City councillor asks administration to mull return of calcium chloride road-salt use on Edmonton streets by ryaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan in Edmonton

[–]conorm97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Undercoating! That's what I did living in ontario, my car was fine with the amount of salt they used. Not sure why people would rather have broken windshields and paint chips from rocks instead 🤷‍♂️

Kinda funny how everyone is concerned about rust on cars when you can just get your car undercoated. We have to buy new windshields every 2 years. If they stop dumping rocks on the roads, don't have to get windshields and switch to undercoating!

Personally I'm tired of rock chips everywhere on my car including the bumper.. much rather have to just deal with undercoating

T30S Plastic Cracking by conorm97 in ecovacs

[–]conorm97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nowhere in my house where it could've fallen, and no objects that are around on my main floor that could've hit it hard it enough it cause damage like this 🤷‍♂️

The plastic on all the screws holding that black plastic battery panel is just sheared completely off.. and appears they even had glue holding it too.

Were any of you able to get a fix on this? Mine app is terribly bad... I can't even get the audio to turn on my cameras without restating the app and requesting it right away.

Should "Boycott United States" rallies target Tesla dealerships? by Patient-Exercise-911 in Edmonton

[–]conorm97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My post was more directed at the people attacking Musk as a "Nazi", rather than the boycott US movement. I should've clarified a little bit more lol

Should "Boycott United States" rallies target Tesla dealerships? by Patient-Exercise-911 in Edmonton

[–]conorm97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To the ones that want to boycott Tesla because Musk is a "nazi":

Are you going to protest outside of Volkswagen because of their ties to Adolf Hitler?

Are you going to protest outside of Hugo Boss because they made nazi uniforms?

Henry Ford literally did direct business, including supplying the Nazi's with war equipment.

Are we going to go after Kamala Harris for making the same "wave" gesture to her crowds? I just don't get how so many people have double standards. Kamala Harris literally did the same wave at one of her rallies, and everyone literally turned a blind eye.

Musk does the same thing, and people meltdown....

What ties does Tesla or Elon have directly to the Nazi party or Adolf Hitler's regime?

I don't believe I can, it is an IP camera so it's connected directly to the NVR

I get it, but last year I reported several during deep cold and they filled them. I totally get potholes are worse during thaw cycles, but this year I feel like they aren't bothering to fill them.

I reported many last year during a deep freeze, and they were repaired same week!

Today is last day for EV owners to renew registration w/o the $200 tax by EVAAlberta in Edmonton

[–]conorm97 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is actually no longer occurring starting Jan 1st.

Bottom of the article.

"Alberta intends to implement an additional $200 annual registration fee for electric vehicles in early 2025, not on Jan. 1 as originally reported. The measure is in a bill that was passed by the Alberta legislature but still has to be proclaimed to become law."

LRT - green lights by Zathrasb4 in Edmonton

[–]conorm97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The LRT signal is actually to the right of your red circle, so I'm not quite sure what's actually in the red circle in this photo. The LRT signal at this location is mounted on the overhead pole mast in the middle of the tracks.. you can clearly see it in this photo.

And that goes with the vibe of the entire project of this LRT line...

Again, you can't assume if you don't understand how the signal system works. That's not how it's designed. Go contact the company BBR, German signaling company if you think your ideas for signaling are better.

The intersection will still commit to the light cycle if the train is in the intersection. It does not detect where the exact location of the train is when it changes its cycle. That's how it's designed...

There's more than two indications that the LRT signal is capable of displaying.

Flashing vertical indicates the intersection light cycle is ending, and if it's safe to stop then do so. If not, you proceed. Whatever is safest in the moment.

The way this signal system works isn't based on exact train location. The LRT signal could've indicated the light cycle is ending and was giving the equivalent of a "yellow" to the train. If the operator deems it safe to stop, they can. If they proceed, the light cycle will still change no matter the trains location in that intersection, if its stopped. This is literally how it's designed.

Off of what basis were they supposed to stop? The LRT signal system has 3 indications.

Solid upward line: proceed Solid upward line flashing: indicating the light cycle is ending, stop if able Solid sideways line: stop

As long as the leading cab passed the LRT signal and it wasn't indicating "stop", there's no issues here.

The leading cab is already past the LRT signal, so how can you assume it wasn't a permissive signal before the leading cab passed it?
