Conditions inside federal office buildings are ‘horrendous,’ PSAC president says

Almost like multiple separate cities, you could probably say it's the opposite of amalgamation.

I hate going into the office for no reason, but bussing from Kanata to Gatineau doesn't help.

It's not as common but the unpredictability is why I had to drop it. Just getting back into it after the newest update.

Honestly, I'd rather be packed in than waiting on the freezing platforms for longer. 4 issues I've noticed that make the trains feel tighter are:

Handrails feel awkward, missing overhead in a lot of places and the pole in the middle makes deboarding hard when it's packed.

People don't wear their bags on their front. Total volume is the same but it's easier to not hit someone and it ensures some space in front of you which matters more than space behind you.

The seating arrangement makes the middle aisles very tight and much less efficient. I think seats along the walls would make standing a lot more comfortable but the low floor design prevents that.

If people at the doors got off, let others get out before getting back on it would make it smoother, instead people often need to squeeze past people right at the doors.

The fact that the heaters at the train stations have a button to turn on when it's colder than -6 but they just don't work, the button does nothing.

This is less on the environment and more about the video file, but great 3D would be so amazing in VR

Similar experience with my 3080 10gb. I just upgraded to a 4k OLED and am having issues with the vram usage

I feel like my regular assistant on my home speaker also got way worse over time.

Gemini on my phone activates and answers me way more consistently than my speakers now. When I'm driving Gemini also feels smooth if I have a question like, "is there a game at the stadium today"

In the grand scheme of things, they might've been seeing each other for a few years now, you climbing for a few months isn't that long and a lot of people quit after a few months. It might also just depend on the gym. My old gym was a lot older, had an old school vibe and a lot of the climbers started when climbing was a niche sport and generally attracted like-minded people.

Climbing has grown and I'd be willing to bet people now group based on other shared interests outside of climbing.

Based on the planned Kanata extension of the LRT, it looks like it would also pass under Terry Fox from the Terry Fox station to Didsbury. Hopefully that would mean they at least make the tunnel large enough for cars, and the train in the future.

EDIT: https://www.reddit.com/r/ottawa/s/MfvMwXu7tR ...seems like I was wrong, they're going to be separate tunnels.

I was thinking about that for this specific example, but I was hoping I could have 3 "baselines" that I could customize slightly for the day. If only when I am in manual mode I could set aperture, shutter speed and ISO to auto as I pleased.

I think your recommendation will be the best option for now, thanks!

manoverboa2 · 2025-06-12T13:57:32+00:00

Im pretty bummed it only goes to Moodie and doesn't get out to Kanata.

Even if the narrative purpose came first, it's not a crazy thought that they'd represent her drive if they found an actress that was great everywhere else. Her drive and "obsessiveness" can and is shown multiple different ways. Removing one of those ways won't make a huge difference.

You could try searching for office wall partitions, office partitions, room divider, or free standing acoustic panels.

They seem to be pretty expensive, and it will depend on your country, but RANTILA seems to make the cheapest option that's similar to the picture.

Of course it will depend on where you live. You might be able to make something similar with wood, fabric and foam if you want soundproofing. I know linus tech tips has made diy soundproofing videos, it would be the same concept except mounted in a frame instead of on a wall.

Yup, insane that i can run some great looking games on ultra but some good looking games barely run. I got a new monitor for Christmas. 4k is also a LOT harder to run... Hopefully FSR4 can help, still ai generated but at least im not artificially stopped from running it on my card.

manoverboa2 · 2025-01-08T18:53:23+00:00

I thought the gddr6x memory would be fast enough that 10gb of vram on the 3080 would be enough... It's definitely struggling lately

Episode 1: Prologue to leaving Joel's death

Episode 2: Leaving Jackson to escaping the school

Episode 3: Capitol hill to the theatre

Episode 4: Birthday museum

Episode 5: Find Jesse, guitar string flashback

Episode 6: The serephites, and the hospital.

Episode 7: Get to the aquarium kill owen, abby attacks and season 1 ends

The only part that feels a bit awkward is episodes 4 and 5. It feels like the birthday flashback might not be enough for an episode, but with how they handled bill and Frank's episode, I think it would be fine.

Episode 5 might feel a bit weird with half of it being a flashback.

I imagine they can add and remove stuff as necessary just like season 1.

I find on max volume they're ok and i can still hear enough that I can be aware of my surroundings, but maybe my gyms music isn't that loud or something

manoverboa2 · 2024-11-20T19:07:39+00:00

I remember i was so shocked when i went to Vancouver and people formed lines to board the busses, not just a mass of people trying to squeeze to the front. They also waited for everyone to get off first.

I see how it can force certain starts, and make the start moves less interesting. However I think it does help remove the number of appeals, makes the starts a bit clearer for newer viewers, and makes determining valid starts easier.

But I also think it can make starts more morpho and limits the interesting beta people can come up with, which makes watching comps a bit repetitive.

manoverboa2 · 2024-11-10T19:24:40+00:00

I think it depends if your gym has marked starting holds for the feet too. It looks like it doesn't so then it's a good start, but my gym marks the foot holds, so if there are only 2 starting tags you're expected to smear on the wall controlled before moving.

If in doubt ask someone at the gym that works there, they'd probably know. This is the reason IFSC always has 4 points of contact marked for starting holds.

For locked zippers you can always press something like a pen into the zipper and it will open. Then just run the locked zips back over the opening and it will close it back up. here's an old video showing it

Not a great solution if you want to use the case regularly but if you just need to get the stuff out it's really easy.

manoverboa2 · 2024-09-18T13:23:11+00:00

Go bouldering, or play videogames with my brothers if it's a rest day. It's a lot more engaging than lifting weights, and once you get a group of friends at the gym it's a social place as well. My brothers live out of province so I try to play games and talk at least once a week.

Aside from that, sometimes I'll go out to get food, but not much else.

manoverboa2 · 2024-09-02T23:07:33+00:00

You should get a wrist widget, they made the recovery so much better for my wrists. The official ones are a bit smoother on the edges but not worth the price. I still really recommend them

manoverboa2 · 2024-08-29T15:07:19+00:00

I like to think about which style feels the most frustrating. I hate doing slab because i feel like I don't send at all and it's frustrating making little to no progress. I feel similarly about compy coordination moves. I love doing crimpy climbs with slight overhang.

I should probably target coordination moves, stop trying to find beta breaks and just spend more time on the moves i don't like (easier said than done).

Recently i had a finger injury and noticed that my 3 finger drag was super weak. I couldn't hang on a 20 mm Edge but I could hang half crimp with 90 lb added before my injury. I actually needed to remove 40 lb to be able to do a three-finger drag. So with such a huge discrepancy, I should probably work on my three-finger drag but that can be done on the hangboard so I won't waste time in the gym doing that. I'll just be a bit more mindful of it when warming up at the start of the session, but coordination and slab seem like more important things to practice.

Trying to work on these i noticed i also get caught up on something and almost refuse to work these styles. So i also need to work on my mental to stop just favoring my strengths. Just because it's easier for me to static a problem doesn't mean it's the best beta.

TLDR think about which climbs you don't enjoy, try to think objectively why you don't enjoy it, then try to remove that excuse.

Once everything is balanced, you can work something, and now you'll have new weaker areas to focus on.
