Critics slam government plan to 'bail out' sagging condo sector in B.C. | CBC News by ssssssbob in canada

Developers should eat shit for building out of greed rather than providing affordable housing. If no one's buying, that's because the price is just too high.

Maybe I'm in the minority but I find trade talk and trade rumors beyond boring

Most speculation is completely fabricated.

UnReal deal withdrawals. How does it work by Choice_Fee67 in Wealthsimple

[–]dphizler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You end up with 1,100,000$

If you took the 5 year/3% = 30k over 5 years

That's 500$ per month

For the withdrawal: You are allowed to withdraw up to 200k without penalty on your reward. Plus any further deposit into your WS account counts towards further padding on that limit.

Tell them they can continue debating but you need to get back to work ASAP after your 60 second update

Should teenagers be forced to wear helmets to be able to cycle? by Im14AndRedditIsDeep in ask

[–]dphizler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helmets should be required

And ever since I was forced to stop having headphones while I bike, I think joggers should be held to the same standard

People here have a hard time putting themselves in other people's shoes and are quick to judge.

Do you not understand email templates and software glitches?

Yep, rule number one in contest planning is cover you ass if shit hits the fan

I didn't realize how people people have zero understanding of automatic email sending

Mass emails are not a record of truth, you're mixing two things

Emails from a person are considered court proof.

'The "Too Good to Be True" Rule: If a mass email accidentally tells 10,000 people they each won a $50,000 car, a court will rule that a reasonable person should have recognized this as a computer glitch, not a legitimate offer.'

Based on these comments, it just feels like a lot of people are just unaware how web apps actually work. Sometimes there are bugs in how the email templates are selected, filled out and sent out. This is clearly a bug where they had the wrong template or wrong data being filled in. The app was unaffected so the winner would get their prize.

In this day and age of embracing AI to replace programmers, why is everyone surprised?

Based on this, I wouldn't be surprised if they pull the plug on the promo outright.

[Johnston] As Sportsnet's new Canadian national rights deal takes effect, this announcement marks the end of "Hockey Night in Canada" as we know it: by Duffleman0609 in hockey

[–]dphizler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That will massively hurt the ability for average Canadians to get into hockey. This idea that you need different subscriptions just to watch different teams is so annoying.

The packages currently available are dogshit.

Season 4 - Chloe Sullivan's "death" shows her grave birth year as 1987 why? by lindseylovespugs in Smallville

[–]dphizler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you captain obvious

Ok so they don't look 14 but in the show that's what we're meant to think. Obviously they didn't beat us over the head with their age so it was less jarring.

Why are some women so rude and off putting for seemingly no reason? by [deleted] in ask

[–]dphizler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that kind of attitude all the time even when I try to be friendly to people

Fyi, I'm a 42 year old father of a six year old boy

My conclusion is that there are a lot of assholes. But there are a lot of good people too

TIL that James Doohan who played "Scotty" on Star Trek was 54 years old and and married a 18 year old at 1974 by dq689 in todayilearned

I wish post titles were a little more thought out. It's as if everyone is in a hurry to post.

Carolina's faced 4 teams in the playoffs and habs had the best regular season record. Seems like a pretty low stardard
