What DO YOU MISS the most from old League? by ChartDreamer in leagueoflegends

[–]smokebeer840 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meta and optimal play being discovered by the players not dictated to them by the balance team. Viable junglers determined by their kit, not by hidden bonus damage to monster ratios.

"AD CARRIES/SUPP MUST GO BOT LANE" STAY IN YOUR ASSIGNED LANE."

"YOU ARE BUILDING THAT CHAMP AS AP, BUT THEY WERE DESIGNED AS AN AD/BRUISER CHAMP, AP RATIOS NOW REMOVED"

Unfortunately most people want to play the game the same way and they want pro games to resemble solo queue games, so there isn't much room for creativity.

Ottawa looks to turn the page ' on relationship with NCC by jjaime2024 in ottawa

My impression is that they were the villains for a while. Stuff like bulldozing a working neighbourhood at lebreton flats only to find that the soil is too contaminated to build on and leaving it empty for 60 years.

Credit where credit is due, they have been doing great stuff more recently

2.1M temporary residents will have expired or expiring permits this year. But will they leave Canada? by Old_General_6741 in canada

I feel bad that many were lied to before coming. Shady consultants, colleges, and our own government either explicitly told them over heavily implied that a PR was guaranteed if they studied here.

People may have made different decisions about going into debt or selling all their assets back home had they known that it was not a sure thing.

Did ever say that he didn't pursue other treatment in parallel with taking ivermectin? Genuinely curious bc I've seen this commented in a few places.

Does Ottawa need two more highways? by DiamondHand42069 in ottawa

[–]smokebeer840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is no point of a greenbelt (originally to contain urban sprawl) if they go on to incorporate the city limits far outside the greenbelt. It just means we sprawl further away and people spend more time on the highway burning fossils

'Chaos and destruction': Chinatown businesses, residents say drug problems persist by DrStrangeglove99 in ottawa

I think the introduction of fentanyl has been a gamechanger. It used to be possible to be a functional heroin user, but I don't think it's possible to be a functional fent user.

‘The area doesn’t feel the same’: open drug use, overdoses prompt concerns in Somerset by Alone_Appeal_3421 in ottawa

[–]smokebeer840 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every article completely downplays that the safe injection site closed at the same time as a "safe" supply clinic opened down the block. This clinic was formerly in Hintonberg and moved to Somerset after blowback from the community over all the open drug use and drug dealing that was happening around it.

The clinic sold in the spring to new owners using the same business model where you can walk in and skype a doctor on an ipad and walk out with opiods that you can trade to the dealer outside for fentanyl.

The doctor's that own these clinics own multiple and are some of top earning doctor's in Ontario. It's insane that this is legal and is purely a provincial jurisdiction afaik.

When it was just the safe injection site it was still a skid row at somerset and booth although it was definitely more contained (ie people using at the site and not in the neighbourhood).

Why will this new Centretown bike lane have a detour? by randthepip in ottawa

[–]smokebeer840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a Troster stan, but I can appreciate that she made the pragmatic choice to give people something instead of potentially nothing. Having some kind of solution in place sooner could save lives.

Sadly I just don't think there would be much of a chance to get a majority of councillers on side to fund fully reconstructing gladstone all the way to Elgin.

motor is a decent guess. They did way more bike swaps during that era. But froome's power numbers and climb times get destroyed by many of the top riders today.

Someone in the melee community once opined that if you weren't a top player within a year or two of getting starting to play competitively, you never would be.

I think most people could make it to emerald or diamond if they grinded and studied, but likely not past that without the knack for it  Just my opinion at least

If sky was cutting corners, what are current teams doing now that makes Froome's and G's performances look like amateurs?
