In Ontario annual cost of living increases for healthcare workers have been 2.5-3% per year. This year it was just announced that they will be only 1.5%. With inflation at 2% this means that most healthcare workers are getting their pay cut this year. Liberals and Conservatives alike hate workers.

If this offseason does not cause the Kraken to commit to a youth movement fans need to drag Jerry Bruckheimer and the whole FO through the streets. Building through FAs and 30-something deadline acquisitions is outdated thinking. It's not a rebuild to let the kids play. It's their only option.

"DON'T DO THIS!"

I see what the soldiers are doing with the saws and whatnot, but did you guys have any more effective ideas? Like I obviously in no way condone your hooligan ways, but just wanted to say that cut poles are the easiest thing to fix.

If I was a Flock maintenance tech id be absolutely pissed if someone drilled a hole in the aluminum poles and squirted a bunch of the works toilet cleaner in there because it eats, degrades and essentially boils aluminum. Also a horrible combination for electronics is brake fluid and a industrial degreaser like purple power, one corrodes metal and the other eats the plastics.

So I just came here to let the degenerates know that ill be pissed if they get 2 squirt bottles, a drill and maybe a funnel and do this because the chemicals would leech throughout the entire line so the good guys would have to replace EVERYTHING instead of just take 3 mins to splice a cut wire back together.

Chemical warfare in electronics is an absolute disaster compared to physical destruction. Definitely don't hurt these cameras that are protecting our lives, but if you do Id rather you just cleanly cut them instead of destroying everything with chemicals.

One looks more dramatic, the other is absolute destruction... stick with just the appearance if you need to, dont actually destroy them.

DONT DO THIS!
