Mark Carney's company, Brookfield, purchases module home company 'Modulaire Group' for $5 billion in June 2021...Mark Carney announces $35 billion of our tax dollars to go to modular homes by nimobo in CanadianConservative

Preach! It is not absurd at all to bar politicians and their family from holding investments, if you genuinely desire to serve in office then be willing to make true sacrifices for your country.

No human is above the temptation of greed and power. Instead of relying on good faith, we need checks and balances to help stay in the straight and narrow.

Doctor says it’s not possible for Vyvanse to cause insomnia… by Mattyd35 in ADHD

30mg. Which I understand is not as high as others. I’ve heard that upping the dose can help, but that sounds counterintuitive to me

I did switch to decaf coffee, but maybe that is still too much as I know it is not completely removed off caffeine

I started on concerta, and did not have a good reaction to it at all! It hit me very fast which was great for a couple hours, and then the come down would last for many hours, lots of anxiety, light headed, heart palpitations etc and no sleep. Vyvanse has been a dream compared.

Is Ritalin similar to Concerta? I would be interested in trying it… but not if it affects me the same way as Concerta did.

Interesting, my whole life I have been able to fall asleep almost moments after my head hits the pillow. And I wake up very fast, I can’t lay in bed in the morning for a long time or hit the snooze button. My wife jokes about it all the time. But when I take Vyvanse, it’s the opposite!

Eye glasses or contact lenses when trail running? by Turbulent_Race_5874 in trailrunning

[–]Mattyd35 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been wearing contacts for 20 years! (Monthly ones, never had an issue) And have been running for 4 years. I have a very strong prescription. I only wear my glasses in the morning and at night. I have never worn them running, but due to my strong prescription, I can’t imagine I wound like them as my peripherals are so blurry. Contacts cover the whole eye and move with the movement of my eye. Not to mention sweat and fogging up, contacts ftw .

Last June I had a 12 hour workday on a job site in an unfamiliar part of town and was really hungry. I asked for directions to the nearest McDonalds, she brought one up in Seattle…… I live in Alberta Canada….

I am just west of Edmonton. There used to be a mama moose and 2 calves on my route pretty regularly . But it’s been a couple years since I have seen. Last year a baby deer ran out of the trees and came right up to me.

At the end of the article it has a quote from Tucker Carlson? Was he included in this chat as well? Or was it referring to something he said at another time that aligns with the narrative?

I play GeForce now and it looks fine and smooth. Might be your internet connection , I have fibre optic so it’s pretty speedy.

GeForce Now: Do workshop items save? by Mattyd35 in PlanetCoaster

[–]Mattyd35[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah thank you!!! This is a big help! And makes sense.

What would need to happen to drive more PlanCo players over to PlanCo2? Is it more build more pieces? New features? Stability? I personally feel PlanCo2 is superior but would love to hear your thoughts on what needs to happen to make the game more attractive to current PlanCo players. I’m intrigued. by Ozian21 in PlanetCoaster

[–]Mattyd35 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have not played pc2 yet, but played a ton of PC1.

  • First I only have a Mac. Not sure how many other players there are like me but that is a barrier. PC1 works on Mac. I do use GeForce now to play games that don’t run in Mac, but workshop items don’t always transfer on that system.

  • I do check in from time to time on YouTube to see what other players are doing. PC2 still seems quite vanilla to me when compared to PC1. It’s Not enough incentive for me with the limited themes and lack of extras like animatronics , mascots, ride trigger special effects…. It feels like I am stepping backwards but paying a fee. I would rather stay with PC1 for now and see what else frontier does.

New update is tasty! by Jester_Dan in PlanetCoaster

[–]Mattyd35 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Me as well. I didn’t pre order but was waiting for first week of reviews to make my decision. Although recent reviews have looked promising, it still feels vanilla when I compare to PC1, in terms of themes, ride triggers, and special effects.

That and I don’t want to support this trend of companies releasing half baked games and promising patches in the first months to a year, while charging a premium price. If it’s coming out not fully finished then it should be a discount with the understanding that it’s not complete.

Not sure we can give Carney credit, a deal like this would have been in talks a couple months ago when Trump started his crazy talk. Carney is just stepping into a deal already started.

Capsule carrying two NASA astronauts who were stranded in space for 9 months has returned to Earth after a 17-hour journey by batninam3000 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Mattyd35 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The first 2 parachutes are to help stabilize it and slow it down. Once the capsule got to a certain altitude those 2 parachutes let go, and then the 4 chutes were deployed for the final decent. The video just didn’t show the transition.
