Looks like six more weeks of winter.
They're going to be up there a while in that little shuttle!
So, most people are evil then??
We need a movie, TV series and porn block.
Just think about the amount of time the average human being could save in one year.
Canadians don't like buying things made in China despite buying the majority of our goods from China.
I met a researcher that was measuring swimmer sweat. To do it he had to patch part of their body with a waterproof detector. Spoiler alert, they do!
It would look like a lot of free baby sitting. Where do I sign up?
Pretty surprised at the difference between leather and fur. Poor cows need better PR.
This is written as if it is bad news, but it's good news right? Investment in fossil fuel is slowing and renewables is increasing.
I don't completely understand the focus on bank financing. Banks will finance profitable projects in countries around the world. It's the job of governments to make fossil fuel project unprofitable. The financing is a symptom, not the cause.
The fact that real per capita gdp growth is no longer declining is a huge win in my opinion.
And he gets paid for it? A lot of times you end up giving power away for free.
The app store is a massive pool of free-to-play shit.
I tried a few times, but the video and audio are often out of sync. Anyone have this issue?
The lies trying to save face when problems were first disclosed shows a massive difference in culture. SpaceX livestreams blowing up rockets. Boeing dismisses and delays when there is a problem with their ship.
It's a polymer just like synthetic rubber. It isn't like other natural products. Wood can rot because it's made of cellulose, but rubber can't. Nothing eats it.
I had a similar thought, but when I looked into it, the difference between natural and oil based rubber is not significant. Natural rubber would be just as bad.
What is your default sort?
I haven't seen a thread on this in a while. I have been going with top day for a while, but it can be hit or miss. Other sorts don't seem to display as good in terms of balancing quality and quantity. What is your preferred sort for your main feed?
Edit: Realizing that the people who sort new commented before the hot/top/active people, haha
Climate changes increases insurance premiums
Recent CBC article citing statscan data.
CPC Signing Up New Candidates
I feel like the CPC is trying to import the American constant election news cycle to Canada.
If Thrift Stores sold food, what would they sell?
The first thing that comes to mind is a big plastic bin filled with burnt burgers for 4 for a dollar.
Edit: I guess I was thinking more prepared/restaurant food.
What financial services do you use?
I'm curious what products and services everyone uses. I like trying out new services, but it seems like the big banks are pretty effective at squashing competition.
I'll go first: Chequing - BMO Savings - Wealthsimple Investing - Questrade with Passiv Credit cards - BMO, Costco, Amazon
I have tried Brim (credit card) and Koho (kind of a chequing account), but eventually dropped them because they couldn't effectively replace BMO.
I'm interested to know everyone's experiences with their banks and other financial service providers.
Edit: This thread has been amazing! Thanks for all the replies!
This sub is entirely CBC
Why is this sub just CBC news stories? Does a bot add them all? They are mostly empty with no comments. Makes for a strange feed.
Edit: I think I just need to figure out which way to sort my feed. Sorting by hot gives me almost all CBC.
Edit 2: CBC is great. I am commenting on the state of c/Canada, not the quality of CBC
