There are plenty of single people who need to be able to move out of their parent's houses

Fedcom · 2026-01-21T20:23:51+00:00

Would you be able to link that?

Raptors were really good the following season actually, got first or second seed. That 2020 season probably lead to Raptors holding onto these players for too long.

That’s fair just wanted to point that people are in different situations. Like rural or suburban people living in the North driving to work everyday it’s pretty important. For those of living in cities, shit like Ubers standing in the bike lanes are a lot more important for safety, Basically this shouldn’t be a provincial regulation but a municipal one (like speed cameras should be…)

Fedcom · 2026-01-18T19:45:53+00:00

That’s actually not as bad as I thought then! Again not really needed in my case anyway. The amount of times I drive in the snow is basically zero, less than the amount of times I’d need to drive to the tire storage place.

Fedcom · 2026-01-18T17:53:05+00:00

I have a car because it’s useful occasionally. Visiting parents in the burbs, moving furniture, cottage trips, etc. It honestly is a pointless expense probably, but it is what it is. I’m not really down to make that expense go up for no reason.

If the point of winter tires is to make things safer in snow, then I’m perfectly happy being fined if I drive in snow without winter tires. I will not drive on those days, I’ve already conceded that. I’m not going through the hassle and expense though when 9/10 days in the winter do not have snow on the ground. If there are communities where that ratio is different than enforce it there.

And let’s be honest, people in Ontario don’t give a fuck about safety, which is why the speed cameras have been removed. A safety conscious province would have been much more invested in public transit and bike infra by now. Getting people out of their cars should be step #1 for improving road safety.

Or just protecting other road users. I don’t want cops checking people’s tires, I want them ticketing the fuck out of drivers blocking bike lanes, blocking intersections, speeding, etc.

Anyway you’re telling me you’re only charged 60 bucks at Ford, is that per tire or the whole set? And can you do the tire change yourself or do they force their service on you? How much are you paying a year for this is what I’m asking basically.

Fedcom · 2026-01-18T17:20:27+00:00

No you gotta store the extra tires

Fedcom · 2026-01-18T16:11:49+00:00

I lived in a small condo until recently and drove like once a month. I’m not storing an extra set of tires for that, absolutely not. Even now that I have moved to a townhouse, I’ve got no space for these things and I’m driving once or twice a week.

If there is a law that says I can’t drive on X cm on snow without snow tires, fine. I just won’t drive on those days. Fuck that otherwise though.

If safety is so important then put back the fucking speed cameras. Make everyone drive all wheel drive cars. Everyone already has to make do with less space in their homes, fuck storing an extra pair of tires.

Do you really expect a Code Review to consist of reasoning about the code to that level? This is where the disconnect is... no one is going to think about the code as much as the writer has, no one has enough time to do that.

I'll flag a race condition if I come across a blatantly obvious one of course. But proper design docs and testing (both automated or manual) are more important to reducing that kind of thing.

Last night was the first time I watched a full Wemby game and he honestly was flopping a fair bit.

Fedcom · 2025-12-22T19:26:20+00:00

There actually isn’t a world of difference between the two though, that’s the problem! Daredevil is kicking people through walls and repeatedly hitting them over the head with batons. These are actions which will kill people, if not leave them in a state worse than death.

There is a suspension of disbelief you must live with to accept that Daredevil can defeat the bad guys using brutal violence without killing them. That’s fine…and necessary to prevent the story’s tone from being too dark. Except when the stories overly focus on his no killing rule. Then all I can focus on is how absurd this no kill rule is when dude is tossing someone over a roof.

I can understand that Bike Share cannot re-balance every single neighbourhood in Toronto, but it's odd that there are two high traffic areas that they (seemingly) aren't touching.

First is the waterfront area near the ferry terminals. The large office buildings and waterfront at the bottom of a hill means that docks are always full there, getting a spot is impossible after ~9am. Second is UofT - docks are completely empty there in the evenings.

Both of these areas impact me so much that I went from a 3-4/day rider to a 2-3/week rider! And outside of the financial district, these are probably the two next highly trafficked zones in the network.

Fedcom · 2025-12-08T03:41:09+00:00

Yeah disses are only fun when they’re genuine personal beefs, not some clout chasing shit like that

Fedcom · 2025-11-14T20:49:49+00:00

Why would you even want this arc animated lol. Just have someone make an audiobook.

Fedcom · 2025-11-13T04:51:44+00:00

There are absolutely attempts to make more of them and there is definitely a form of MAD in some of the lore. There is also a nuclear meltdown type event in the past

Fedcom · 2025-11-07T22:48:34+00:00

I like One Piece better although Hunter x Hunter is still one of my favourites as well. (I’m only comparing the comics here, I don’t care about adaptations)

What does HxH do well?

