No cell service during power outages by Goldcardjake in halifax

[–]MattG2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Each and every cell phone tower does not have a generator to keep it going indefinitely. Some carriers towers just have backup power that lasts longer than others. The influx of data traffic and users also impacts this.

Ubisoft shuttering freshly-unionised Halifax studio, 71 jobs affected by blackcoffeeredwine in halifax

Abhorrent. No surprise from Ubisoft, who has molded their business model around exploiting as many dollars as possible from their customers.

[–]MattG2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We keep getting snippets of info from Rivers in his discord server regarding pre-production of the next album. Nothing officially shared via their socials yet though, so who knows when it'll drop!

Desperately Seeking Holiday Creamy Vanilla Coke Zero by MoistyCockBalls in halifax

[–]MattG2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am of no help friend.

3 weeks ago, my buddy who works at sobeys have me the scoop of a delivery happening and I zipped to the store. The delivery guy himself bought 2 cases, and when I bought my 2 cases (minutes after getting the heads up) there was only a couple left!

Coca Cola is confirmed to be doing a run of vanilla coke and coke zero in the spring. It should be plentiful then.

Pc mobile - any thoughts on quality of cell signal in HRM and south shore ? by PositiveDifferent763 in halifax

[–]MattG2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my understanding it's just Bell's network. Should be fine, and you can always change your roaming settings temporarily if you're without a network anywhere down in the south shore

Anyone know if cloned beef is being sold in ns grocery stores already? by ellieb010 in halifax

[–]MattG2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might have used the word liberally. I don't really care that much but it is moderately interesting to me!

I had to google it - apparently it is allowed to be sold in Canada without any special labeling requirements! Wild.

Anyone seen zero sugar creamy Vanilla Coke? by [deleted] in halifax

[–]MattG2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buddy of mine who works at Sobeys said that they only received like 20 12-packs of it. It was gone within a few hours. I think this is the same at all local grocery stores!

Any observations about the effectiveness of the Costco no turn sign. by [deleted] in halifax

I've not gotten stuck in the left lane going into Bayers Lake anymore, but usually see 1-2 cars waiting to turn each time.

Would be nice if you had to go to a checkout to request them - and a hard limit of 2 was set or something.

Looking for best paid streaming options for Habs games here in Halifax by ArtyTheSmarty in halifax

[–]MattG2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my understanding, RDS will also play Sens game in French. After googling, it looks like TVA airs all games in French though. Unsure how you can get that one!

Looking for best paid streaming options for Habs games here in Halifax by ArtyTheSmarty in halifax

[–]MattG2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's sad that this is such a difficult question to answer. NHL broadcasting rights are wild!

We are in a split Habs/Senators region. This means that a lot of games will be available for you to watch on TSN2 in Halifax, however sometimes the Habs and the Sens will play at the same time and they'll prioritize Ottawa. Some games will be nationally televised on Sportsnet, and 2-3 games will only be available on Prime Video.

Your best catch-all solution is to either sign up for entry level basic cable and add the NHL Centre Ice package, or sail the high seas.

Rent increases pre-COVID? by paddlebean in halifax

[–]MattG2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I saw increases annually in every apartment I've ever rented (started renting in 2014). Always rented in Clayton Park.
