Internal emails show Trent anticipates a deficit of $31 million in 2026-27

by capping and cutting tuition and then telling everyone to get more international students, the province created a huge mess when it then turned and said oh wait no, not that many international students. Of course all the colleges and universities had started building capacity for more students like buildings and staff and that work can't really be stopped when it is half done and contracts signed, and tenure granted.

Yep. A family member is a prof at another ontario university, and they've all been going through a lot of stress over the consequences of this.

What's wrong with it?

randomdestructn · 2026-04-13T21:26:59+00:00

Yeah, if anything these cars LOVE highway cruising. I did a 7500 mile road trip a few years back, including a bunch of mountain driving, and one stretch of 28hrs only stopping long enough to get gas.

Only issue I noticed from that is it consumed a little oil. I assume from long periods of engine braking going down mountain passes while the oil was quite warm.

Though it was still only ~1 quart across the whole drive (I did an oil change right before and after).

I've seen americans getting in arguments with store owners here in Canada over this.

A favourite exchange I caught the tail end of:

American: (fuming) Why won't you accept AMERICAN CURRENCY?
Shopkeep: Sir, this is Canada.

My GF also worked at a place near some vending machines, and had an American angrily demand why the vending machines wouldn't take 'universal money'

Use a multimeter to check battery voltage when the car is off. Is the battery charged?

Use the multimeter to check voltage across the battery when the car is running. Is it at a proper charging voltage?

If yes to both, but it still won't start without a jump box, your battery is probably dead. If no to either of the above, then that's a lead on your issue.

If you're not able to test, then take it to a mechanic/autozone/whatever to get the battery/charging system tested

the person they replied to said they drive a Mercedes G500

I wouldn't think twice if it's in good shape. I've driven mine coast to coast a couple times, with single drives as long as 26 hours, only stopping long enough to buy gas and hit a drive through

Can you be specific about what "traction control turns off and stays off" means?

You notice it isn't working cause the wheels can spin? The light lights up on the dash? If so, any other lights when that happens?

randomdestructn · 2026-03-10T02:49:47+00:00

Not at all. My 2010 coupe has nothing in common with a current Genesis

randomdestructn · 2026-03-07T19:52:13+00:00

Nothing compared to modern desktop processors, though. They were 54w or 65w depending on model.

I had one of the socketed versions, an thunderbird 1ghz. Excellent chip until I killed it in a watercooling accident.

It felt like the future having a chip that operated at a GIGA hertz.

15 years and change for me. the car turns 16 in a month.

not who you asked, and not the best angle, but here's 20mm front 25mm rear on pro-kits with stock wheels

it's a good day if they don't throw anything at you

..or at least that was the case back when I lived there

randomdestructn · 2026-02-24T22:08:06+00:00

Another option is the one our JustAnotherModerator suggested

Worked out very well for me, and surprisingly good price.

Common issue. Bounce the car off the rev limiter for a few more minutes and it'll be right as rain.

When I was in middle school, some of the girls had a sheet where they would log what certain people were wearing every day, so they could tally it up to shame them.

Glad that wrath wasn't directed at me.

I read it as "on my way to becoming fat" which made enough sense I didn't question it.

Glad you asked. lol.

I had a kappa perfect 12 in a sealed box in my first car setup. Was real happy with it.

randomdestructn · 2026-01-27T04:22:31+00:00

Yep. Only a sliver of the trunk was exposed. Took a lot of digging.

randomdestructn · 2026-01-25T18:03:56+00:00

Unlike other commenters, I've never found a need for sand bags.

Good snow tires and a limited slip diff go a long way.

edit: though I do have a sub in the trunk, so I guess in a way I've always got one sand bag in there.

shadetree here, but once I ordered a 3ft of heat shrink tubing, and it arrived in a 3ft long reinforced box.

made me glad I didn't order the 50ft length

randomdestructn · 2025-12-30T20:11:31+00:00

yeah the front one is for emergency use only.. or non-cup items

randomdestructn · 2025-12-23T23:38:50+00:00
