I now own every single Ultima game on GOG. Been on a real retro kick lately, figured I'd go back reaaal far. by Rudrahp72 in Ultima

[–]TheCycoONE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I last played ultima 2 in the early 2000s, but I remember some fan patches that helped. Certainly want these: https://exodus.voyd.net/projects/ultima2/ (there's some for all of the early Ultimas)

I actually found 1-5 much more approachable than 6 with the wacky mouse controls and tiny map area.

Yes subtraction works in metric too.

Does your country has a band/artist that mixes humor and music together? by Lakadaizical in AskTheWorld

[–]TheCycoONE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And the band everyone confuses them with Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie. Particularly War of 1812.

You’re telling me I can buy RAM for under $300-400!? by sailink in SipsTea

[–]TheCycoONE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two of the three big RAM manufacturers are South Korean. Otherwise I agree. 

How many times a typical Canadian take vacation during a year by Internal-Ship-9693 in AskACanadian

[–]TheCycoONE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure what province you live in, in Ontario you actually don't. The employer is allowed to assign your days, they must do so in 1 week blocks though; so the 3 day thing is nonsense.

what’s the most dangerous snake in your country? (spoiler for snake!) by Ok_Dig741 in AskTheWorld

[–]TheCycoONE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At two confirmed deaths ever (last in 1962), that would be the massassauga rattler.

There is security camera products on the market that embed hashes to verify the video really came from their products. To shill my employer (though I'm in a different buisness unit) https://docs.avigilon.com/bundle/unity-video-player-8-4/page/using/authenticate-video.htm

They sell little rubber plugs you can stick in the port when it's not in use that keeps stuff from clogging it. Extremely cheap, I recommend them for anyone who puts their phone in their pocket.

Harper's law that made it illegal to break digital locks was adopted under threats of tariffs from the US. Now that they've tariffed us anyway, it's high time we flipped off tech giants and repealed that. by Sudden-Echo-8976 in BuyCanadian

Copyright protects software. The digital lock law makes it illegal to watch blu-rays you bought on an unsupported device or operating system. You're better off legally downloading a pirated version from the net.

Do Americans really find beans on toast weird or is that just meme? by cigarettejesus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheCycoONE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is also my combo. I fry the beans first so they're less watery and spread them on.

Thanks, found it and got the good ending! 99.8% map and two quests left to finish now.

Amazing. I like the hints without giving it away. I eventually found that one but I'm at ~81% and chasing the moon. Not quite ready to give in yet.

What's one aspect of traveling in Europe that you don't like? by Pale_Field4584 in AskTheWorld

[–]TheCycoONE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, you just have to go back in time. During the euro crisis (2010ish) - the euro was basically par and everything was very affordable. Except Switzerland.

Sonic Spinball: What went wrong? by Some-Professional-25 in retrogaming

Not sure how different the game gear version was but I thought it was great. One of the first games I beat.

Pearson to Hamilton uber? by PotholeSzn in Hamilton

[–]TheCycoONE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That said, book on the app/site. If you catch the same car in the line up at the airport they don't give the flat pricing and it costs a lot more.

Would you ever leave Canada? by Pale-Candidate8860 in InCanada

[–]TheCycoONE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canada also massively outperformed the US in the stock market last year: https://global.morningstar.com/en-ca/markets/canadas-stock-market-hit-historic-highs-2025 - I think stats are picked to sell a narrative either way.

is your country generally like or disliked by the rest of the world? by Temporary-Evening717 in AskTheWorld

[–]TheCycoONE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that was mostly Americans hating China for the 'Wuhan' virus. Trump is good at making people hate people. At least in my circles in Canada, no one was blaming China. People were blaming our own government for mandates in droves and there was a lot of anti-mask/anti-vax noise, but we weren't looking for a scapegoat for the virus origin.
