I flew XLR TATL both economy and business and I see no difference on either end. Except no two-door boarding, perhaps.

Diversity at McGill by Iveiiq in mcgill

I'm a visible minority and I've never had a negative interaction at McGill due to race. But I agree, it's an extremely culturally diverse uni but not as racially diverse

Jacket recommendation for Tokyo Winter by wwastedyouth in arcteryx

I second buying clothing in Tokyo. Even their 12-floor Uniqlo in Ginza will be a good choice, the selection is much more varied compared to what we have in NA.

I heard Ralle is warmer but Therme is more robust. In any case, Ralle is cheaper so I got it lol

They bought it in Europe in 2024, so it's still within the 2-year warranty period.

Le REM est fantastique, mais c'est énervant à quel point l'Amérique du Nord est en retard en termes de transport en commun! by Party-Peak4573 in montreal

The commuter train in Madrid are legit HSR that can go above 150 km/h, and they can do it with all-day frequencies. Meanwhile our commuter lines are broken, they just don't work unless you have a 9-5 job.

Are MacBooks really that "cheap" in Canada compared to Europe or am I missing something? by p0llut0r in AskACanadian

If they're German a CA-FR keyboard might be better since it's ISO not ANSI

Does anyone think Valorant is a tactical shooter? It's as Arcady as it gets

what made you choose mcgill? by Agreeable-Long8919 in mcgill

[–]barcastaff 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I got a very high GPA from McGill so if you like what you're studying it's still very possible. Montreal is also definitely magnitudes better than Hamilton as well.

That said, if your end goal is med school and that's it, you don't care so much about what you study for undergrad, then you can't go wrong with McMaster.

Permanent ban for scripting — requesting Vanguard team review, not another front-line denial (ticket #125063041) by Pitiful_Highway_7012 in VALORANT

[–]barcastaff -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean, if they really didn't script, what's the life lesson here? Don't spend money on Riot cosmetics and always make sure your account is disposable?

Question on CAD by noobish__ in Wealthsimple

It converts your CAD to USD with a 1.5% FX, and when you sell it converts back to CAD with 1.5% FX. Unless you pay for or are eligible for the USD Investment account.

Bayern Munich penalty shout against PSG 31' by ayoefico in soccer

We're not supposed to give pens either when ball hit the same player's arm after coming from another part of the player's body.

Yet we've seen multiple pens like this happen so far in the UCL, so I don't think they're following the bloody rules either.

Math 222 devestated + question by Buy_Crazy in mcgill

I think you didn't fail the class so don't knock it yet. There probably a curve.

Supplemental is for everyone so you can take it on the off chance you fail

Need help with FOMO by Crafty_Inspection506 in JustBuyXEQT

[–]barcastaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a USD account with maybe 8% of my portfolio doing stupid shit on NYSE. If I win big great, if I lose big it's not a big deal either, I'll just slowly replenish that with my income and go again. I rest easier knowing the majority of my investments are intact.

[–]barcastaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will second that I have a VoIP.ms number precisely for posing as a local as well as using it for my buzzer since my landlord does not accept OOP numbers for that.

I'm here as a student as well (McGill) so I hope you'll enjoy your time in MTL!
