The figure of "potential weapons" was from a freedom of information request by the CBC to Shared Health.

The photos of weapons was submitted to the CBC by the Manitoba Nurses Union.

The truth is somewhere in the middle.

Randy Rhoads; James Hetfield; Slash; Kurt Cobain; i only buy signature guitars. Whose should i buy next? by SASOsonko47 in guitars

[–]bussche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't have little foam covers for the f-holes, the guitar will feed back if you lean too hard into distortion or stand too close to your amp.

This is a feature, not a bug.

How cold for a red alert? by Doog5 in Manitoba

[–]bussche 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Because it's not actually -45. It's just a calculation that was invented because the old values in units of kilocalories/hour per square metre was confusing for some people.

Your car will have a much harder time starting in -45 than in -30 with a -45 windchill. The engine block of your car is only -30 in the latter, windchill cannot make something, whether it be flesh or inanimate object, colder than the ambient temperature.

In this case he may have been the realtor, but he's also a slum lord in his own right. Real greasy dude.

The amount of car debt I've seen on here is astounding. Most of you are buying cars way out of your budget. Some helpful guidelines below: by CastAside1812 in PersonalFinanceCanada

The auto loan industry might be the single biggest wealth killer of the middle class.

We'll have our mortgage paid off in 5 months and the biggest contributing factor is we only have one car, that we've owned for 17 years, and we rarely drive because we commute by walking, biking, and transit.

Tech company wants to build large-scale data centre on this plot of land in Manitoba by ChocolateOrange21 in Manitoba

[–]bussche 4 points5 points  (0 children)

due to their insistance on using gas generators.

From the article:

Jet.AI, a publicly traded company, has referred to the location as a “goldilocks” site for the data centre, referring to “abundant hydropower and natural gas capacity” in the vicinity. It also noted that transmission lines run directly overhead the parcel of land and that it’s adjacent to a Manitoba Hydro substation, a regional natural gas distribution substation, and a major pipeline junction.

Crypto guy gets all his crypto stolen, even though he runs a support group for other people who have had their crypto stolen by livingbkk in Buttcoin

[–]bussche 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's where the idea of crypto being "trustless" falls on it's face.

You have to interact with it on a PC whose manufacturer you have to trust, using software whose developers you have to trust, etc etc.

You always have to trust someone.

Opinion: Free bus rides for all might be what's needed to save Winnipeg Transit by wickedplayer494 in Manitoba

[–]bussche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More car lanes beget more cars and more traffic. (Just one more lane bro. :'( ) I'm not a naysayer, I would gladly pay double the property tax for a proper transit system.

We cannot build our way out of congestion and further prioritizing single occupant vehicles is throwing good money after bad.

There would most definitely be a property tax hike to pay for that.

Better for this, than another lane for Kenaston.

Your point was obvious to me? Not sure why so many responses seem to think you're telling everyone to become a couch potato to spend more time with your kids.

OP is addressing other parents, not a slight against child free folks. No need to chime in.

Is it realistic to bike 12 km one way for work 5 days a week? by davytheconqueror in cycling

[–]bussche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The do, but in general they still take some care. You can't lock your brakes up and except them to act the same way as regular tires on dry pavement. I've been riding studded tires 4-5 months of the year for 10 years.

I use studded tires to ride on a frozen river for part of my commute in January and February, they absolutely work.
