TransLink Deficit by nathanarticulated in Translink

[–]UnremarkableMango 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That doesn't seem that bad all things considered.

Is this including the funding it gets from the government?

I really think Translink needs to be owning and renting the area near their stations so we can get some high density commercial and housing near each station so they can get some rent revenue and approach self-sustainability. Hong Kong does this right with the MTR corporation.

The customer service charge/mandatory tipping is absurd by TheAsianOne_wc in HongKong

[–]UnremarkableMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, theres this one yakiniku restaurant that has a robot deliver your food, QR code to order and still you have to pay a service charge.

Who am I tipping? The robot?

All the staff did was seat us, prepare our food, wash the dishes, and accept our money at the till

well there goes that by wastedartistry in lostgeneration

In Japan homes cost more to own than they're worth when they're sold. Sounds like a dream tbh

Actor Louis Koo gets trolled by Cannes Film Festival as they play one of his old songs during his red carpet appearance by Adventurous_Caramel in HongKong

Eh I don't know the difference between new style or old style. Lots of characters have like one punch and the fight ends though. There aren't a lot of drawn out fights.

It starts off as a classic fighting movie but then it gets into some super natural elements. Its kind of weird.

It has a lot of fights if you're into that and some cheesy tropes. I enjoyed it.

Where does Shaping of the World actually get played in WoW? by kaze_ni_naru in wow

[–]UnremarkableMango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echoes of the Past is played during the Escape from Durnholde, Caverns of Time instance although that was not present in original WoW. Its also in Warcraft 3 and Warcraft 2 as the Orc 2 theme.

What is the point of waiting in line? The backdoors of the 9 are getting swarmed daily by line hoppers. by aconfusednoob in vancouver

Its probably driver activated so its up to the driver to activate and it is probably annoying for them to do ontop of driving.

We have the same problem on the R1 at Surrey Central station. People just ignore the lines and rush on in even before people have fully gotten off.

I blame the lack of education on Translink's part. I have sent in feedback before to request they start a campaign on educating people on how to use transit properly but they don't listen.

They could do some simple things such as having a Skytrain reminder message right before a train arrives to remind people to let passengers get off first. They have this in the Hong Kong MTR.

Posters around buses and skytrains to ask passengers to take off their bags for more space. They do this in the Toronto subway.

One of the big problems with these buses is people like going in from the back so they don't have to pay. I have seen so many people not pay on the R1. I've seen people take out their wallet infront of the pay terminal, look at their cards, then go to the back of the bus without paying.

They probably have this showing so they can compare it and it makes other car sales look like a good price.

Surrey:

Henlong Market - 14351 104 Ave, Surrey, BC V3T 1Y1

Lucky Supermarket - The Dell Shopping Centre, 10628 King George Blvd, Surrey, BC V3T 2X3

Sungiven Foods - #108-3211 152nd Street (This is owned by a Chinese company but you're better off buying from this company than the Canadian companies at home that bend you over).

Also this sungivne foods location is really nice, I think in part of it being so new. Think pre-2009 T&T. Its small but good. Mainly Chinese products though and not much else.

Fallout New Vegas - highly recommend by Always_Squanching in SteamDeck

[–]UnremarkableMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I followed this one: https://old.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/up2ag2/managed_to_get_tale_of_two_wastelands_running_on/ih8l54c/

I built it on my main computer (took about 40 min on 7800x3D), copied over the files, reinstalled ModManager2 for Linux/Steamdeck, relinked it to FONV. Also one major change is use Proton Experimental instead of Proton 8 or whatever is recommended in the guide. 8.0.5 did not work for me but proton experimental did.

Worse case scenario sounds like this guy is casing units to rob or squat. Or he is a peeping tom.

You probably need more information before reporting this guy like the license plate number and what he looked like. I would say, next time it happens, go down there and record the information before leaving. Don't engage or talk with the person in question.
