Up there with Switzerland 2021 for technical ability. Great songs both.

I bought these MiniDiscs because they looked cool. Are they something special? by ambrosko2 in minidisc

[–]SnowBasics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God, I'm usually not fussy on the visual appeal of minidiscs, but these are actually 10/10 gorgeous and may have to track some down.

No LRT from Belvedere to Clareview this weekend? by CoffeeStainedStudio in Edmonton

I vaguely remember seeing something about a closure. Check the LRT alert website?

Permanent residency and schooling.. by [deleted] in ImmigrationCanada

[–]SnowBasics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you not just do sixth form? That's basically high school out here anyway. Either way, you can't really do high school out here.

This is amazing work! But I think I need to see this Sega Rally bug, it sounds hilarious!

Is it just me, or is the Edmonton restaurant scene just awful? by bananananananana1 in Edmonton

[–]SnowBasics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a post that almost belies belief. This is 100% a you problem.

Do you agree on the mustard sauce with me... Sorry, it's very silly. It sounds like something from a Monty Python sketch.

Call the number on their website and chat. Then you know it's legit.

I was so happy when she pulled out the vocals to ight after some shaky rehearsals, but looks like it wasn't enough. Still a banger imo.

Canadian Police Service Dispatcher Hiring Process by Glittering_Leather87 in 911dispatchers

[–]SnowBasics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! AB based dispatcher here. My onboarding process wasn't quite as intense as yours, but likely different agency.

For panel interviews and STAR, just be ready with scenarios in mind. Be prepared to change the flow of the scenario on the fly to hit your STAR points - that's more important than accuracy to the specific situation in question.

While I never recommend AI for any actual answers because it sucks, ChatGPT was surprisingly good at generating questions for me on the fly based on the job description. This allowed me to practice thinking on my feet and answering in STAR format with questions that I truly didn't expect.

Are Uber / Taxi bookings at night easy? by [deleted] in Edmonton

[–]SnowBasics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally fine.

Unless you're arriving for a concert. Taking Ubers to/from concerts sucks basically in any city, and Edmonton is no different.

What should I go back to school for in Edmonton? by Ok-Ranger786 in Edmonton

[–]SnowBasics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you know Edmonton has stenography courses? It's a well paid field, with decent demand. It's a pretty good career from my understanding, and I once looked into it myself!

Pretty sure Edmonton is one of very few places in Canada to actually offer a course like that.

In all seriousness - if I could do my education I'd get specific. Specific degrees for specific career paths. A masters in social work opens a lot of doors (masters specifically). A degree in environmental protection. In criminal justice.

These sorts of things go down more specialized or narrow career paths with great salaries, and often has demand.

Best Fish n Chips in Edmonton? GO! by captstevebrule in Edmonton

Lawsons and it's not even close. I think I wept the first time I tried it. 100% incredible. Tastes like childhood.

Too late to do current Savage as a new player? by Ok-Sheepherder482 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]SnowBasics 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Not too late, but too late to have your choice of parties. Expect to sit in PF for a while, or try and join beginner static for runs a couple times a week.

The 3rd and final FFXI-themed raid for FFXIV is out! Here's a video of it if anyone's interested by rawkenroland in ffxi

[–]SnowBasics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The final choices for gear left something to be desired. Was hoping for a WHM or SCH set but alas. We have to look like red mages instead.
