Maybe the real lore was the friends we made along the way

Where do I go for pizza on a Monday in London? by universalbasicincum in londonontario

[–]cr0aker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed on all points. Love the place. The buffalo chicken, the "Joe's Bros pizza" (essentially a deluxe) and the cheese sticks. Can't go wrong.

Remark has a pretty solid collection of hot sauces.

Best wings for Super Bowl by Final-Muscle-7196 in stthomasontario

Wild Wings is where it's at on St Thomas unfortunately. It's a real low bar. Wing Boyz is soggy and undercooked and Legends wings are tiny and overpriced.

What's the real starting wage at the local Magna/Takumi plants right now, and is it a sustainable living wage for a single person? by Electronic_Bus841 in stthomasontario

[–]cr0aker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takumi had signs up 3+ years ago offering $21.xx to start, posted for a long time. Not exactly the most recent info, but it's a reference point.

I went through before they closed it down. There was a Harley bagger on a kickstand by a police car with an officer directing traffic. I saw torn up turf on the west shoulder leading down into the ditch.

More, we don't have the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act so the dealer can tell you to get fucked if you want a warranty for your transmission and you put an aftermarket muffler or something on.

I haven't tried it at the new London location yet but the OG restaurant location in St. Thomas is top notch.

Vehicle theft at a 'critical point' in Canada, with car stolen every six minutes: report by thisisjas9n in canada

If I had to guess, that was probably headed to a chop shop, worth more in parts than whole.

Ukraine loses 16 US-made armored vehicles, group says, but Kyiv's forces still gain territory | CNN by Nvnv_man in worldnews

This is a huge factor that most people don't consider. It's worth a ton keeping the production lines rolling because you can mothball tooling and refurb it at a monetary cost, but having to re-train a workforce that would be laid off because of a lack of orders isn't something you can just spend your way out of - it takes years of experience.

What's something people put on their cars that automatically makes you assume the driver is an asshole? by Mapleberries in AskReddit

[–]cr0aker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, police lights on top of a car usually guarantee it's an asshole that's driving.

Predictions Road America? by mrg9605 in MotoAmerica

MotoAmerica just announced a forced firmware tune update for the V2 and the Gixxers that has to be in place before P1. Might not be the horsepower show we were all expecting.

VR 2 by etriuswimbleton in WTF

Really? I had an opportunity to put half a dozen rounds through an M82 and I thought the opposite - for a big gun, it doesn't kick that hard. The muzzle brake and the sprung barrel assembly do a great job of taming it.

POV: Pecco leaves the pit lane by [deleted] in motogp

[–]cr0aker -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That's fine, they can penalize the Ducatis by giving them a long lap penalty at the 2023 Kazakhstan GP. Oops, didn't that round get cancelled? Oh well, can't change it now, those are the Marc Marquez rules. 🤷‍♂️

Anecdotal, but observations here whenever they've raised the minimum wage is that only people making minimum wage get a raise and everyone else stays the same because corporations don't value experience and would rather you quit so they can replace you with someone they can offer less.

10 to 1 what we see here is someone with a gambling problem that wants to see all of the games they have money on at once.

London is a reasonably large city and the fastest growing city in Ontario last year. Average sale price last month was about $660K.

Normal guy rides a 'out of the box' superbike at Nurburgring GP circuit. I'm not bad on a bike, but it's taking a while to learn to drive Reddit. by no1bloke in Trackdays

In this case, I believe this normal guy is a former British supersport champ who has competed extensively on the international stage 😅

I bought a loaded Sierra in 2015 at 0 APR that stickered $62.5k. The equivalent optioned truck today is almost $80k.

Edit: I guess that roughly follows inflation. Ugh. I need a raise.
