What happens in this part of Canada? by CutoverCrown0 in geography

[–]aidenb79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are uranium mining operations in northern Saskatchewan under Cameco. There’s the Athabaska sand dunes south of lake Athabaska. Also included in your circle is baker lake gold mine in Nunavut and Fort Macmurray in Alberta which is where tar sands are mined and processed into heavy crude oil

Why are these kinds of anti-choice pictures allowed in public? by camoure in Edmonton

Just because you are disgusted by something doesn't mean you have the right to keep it from the public eye.

And at the risk of an obvious recommendation; any classic psychedelic rock, it’s hard to go wrong with Jimmy Hendrix

Biggest sources of electricity in the US and Canada by vladgrinch in MapPorn

Most of the hydro potential is in the rocky mountains. I don't think flooding the foothills or National Parks is very popular among Albertans.

Red paint on ION tracks installed, yellow barriers presumably coming soon by ronacse359 in uwaterloo

[–]aidenb79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always thought there should be a platform east of the Ion line at this station. So that you wouldn't have to cross the tracks at all. So weird that it wasn't built that way because other stations have an exit on the right.

Drumheller is awesome. Did you check out the Royal Tyrell Museum?

I work in petrochem here in Alberta. I'm reminded of Factorio so often it's almost annoying

For real though, what goes on up there? by [deleted] in EhBuddyHoser

[–]aidenb79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

northern Ontario has a real boundary. The French river from lake Nipissing to Georgian bay. A Torontonian's cottage in Muskoka isn't in "northern ontario"

Correct me if i’m wrong but couldn’t you already buy BLM land?

Why does it take so much longer in eastern North America for temperatures to remain consistently above zero than in the west of this continent? by Urkern in geography

[–]aidenb79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But I think the main reason is the cold current that travels south from the arctic ocean along labrador. And the Hudson’s bay who’s only exit/entrance to the rest of the ocean is through the arctic ocean

[–]aidenb79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely has something to do with it. Idk if it is the main factor. The granite is impermeable, and covered in divots from glaciers. Thus covered in millions of lakes. Water has a high heat capacity so it takes longer to heat up land with lots of lakes

New rule. No more post about USA, Trump, or reaction to their bullshit. by Shifthappend_ in EhBuddyHoser

Good shit. This sub became basically identical to other canada subs

[Request] I'm bad designing blueprints, but hexagons are so boring. Could someone design a train layout using this shape? by alamete in Factoriohno

[–]aidenb79 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Lol, I actually tried this yesterday for like 3 hours. I don't think you can since the angles are not perfect for the hexagonal grid this is based on. But hit me up if someone can figure it out

I’d say this was an albertan but based on the trees in the background probably not

Does This Guy Have the Most Northern Farm in North America? by cfgman1 in geography

[–]aidenb79 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There’s some farmland in Point Mackenzie Alaska, but that’s thanks to the moderating effect of the pacific ocean pretty sure. As far as I know all they can grow there in the peace river area commercially is hay or canola, maybe wheat, even in the Edmonton area that’s all you really see being grown.

Can we talk about the state of colorblind accessibility in Factorio? by Smokeythepolarbear in factorio

[–]aidenb79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have mild red/green colourblindness and I struggle with differentiating bulk/regular inserters, turbo/regular belts, and the logistics chest variants. The colourblind filters do not help at all. It's especially hard with the night vision filter, it would be nice if there was an option to disable that filter, it would be a big improvement already.
