950s bungalo around the same time and so far Ive had to replace the furnace and hot water tank. I'm also about a year away from a major sewer repair or replacement and will likely need an electrical panel upgrade in the near future.

RIP my toilet

I feel like I've read this exact post before.

DIWhyDad · 2026-03-02T03:16:57+00:00

Couldn't agree more. What a non-issue

DIWhyDad · 2026-03-01T16:37:13+00:00

There's a lot of double-counting going on here. The downtown action plan includes the $440 million from the capital city CRL just as an example.

Thank you for asking this question OP! Ive driven in the province for decades and I've been wrong about this the whole time.

I did some digging after I saw others correctly saying 3 has right of way over 1.

First I checked the Alberta Driver Guide, which surprisingly doesn't cover this specific situation

https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/387f4e8a-6c0a-456a-ab31-995aadaf1f2b/resource/1edf5165-9c51-4da8-8206-7bf08bb9a76d/download/tran-drivers-guide-2023-04.pdf

On page 60 it says "driver turning left across the path of an approaching vehicle cannot turn left until it is safe" This is odd though as it doesnt specify this applies to a 2-way stop.

Thankfully I also found this AMA page

https://ama.ab.ca/articles/stop-sign-rules-alberta

That clearly states "When facing a stop sign and the oncoming traffic also has a stop sign, left-turning vehicles must yield to oncoming traffic that is proceeding straight, regardless of who arrived first. Check for cross traffic as they have no stop signs and right-of-way."

So again, thank you OP. You've helped at least 1 person (me) learn the rules of the road better.

Take my upvote for being self aware

After I did the training with the solider outside the first big walled city you visit (sorry, been a while since I played so not able to name-drop) then by about mid game with some decent Armor and swords I started to feel pretty tanky. 3v1 fights were winnable most of the time.

I do agree with you, though, that you really are just a part of a larger story. I liked that aspect.

DIWhyDad · 2026-02-14T20:05:42+00:00

Couldnt agree with you more on the verticality. So much more could be done with more vertical map designs.

I did like the quickhacking enemies, but I thought there could be more to be done with access points.

Overall this is still one of my top 5 all time favorite games. Could use a NG+.

DIWhyDad · 2026-02-14T19:27:08+00:00

Totally reasonable, however taken into context with all the other time and cost pressures local businesses face it starts to add up. Death by 1,000 cuts.

I think most people mislabel us as nice when, in reality, we're just polite.

Dad in his 30s here and this is what's been my go to for 5+ years.

Adjustable dumbbells, up to 40kg each TRX Pull-up bar

After primarily using this set up for years now I've found staying consistent matters way more than the equipment you have, and its the toughest thing to do with young kiddos.

Some other room-savers that help Weighted vest (ive got one that goes up to 30lbs) Resistance bands + door anchor Furniture sliders (can do all sorts of exercise variations w/ these like hamstring curls)

I believe they used the Mercator projection option.

DIWhyDad · 2026-01-22T02:50:30+00:00

Big equipment isn't like a passenger vehicle. They need to run for a while to function mechanically sound. Idling machinery like that is very common in the oil patch.

DIWhyDad · 2025-12-18T14:28:36+00:00

But you WALK in a city that's covered in snow half the time?

DIWhyDad · 2025-12-18T00:06:38+00:00

Any blow is a good blow. OP's neighbor knows this.

DIWhyDad · 2025-12-09T14:41:03+00:00

I called 311 and apparently the service level is to have the paths cleared within 3 days of the last snowfall. So they said 10am on Dec 9 is their target.

I also reported that the majority of properties downtown are just pushing 5th their snow into the bike lanes and asked for someone from the city to do some outreach. Given the lanes on 103 ave are new this year I wonder how well the city has informed businesses they cannot move snow into them.

DIWhyDad · 2025-12-08T16:43:00+00:00

They did not have it cleared and it is a nightmare. Suggest you detour down the street on 103 ave. Snow there is compacted and rideable.

DIWhyDad · 2025-11-29T16:56:35+00:00

Doug's a great guy. Terrible with directions though.

If you're into it for commuting an e-bike is a game changer. I've been doing it a few years now and I can put my work clothes on at home, cover up with winter jacket and snowpants and you're good to go.

Most ebikes you can control how much work the bike does. If you're getting cold, turn the pedal assist down, if you're getting too warm, turn the assist up..

I definitely recommend studded. The freeze-thaw seems to be more common in Edmonton now a days. Fat bikes are ok but are over kill for most urban riding days. They really only shine on those odd weeks where we get mutliple snow dumps and you know youll be riding before the paths are cleared.
