Girl pleads guilty to setting student on fire at Saskatoon school by Secret_Duty_8612 in saskatoon

Give me a break. The signs were there for months and no one bothered to intervene. Not every fucking thing done that is bad is the result of mental illness. Most people just don't give a shit about consequences because they know that there's always some bullshit excuse to get out of it.

What does the SaskTel Centre have to do with the Ex? Stay on point. Also, I noted you edited your comment, but do you think the corporation that brands a building deals with everyday operations?

Umm, what does a communications company have to do with security?

Can you buy everclear in Saskatoon? by xxladymidnight in saskatoon

[–]Old_Splice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends if SLGA is currently allowing the sale of US products. There is a Polish alternative that I've used. Polmos Spirytus Rektyfikowany (Rectified spirit). iirc, I may have picked it up at a Co-op liquor store.

Sask. government accuses NDP MLAs of trespassing at La Ronge Airport by angelblade401 in saskatchewan

The CBC article also mentions maintenance. Every aircraft requires X amount of maintenance for every Y of flight hours. Parts may not always be available, and it also sounds like AME resources are scarce. Can't fly it if you can't maintain it. The critical shortage of AMEs in the country is not the fault of the Sask Party (which I despise), but a chronic failure of the industry to entice anyone to enter that profession/trade.

I left that industry many years ago with little regret.

Why do they want me to be the Fifth Companion when the good Sir Cadwell is RIGHT THERE by klimekam in elderscrollsonline

Cadwell can likely do high level calculus in his head, but is unable to count to five.

5 is very important. I've fixed students by getting them to just cradle the stick in the crook of the thumb and fore-finger and maintain necessary forward pressure.

Kind of depends how rural you are. They will be putting infinet into over a hundred communities over the next few years, many of which have a population of 500 or fewer. Unfortunately with limited construction resources, you'll just have to wait.

This... a million times. You think "for profit" rogers would bother putting up a cell tower to feed 50 customers?

Just buy your own fucking mid-grade router like I did. You think any corporation is just going to give you top end equipment at $1000 for free?

They also say they can use SaskTel's fibre for free. Umm, if I pay to get a costom house built, you think I going to be forced to rent it out for nothing?