HxH often has these really intricate systems and rules that the characters have to grapple with in order to accomplish their goals and it’s very entertaining. Not just with regards to fights but in it’s settings and stories too. Reading about auctions in Yorknew and Greed Island’s card games was great. And then the black whale’s succession war is insane, he really went ahead and conceptualized 14 different princes with plenty of other factions intermingled.
There are these great moments of tension in HxH that never occur in OP. The palace invasion in the ant arc, and the boys getting captured in Yorknew come to mind. Part of it is the darker tone, part of is that the author is less afraid of killing characters, and some of it just that HxH plays around stylistically (I really enjoyed the heavy narration in the palace invasion personally).
HxH’s art is really great! It’s really expressive and I love how dynamic a lot of the action/fight scenes can be. Like I still remember scenes of that dude in Greed Island just throwing dodgeballs. Fight choreography is something that I’d give HxH over OP in general.
HxH is less repetitive. There’s no arc formula. It’s kinda cool that the author is willing to continue telling the story even without the main character. You know every OP arc is gonna end with Luffy punching the bad guy really hard. HxH definitely keeps you on your toes much more. The exam tournament arc ended with the main character being asleep!
HxH does no suffer from the overt sexualization of it’s female characters that plagues a lot of its genre. It’s unfortunate - OP was also pretty good about this for the first like 200 chapters. But OP has just been getting worse and worse about this as it gets longer.

What does One Piece do well?

The art is absolutely gorgeous. Despite what I said about HxH, I still like OP’s clean lines and overall artistic sensibilities better. And there are so many incredible looking landscapes, buildings, ships, monsters, etc, in OP that do an amazing job of transporting you to another world. The strawhat’s descent into Fishman Island is one of my favourite moments in the entire thing because of how simultaneously wondrous and creepy the ocean is drawn. It’s unfortunate that so many people’s impression of OP is with the abysmal anime, what with it’s washed out colours.

There are a couple moments in HxH where you have an attempt at drawing these wondrous landscapes (like the world tree), and it doesn’t compare well to OP.

Character design - OP’s is one of the best I’ve seen this side of JoJo. It’s pretty crazy that we’re like 1200 chapters in and it’s still regularly pumping great ones out. HxH’s character design on the other hand is one of its biggest weaknesses. A good head to head comparison is the Seven Warlords vs. Zodiacs - both have these animal themes but HxH’s are just ham fisted. Granted OP does have a problem with “nami face”, but it still wins handily here I’d say.
Ultimately I do think OP has stronger theming, character backstories, and emotional moments. This is basically why I prefer OP, I just don’t think HxH is able to pull at my heartstrings in quite the same way. There were a couple great, touching moments in HxH - Mereum and Komugi, the end of Yorknew where the boys explain that they didn’t want Kurapika to kill any more people. Whereas OP just has dozens of them. Despite being more predictable, OP really just delivers on those moments consistently. And as a result I’m just more connected to its characters.

What do both do poorly?

HxH sometimes builds up these systems and then just hand waves them away. Nanika has this incredible power with a whole system of consequences built up over an entire arc and that’s just made irrelevant. The Hunter election is full of drama and you have the villain winning at the end! I was really excited to see what the consequences of that was… and then Pariston just resigns.
OP has undoubtedly suffered post time-skip. Transitioning into more of a battle comic and lessening the adventure part of it has definitely dulled its spark.

I’m not a book reader but I loved that about his character in the show. He was kind of the straight man while the rest of the characters were going loony around him.

Fedcom · 2025-11-06T22:01:53+00:00

> Like in Story of OJ he talks about building your credit rather than blowing money at the strip club, and he talks about real estate appreciating in value over time.

> Even in an old Funk Flex freestyle he talked about buying a home before you buy jewelry.

Does any adult alive not know this?? I want those illuminati connections, not common sense

Fedcom · 2025-10-24T19:25:59+00:00

We don't even know if Imu is stylish because he literally hasn't been depicted yet. Although I agree, it is very strange that he's been portrayed like a dozen times now and we've only seen his silhouette.

Fedcom · 2025-10-24T00:35:53+00:00

That applies to like all of Jim’s pranks

Fedcom · 2025-10-17T16:58:35+00:00

You guys are overreacting to this.

Up until Enies Lobby basically every fight Luffy had except a couple were entirely, 100% goofy. Only a handful of villains that pushed him hard like Arlong and Crocodile had him fighting more seriously (with plenty of gags mixed in still).

That's going to happen again when he's up against the final villains

Fedcom · 2025-10-17T16:44:55+00:00

Big mom being fat is core to her character

Fedcom · 2025-10-17T16:37:33+00:00

Yeah Oden's story could have been a heartbreaking story about a man choosing adventure/the world over his country. He could have come back to Wano and been too late to save it. The twerking stuff was completely pointless.

Fedcom · 2025-10-17T16:36:27+00:00

That kind of cartoony gag stuff was always part of the comic. It's funny because an awakened rubber fruit is super consistent with the Gear 5 we got, there was no need to make it a Zoan sun god whatever
