Driver spotted going 234 km/h on Hwy. 174 in Ottawa's east end
  • 32kmph is not absurdly slow for assisted ebikes. Bozos without helmets riding the blue bixis in Montreal can be dangerous.

    Additionally a lot of non-e-bixies are imported from the US, or god knows where, that seem to have no cap and do not even need pedal assist. Just pull the grip on the handlebar and you accelerate. In Europe we call those e-mopeds. But for some reason here it's an ebike.

    Edit: to add, I agree. Cars should definitely have caps based on jurisdiction. But I assume it will be bypassed just like other things, and this guy would probably have been among the ones to get their hands on one of those vehicles anyway.

  • Multiplayer shooters should get "pure" healers that can't shoot
  • I still think it's okay to have high skill ceiling classes though. It's one reason dota2 Invoker was so popular for example.

    They could probably add one healer in a moba or team shooter that has a complicated but rewarding game play.

  • Multiplayer shooters should get "pure" healers that can't shoot
  • Disagree. Both Ragnarok Online pvp and World of Warcraft arena had tank mage builds (discipline priest and priest/high priest) and they were incredibly fun to play. Especially early-ish discipline pvp was all about proactive absorption and then removing as many buffs and burning mana of the enemy.

    Then of course blizzard did their usual blizzard shit.

  • Dell Sales team told to return to office 5 days a week
  • I just have slack running on my phone. If I'm at IKEA instead of my computer and someone wants something, I'll just tell them I'll take a look at it after lunch. If I'm out biking in the afternoon, I just tell them I'll take a look at it tomorrow morning.

    If someone wants something really urgently, I'll tell them to give me thirty minutes. Thirty minutes later I'll tell them that the results are inconclusive and this will need more time, for which I have scheduled a block for tomorrow.

  • Same in Hungary. Tourists are charged out the wazoo for it, especially the two or three most well known and picturesque ones, but locals can get a prescription for discounted entry from their doctors by just saying "oh, my rheuma is acting up".

  • Steam does the opposite of forcing Arbitration on its users
  • You don't need a lawyer in small claims. Can also go with a paralegal or just represent yourself.

    But that's not why the small claims is backlogged anyway. I have actually no idea why it's backlogged. I've been a defendant in a small claims court case since 2021 and nothing has progressed except for an arbitration hearing in 2022.

    Edit: 2020s, not early 2000s. Fuck, it hasn't been twenty years yet.
