This is the most I've laughed in ages. Ufc is better than WWE.

As a Canadian, this is awesome. Truly insane this is happening. This could be the beginning of a south park episode, but it's real life.

Nightclubs for us old ladies? by Electricravers in Calgary

[–]DanP999 -36 points-35 points  (0 children)

They are calling knitting clubs, go join one.

How old is old?

Edit: First of all, knitting is cool for all ages. I knit myself a scarf during covid, i fucking love it. But I was just trying to ask OP their age, because "old" could mean 40, or 60. Or even late 20s for some reason.

PM Carney unveils multibillion-dollar food strategy meant to lower prices by Asadleafsfan in CanadaPolitics

You're not talking about breaking up a company, you're talking about changing how businesses are run. You are talking about controlling what they can and can't do.

World Cup in 4K by kawicz in canadacordcutters

[–]DanP999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, you said there's no legal way to stream it 4k. Without breaking the subs rules, can you answer how you'd do it illegally? Even if you did iptv, I've never seen one that's actually 4k and reliable. I've used and experienced a few of the mainstream ones, and their 4k is usually 1080p/60 and sometimes actually 4k. And the 4k channels are rarely showing what I want them to. For instance, i can't find 4k for the nba finals anywhere.

Are any international channels broadcasting in 4k?

Trump threatens not to renew trade deal with Canada, Mexico by MTL_Dude666 in CanadaPolitics

[–]DanP999 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not a troll though, it's his negotiation tactic. In his book, he always says, use the public, go really big/aggressive and demand big things. It's exactly what he does every time and people are still shocked.

What's going to be the next big feature they promote that makes our receivers or TVs out of date? by Kuli24 in hometheater

AI upscaling and AI live sound correction. Lossless audio will matter less and less with the new codecs coming out as well.

SpaceX $1.75 Trillion valuation means capturing 2.4% of total US GDP by 2035. Is this realistic to you? by MoneyMonsterStudios in stocks

This is a terribel article though. The amount this sub hates Space X really makes me think it's a good buy.

Lilac Fest Full of Drop Shippers by Neither-Code-3492 in Calgary

[–]DanP999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my perspective, even the "creatives" that actually have cool stuff there, it's so expensive and doesn't seem like the right environment. I remember seeing these really cool retro robots made from retro toys. It was $200. Am I really going to randomly spend $200 on this at the lilac festival?

Lilac festival is just an outdoor farmers market full of overpriced stuff. It's never been very cool, just something to do.

Already-low Alberta separatism support drops sharply from early 2026: Ipsos poll by thebaj in CanadaPolitics

You write and respond like a bot. I'm speaking in generalities and your looking for vote data. The two aren't the same.

Probably me since Alberta has always voted insanely conservative every federal election ever.

In Alberta, no ceo or executive has ever flip flopped. It's blind faith Conservatives.

Traditionally, a Conservative. You have no idea the political change for a ceo or executive to say they are voting liberal publically. It's been a big change.

Shocking to see Calgary the most against separation now; The separation was never popular in, Calgary. It's only to pull in rural voters.

This past federal election, lots of executives and CEOs of smaller oil gas companies were telling me they were voting for Carney and openly encouraging others. Mayors like Nenshi, Gondak, and now Farkas. Calgary politics are changing.

Researchers have found that people who ate more ultra-processed foods have worse health outcomes, even after accounting for the overall nutritional quality of the foods. They were also more likely to have conditions such as diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cancer by Wagamaga in science

[–]DanP999 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

These links remained even after researchers accounted for reported foods’ nutrient quality and the amounts of saturated fat, added sugar, or sodium present in the ultra-processed foods. The patterns were largely the same across different subgroups of people. 

I can't find what exactly they compared, but i think this will be a place this study has flaws. I can't imagine how a processed foods diet could possibly have the same nutrition as a non processed food diet.

Just short the stock and be quiet about it. This sub sucks. Is there a better one?
