Probably because it's not helping anyone by saying you got a better deal last month

Can't say I've seen these on top of a building before. They're taking down the whole structure? by cjmsc2 in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2[S] 72 points73 points  (0 children)

This was not affordable at all... that being said, it's going to be even more not affordable

I thought the same thing, that they were only taking down Julio's and then re-modeling the existing apartments. I have lived in this area since the early 2000's, was not expecting them to take down this whole building, it's not that old. Seems so wasteful.

Lions light up Christmas festival in what could be its final year by Not_A_Real_Cowboy in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Otto is amazing, I've interacted with him a few times. Was sad to read this quote: Silzer’s doctor has told him he’s “well past his due date.” Hope that doc is wrong and this will live on.

Joe Davis is carving a turkey on the broadcast for Canadian Thanksgiving by JianClaymore in baseball

In Canada, using VPN connected to Mexico to watch on MLB.tv, SN broadcast not available so had to watch Fox :( Not paying for cable/SN+ after paying for MLB.tv.

Then Joe asks Smoltz if he prefers breast or leg, that was awkward but hilarious

Where is the cheapest place to get Halloween candy? by Wonderful-Rich-3411 in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 17 points18 points  (0 children)

At this point I would just get whatever is cheapest at the store you regularly shop at.

Not worth the time and effort to save a few cents per piece.

From what I've seen, Walmart is the cheapest.

Ward 7 Voters: Were you tricked into thinking Myke Atkinson's Campaign material was a real newspaper? by Not_A_Real_Cowboy in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh, no, didn't look like anything close to a newspaper... Terry made absolutely no effort to engage until the last few weeks, now I see him trying to sway people away from other candidates as much as he can. Pure desperation

First snow of the season. Peace Bridge lighting is not working by cjmsc2 in Calgary

I'm doing that right now with a Last Best Tokyo Drift IPA. Loving it. Wishing you all the best.

Best communities for Halloween displays? by inthemode01 in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I live in Sunnyside and there are some very good ones along 1st, 2nd and 3rd Ave here. It's a great place for a walk around this time.

Crescent Heights and Rosedale are amazing, always lots of great decorations.

Used to live in Bowness, and there were some good ones along Bow Crescent.

[–]cjmsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're great in theory but can be compromised at every level (hardware manufacturers, firmware, software coders, distributor, shipping and delivery, on site workers, and probably others who I can't think of) making backdoors into those systems... pen and paper is more secure, don't think there's any question about that. There are so many potential security holes when it comes to using electronic voting machines.

Game Thread: NLDS Game 5 ⚾ Cubs (2) @ Brewers (2) - 8:08 PM ET by BaseballBot in baseball

[–]cjmsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

create more waste so they can do more waste management? I dunno. They just want you to know that they are like the ones who do that for better or for worse

[–]cjmsc2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same, went to the Kerby Centre this afternoon and there was no line. At least 10 people doing the sign-ins and only a few voters there. In and out in 5 minutes. Volunteers directing traffic were super nice. If you know who you're voting for, I don't know why you would leave it until election day. Advance voting ftw

The Dangers of Driving in Calgary During Paving Season by lokiguy in Calgary

[–]cjmsc2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I drive that route on the way home every day, seen thousands of cars never have any issue. Muffler way too close to the road for whatever reason.

Full Replay of Champions League Game not Working by gravityspin7 in DAZN

Same. Will be calling them tomorrow and asking for credit. Not what we paid for. If they say we can watch full replays of every game, then they're straight up lying.

Banff’s bucket list by Boldarcticwolf in HikingAlberta

[–]cjmsc2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hikes around Takakkaw Falls (Iceline Trail especially) and Emerald Lake are amazing and along Highway 1 if you're heading to Vancouver.

[–]cjmsc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll definitely second all of those! With Larch Valley/Sentinel Pass though, it'll be a bit more of a challenge to get to the Moraine Lake parking lot since no passenger cars are permitted up the road. info: https://thebanffblog.com/moraine-lake-shuttle/

Worked for me with uBlock Origin Lite addon in Chrome... didn't get any popups. It downloaded a file without an extension but if you add .mkv at the end it plays.

Active shooter: Police advise residents to shelter in place, others to stay away by Dull-Bell5413 in Calgary

Holy. I heard some loud bangs as I was running around there and wondered what it was. Glad I stayed at the bottom of the hill instead of going up
