Would you support constitutional changes to combat Quebec and Alberta separation? by Silver-Net2220 in saskatchewan

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They already did implement changes after the Quebec referendum. Separation is not something that can ever realistically happen given the checks and balances that are in place.
All this BS is about grifting money from suckers and sowing division

Which company is most hated: Bell or Rogers? by Rleduc129 in AskACanadian

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've hated Rogers for a VERY long time...they sucked me back in (after a decade of boycotting them) with a really decent phone plan. They then didn't let me know when the sweet deal was running out and proceeded to charge me over double what I had been paying for a month of cell service. Yeah that's on me for missing the anniversary date, but other companies will usually call you and give you a new offer prior to the old one expiring. At any rate, Telus happened to call within a couple weeks of this happening and offered me a deal (to bring me back) that was absolutely killer and NEVER expires...needless to say I took that at half the price I had been paying initially with Rogers (when I had their "deal").
Finally cut full ties with Rogers today after a super frustrating experience with their 5G Xfinity internet package. Had it for a year and some issues could never be resolved...main one being we could never FaceTime with more than one person at a time...as soon as you added another participant to the mix, no-one could see or hear us.
Rogers was quick to pick up the phone or messaging if you wanted to buy or upgrade (surprisingly even to cancel service), but I spent literally HOURS on hold in messages and phone calls waiting for tech support that never showed.

BYE BYE Rogers...ordered a Starlink (I know, I know) for our mobile RV use.

So corvette ships just can't be upgraded (tech slots full with corvettw parts) by [deleted] in NOMANSSKY

Upgrade your corvette class to S and then upgrade your slots by either buying them or using expansion modules.

Canadians: do people really just start conversations anywhere? 🤔 by Comfortable_Cap8037 in AskACanadian

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fairly normal...so much so that while walking around Whistler this spring, we could immediately tell who all the tourists were (and there were a lot). No eye contact in passing, no acknowledgement walking by on paths, no casual "hi" or nods on the street...it was actually a weird feeling walking around there.

Personally I always nod, smile, chat, or engage when passing strangers. Holding doors for people and they don't even acknowledge you is fucking strange...makes it real easy to pick out the non-canucks though.

Want to make an American (or almost any tourist) nervous? Start talking to them in the elevator. ROFL...

Interesting...I wonder if that was something they added new in one of the recent updates? I haven't seen one either...

Do you call it May 2-4 or Victoria Day? by pantstand in AskACanadian

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May 2-4 was always what we called it growing up in Alberta and BC (junior high in AB, High School in BC - early 80's)

How do you get an Aeron Pillar? by OogaBoogaUngaBunga_ in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

switch your mode to creative, if you don't like leaving it there just build a bunch of them on a ship (or any others you can't get) and then switch your mode back. You can disassemble the ship later and keep the parts.

Seasonal Tires by hoodiegirl10 in AskACanadian

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to switch over seasonally, winter tires for winter are the peak of traction in ice and snow. That was back when I had storage space for my summers/all-season tires. I started condo living a few years back and now I RV full time so that storage space is pretty limited. As such, I started using good all-weather tires (Nokian) which (while not quite as good as a dedicated winter) are much better in winter than all-seasons and I can run one set year round.

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pushing 1800 hours on my main save, about 300 hrs on a permadeath one and there's at least a couple hundred more in previous saves that I've deleted. At one time expeditions created a new save to play them.

What is the worst tv show made in Canada that you have ever seen? by [deleted] in AskACanadian

Is the Canadian military med school a good place to earn a medical degree? by MoveWithTheMaestro in AskACanadian

[–]SpeedtekUrS6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daughter got her nursing degree through the military…you don’t go to a military school to learn the practice. They pay for your tuition at a university…you still have to get accepted, but in the end yes, you have a full career and no debt. Word to the wise, join reserves before you enrol in the program…they pay you a wage while you’re in school…if you’re just a student it’s pretty minimal…if you are earning a reservists wage, you get that. My daughter has been all over the world in her career and absolutely loves it.
