  • operating temperatures down to -15C

    I would personally triple check to make sure this means what you think it means.

    Assuming it does, you should be in the clear. Cutting the power when it gets colder is probably not necessary since the freezer won’t have any reason to run, but it might be a worthwhile precaution anyway. If for some reason the compressor does try to run with frozen oil, it might damage itself or try to draw too much power and blow a breaker (or start a fire if your wiring is sketchy). Better to be on the safe side.

    safer for all parties

    If you were a pedestrian who had to walk through one of those designs, I guarantee you would not feel very safe.

    The problem with traffic engineering is that it’s solely concerned with vehicle traffic. Making roads safer and easier to drive on for cars actively makes them worse for everyone outside a car.





  • What’s with conservative premiers elbowing their way into municipal affairs recently? Weren’t they the ones complaining about government overreach a while ago?

    Anyway, I’m picturing Doug Ford busting into the provincial treasury in a car-brain fueled rage, and trying to explain that yes, he really needs $100 billion, no it’s not for drugs cars this time, it’s for economic growth
