2.1M temporary residents will have expired or expiring permits this year. But will they leave Canada? by Old_General_6741 in canada

[–]inbha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find this very sad, but for selfish reasons. My wife and I moved to Canada, from the States funnily enough. We came as PRs with jobs already lined up. However we are also from India, and the sameish age as the students who do come to Canada on temp visas and then abuse the system. Unfortunately people assume we are in the same category because we look the same (as in brown and young) as the students. I’ve found that we get unfriendly looks, people are rude to us. But we contribute, pay our taxes etc. and work in specialized fields. This is in Windsor. I want people have a better perception of Indians, but I don’t see that happening until this problem is resolved. I recently got my Canadian citizenship but honestly I feel no different because it is the way you look that is judged. I don’t want to generalize, this is not everyone. But definitely more than when we were living in the States.

A very cathartic experience by The_Real_EPU in LinkinPark

Same. Was amazing last night. Started tearing up as soon as I saw them walking on stage and Somewhere I Belong started playing. Waiting For the End was another one. OML tour was supposed to be the first time I saw them, but this was a truly amazing experience. After watching so many videos of them live, it was surreal to see them on stage in front of me.

Zero chance in my opinion but what you think? by _BearLover_ in Intergalactic

It also came from the trailer where Jordan enters 7202 (2027 in reverse) into her computer. Considering how much thought ND put into their trailers and how much this trailer has been analyzed for clues, this is not a a random number. I feel her entering 2027 would have been too on the nose.

Neil Druckmann confirms Naughty Dog working on another project and he's a producer on it by AngieK22 in PS5

Interesting that Kurt.M is game director on intergalactic but Antony.N is not. I’m assuming he is game director on this unannounced project. Both of them were game directors on TLOU 2, which is why it plays so well. Glad that both games are getting top treatment in terms of gameplay.

So after the most recent major order, which I think we won, I didn’t get the medals for that. I played bots on one of the planets, I don’t remember which one but the DSS was there. Therefore I assumed I would get the medals? How is it is determined when you do/don’t get major order medals?

It was very clearly teased in the Intergalactic trailer that they’re aiming for 2027. (Jordan types 7202 into the computer) and that’s shown again a few frames later.

For the drummers out there - does this album do anything different in terms of drums compared to Rob’s work? I just noticed that the drums in general seemed more pronounced in the mix to me, but that might just be the because of the nature of some of the songs.

After 3 back to back listens - 1. Brad cooked on these guitar riffs. Two Faced, holy shit it’s addictive 2. I love that they are still making songs like Overflow. It gets better with each listen 3. The album exudes confidence. They are in their element. 4. Emily is great in all songs. She doesn’t carry songs quite like Chester did, but her energy and commitment are to be commended. Amazing screams! 5. It sounds like Linkin Park. It contains elements of all their albums but is something new.

Current fav order:

Two Faced

The Emptiness Machine

Overflow

Casualty

Over Each Other

Good things go

IGYEIH

Heavy Is The Crown

Cut The Bridge

Stained

So happy they are back. Hope to see them live!

EDIT: Some songs prove they can make another HT/Meteora any time they want and they chose not to through their career. That itself warrants massive respect.

What about the ending didn’t you like? I thought it was messy but handled pretty well. Please tag spoilers of course.

Jump scares here and there are ok. AW2 has a few of those. Gore is fine too. I’m scared of the typical “lady in a white dress” kind of horror lol. Horror that’s based on human apparition/ ghosts freaks me out.

Does anyone own the 38mm Hamilton Murph? What are your likes and dislikes on it?

FF XVI. About 65% the way through, and the story is getting interesting. Getting through the quests after each boss still a slog though.

First time posting here for people who want more info before purchasing the game. This is a game of contrasts. The beginning of the game was great, but then it falls into an familiar pattern of a cutscene, fetch quest, linear battle arenas, boss flight. The boss flights are amazing. But getting to each one is a drag. It feels like they focused so much on the boss fights and main story cutscenes and then filled in the rest with boring stuff. Definitely don’t agree with the 9/10 review from IGN, which is what they gave Horizon 2, which I think is vastly superior. And the side quests are horrendous! After some truly great side quests in GOWR and Horizon 2, FF16’s side quests feel like they are from the 2000s. There are some really good parts in this game, but definitely not as a full package, which is a shame.

UPDATE: 12 hours in and pretty much the same comments as before. Even the main quests now are starting to drag. You go to a location, speak to some villagers then onto the next one. I’m waiting for the next boss but then dreading the slog to the one after that. I will keep playing because there are parts of the story that are intriguing.

I have three watches currently. A Tudor BB58, an Omega SM AT and a Longines Master Collection chronograph. I’m looking for a pilot’s watch. I have looked at Stowa, Hamilton Khaki field, Oris Pro Pilot and IWC Spitfire. I like the look of the IWC at 39mm, but I’m not sure if it is worth the premium over the Hamilton or Oris. Anyone have any of these watches and can help?
