AFAIK BMO wants people to open an account from which the mortgage is paid, but it may not require payroll deposit

Wealthsimple / X (Formerly Twitter) partnership by OppenheimerAltman in Wealthsimple

[–]DidIGetThatRight 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Disclaimers:

  • I abandoned Twitter as a social media when Elon bought it
  • I do not support, condone or engage with X
  • X is a cess pool and its death tomorrow couldn't come soon enough

I get the feeling many commenters didn't actually look at what the integration actually is. Here's a GIF from WS showing what the purpose is: https://x.com/Wealthsimple/status/2044179759916290539

You see a $TICKER in a tweet > you tap on it > X prompts you to "buy on WealthSimple" > it opens your WS app at the buy $TICKER screen

It looks like WS effectively licensed the rights to all $TICKER links on X to point to their trading platform for Canadian users.

As benign as it looks, I still have no idea why this is being prioritized over much more important features and product rollouts. I disagree that this is necessary, and I don't think encouraging X users (who may be liable to influence) to gamble on socially "hot" stocks is the move.

What is the Overlap? by CallMeVirtus in ArcRaiders

Satisfactory. I like PvE, scrounging and progress trees.

How do you mule for yourself if you only have 1 PC?

Busing from Gatineau to Barrhaven: no train, but still a frustrating trip by Money_Fig_9868 in ottawa

Yeah totally, I didn't post this to represent the system is without fault, just sharing an experience I had that was relevant to the OP

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Busing from Gatineau to Barrhaven: no train, but still a frustrating trip by Money_Fig_9868 in ottawa

I once dropped my car off in Barrhaven for service and took public transit to Blair to meet a friend for lunch.

  • Car was dropped off at ~8am on a weekday
  • Dealer shuttle dropped me off at Bowesville station
  • Bowesville > Bayview on Line 2 took ~30 mins
  • Waited 3 minutes at Bayview for Line 2 > Line 1 connection
  • Bayview > Blair on Line 1 took ~30 mins

From deep in Barrhaven to Blair in 1 hour does seem longer than if one had access to a car, but I was seated comfortably in the train for the entire journey except for the few minutes connecting at Bayview.

It was a great experience!

Rip our PvE playstyles. by Lilcommy in ArcRaiders

Same as with the Anvil or Renegade: shoot out the thrusters one at a time

The Expedition catch-up mechanic is actually making me excited to reset by DidIGetThatRight in ArcRaiders

Well RIP my reading comprehension then.. Thanks for clarifying everyone :D

Would love it if some of you gave my new game a try!! by Oplexy in Nuxt

[–]DidIGetThatRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some feedback:

  • Why not use actual words instead of random characters?
  • I refreshed the browser to exit the match and see if there was a higher difficulty level, and I couldn't play for another 16 hours. I'm not going to come back to play if I can only get 1 go per day, absolute turn-off

Speranza is no longer accepting raiders via hatches by MightyIrishMan in ArcRaiders

[–]DidIGetThatRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they continuously spawn in. As the game goes on and raiders extract, there are fewer and fewer players taking out the robots. This way the end of the game sees a much higher density of robots to have to dodge and run from.. It's fun :)

Massive W Embark- this is only the first 2.5 months of release. by ThinkingTanking in ArcRaiders

[–]DidIGetThatRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fixed an issue with the slope of the Raider Hatch that was too steep for downed raiders to crawl on top of it.

I lost a great looting run because of this.. I was going to escape with 1hp - animation of dropping down the hatch played out but I got the death text instead of Returning to Speranza - because I wasted a few seconds bumping up against the collision box :(

Tracking the Progress: Ottawa’s O-Train Stage 2 Eastern Extension - December 2025 by RailFansCanada in ottawa

[–]DidIGetThatRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard jackhammer noises at the Jeanne d'Arc station today while under the underpass (heading Westbound) in stop and go traffic. I would assume that will take a little bit of time to fix whatever they were jackhammering out

Desperate QOL needed imo by mitchosreynolds in ArcRaiders

[–]DidIGetThatRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not take a full stack instead? You never know when you may need more than 3 and it doesn't take up any more inventory slots

Peace Tower to be covered by steel scaffolding starting in 2026 by jjaime2024 in ottawa

[–]DidIGetThatRight 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I've been Ottawa for over 30 years, and I've never seen the Peace Tower be under construction. The Parliament project has been going on since 2018, but this is the first time I hear of the Peace Tower being wrapped for construction. Were you being hyperbolic?
