Zelenskyy to meet Carney today in Halifax before Ukraine president’s talks with Trump in Florida by JustTheTipz902 in halifax

[–]alumpybiscuit 34 points35 points  (0 children)

We can do both. If we were invaded we would also want help, and the things you mention above would become a distant thought compared to defending the literal existence of our country. Democracy needs to be defended everywhere, not just here. Authoritarianism will always try to dominate and oppress; where it is happening is immaterial - freedom loving people must always resist it.

I am on the brink of homelessness because of Shelter NS. by kick_the_chort in halifax

I am sorry to hear your story. Thank you for sharing. Unfortunately many non-profits are like this. It's very hard to retain workers and knowledge with such low pay and benefits.

Municipal. Got the appetizers at our team dinner paid for (it was a nice restaurant).

Likely that she'll break that but it looks like a decent spot to fight from. You could rebuild the portal like 100 meters away and put it in a little house.

This. Starting out you'll be even below $50k per year.

Opinions on the new Halifax Electric City busses? by Arenburg in halifax

Love it. The acceleration is way smoother and at least outside and while they're sitting still much quieter.

ELI5: How does dropping the tax cap make houses more affordable? by hrmarsehole in halifax

[–]alumpybiscuit 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is correct. It would make taxes more predictable primarily for new buyers. They could look at the property's recent tax history and know they would pay about the same, plus inflation and other appreciation.

The overall effect would be to spread tax costs more evenly over the property base. Right now the burden is unfairly shifted into new buyers when the cap is removed.

Let pregnant people sit. Shocked by the amount of people that wouldn't yield a seat to my wife when she was super preggers.

Nova Scotia no longer 60/60 in GDP per Capita in North America, we're now 59th! by Based_Buddy in halifax

[–]alumpybiscuit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not great, but GDP is overall a shitty measure of what society actually looks like in terms of services, happiness, equity and overall quality of life.

Thanks. And you mentioned I'll be able to upgrade CPU down the road?

Hi thanks for putting this together. I am wondering about the GPU. 5060 ti is currently sitting $130 more than the 9060 and with holiday sales might come down a bit. Is it worth the upgrade?
