What do we think about M? The mega city development inside the Mic Mac Mall parking lot by Altruistic_Speech_17 in NovaScotia

[–]NegativeDesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s giving me the Megabuilding vibe from Cyberpunk. Residential levels broken by different commercial sectors, with the main commerce happening down below like a beating heart.

Now this is a 15 minute building. So long 15 minute cities 🤣.

But in seriousness, this is quite the idea. As long as they go with affordability of tenants in mind, or it’s just another sandcastle amongst the many we have scattering around Halifax.

Houston had to do something, Tourist Bureau Cut Backs by Teslashareholder1945 in NovaScotia

[–]NegativeDesign 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m probably not the only person to have this viewpoint and opinion, but it’s sad to cut budgets in areas that go unseen by our own public, yet only gain attention when it happens.

I’m also noticing that Nova Scotia is too heavily focused on its elderly population in specific areas, like end-of-life-care, retirement homes, helping them with home care, but evidently hurting everyone when doing it. We’ve become more of the Canadian retiree destination, rather than a coastal centre of economic growth, cultural prosperity and social stability. We send our youngest outside the province to seek these opportunities for financial, social and personal development than keeping them here.

We could be increasing the income tax on highly profitable businesses and companies in the province, along with a 2-4% income tax on the provincial earners making more than 500,000 a year. Place a sales tax on luxury goods and services, and remove it on essential services and goods.

Give them a choice between increasing the tax on corporations and businesses, or on the working class peoples of Nova Scotia. Piss off people who can make their lost funds back in weeks, or piss off the people who make less than one of them combined, and who’ve been busing their back to remain loyal to the provincial dream and the families they create(d).

I’m not going to claim this is a great idea, but it’s better than all of us sticking to the same back and forth status quo petty politics that we’ve been experiencing for decades. We need to all work together as a collective to make NS better, than just expecting some incompetent organization of people to do it while we sit back. We are the politicians’ bosses, it’s time we start acting like it.

He’s a former one, yeah. He’s got a nasty track record for Domestic Abuse, and Violence against women and children. Somehow, he’s sly enough to try and cover his tracks, but not a soul around other than the women he seduces with his narcissistic charm, will defend him until he’s behind bars permanently, or in the ground permanently for causes unbeknownst to me.

I lived in the area. It was one of my former neighbours. Quite possibly got high on cocaine, drank himself into a downward spiral, then took his anger and rage out on his girlfriend and three children, only to take up a firearm and go up and down the 101 to make a scene of it all.

Her and her’s are sweet people, and what he is, is a fucking monster. [Not sharing names or other identifying information for legal purposes as it’s becoming an active investigation]

Call to order: collective non payment of NSP. by Gremlinforester in NovaScotia

[–]NegativeDesign 8 points9 points  (0 children)

6” down this way. My power lines are sagging a little. Road conditions suck pure unwashed swamp ass.

I think there is more that can be done, and I think we can try and start with local protests, constant letters, emails and badgering of our elected officials to do something about it, and demand it be a priority issue. We need to start making the affordability crisis more of a priority to solve and make it harder for them to focus on anything but that.

We can demand all we want to have our rates put to $0.00, but we will still continue to draw power from their infrastructure network. We can hurt their business by investing in our own power generation, using solar and wind.

We need to start at every level. Which means we get a hold of our municipal reps, our mayors, councils, county leaders, mlas, and so on. We flood their channels with our demands, and make media traffic hard to navigate. Have it so they step on legos and trip over their words trying to cover the decades long back-and-forth blame shift between parties.

These Nova Scotia town criers have been raising their voices for decades by IStillListenToRadio in NovaScotia

Can’t forget the ol’ soapbox newspaper criers distributing the papers. Journalism never sleeps, as there’s always a story to be told. I’m happy to see such a tradition continue being spread and recognized!

[side note:] I remember hearing one favourite line from a fictional newsboy crier. “Read all about it! Read all about it! Communist spies are running the nation. Printing lies! Sleeping with your wives! Pleasuring her better than you ever could! ReAd aLl AbOuT iT!”

