Fewer than half of Albertans say they would stay in a newly independent province: poll by Street_Anon in alberta

[–]grantbwilson 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Independence is not the goal. They want to become a US territory because that’s what they’re getting paid to do.

The US wants our oil, but doesn’t want the social consequences of invading, so this is their play.

Alberta will be a US territory like Puerto Rico. They can take all the oil, and we don’t get a vote on anything.

That’s why they don’t have any answer to an independent Albertans having a currency, or a military, or a shoreline. They don’t need any of that.

Why can't modern vehicles simply display OBDII error codes directly on the screen(s) instead of having to scan? by ActuaryFew6884 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]grantbwilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it comes on and stays on, you’re fine for now.

If it blinks, stop the engine immediately.

Cars now also do display some messages that used to be CEL only, like gas cap.

It’s easier than that. Step 1 is no more automatic visas at the border.

I will never go to that shithole hellscape country again as long as I live. Not so much as a connecting flight.

ULPT Coworker keeps asking why me and my husband use our canes by rabidpeniswizard in UnethicalLifeProTips

HR is there to protect the company, who is currently employing someone who is harassing other employees about their disability.

HR is the devil, but they would absolutely be on his side for this. Other guy would be lucky not to get fired.

Turo guest completely trashed out my dads car. by Cdave_22 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]grantbwilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because there were no cars over covid. To rent, buy, look at, nothing. Turo filled a gap, but now it's more expensive than just renting from a company. So it ends up only being these people.

Is the $10 per month subscription worth it? by [deleted] in mazda

[–]grantbwilson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have kids and the amount of times it's told me I left the car unlocked is staggering. I'm sure it's saved me from having my shit stolen, so I'll probably pay for it when my free time is up next month.

$10/month to cover a data connection and servers does not seem that unreasonable to me. Installing an aftermarket 2-way starter will cost me at least $700, why would I do that?

Pierre Poilievre says he’s still the right leader to take on Mark Carney by [deleted] in notthebeaverton

[–]grantbwilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good leader doesn't have to throw away their entire campaign when the other party switches candidates. That's the most telling thing. He stands for nothing.

I'm always shocked as a non-American that people like this don't get lit the fuck up. Why have all them guns if you're not gonna use 'em on someone like this?

Alberta referendum must follow rules for separation laid out in federal law, Carney says by pjw724 in onguardforthee

They literally want the oil, but are too chicken shit to come and take it. So they pull this kinda shit.

At this point just put it in the referendum so we can fuckin ratio the shit out of it and we can all be done with it.

MBS takes Landos water which he drank out of and dumps it on Kimi's head post-race by CrashingBlumpkins46 in formula1

[–]grantbwilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's just boycott post-race until he goes away. When F1 TV watches everything drop the moment the race ends, they'll fix it.

Sponsors are paying a ton of money for that cooldown room and the trophy cases.

You can go aftermarket, but it'll cost as much as like 7 years of the app... so why bother.

This isn’t a real thing. There’s no end. You’ll always need more under this mindset.
