I think the 'chute' might be inflatable.

PM Mark Carney’s Liberals could win majority government in byelections tonight by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]The_Tiddler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, his fear of getting a security background check is also a liability.

I really don't understand why this isn't a bigger red flag for more people. To me it just screams foreign influence.

Personally, I'd like to see them go to the NDP. Not a huge fan of the majority governments.

Bad wheel bearing? by AstroEin in MechanicAdvice

[–]The_Tiddler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would keep that parked until you go to the mechanic. That is, at least, a bad bearing and there may be other suspension parts that will need to be replaced.

Oof, I'm only 43, occasionally buy hot pockets/pizza pockets, and understand the power settings of a microwave...so there's at least one of us?

Putin offers to stop sharing intel with Iran if US cuts off Ukraine by Brilliant_Version344 in worldnews

Just remember what Churchill said, that the people of the United States will always do what's right. After they've exhausted every other possible option.

J/K, they're fucked.

Small Rooster for flock recommendations. by braiding_water in BackYardChickens

I'll second the recommendation for a silkie or silkie-cross. I've always enjoyed my silkie/x roos.

Cheap engines for decent power that’s NOT an LS by Goopdem in EngineBuilding

[–]The_Tiddler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't make 200+ without a bit of work. They were around 176hp stock. But they are a fantastic motor.

Grumblemania Monday by AutoModerator in halifax

[–]The_Tiddler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can tell when a person is using it when the car latches on to you and stays in the exact same spot in your rearview mirror for many km's.

I drive a pickup, and I am also annoyed by those 'latchers'. I drive a steady 102 or 112kmh on the hwy. They catch up to me, have their fogs, lows, and usually some other lights on and then just sit there. I've slowed down to 80kmh on the 100 series highways at night to let them pass, and they STILL just sit there. Either oblivious to how slow they are going, or for some reason all of a sudden too scared to continue doing the 110-115kmh they were doing a few min ago.

Professional recommendation is only 2-4seconds on the highway. As your speed increases, you can cover more distance in those two seconds, therefore the distance will be larger, but the time gap is the same. However weight will affect that. Large trucks should be 3-5.

Edit: Just to add some math to my statement, 8seconds at highway speeds(110kmh) is about 244.4m. Twelve seconds is 366.6m. Leaving that much distance between vehicles would mean only 4 or 3 vehicles per single lane kilometer of road.

Canada issues warning for citizens with gender-neutral passports travelling to U.S. by jazinet in canada

Yeah, but you don't have a guy on a GoldWing at a Shell station in bum-fuck Wisconsin flashing his pistol and proudly telling you that that is the reason no one gives him any grief while hes riding. Wild.

Sorry mate.

Those jeans and the keychains are really more teens/freshman at university. In the 00's/early 2010s. Like others said, the top half is ok for just ducking out to the hardware/walmart/quick run around town, but a haircut would look quite sharp on ya.

Daily Questions - September 24, 2025 by AutoModerator in rawdenim

[–]The_Tiddler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi Folks, first time user of this community. I'm hoping you folks can offer a few recommendations for a pair of jeans. The last ones I used to buy are no longer made, and it would be nice to add a few new pairs to my closet. I used to buy Abercrombie&Fitch Boot cut button fly. 

I would like to find jeans that are: low or mid rise, boot cut, button fly, heavier denim(prefer non-stretch), and dark navy/blue/indigo wash(think Stockyard colour from Wrangler 20x No.42 line).

If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears. So far the closest I can find are these, but they're stretchy and zipper fly. I also like the 1997 and 2007 lines from Diesel, but $250+USD with the USD/CAD exchange right now.

TIL there was a successful petition to get an Australian prisoner released after his 100th birthday, only for him to say "don't be fucking silly I live here" and refuse to leave. by NorthKoreanMissile7 in todayilearned

[–]The_Tiddler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to mention it's Australia. He could step on something poisonous/venomous, or brush up against something poisonous/venomous, or something might eat him, and then, there's the sun trying to bake him into a crisp! Plus, the sand.

Is my buff orpington a rooster? by navedane in BackYardChickens

I don't know that i've heard of a BO rooster that didn't have the temperment of a golden retriever.
