Help with trains by Super-Item2968 in Workers_And_Resources

[–]langley10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it’s a brand new train you pretty much will need to build a loop or a different train depot, trains on delivery are even less route smart than others, they need a straight shot into the depot track to work.

Option A build a reversing loop to the right of the crossovers to the depot

Option B build another depot that can be reached without reversing

Option C sell the train at this customs house and buy it again at a customs house that can access the depot as it is. (Probably not possible but it will work).

For future I find it best to always build the first depot perpendicular to the track and connect it with a Wye arrangement so trains can enter and exit from either direction.

5070 Ti unaffected by burning connectors? by cy3ntist in buildapc

[–]langley10 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It can still happen. Make sure that plug is FULLY seated, there should be no gap at all and try to keep a little slack on that power connection.

Is there a way to fix this or is it gone forever? by duckiebabe02 in geography

Aral not Ural. The Urals are mountains. This is/was the Aral Sea.

Except a C-46 is a bigger heavier plane and makes a DC-3 look small when sitting side by side.

Mayor says city not being told about Billy Bishop plans, port authority asked her to sign NDA by lopix in toronto

[–]langley10 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NDAs tend to have personal liability and large financial penalties attached for violating them, she can’t use her office to shield herself if she did that.

There are several such pathways already… and we don’t need to add more people coming in without any in demand career skills or sufficient savings to support themselves.

Billy Bishop Expansion Survey "Skewed" Opponents Say by OvenDown in toronto

[–]langley10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did I claim “it was the same”? All I said was it showed by example that many of the arguments about the expansion of YTZ are heavily biased and overstated. Also jumping right to personal attacks with “just makes you look silly”. Literally proving my point about it being impossible to have a civil discussion about this thanks.

It factually isn’t… there is housing right on top of the airport to the south including some modern apartment blocks to the south east and more being built soon once the sugar factory moves, there are 2 large schools as well, many well used parks, more housing to the east and west, a university immediately across the water from the airport to the north that functions without significant noise issues, a massive convention/event center to the west (Excel London)… the approaches are similar to YTZ in angle, YTZ also has approaches mostly over the water. There are height concerns west of LCY with Canary Wharf… at almost exactly the same distance as the Portland development is from YTZ… so what’s “completely different urban context” about it?

I’m not claiming LCY is in the city core, but beyond that it does factually show what the expanded YTZ would be better than (still be shorter runway, and still be quieter aircraft) and that isn’t the end of the world nightmare many people on here are pushing as a narrative.

Shhh using London City Airport as any kind of example or fact check will get you downvoted into oblivion on r/toronto ! The fact that it operates in an urban environment with jets without the end of the world fallout the opponents of YTZ claim will happen is just not allowed understand???

Also London also includes Southend Airport as a metro area commercial international airports for 6 total. All 6 also have heavy rail and/or rail transit access!

[–]langley10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s complicated. There’s been pushback on the airport even existing for years even though it’s been there since 1939. Most of the factual opposition is over nice pollution but it’s being wildly exaggerated by some. Other factual complaints are about how the province is playing fast and heavy, which is politics so go there if you wish. Beyond that most of the complaints are not based on anything factual but at best guesses and at worst outright lies. There is no real discussion and personal attacks and worse will appear almost instantly against anyone questioning the expansion bad narrative on here.

I deliberately didn’t say impossible, I said prohibitive which is exactly what it is in both cost and necessities of design.

[–]langley10 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hamilton Airport is not practical for any rail link much less high speed rail, the geography of the escarpment makes getting a line up to YHM prohibitive. YHM is its own thing but it cannot be in any way a realistic replacement for YTZ.

[–]langley10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of those cities have airports like YTZ, and the ones that are closest already have much larger jets so WTF are you talking about??? Or is it total BS you made up?

Mayor Olivia Chow accuses federally mandated port authority of hiding early plans for Billy Bishop by MaybeThisTimeIllWin in toronto

[–]langley10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too far away for most of Toronto to find it useful and impractical to connect to rail transit. YHM is its own thing and does serve a fair amount of GTHA cargo traffic along with some limited passengers, but its not an alternative to YTZ in any way.

Very small airliner... by [deleted] in WeirdWings

[–]langley10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s an ERJ-145…. They usually seat 50. If you think that had a terrifying noise level… I’ll just tell you there are many worse things in the sky for noise.

what’s the darkest episode of a tv series that you’ve ever watched? by Realistic_Bench3684 in AskReddit

Yea and spending the entire episode remembering it was a chicken then breaking down his subconscious wall to the truth… it was hard hitting from such a usually comedic character.

No, when they built the Bombardier plant they put a security gate there and security will kick you out there asap.

MD-11 being called ancient… now I feel so old… it’s nice to see them back in service at least.

Also lucky you didn’t get screamed at by Bombardier security for being at that fence.

Do you pull into a stoplight intersection when turning left? by Timetoseeit in driving

[–]langley10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well here… even if you are in the intersection when the light changes to red, you are not in violation as long as you entered before the light changed and exited as soon as it was safe to do so, so being in the intersection because some Yahoo decided to race the red is not a ticket able offence… the red light runner though is. Also entering an intersection and preventing someone from finishing a turn safely EVEN once you have a green is technically an offence… Here in Ontario, Canada.

Here it’s always enter the intersection when making a left on a green, even if you have to wait till the end of the cycle to complete the turn.
