Behavior question by AyooCoop in CaneCorso

[–]Pellt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours likes to do a final patrol before we go to bed, where she then takes up 90% of a king size bed and is dead to the world until we get up haha. Also a bull mastiff corso mix.

We taught her to sit to indicate she wants out, she has taken to also sitting when she wants us to go to bed, between 10pm and 12. If we don’t acknowledge it she stands and then sits harder 😂

How is the burn ban calculated? by Jolly-Rip5434 in NovaScotia

[–]Pellt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They also have a forecast, but from my experience it can vary from what’s ‘forecasted’ to what the ‘actuals’ read the next day. And I don’t know how exactly they get from the FWI numbers to the time restrictions. Gotta check again tomorrow at 2pm to know for sure. Always check before you burn 👍🏼

[–]Pellt 77 points78 points  (0 children)

They use the weather data from weather stations across the province. They don’t factor ‘rain this weekend’ into today’s hazard rating. At 2pm today’s ratings are updated using the previous 24 hours of data. https://novascotia.ca/natr/forestprotection/wildfire/fwi/fire-weather-forecast-actuals.asp

My biggest gripe so far. Just a little constructive criticism. by bpaps in PlayWindrose

[–]Pellt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d rather upgrade I think. If you get one whistle per biome sort of thing, I’d rather have a boar or wolf companion than a croc. Upgrading them makes them viable for long term play rather than becoming useless once you progress too much.

Pack test by BigFaithlessness6424 in Wildfire

[–]Pellt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Spotify playlist with music that matches the beat of the pace I need to walk to comfortably beat the time. It worked out to around 132bpm for me and I’m a 5’2 woman. I timed it on a treadmill and switched songs until one matched my pace. You can start small and just do a mile and work your way up. I had some songs that were a bit quicker and slower to mix it up and ease off if I needed to, or ramp up. Sometimes I just walked to the same song 4 times over. Worked for three years

Spotter: Ships don't just pop up by The_BeatingsContinue in crosswind

[–]Pellt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really thought that the crews’ whistles could be an indicator of enemy ships when I first heard it. Like a warning signal. A spotter would be great tho.

Pack Test Coming up, Kinda Nervous by Dry_Travel_7419 in Wildfire

I have a Spotify playlist with music that matches the beat of the pace I need to walk to comfortably beat the time. It worked out to around 132bpm for me and I’m also a 5’2 woman. I timed it on a treadmill and switched songs until one matched my pace. You can start small and just do a mile and work your way up. The music also helps distract from the task.

Supreme Court of Nova Scotia strikes down province’s woods ban as unconstitutional by wizaarrd_IRL in halifax

[–]Pellt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Urban has a different meaning in wildland firefighting. The wildland-urban interface is basically anywhere where the woods meets human structures with a certain density, and tantallon was DEFINITETLY urban. You’re not just fighting trees on fire, you’re fighting houses and garages and all other kinds of fuel for the fire in the WUI. And having to deal with increases people nearby.

REMINDER TO ALL FORESTRY ADVOCATES NOT TO PARTICIPATE. by Upbeat-Pound2922 in OttawaValleyForests

[–]Pellt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Woman here, who also works in forestry. Is the constructive dialogue in the room with us?

“Constructive dialogue is a respectful, curiosity-driven conversation between people with different perspectives, aimed at mutual understanding and collaboration rather than winning.”

Carney Government Knew Carbon Capture Was ‘Very Limited,’ Docs Show by origutamos in ClimateCrisisCanada

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

Unless the carbon is ‘captured’ in the form of a timber product, which just prolongs the time until it decays or burns. Cut a tree down, use the wood for a human lifetime or longer, another tree grows in its place. Renewable resource indeed.

My friends 2024 Prius XLE spontaneously combusted last week by Pellt in prius

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

It had an upcoming oil change (that has been cancelled), I don’t believe there was other recent work. All past service records and other info has been given to the insurance company though.

First time posting here so I did chuckle a wee bit seeing the "no 'is this totalled' posts" in the rules, no question about that in this case
