1. Where in town sells slushies, sometimes to clean machines?

Original English title:Anywhere in town that sells slushies that actually cleans out their machines sometimes?

Post content summary:Strange question, but I've been craving a slushie for the first time in a long while, and I know from previous work experience and delivering to corner stores across the province that these machines aren't cleaned as well as they used to be. I'm wondering if anyone can shout out some stores that have clean machines.

Weird question, but I am craving a slushie for the first time in a long time but I know from previous work experience and delivering to corner stores all over the province that these machines are not cleaned like ever. I am wondering if anyone can shout out some stores that have clean-ish machines.

Featured comments:

• Harvey's or Dairy Queen have good slushies
  EN: harveys or dairy queen have good slushies
• I just assume they clean more regularly than random stores or gas stations, but I can't be 100% sure
  EN: im just assuming they get cleaned more regularly than a random store or gas station but i cant be 100% sure
• If you're really craving one, City Air has ice, and I believe it's cleaned regularly since they have different flavors
  EN: Urban air sells icees if you’re craving them specifically and I believe it’s cleaned regularly as they have rotating flavours
• Might as well check out their park adventure while you're there!

2. Sudbury's WiFi is stuck in prehistoric times

Original English title:Wifi in Sudbury stuck in prehistoric ages

Post content summary:I haven't lived in Sudbury for many years, but I finally moved back, and while looking for a place, I didn't even consider how outdated the internet infrastructure is. I guess most places have fiber internet now, and I've gotten used to living in a big city like Toronto. But even in another small city I used to live in, fiber was almost everywhere. Eastlink might be my only option. I've heard it used to be bad, but wondering if anyone has current experience.

Featured comments:

• Calling the internet WiFi is also a bit outdated =) but glad you have internet, my only option is Starlink where I live!
  EN: It’s a bit prehistoric to call Internet WiFi as well =) But be happy you have internet at all, my only option is Starlink where I live!
• Fiber to the home requires a lot of pre-planning when building buildings or subdivisions, and putting it in established areas often isn't super cost-effective. Unfortunately, a lot of older apartment buildings are running DSL or coax, with no intention of adding FTTH
  EN: Fibre-to-the-home requires a ton of either advance planning when a building or subdivision is being constructed, and is often not super cost effective to set up in established areas. A ton of older apartment complexes ar
• Yeah, I wish I had known that before, but I didn't even think it could be an issue
  EN: Yeah I wish I knew this before but it didn’t even cross my mind this might be a problem
• Bell fiber exists in some areas of town, but not all, and it's rare in the outskirts of more populated towns. I'm not the biggest fan of Bell's customer service or pricing, but if gaming or consistent and reliable internet is your top priority, theirs is superior. I have Eastlink where I moved, and their available speeds are the best, but it's been experiencing some form of packet loss that causes issues in online FPS and MOBA games
  EN: Bell fibe exists in certain areas of town, but not all, and is rare in the outskirts of town where many people live. I am not the biggest fan of Bell customer service or pricing, but their internet is superior if gaming

3. Interior door installation

Original English title:Interior Door Installation

Post content summary:Looking to install some interior slab doors. Got a quote from a company through Home Depot Local Pros, they quoted $650 per door. Not sure if that's the norm, I know it can be a tedious job, but I'm hoping to find someone more affordable. Any recommendations would be sent to me! Thanks.

Featured comments:

• Very typical, depending on the scope of work, I'm a carpenter in Sudbury and that's what I charge based on the number of doors. Sometimes new slabs don't fit properly in new frames, etc. There are a lot of unknowns for the person taking the job. Most jobs don't go smoothly

• You can do it yourself, but it'll take a long time and won't look great, or you can hire someone cheap, but it'll look terrible!
  EN: You can do it yourself but its gonna take forever and not look great, or you can have someone do it for cheap and its gonna look like sh!t
• Really? That's crazy. The frames are already there, just customizing length, hinges, and handles.
  EN: Really eh? That’s wild. The frame is already there, it’s customizing the length and the hinges and handle.
• Skilled labor isn't cheap, and cheap labor isn't skilled
  EN: Skilled labor ain't cheap and cheap labor ain't skilled

4. Ontario moving rail line to speed up Highway 69 widening

Original English title:Ontario moves rail line to speed Highway 69 widening

Post content summary:Ontario is moving a CN rail line to make way for Highway 69 widening, but the transportation minister didn't provide a timeline for when construction on the final 68 km of four-lane highway would start or finish.

English excerpt (for verification):
Ontario is moving a CN Rail line to clear the way for Highway 69 widening, but the transportation minister offered no timelines for when construction will begin or finish on the final 68 kilometres of two-laned highway.

Featured comments:

• Just a photo, that new rail bed has been there for years. The railway was never moved because the highway project stalled.
  EN: Just a photo op, that new rail bed has been there for years. Rail just never got moved because the highway project stalled.
• Yeah, I work for CN. They built the roadbed a long time ago, then everything stalled again. There are even two bridges on the new route that haven't been used for the future highway south of the existing bridge. Now the bed is overgrown and parts are washed out a bit, they'll have to redo a lot of work before laying track. I wouldn't be too surprised if CN does what they want at some point, whether the highway restarts or not, because they've already invested money in building it
  EN: Yeah I work for CN. They built the railbed ages ago and then everything came to a halt again. There are even two bridges over the new route that aren't used yet for the future highway to the south of the existing bridge.
• Yeah, it's too late this year, but in terms of resources, it's fully government-funded. One day, it might be mostly done by contractors.
  EN: Too late in the year yes but as far as resources is concerned it’s completely funded by the government. Will probably be done mostly by contractors, one day.
• Yeah, there is funding, but there's only so much extra machinery and personnel to do the available work, and they're almost all tied up in other projects and maintenance right now. Plus who knows what CP is doing on their side, they might also absorb some of the contractor overflow.
  EN: Yeah sure it's funded but there are only so many extra machines and men to do the work available, and they are pretty much all spoken for right now with other projects and maintenance. Plus who knows what CP is doing on

5. Sudbury is getting scarier

Original English title:Sudbury is getting scary

Post content summary:Am I the only one who thinks the crime/drug epidemic is out of control? All I hear is women constantly being followed/harassed in public. Mail/packages stolen. People's cars and homes broken into every day. Many parts of the city smell like urine. I know every city has this problem, but I've lived in many cities, and Sudbury is by far the worst.
