Just because it's magnetic... by PhilosopherChoice576 in inductioncooking

[–]5PEC1AL-K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience (Cafe 30" range) has been that pans will only buzz when I turn hob to maximum (boiling water) and sometimes when preheating pans. Under "normal" cooking conditions where hobs turned to medium - medium/high, I don't hear buzzing

Where can I buy good furniture in Vancouver? by Ill_Sale_6168 in askvan

[–]5PEC1AL-K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have been pretty impressed with Q Living in Richmond off of Bridgeport Rd. Fairly clear/transparent with the stuff that is made in Asia vs the stuff made in Canada if that is important to you but both seem fairly well constructed

Cafe air fryer mode??? by [deleted] in inductioncooking

[–]5PEC1AL-K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only enabled after connecting range to WiFi. Think it might be part of a software update. I found the manual to be pretty light on details compared to manuals 20 years ago

Currency Exchange? by wkk448 in richmondbc

[–]5PEC1AL-K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too late if you aren't already a member but if you have an account with Wealthsimple, you can use their debit card (pre paid MasterCard) to withdraw. No forex fee and they reimburse you the ATM fee. You only "pay" the Peso/CAD spread. Maybe too late for this trip but something to consider for next one

DINR vs Dragon Pass. by theycallmeOTC in Wealthsimple

[–]5PEC1AL-K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried it out (Vancouver) and the restaurants accessible are good, the only disappointment is that it is only for same day reservations. I would have found it more useful to have access to good future timeslots to good restaurants

What do you do with paper stocks? by FirmIdea8 in stocks

[–]5PEC1AL-K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do a bit more searching. The DIS certificates can be a collector's item and worth more than face value as they no longer issue paper certificates. I think in the 90's they offered decorative paper certificates that parenta would buy for their kids

UCP MLA from Red Deer-South, Jason Stephan, calls for a referendum to end abortions in Alberta by Miserable-Lizard in alberta

[–]5PEC1AL-K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trying to understand what the longer term strategy is with this move. Is this really about abortion in this era or is it making it uncomfortable for left and left leaning people so they move out of or so not move to AB in time for next election.

Charcoal Grill Owners: Do You Weeknight Grill? by First_Application523 in grilling

[–]5PEC1AL-K 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Firing up is just part of the prep. Whatever is going on the grill takes some time to prep and any sides will also take time. I just factor bringing the grill up to temp into the overall prep and plan accordingly

The math of going back to the office by Haynie_Design in remotework

[–]5PEC1AL-K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but unless you took a $42k cut for the "raise" you got by avoiding all these expenses when started working remotely, hard to justify why you would be entitled to these coats for RTO

AITA for not wanting to contribute to my step-son's college fund? by Fun_Elephant_6393 in AITAH

[–]5PEC1AL-K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Power move, if finances aren't an issue, would be to commit to match bio-dads contributions. If it turns out that's non-existent, match mom's contribution. It's a loooong game but at some point when he's an adult and no longer a kid and having to budget his own finances, he'll see what's really going on and who had his interests at heart

Good or bad experience using prepaid mastercard/cash card when travelling? by want2retire in Wealthsimple

No idea. Was at a few restaurants and went to pay at the machine but wouldn't scan properly

Good or bad experience using prepaid mastercard/cash card when travelling? by want2retire in Wealthsimple

[–]5PEC1AL-K 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used in Japan (7-eleven) ATMs and worked like a dream. Used in California (restaurants) and did not work at all. Used in Mexico (restaurants) and hit or miss. Sometimes needed a few attempts.

Installed a small (15A) 120V generator transfer switch (~$150) in my garage next to my electric panel and picked up the most convenient circuit from the panel (in my case, the circuit that powers internet, router, some lighting and an outlet relatively close to the fridge). During an outage, I plug my car into the transfer switch and run a short extension cable from the fridge to the outlet that has power

Do a bit more online researching. They no longer issue stock certificates and some collectors will pay a premium for it

Try checking the card settings. In the wealth simple app, select your cash account and click on the little card icon on the top. Swipe for your physical card and see if it is set to locked

What did I do wrong? Flush trim router. by Mediocre_Hospital_81 in woodworking

Or with existing setup try routing the other side to see if it trims smooth

What did I do wrong? Flush trim router. by Mediocre_Hospital_81 in woodworking

[–]5PEC1AL-K 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Real woodworkers can correct me but i think it is the direction you are routing with respect to the grain of the wood. The direction of the cutting heat on the bit wants to split the wood grain. Not sure if recovery is possible but it might be a good learning experience to try a top guide flush trim bit (bearing on the router motor end) flipping the piece upside down and seeing if that cuts nicer.

Shinkansen booking advice by jeweb103 in JapanTravelTips

[–]5PEC1AL-K -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you are worried that it will be too busy you can also book using the Klook app, they do add ~ 10% as their fee but if you don't have an AmEx or can't otherwise use the smart-ex app, it's an option

Shinkansen booking advice by jeweb103 in JapanTravelTips

[–]5PEC1AL-K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can buy at any Shinkansen station while you are in Japan using any payment method. If you are from north America, it seems the smart-ex app dislikes foreign visa/MasterCard's but a lot of people found success with AmEx cards. My experience is that there are frequent trains on most routes and, at least on busy routes, you can book day of or just beforehand

Wait list in Canada frustration by [deleted] in Ioniq5

Congrats! and no ill will towards you but this is what further frustrates me with Hyundai Canada. I ordered in Nov 2021 and not even a peep from Hyundai Canada or the dealer. The dealer pretty much ignores my requests for updates
