As an english Quebecoise I am disappointed in the way english Canada acts towards Quebec. by Ririiiin canada

[–]TheKeg 9 points10 points ago

Good job on reinforcing the stereotype of the elitist Quebec attitude. This is the shit the rest of Canada hates. People spouting off that they're better than everyone else. It applies across the country to everyone.\

And upon reading the rest of your comments, you're simply an elitist asshole.

what are some similarities that our body's have with the universe (or earth)? by markgray109in AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 0 points1 point ago

The surface of the Earth is covered by about 70% water. It is by no means 70% water, according to wikipedia the actual mass the oceans contribute is about 0.023 percent of the Earth's total mass.

What's the best way to navigate around a platformer? [XNA] by CatLover99in gamedev

I'm not familiar with xna itself, but typically you update the view matrix to change where the camera is looking.

Or you could just move the player and have the camera follow the player

Quebec student protests turn increasingly violent; Molotov cocktails thrown,explosive devices and various criminal acts by Slappy_MC_Garglenutzin canada

[–]TheKeg 1 point2 points ago

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I honestly never heard of anything that gave me the right in BC to protest for post secondary tuition issues without my academic career being in question or having to re-pay tuition to make up what courses I failed while protesting.

And I believe the same applies to the rest of Canada outside Quebec

My mom, dad, and girlfriend all forgot today is my birthday. Reddit, what are your shitty birthday stories? by Montmorency222in AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 1 point2 points ago

I invited a bunch of people out for my birthday this year, I never expected them all to show up or for most to even be able to make it. People have lives and other priorities so it didn't bug me if they said they couldn't make it and let me know. Those that showed up, those are the people I feel like I can count on and and call real friends.

It may suck, but I at least know who my real friends are now.

Redditors with handicaps, do you ever want unsolicited help from strangers? by kaevesin AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 3 points4 points ago

I have muscular dystrophy and most really wouldn't even know unless I told them. If I am struggling with something odds are I would like some help and probably wouldn't refuse an offer for assistance. If I see someone struggling, visibly disabled or not I will offer assistance.

Doesn't matter if you're disabled or not to me. Having pride is stupid if you're incapable of handling the current situation you're in. It takes the bigger person to admit they need help than someone trying to act all tough due to something that is/was more than likely out of their control in the first place.

TL:DR; help fellow people regardless of disabilities

Can you think of a literature/classic rock inspired name for my sailboat? by namelesstooin AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 0 points1 point ago

Personally, more folk inspired but suited for a sailboat: The sound of silence (Simon & Garfunkel song)

Cannabis.ca mascot 'The Herb' kicked out of Blue Jays game, had ticket... by kramerheadin canada

[–]TheKeg 9 points10 points ago

2 big issues I see.

  1. Private property and as noarchy stated terms and conditions on the tickets more than likely allow them to kick someone out.
  2. The costume would take up 3 or 4 seats which is probably more the 'official' reason he was asked to leave. I'd be seriously pissed if he was sitting next to me such that I couldn't watch the game.

Also, they should send him out to Vancouver for the playoffs and get a photo op at the art gallery on the 20th with the green men

What stupid, obviously untrue "fact" do you keep hearing over and over? by eaterofdogin AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 0 points1 point ago

DMT is metabolized much faster. Smoking typically involves being down to normal in 1 hour. Consuming it orally requires an MAOI to prevent your digestive track from breaking down the chemical before it even has a chance to affect you

Any Canadian .Net Developers looking for work? by nanohawain jobs

[–]TheKeg 0 points1 point ago

I'll send in an application tomorrow.

Curious about the remote work. Would you have to live in the Calgary area and be able to come in once in awhile or something like I could remain living in BC and work remotely?

Tardis Live Wallpaper Beta by TheKegin doctorwho

[–]TheKeg[S] 0 points1 point ago

Thanks for the feedback. I was worried there would be performance problems with the multitude of phones out there for people to choose from.

There's a few tweaks and optimizations that can probably be made that I need to look into. I can't make many promises on how much extra work I will put into this project.

Can you help solve a dispute between my SO and I? The solution is now narrowed down to what Reddit thinks. by HavingAdisputeNowin AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 0 points1 point ago

Honestly neither of those cars is very old at all. 10 years is not old for a car. "VERY old" would be getting into pre ww2 era vehicles and in my mind would be used for pre ww1 era mostly.

Edit: ditch the jeep like others have said. needs repairs, but the lower mileage should help with that.

I've almost given up on most emulators due to not having a hardware keyboard on my phone. On screen controls just never seem responsive enough for most games.

I live in a dorm, and my RA thinks he's a real hot-shot prankster. What're some ways we as a floor can gang up and get him back? by fgoogain AskReddit

[–]TheKeg 1 point2 points ago

the RA's will have keys to access dorm rooms. if he's playing pranks, that's something he could get in shit for doing.

At least up where I am, an RA is expected to be mature and can't enter your dorm without just cause

HMV will be closing its stores across Canada by deernuggerin canada

[–]TheKeg 0 points1 point ago

I mentioned this once to a clerk and they said it was because each store had to order it's own stock. Places like best buy do massive bulk orders and then distribute them to their stores.

Blizzard laying off 600 by EMFKin gamernews

Ensembles last game was Halo Wars, not AoE3. And do realize that there are quite a few factors that were probably taken into account when the studio was closed down.

B.C. teachers seek approval for 8 day strike. Please find the middle ground for the common good. by cheeseicein vancouver

[–]TheKeg 2 points3 points ago

For teachers, we're talking elementary and high school teachers in regards to the contract dispute for the most part. University and College teachers get a fair bit more money. Some of my instructors at bcit were making over 100k, granted they were also program heads and had other responsibilities.

The claim about an average salary of 60k is vague. Does that include post secondary teachers as well as elementary and high school teachers? I am pretty sure most elementary and high school teachers make a fair bit below that 60k claim.

Also, summers off is a joke, teachers work stupid long hours during the school year. Not some 9-5 job, more like 7am-10pm for some. They deserve some time off in the summer, not to mention I know a few teachers that spend their summer trying to improve themselves and how to better teach the kids.
