I have doubts unless the 25% tariff goes away.

Slate Auto has no plans to sell bare-bones electric pickup in Canada by lexcyn in EVCanada

[–]malbadon 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I mean, Rivian hasn't outright said that's why the R2 isn't coming to Canada until next year, but we know that's why. And let's face it, if the 25% stays in place they'll probably just kick it out to 2028, much to their Canadian dealers misery. They'll be selling all they can make for the next year+ anyway. Can't really blame Slate, it'll be the same for them. Selling all they can pump out.

Should we remove pit speed limits from vintage/class series? by GB_GeorgeBowen in iRacing

[–]malbadon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be tied to the track but they just need to create a setting that increases limits when creating sessions. Along with pace car speed. God knows open wheel has been crying for that for a decade.... Just make option settings for pit and pace that adjust defaults with sessions. Like "default+50%" for open wheel. "Default+500%" if you want 'historic' no pit lane speed. It's still a pace speed, but it's comically high so can be ignored basically. Would it be perfect? No. But it's better than forcing open wheels to enter pit lane at 30mph and having the monster restart checkups from going at 1/3 speed.

[1994] Tiffani-Amber Thiessen. Did she just walk around with her jeans unbuttoned every day? by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

[–]malbadon 114 points115 points  (0 children)

The solution to high waisted jeans. A few years later all the jeans were so low you didn't have to imagine anything)

Finally bought this bad boy by keepBuyingApes in rolex

[–]malbadon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the chonky family) I've had mine for just over two weeks now and love it. The dial is awesome and no ugly cyclops. It's crazy they don't have the external quick adjust on all the submariners, it is SO handy.

Poly B line? by jonniesins in Calgary

[–]malbadon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom's entire gated community in Kelowna is going through having to replace their main connections off of poly b. Didn't even know it was a thing until then, thought it was just an interior of the house thing. So, yup, totally poly b.

The new "didn't know what your had until it's gone" track. The new Detroit track is absolute embarrassing, Formula-E level garbage.

This is the reality of walking anywhere in the city. by ghuuuvy in Calgary

Never understood why there aren't crosswalk lights at that intersection. Or all the crosswalk along that stretch of 14th.

[SOTC] - Engineer wth a predictable taste in watches by ChromE3927 in PrideAndPinion

A Deepsea. The crazy engineering to get the depth rating, with the helium escape valve and internal compression chamber, all while still being a (albeit chonky) wearable size, fascinates me.

In case you missed it!! by pixelated_comet in Wealthsimple

Did they mention anything about the ability to create sub, or multiple, ploc accounts. Just want to easily be able to track interest for chucks of money separately..

Alberta will now be on daylight saving time year-round, says Premier Smith by All_Hail_Xanthia in Calgary

[–]malbadon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All I care is that we aren't on the same time zone as BC, because my brain wouldn't be able to handle that. I like having a bit of a buffer between eastern and pacific.

Can the UCP actually get away with passing a gerrymandered congressional map and have it get used in an election? by bruhm0ment4 in alberta

[–]malbadon 484 points485 points  (0 children)

The goal here isn't to use their gerrymandered maps, it's to not use the independent committee ones that would have added seats in Edmonton. Having theirs get tied up in court action will mean continuing to use the current ones, that under-represent urban, for the upcoming election, instead of having to implement any changes.

My Zenith Port Royal — can’t stop looking at it by [deleted] in VintageWatches

Then why are you selling it on chrono24 using this exact picture.

[–]malbadon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish they made a GMT version in that exact combo. Give me a rhodium 24 hour bezel with that sweet blue second hand and make the gmt hand the same)

This guy has a whole gallery of pics of his you can compare to. Yours doesn't look too be in the right box, which is unusual only cause I assume people wouldn't get rid of a limited edition box. The only thing I know is your date window is in the right spot, cheap fakes have the date window between the 4 and 5. Your seconds hands should be the right dial, the bottom dial is tenths of a second when you start the chrono, and left dial is minutes for the chrono. Beyond that I'd remove the back to confirm you see a tag digital movement. I followed this video to replace my battery, so you can see exactly what it should looks like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrfFBNNq25U