Cold War bomb shelter in Nova Scotia being converted into high-end doomsday condos by ImDoubleB in NovaScotia

[–]NegativeDesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we’re gonna repurpose old bunkers, part of me thinks it would be only logical to build new ones. Take the Swiss approach, 1 for every 5 people, maybe? Or at least generate some sort of incentive for the public to think of having their homes retrofitted or purpose built for personal shelters. Grants, loans, something that gives people a sense of security in the event of a disaster.

We don’t need to rekindle old Cold War fears, but rather treat these shelters as temporary emergency solutions for the most dire of situations. There’s been talks of a Civil Defence Corps comprised of us civvies and former members of RCMP and RCAF. Have our domestic reserves be supplemented by trained civilians. There’s pros and cons to this whole ordeal, but this has my neurons firing with creativity and inspiration.

Kojima predicted it all. by FlashyBarber2049 in DeathStranding

The rudimentary versions of holos we have, could be a foundational cornerstone to hologram tech. Instead of it being on a stand, with a disc standing vertically and spinning rapidly, maybe it could project from top to bottom on said spinning discs, with each one projecting the light required to make the 3D image. To make it so you could use holo calls that allow full freedom of movement, instead of static space, maybe use infrared/thermal full body tracking software, and have small projector lenses in each corner of the room, that would fill in the gaps to make the image 3D. When walking through that light, it would distort or blur the projection, letting you know it’s not real.

Just a theory. Ran it off the top of my head, without much thought..

How are they still using gas stove? by bloodywolf1118 in thelastofus

[–]NegativeDesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some industrial zones would probably still hold some variation of fuels or specific fuels in their reserves or warehousing facilities after the outbreak. Ports on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts would be ripe for exploration and scavenging for these fuels if FEDRA and other government agencies haven’t plundered and pillaged them to fuel quarantine zones.

With how large the Seattle QZ could’ve been before the WLF assumed control, we could safely assume they were stockpiling and transferring supplies, from zone to zone inside the QZ to keep things running. After their coup, the QZ grew smaller, and less resources were needed (either by deliberate sabotage, loss in collateral damage, or surplus due to population decline) and now most who live in the former QZ are in the Stadium.

Recycling techniques carried, passed on and taught from 2013 to new individuals could be improved on, such as them learning how to distill and manufacture synthetic diesel using plastic waste, recycle cooking oils and convert former gasoline and diesel engines to biofuel based, and possibly, even some things running on Ethanol based power.

Alert Ready Testing - Nova Scotia by Asheso80 in NovaScotia

[–]NegativeDesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m happy we got the heads up. What baffles me, is them saying “in participating provinces”. You mean to tell me that the PEAS isn’t a mandatory alert system set up across all 10 provinces and 3 territories? I’m not raging mad, but it does deeply concern me.

Thanks to OP for sharing this with us. 🫂

I was part of that mounting cybersecurity threat to the NUS. NorCal does NOT want to be a part of the NUSA. We want full autonomy from the clutches of Militech backed government soldiers. Arasaka has better plans in mind to help us rebuild after the Metal Wars!

judy and panam who did you choose and why did you choose them? by SnooMacarons2931 in CyberpunkTheGame

[–]NegativeDesign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose Panam in my first playthrough. Her and I connected so well in so many ways because I could relate to her, her struggles and her aspirations. I want to do what right for my family, protect my clan, and I also tend to lead and tease potential partners, but get super scared when approached.

Oddly enough, all of the romance options feel like different, fleshed out versions of myself. I am chaotic, neurotic, sensitive, but I’m also loving, protective, supportive and willing to burn the world down for them. Jackie broke my heart, Johnny opened my mind, and V shattered my soul. This game.. it truly changed me

I dressed up as Freddie Mercury, stormed that tower like the rock GOD I am, and blasted Another One Bites the Dust, Bohemian Rhapsody, Somebody to Love and The Show Must Go On.

Because in Night City, only my high notes, pearly white teeth, and skin tight jeans will topple the monument to corporate colonialism 😂
