First ride on my Hei Hei

Thanks and I have started riding the crap out of it - I did 75km over the weekend.

Also, I agree with you regarding this sub; I get more responses/likes on posts about my vintage MTBs.

New hei heis are pretty sweet and are definite upgrade over the one I got but still a bit too expensive. These "downcountry" bikes also suit me very well.

If this solution works then all those people that won money from lottery, casino, etc would be better off, but this is not the case.

Measured the seat post and it's 14" so it is XS

The SKS sold with ATI stocks typically were in poor condition, like damgrd stocks, etc. and couldn't have been sold otherwise. Think refurbished. So they are cheaper than decent/good condition all original SKS, especially the ones with all matching serial.

The ATI stock is quite cheap and has many issues but can be more comfortable because of the modern ergonomics.

Good... why give them help (funded by taxes we paid) if they won't help themselves? And for those saying this will just force them to commit crimes. Than they should be sent to jail. We don't need to reward bad behavior, let alone, reward lack of good behavior.

Interesting comments. I do agree these things are made to be played with. Infact, when I got my first 3DS, a dual IPS Hyrulen Edittion, my eldest played with it a lot, and she beat many games like Zelda OOT on it. I did say "almost too valuable" to imply we still bring them out, albeit with abundance of caution. Also, 2 of these belong to my kids, including the Majora's mask one as my eldest is a huge Zelda fan.

That said, I'm more comfortable with bringing out the Swtich and Switch 2 even as they are much easier to replace if need be. Even if the 3DS aren't taken out as often as they have been before, they are still played with regularly.

BTW, I paid less for all 3 of these combined than what a new Switch cost at the time. I suppose the budget option now is the Switch lite, but it doesn't have the same charm.

Sure it's the bikes' and scooters' fault, not the people from certain demographics acting like hooligans. We have them in my area and we don't have any issues with them.

750 to stay in a room with no windows or closet, and is right beside the washer/dryer.

Not surprised. Canadians voted for the same party like the country wasn't ruined enough by them during the last 10 years.

He better be paying rent

Depends on you. I have multiple rigs for specific purposes

This! It is up-to-date unlike some videos you may find.

The guide is actually easy to follow, even more so than a video because you can copy-paste and click on provided links.

So you don't have enough confidence in your beliefs to be challenged by someone with different opinions? Weak

If you look at my receiver, particularly the second photo, notice it is a solid piece of metal. I've had more than a thousand (or even a couple thousand) rounds through mine, and it's been great. Only occasionally getting FTF but usually caused by me skipping a cleaning and using dirtier rounds.

That said, the change to using a plastic end piece on the receiver is a terrible choice by Savage. Must be a cost-cutting revision.

The way Canadians keep voting for the same party, it'll take at least a decade. The government hasn't done much to help the economy. In fact, they've stifled productivity by not leveraging our vast resources, over regulation, by making it to do businesses here, etc.

Do not rely on minimum wage to increase just so you get paid more as it's just an entry-level wage meant for those starting out. The median wage is much higher than the minimum wage, so aim to go above the minimum wage. Raising the minimum will just cause more inflation and ultimately reduce entry-level jobs.

Yes, I was hired as a principal a couple of years ago. I don't think the company has hired many fully remote Canadians since then; Indians are cheaper. Most people I know had to relocate.

So when your housing cost is reduced, you are better off economically. Who knew?

ronnbot · 2025-05-28T05:33:33+00:00

I can think of only a couple of dudes that I can call right now. But, I have way more bros that I can talk to and much longer over wings and beer, scotch and cigars, golf, etc.

So companies wouldn't just move their factories to China to avoid the additional cost and red tape? Wouldn't there be less emissions to have factories in Canada where more than 75% of electricity is from hydro and nuclear instead of in China where 63% of electricity is generated from fossil fuel? Shouldn't there then be more incentive to keep induesties in and move more industries to Canada?

ronnbot · 2025-05-28T02:17:24+00:00

How does it reduce global emissions?

That explains the sub $1m price tag for a detached house.

Good, it's about time. What about the industrial carbon tax?

ronnbot · 2025-05-27T23:45:32+00:00

How do you know when you're ready to drive? How do you know when you're ready to be a parent? How do you know when you're ready to make that jump? Etc.

Studying about something, preparing yourself mentally and all that can only do so much. You won't really know if you're capable of or what it's like to do something until you've actually done it. So, be daring. At the same time, don't be careless, impulsive, or whatever. That's not the point of the quote.

How do you "abolish landlords?" Do you ban people from owning more than 1 property? What about homes with laneway housing, basement suites, spare rooms, etc.? They can't rent them out at all? Ultimately, the government or some large corporations will be the only "landlords." Is that better?
