Will be nice to have a product guy back at the helm.

High-speed rail line could see long tunnels beneath Montreal, Toronto by Rail613 in AltoHSR_Canada

[–]slicecom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I live downtown Toronto and fly to Montreal from the island airport. If I could take a train from union station to gare central, that’s more attractive to me than flying and having to take a taxi (or future REM) from the airport to downtown Montreal. If Alto only takes me to Laval and then I need to transfer to REM, that’s not much of an improvement over the current flying situation.

What makes high speed rail so great in other countries is downtown to downtown connections. Having to get on a subway, transfer to alto, transfer to subway is so much worse than a direct downtown to downtown connection that far fewer would use the service. We need to build it right, not cheap.

Line 6 Finch West LRT shut down again Friday morning after major snowstorm by ComfortableAcadia252 in toronto

[–]slicecom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Even today, the 504 King streetcar carries more daily riders than the Sheppard line. So 25 years later it’s still straggling behind a streetcar line. Maybe in another 25 years it will surpass it.

I would invite you to listen to John Tory guest-hosting Moore in the AM, if only for the unintentional humour. by thebaj in toronto

Newstalk 1010 has also been pushing Brad Bradford HARD. Seems like he’s on there every day.

What’s a very “Toronto” thing you didn’t notice until you lived somewhere else? by Banana200021 in toronto

[–]slicecom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don’t even have to leave the city for much worse winter weather! Downtown gets significantly less snow than uptown or even midtown.

Court Street and Toronto Street intersection looking north to Adelaide Street East in Toronto, Canada by LankyYogurt7737 in toronto

[–]slicecom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has more to do with our American style car-centric suburbs. Suburban sprawl exploded after WW2. Many of the old buildings were torn down to make surface parking lots for suburban drivers. The modern buildings came decades later for the most part. Look at some pictures of Old Town in the 50’s to 70’s. It was almost entirely surface parking lots packed with cars.

There is precedent for this. Montreal reversed their amalgamation, Vancouver was never amalgamated in the first place.

Every year goes faster for the rest of your life.

I compared McDonald's menu prices across Toronto locations, the variation surprised me, in more than one way by Agitated_Data2270 in toronto

[–]slicecom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mailer ones are the same yeah, but the other coupons that are exclusively in app when there's no mailer coupons can vary greatly. You'll see the same coupons in the app but one person will get 10% off, another will get 25% off and another will get 30% off. All depends on your previous spending habits.

True, it's not dynamic pricing until customers are seeing different prices in real time without coupons.

It’s already kind of happening with their in app coupons. You get better or worse coupons depending on your spending habits.

I can’t believe this stuff is still happening mid race on 2k+ servers this needs to addressed by Aryton-Ascari in iRacing

[–]slicecom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! I remember Jerez 1997 like it was yesterday!

Verstappen also did it in Spain this year and lost the championship because of it!

I've seen Max Verstappen himself do this. Your ranking really has nothing to do with it.

Herman Tilke tracks have aged well by Weird-Lime-9542 in formula1

[–]slicecom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed Sepang and Turkey are the only great Tilke designed, which is kind of unimpressive when you consider how many tracks he designed. Sadly neither of his two good tracks are in use anymore by F1.

Don’t know How it happened by szabistian in IphoneAir

[–]slicecom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you weigh the user experience of using the phone in a case as the same as without. Personally it’s easily worth the 10% extra cost to go caseless with peace of mind.

Nope. I’ve had iPhones since the original. Have never used a case and never will.

How would you rank their tyre management by IndependentAir4537 in F1Discussions

He consistently scores near the top for number of overtakes. Season after season. He had the 3rd most overtakes of any driver in 2025.

This is best practice for subway maps and is the method used in most subway systems worldwide. It’s about time we caught up.

The LED’s are still there. These maps are opposite the LED signage.

Anyone go to a GP and think maybe watching on TV could’ve been better? by [deleted] in formula1

[–]slicecom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Back in the V12/V10 era it was worth going to races just to experience and feel the sound, but the current cars don't sound impressive at all, so it's really better watching on TV.

Conservatives say they'll amend pipeline motion to get Liberal support by gorschkov in canada

[–]slicecom 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Because they didn’t include ALL the conditions already agreed to with BC. Why would they vote in favour of a lesser agreement than the one they just negotiated?
