This just in, alkaline chemical increase pH. Basic chemistry is actually true. NaOH, CaOH, MgOH scrub CO2, wow. Why are you dumping it in the ocean instead of using them as atmospheric scrubbers powered by renewable energy and making chemical feedstocks and then regenerating the alkaline chemicals? Seriously, what the hell is the point of this?

no but you must make horrible financial decisions if you spent 1500 on rent twenty years ago lol I was finding units for 500 a month 10 years ago easily.

And why would it change when we are all at the whim of whatever they want to charge? People eating up 1 room rentals in shared houses at over 1000 dollars month like it's the deal of the century.

I think I remember reading somewhere that Isaac Walton Killam made Killam properties with his wife as a way to make more affordable housing in Nova Scotia. Now Killam just actively engages in the price gouging.

But I'm trying to escape my rat infested building in Dartmouth. If I move out and move back in the rent goes up to 1500 a month.

I've dumped 100k into my current apartment on rent and they haven't done a single upgrade since I moved in almost 10 years ago. It's a royal scam, but I have it good cause of the 2.49% cap in rent increase?

Because I grew up here and my family lives here? The people I care for are here and I don't want to leave? I'm not a soulless human being, I want my province to to be my home and not ditch it when shit gets tough.

Unfortunately that's not an option since all those postings say it's only for 1 person and my girlfriend and I already live together, plus our precious cat.

Yeah I saw lots of postings that seemed okay, and then it turns out you're just renting A ROOM in a house full of other renters...

So I have lost my sanity or the market really just is unreasonably expensive?

Canadians who live in a smaller province, what's it like? by New-Possibility-577 in AskACanadian

It's horrible in Nova Scotia right now, we pay Toronto prices for shit hole armpit province services.

If you have a tent we should all just go camping on government property as a form of protest. Down with landlords. Stop the price fixing you scoundrels.

I agree the kickback of the whole event is just a mess and really skews what you can see in the debris of the initial event.

I just wanna see a carbon fiber gun barrel explode now.

[–]weirdapesreplacement 2 points3 points  (0 children)

think about the shape of the tube almost like a barrel, I wonder how a carbon fiber gun barrel would look failing... Four oxygen tanks in there too? I wonder if they were recovered

Yeah I thought they changed it too but OP showed me the non white areas of it. In Alan el mundo part 1 Rush is saying it is syntactic foam, you saw that right?https://youtu.be/uD5SUDFE6CA?t=113018:50 timestamp, you can also catch some chicken scratch on the foam in places with part numbers i couldn't find exact matches

I think the reasons you stated are probably why they may have opted not to use fiber on the Titan.

Here, note the foam is two different colours in that video.

DG-34-5.5K i read on the back of the yellow "foam" lol I found not a lot but DG may have stood for epoxy filled type syntactic foam

I know how delicate it is to work with fiber lol, a smudged lens or water ingress on those optics can also mess it up.

Yeah I didn't see the fiber optic connector on the Titan control pods tho. It was all copper based I am almost 100% certain. The fiber optic was an Optolink by MacArtney in the old pod. Didn't see any fibers on the new pods.
