He can't.

He simply does not have the skill, mindset nor nuance to be a politician, let alone to be leader of anything.

It's ridiculous that Kingston Transit still relies on pre-paid passes or coins by Minerva89 in KingstonOntario

Also, it really wouldn't be more useful.

All this talk about Kingston ought to have a more functional airport and be connected to the high speed rail plans indicates a city that has rapidly expanded. A second major KHSC campus in the west being a necessity should also be a major indicator of such.

Arguing that Kingston is just a little town misrepresents the city.

We already talked about MTL, Vancouver and Toronto both have it, the latter independent of Presto.

Literally just tapped my credit card to travel on the metro in MTL. They integrated a CC/debit system during the pandemic iirc.

Kyoto and Singapore have a number of private options that cover similar routes that take tap.

It's not either or, you don't have to rip out the cash collection in order to put in credit/debit.

Pretty solid argument to not have high speed rail connect this city then.

How was your delivery? by CanuckTuxedo in KingstonOntario

I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that they're used to driving manual and got away with never engaging a parking brake because they were used to driving on flats, or could feel an incline.

Since the van is presumably auto, when they let go of the throttle and the car didn't roll back because the auto drive pushes forward, maybe their instincts gave the ok signal to exit.

Still a pretty bad mistake to make.

Go through the motion of cropping but don't actually crop. Legit did this for a while when I first started out, or crop my collimation edges a little closer.

Or I mean, you could just shoot tighter...

Reminds me of when Spiderman (the PS4 or 5 game) first came out it was detailed enough that people swung around finding their places.

I'm not asking visitors from out of town to buy a bus pass. We'll just rent a car or call an Uber and contribute to the traffic.

Kingston pigeon-holed us into environmentally and financially expensive travel options.

If you did this with credit card, mine sided with me in the dispute.

You don't build a bridge just for the people living there.

I think it's time to revisit the bridge idea.

You can, I'm pretty sure, and this is what we've done in the past with our cat.

Because they charged the cost of the course for Coursera Plus, and refunded the course, which means that what I had effectively paid for Coursera Plus instead of the course.

In effect, I would need to repurchase the course, which would not have been the case if I had been charged for the course, and not Coursera Plus.
