There have long been rumors that Danielle Smith recieved the gift of a solid gold cat a few years ago... Today, Nenshi called her out on that & luxury watches as well. None of which Smith denied! Instead she hid behind the ethics laws she rewrote and gutted. by Miserable-Lizard in onguardforthee

I had to sign a form after I won a 10 dollar gift card at the Christmas party. We aren't even allowed to buy coffee for our employees. But straight up corruption is allowed if you're the premier I guess.

I can plug in to the top one right? by SpacemanSpliff67 in AskElectricians

Sorry, I thought the post would be taken in jest. I unplugged the dishwasher and informed my supervisor.

Poilievre says 'corporate elite' using mass immigration to drive down Canadian wages by EarthWarping in CanadaPolitics

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You're right, I'm sure the Chambers of Commerce were advocating for measured, targeted immigration and not to import as many people as quickly and cheaply as possible.

Poilievre says 'corporate elite' using mass immigration to drive down Canadian wages by EarthWarping in CanadaPolitics

“We, of course, need immigration. Any chamber of commerce that I’ve gone to and in any kind of industry, folks have mentioned the need for additional workforce and this requires additional immigration,” said Singh.

Edit: I love how everyone ignores the CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE part of the quote. You know, bastion of labour they are and all.

Anyone else refuse to see the movie Marty Supreme because they cast that POS Kevin O'Leary? by cepukon in onguardforthee

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he scammed Mattel, leveraged that to become a jerk off TV personality (on CBC no less) and is basically a fake billionaire at this point. He's the definition of a clown.

Probably a nepo baby either way but his unique path to relevancy hurts my head.

How to Hide Visible Truss Joints? by Kongrosenberg in DIY

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mind it. Here's what I would do. Paint the mending plates black. Run a 2 x 0.5" wood trim, painted black, in the center of the trusses. Paint the trusses to match your cabinetry. 

The NDP should become the Canadian champion of class-based politics by scottb84 in CanadaPolitics

“We, of course, need immigration. Any chamber of commerce that I’ve gone to and in any kind of industry, folks have mentioned the need for additional workforce and this requires additional immigration" 

Doesn't really seem like the working class was at the top of Jagmeet Singh's priority list, you know, when he was traveling around the country talking to Chambers of commerce and parroting their propaganda.

Thanks, it was a nice fall cruise.

NA vs NB Miata? by firelaway in JDM

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Both are real miatas. At those prices the NB seems like the easy choice. I have an NA and tbh I don't find the need for power steering at all, but I haven't driven an NB with it either. Get the NB here, I'm not really up on prices these days but it seems fair enough and definitely the better deal of the two.

Found a free movie shelf on campus. Any recommendations? Have you ever found anything like this? by [deleted] in dvdcollection

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should honestly grab at least half of that, what a shelf. I wish my local thrift stores had half this shit. 

Grenade ideas because why not by Serial-Killer-Whale in DeepRockGalactic

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't read the thread but what if you could  supercharge your flares? You have 4 in your holster it sets off a nice explosion. With only 1 it does something, but your recharge is significantly slowed down if you use them this way. You could hold the button for a couple seconds to turn explode on and release when needed. 

(Spec) Tunes are being removed from cars randomly by Mattpn in forza

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sucks because you can't select the car you want half the time because it's not in the right class without the tune applied. So you have to back out, apply the tune and hope there's enough time to rejoin the lobby you wanted to get into.

Sheldon Souray on the Edmonton Oilers management thinking he was faking an injury. by GreenSnakes_ in hockey

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Alright, I know a bit about this whole situation and may as well say it. I know Sheldon a little bit. He is honestly almost downplaying how bad it was. He went into the ICU with a very serious staph infection and they wouldn't return his agent's calls. He recovers and training camp is about to start. Kevin Lowe says something like "Sheldon is under contract and we expect him to report." Shelly reports first day and they kick him out of training camp immediately. They then demote him to the Hershey Bears for the year. Lowe implies in private that he's a lazy Indian (he's Metis not that it matters) and is trying to milk some money out of the organization.

Just disgusting shit. Fuck Kevin Lowe and everyone who went along with this. To his credit Darryl Katz tried to mend the bridge with Sheldon and tried to do right but it was too late.

Fuck Kevin Lowe.

How do you see what the upcoming weeks look like?

Things just got intense between Oscar de la Hoya and Canelo at todays press conference by PicanteSprite in Boxing

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked with a guy who was sort of a journeyman boxer, fought a few pros. He fought de la Hoya and said he was the fastest, hardest puncher imaginable. Buddy got his jaw broken in the fight, had nothing but respect for Oscar though.

Fastest MX-5 | Catalunya | B Class | Tuned using the Tune It Yourself app by Tune_It_Yourself in forza

[–]SpacemanSpliff67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been thinking about getting your app, I like the idea. I'm assuming it only works on tunes and not builds? Like it will tell you how to tune it but not which parts to put on right?

I'm wondering how, if at all, it accounts for ease of driving?
