How's the finishing? I love how thin the Combat Sub is for a diver, but have been leery about current Glycine because of the Invicta ownership.

Reminds me a bit of a fast-forward version of the GM bloat that came to a head in the late '00s. Pontiac, Chevrolet, Buick, Saturn, GMC, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, and Hummer, all at various points selling largely identical cars with different cabins and bodies. Each tried desperately to have a...

In looking this up, there was some discussion about making it optional as part of a 'cost saving' measure, but I don't think it was ever approved. As someone else pointed out, with the Ontario Insurance Cartels in charge, making it optional would simply mean removing it from existing rates at...

Ah, the two year cap is fine print I missed. Definitely makes it less compelling. Would cap the payout value at $62,400, which could be covered by other means in a pinch. That said, the above RBC coverage is paid per month, not week. The highest coverage they offer is $1500/mo, or about...

I'm in the market to swap insurance yet again, and am comparing quotes for my Moto Guzzi (which, in the grand tradition of Ontario insurance being inexplicable, is marginally more expensive to cover than my Tuono). One thing I see is the base income replacement coverage is a hilariously low...

The third guy is definitely an unusual choice, have seen many videos of him squealing at trains with a weird 360 camera on that distorts his face. I hope they try to carry on in the Throttle House style rather than just copy the Top Gear / Grand Tour template. Over the years, those shows...

Ticks two of my classified sale pet peeves: uncropped phone screenshots and reusing the dealer pics from when you bought the bike. If you can't be arsed to take and post up-to-date photos, it'd better be a heck of a deal...

So tempting but so Markham...

I swore off the NHL after watching the Canucks go out against the Bruins in 2011. I'm not even a Canucks fan, but I was a fan of that Sedin-led edition of the Canucks team who dominated the regular season with gorgeous passing hockey. Then the playoffs roll around, and same as every year, the...

Don't forget Bologna winning the Coppa Italia and a DFB-Pokal final between minnows Arminia Bielefeld and the faded glory of Stuttgart. The Champions League final will also have intrigue, whether it's the aging underdogs of Inter or the fresh-faced and moneyed PSG winning in their first year...

Oh, cool. That Post Vintage Formula 1 class is exactly what I was talking about. Superbike racing in the golden age. Curious what the class turnout will be...

Did they update it? I thought they capped it at 1997, no 996, no FI GSXR, no RC51, etc. Kawasaki never injected the ZX-7R, so it was eligible all years the last I checked.

Can't you use the Sportsnet or CBC app if you log in with your TV cable account?

A neighbour races every year, have gone to cheer him on a couple times. Any VRRA event is worth a visit, as there's always lots and lots of track action and the range of bikes is impressive. Pits are always full of cool stuff to admire, and it's a very friendly vibe. As someone whose nostalgia...

Any Leafs fans thinking you can't break a long-held duck, look to England for inspiration. Crystal Palace won the FA Cup today. It's their first top level trophy in 120 years of existence. Or over in Italy, where Bologna won their first trophy in over 50 years last weekend. Owned by Canadian...

I'm curious, considering most fridges are a fairly standard size (e.g. counter depth, standard depth), what was it that LG offered that the others didn't? I instinctively stay away from added features in fridges, as they just add to the list of bits that can fail. The most reliable fridge is...

Congrats, MM! If my folks are any indication, it's lots of fun and you can hand them back when it's not!

It's the same as a phone (capacitive, I think?), and needs treated gloves or gloves with conductive finger tips included. I've experimented with the liquid you soak into leather, but it wears off and need constant reapplication. I've heard good things about conductive thread being sewn into a...

Oof. They might make decent phones and TV's, but they mostly make absolute junk appliances. One thing I've learned over the past 10 years of buying houses that came with with Korean appliances, it's that they all fail sooner than later, and if a repair is possible (it wasn't on one Samsung...
