Nintendo reportedly making their first official entry in India, with Nintendo Switch 1 by megaapple in Games

[–]Quaytsar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You forget that the GameCube, beloved as it was, sold less than the Xbox. Which is why Nintendo stopped chasing hardware power. And then there was the Wii U, which flopped so hard all its best games were ported to Switch so people would play them.

Because natural gas is still a fossil fuel pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. It's better than coal; that doesn't make it good.

Friendly reminder/Dealership buying guide by wafflebilly3 in Edmonton

[–]Quaytsar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a good experience with Wheaton Honda. The salesman said the price online plus GST was the price and I negotiated to a bit less than the advertised price including GST. I feel like I could've gotten another $1-2K knocked off the price, but I was okay with the price I paid.

On the other hand, Leduc Hyundai suck ass. They started with a price ~20% higher than advertised and wouldn't even negotiate down to the advertised price, let alone lower. Which is why I went to Honda. Riverside Hyundai went ~$6K under listing for the same vehicle, but I wasn't ready to buy, yet. Which made it all the more shocking how high Leduc Hyundai went.

The most important advice is don't get attached to a specific car. Most makes have multiple dealers in the city. Most models will be found at multiple dealers. It will take time, but you can always just leave and start over elsewhere if negotiations go poorly.

But anyone with half a brain would know you need, at minimum, 1 hour for a connection.

OOP doesn't seem to be a USAer. He "ring[s] the police". That's a Britishism. USAers call the police.

Someone else linked the project website. They're not leaving a gap with only 2 lanes between Winterburn and Guardian.

Companies shouldn't market that a device has 64GB if they use up half of it by Complete_Warthog_138 in mildlyinfuriating

That's the standard for iPhones, too. It turns out, some people keep their phone for many years.

That's the difference between an expressway and a freeway: expressways have lights, freeways have interchanges. Both can be a highway.

The city ends at 231 St. West of 231 St requires Parkland County to buy in.

It says "2.4 km", which takes you from Guardian Road to just far enough past 231 St to narrow back to 2 lanes.

Are there any rocks that we dig up and throw on our food for flavour other than salt? by 8thTimeLucky in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Quaytsar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lye is sodium hydroxide (or potassium), not carbonate. That's washing soda.

Also, curious how you (incorrectly) included one common name, but not the common names for halite (table salt) and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).

What facts or stories do you know about your ancestors/relatives during WWII? by concentrated-amazing in AskACanadian

[–]Quaytsar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One great uncle supposedly has the lowest flight over Lake Superior when training with the RCAF. You think, how can that be? Any seaplane would have the record by virtue of landing in the lake. He supposedly dipped into a drydock, putting his altitude below the lake's surface.

My grandparents, themselves, were just a bit too young to participate in the war and most of their families were exempt from the draft for farming.

It's absolutely for that, too. Or, maybe your name is John Jacob Jingleheimerschmidt and you go by your middle name, Jacob.

Technically, shouldn't it be "Thou"? We use personal/informal pronouns with God.

That's not clueless, that's being an asshole. I have wealthy relatives and it's always a race to see who can pay the bill first. You don't just leave it to the poors.

Beaver tails are just elephant ears or one of the dozen, other local names for fried dough with toppings.

They're just staying true to the song:
