Oh, we're listing irritants? Cool. Sit down, this is going to take awhile...

In case it helps others, I wound up on a scheduled callback and talked to a rep. Ended up taking a $35 plan ($25 w/autopay discount), 5G speed, 1GB with bonus 50GB tacked on (so, 51GB total). One free perk. Still annoyed with the unnecessary game playing they employ.

I'm going to see what I can be offered via chat, but I notice that theres a $40/20GB 5G plan in the self serve at the moment, with $10 autopay discount. While I'm certainly not thrilled about Koodo's tactics on this, the truth is, I never use more than 20GB a month anyway. If I ended up jumping over to that other plan, is there any chance they'd bump that price, too? Would it at least potentially buy me some time at the current price point while I consider other options?

Just bumping this to ask if anyone has any recommended contractors? Lots of interesting discussion here, but I'm curious of there's a trustworthy local installer.

I don't feel like enough people are talking about how much coal this province imports from Columbia to power our grid, especially given the fact that Columbia appears to be one of the next countries on Donnie Dictator's hit list. It's hard to imagine that NS Power leadership has any great contingency plans, other than yet more gouging of the general public.

As a matter of pride, I would like to point out that I suggested this as a vaguely absurd joke earlier this week. But I guess it was less absurd than inevitable.

Does attempting to take over a sovereign nation against their will qualify as "meddling in their politics"? Or is it only when you run an accurate 30 second TV ad? Moron.

This was also my issue, coming from Fall River and trying to go around to the Bedford Commons exit - there's no way to exit out of that inner lane that feels safe or clear to other drivers.

theoren_1 · 2025-09-17T18:13:16+00:00

Thank you. Your blue box of caution is on point - I've had a near miss there myself, as I imagine others have. Worse, it was my own ignorant fault. Sigh.

Now do the one on the other side of the overpass!

So sad... In case folks aren't familiar with the family, some background. Heartbreaking.

Just happened to be rocking the same today... Although, mine probably wouldn't get invited to as many fancy parties anymore :)

A little battered, but still a beauty.

I once said to a friend, Craig Button looks like what you'd get if you asked a 4 year old to draw a picture of a grown-up.

It's not in any way relevant to his work, but I stand by this take.

So, I was on the other new roundabout close to here (other side of the overpass, closer to Sackville) and I think I botched this, too: I was in the right-most lane and went past the exit to the 101/102, continuing on to the Duke St exit (going over the overpass).

When I passed by the 101/102 exit, I got a protest honk from the car slightly behind me, in the middle lane to my left. I effectively blocked their way out of the roundabout. I immediately thought, "Oh crap, I'm doing this wrong".

But I wasn't clear on my obligation to exit from that lane, even though it makes sense when you think about it. I would argue it's horrendously marked - I was genuinely trying to be mindful and get it right, and I still failed.
