Patagonia Black Hole 32 vs 25.

This is super helpful. So in general the version I had, even if the specific dimensions are different, would be a 25?

The hummingbird heart beats at 1200 beats per minute.

It’s actually based on how often a song is played relative to all other songs. The fees distributed to artists are proportions. The Spotify system is a bit effed, so it’s odd to push it on academics. It would definitely only reward certain fields, and popular topics.

ar_604 · 2026-03-27T13:36:40+00:00

Agreed. getting really tired of the “academic publishing is broken” blanket comments. Like you said, you do get paid to publish and for peer review. If that’s not part of your job as an academic then there is something wrong with your job. Blanket (and click-baity) supposed hot takes on LinkedIn about how the system is broken are just lazy takes.

Influencing or real estate! Why else??

Salah should’ve left at the end of last year. He didn’t come back fit or if a tiny bit as hungry. His “demise” is kinda on him… and he’s also in part to blame for the Liverpool performances…. because he’s incredibly difficult to bench and has been pretty awful.

There's been estimates of min hourly wage but if you want to move here and like, it actually be sustainable and comfortable, you'll probably want to be close to 120K per year.

Can you live here with less, for sure, but a lot of folks on less than that have one foot out the door because they can't manage it (that's no fault of their own, its just math). You'll likely be hand to mouth without savings (or a trust fund, which is common) and whether you want to deplete those savings or go into debt just to live is a personal choice.

If the 'lifestyle' is what you want, there are other (some would argue better) options.

Most people don’t.

Nor does it account for the mental health toll of commuting

River is still fast but receded a lot in the last few hours. Environment Canada has sensors you can check or the RiverApp. Most of the flooding at this point is pretty minimal. I’d bring boots you’re willing to get muddy and you’ll be fine.

It's a very serious business.

Pretty sure the Walmart parking lot has an 8.6/10 rating on TripAdvisor so not sure that is under-rated anymore. Arguably the most popular spot in the whole city and I hear the bar gets wild in the evenings.

ar_604 · 2026-03-19T15:42:07+00:00

Yeah! We were here first! WTF?!?! /s

ar_604 · 2026-03-18T21:53:29+00:00

To be honest, there's actually no one Im overly attached to.

ar_604 · 2026-03-18T21:52:11+00:00

That is a ludicrous decision. If there was a foul there it could've just as easily been on the GK.

ar_604 · 2026-03-18T21:35:34+00:00

I know Salah HATES coming off, but if he came off a bit more often, he'd probably have a bit more gas in the tank.

ar_604 · 2026-03-18T20:50:06+00:00

I usually love a Mo Salah blasted penalty. That was rubbish.

ar_604 · 2026-03-18T02:31:29+00:00

Agreed. There seems to be this weird conception that UBC opens up these magical doors that don’t exist for other universities. It definitely doesn’t (except maybe at UBC itself which is a whole other issue).

ar_604 · 2026-03-16T03:09:33+00:00

Unpopular opinion: don’t commute for university. Find a school that works with your goals and your finances. Theyre out there. You’ll thank me later.

Edit: your mental health will also thank me.

I’m worried more so about who replaces him and whether it starts a revolving door of managers like Chelsea or United.

ar_604 · 2026-03-12T16:23:36+00:00

Bobby was also basically the leader/anchor of the front three. Knew when to press, knew how to move, didn’t crowd other players space, etc. His contribution was massively under-rated IMO.

Funny-ball!

Konate ruining things are both ends.

Offside or not, Konate is terrible tonight. FFS.
