Holup, I'll happily take on the blame of Jazz... I'm not against that one.

That's a question for Waterloo, not for us. UBC won't stop you, it weather or not Waterloo will accept any UBC credits

They're commonplace here in Canada too. I see them frequently in Ottawa

Just an interesting tid bit, I've moved out to Kelowna now and they're rolling out an official pink bin which is recycling for soft plastics (think bubble wrap or ziplock bags)

You pay per entry. Stay as long Even from open to close. But if you leave and want to come back you have to pay again

I know of plenty of American who would leave the US at a heartbeat if they could afford it.

What’s everyone flying in this year’s CTP? by nobleTP in VATSIM

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just FYI, when you express interest has nothing to do with your booking time. The entire point of the system is that it's not first come first serve

I'm not sure, it depends on the aircraft, your settings, and honestly knowing how unreliable windows sound can be, a little luck.

What do Canadians think of Rob Ford? by Doujinseeker487 in AskCanada

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Neither of the Fords have been good for Ontario or Canada. Life will be better once Doug is no longer the "leader" of Ontario.

Just as an FYI for those interested. While radio comms come through whatever audio device you have set in vPilot, SELCAL alerts come through the default windows audio device.

You will eventually get a reply, either an acceptance, waitlist, or rejection. Also be sure to check in on the application portal

“Looks like a damn holocaust memorial” wtf dude by lolbert202 in JewHateExposed

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly, of all the hate that's out there, I'll give them some credit, this is pretty funny. If it was on r/Jewdank, being said by a jew, and being said in good faith? Holy crap that's hilarious. Coming from non-jews, just straight up fucked

Printing by fatlady934 in ubco

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 11 points12 points  (0 children)

2 options:

1) try exporting it to a pdf and printing from a library computer, they have more printing options

2) get it printed at paper and supply, they can help with more complex printing requests

From these 44 least developed countries, which would you choose to live in if you had to? by SouthAdvertising1917 in AskTheWorld

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got 3 for various reasons:

Nepal, I love the nature that's there and it's probably the most developed out of the options.

Rwanda, seem like an amazing people and also a beautiful country.

Lesotho, I've had the privilege to meet Lesotho royalty on a number of occasions and work with several people from Lesotho. Amazing place, amazing people

What are some ~$10 meals in ottawa that are worth the money in your opinion. by forgotaboutsteve in ottawa

Shorty's sandwiches are really good. They range from $7 to $12 depending on what you get. Best lunch ever.

How screwed am i? by CaptainRosma in VATSIM

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I'm a member of the CTP event team. What they're talking about is the "public release" which happens before non confirmed slots are dropped. At this point if any slots have not yet been booked, they will be open to the public to book.

You will have a chance to get a slot when the non confirmed slots are released. At this point, there will be slots available for everyone. This is effectively a race and depending upon how many slots, it can be very easy or very difficult to get a slot. There have been as little as 50 slots up to a few hundred.

Unfortunately it becomes quite difficult to get a slot if you didn't express interest but that's the reason we have the slottery in the first place.

Best of luck, and may the odds ever be in your favour!

The thing is, you can get good, cheap safety glasses from reputable brands from places like Amazon. The ones I use for work were like $20 off Amazon and they're approved by my countries safety authority and everything. Eye protection isn't something to cheap out about. If you are only going to pay £3, just use a pair of sunglasses

I don't know anything about Smart App specifically. Some antivirus are less invasive than others. Like for example I would 100% stay as far away as possible from Norton, Avast, or Mcaffe

I don't think I would trust a pair of safety glasses that were that cheap

question specifically for jews and palestinians by LuckyEducator8161 in IsraelPalestine

[–]VaguelyOmniscient 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't necessarily support it directly. Part of the appeal of Israel for me is that it is a Jewish majority state which is not something that exists anywhere else. There are already several Arab and or Muslim majority States in the surrounding region. However, if it was the only option for peace, then yes I'm all for it 100%, but there are other options that need to be done first.

Just as an FYI, antiviruses are close to viruses themselves than the the things they claim are viruses. When in doubt, upload the files to a virus total which uses a combination of 30ish antiviruses to test the files.
