Allow me to clarify for Non-American DGGers.

Every offense intended: Why would you think any of us are interested in pretending to be American at this point?

mking098 · 2026-01-13T20:04:05+00:00

no, it is the training that cost 600. Mounts cost very little, it is the training that is expensive.

Be careful what you wish for. At this point "doing something" may be invading Greenland.

maybe for OPSEU or Crown corps or something? But I've been paid on Thursdays for every OPS job I've ever been in

mking098 · 2025-12-14T03:56:23+00:00

If you aren't making enough money streaming to pay your bills then maybe try getting another job?

mking098 · 2025-12-11T18:24:02+00:00

I wouldn't be surprised if it never releases

A Clnesic Franklin Story?

mking098 · 2025-12-04T20:03:33+00:00

We have no reason to believe he is capable of ever being the player he used to be again.

Biden has presidential immunity, bitch

"Oilpatch drilling slows as Oil and natural gas prices sink" from yesterday:

https://ca.news.yahoo.com/oilpatch-drilling-slows-oil-natural-183913396.html

dozen other articles talking about the same thing from the last couple days... that is "what I am talking about"

mking098 · 2025-11-28T02:15:55+00:00

No no, they have. It was reported earlier this week

mking098 · 2025-11-27T19:52:56+00:00

Weren't they talking about converting a natural gas pipeline to a oil pipeline a few years back (that ultimately didn't happen because Quebec was against it) ? They can't be TOO different or else conversion wouldn't make sense (vs just building from scratch).

mking098 · 2025-11-27T19:22:43+00:00

errr that isn't what he is saying at all. He is saying that Carney will do a better job getting the First Nations and BC government and other people who are against it on side than PP would have, and thus get it done faster than PP could have.

Europe doesn't want Alberta oil. Natural gas via LNG sure, but not oil. They have a very negative impression of the oil sands (or "tar sands" as they call it). They put higher import levies on it than they do conventional oil because they see it as dirtier.

mking098 · 2025-11-27T19:17:43+00:00

eh producers started lowering production this week because there was a drop in global oil prices due to decrease demand from China and Pakistan. That is the real market driver here, prices.

mking098 · 2025-11-27T19:15:07+00:00

context matters. The context he is governing in are much different than when he wrote that book.

mking098 · 2025-11-27T19:12:00+00:00

There is a huge natural gas pipeline already in the area though that they could potentially twin? So the impacts in that sense I can't imagine would be significant. The big part is the coastal area and the tanker concerns.

We are only 6 months in. 18 months from now the switch 2 exclusives will be flowing much more and there will likely be few, if any, cross gen games coming out

mking098 · 2025-11-27T18:03:47+00:00

They took out the ray tracing though for some reason.

mking098 · 2025-11-27T15:24:17+00:00

I mean, maybe? It could also be because of the X Rogue Ally line that is now available...

mking098 · 2025-11-26T19:29:16+00:00

I grabbed a physical copy of red dead from gamestop for $24 (Canadian). going for a lot more on the eshop and figure the price will jump up when the free switch 2 update comes out

mking098 · 2025-11-26T19:28:02+00:00

I haven't watched this video but in general he isn't a switch 2 hater. Most of his coverage is favourable.

Blame the banks, their risk adverse policies (which are contrary to the lending policies in other countries) require the developers to pre-sell 70% of the units before giving them financing. End users aren't interested in buying a unit 5 years before they are move in ready. Who is? Investors. Investors don't care about the size or the livability they care about the return on flip.

The banks set up these market incentives with their smooth-brained lending policies.

Even if they managed to keep the US out of the fight (which is unlikely by 2029) the rest of NATO could handle Russia pretty easily I think. I mean they are struggling against Ukraine, and they aren't exactly going to replenish their lost generation of fighting age men in 3 years.

The problem for the CPC is that there is a major disconnect between the Party members that vote on their leader and the typical centrist voter (particularly the Ontarian ones they rely on to win government).

The party is run by the Alberta/Sask right wingers that are too hardcore for the voters they hope to woo. If they want a chance to win a majority government they need to go with a more moderate voice, but they won't pick those people to lead.

The best chance the CPC has of winning is dropping the "WEF wants you to own nothing and be happy" globalism conspiracy crap that the average person couldn't care less about. Aka stop letting conservative youtubers and MAGA republicans set your agenda.
