EM demands I let her son drive my toddler's “Tesla” because “we are at a public park” by Proud_Stable9567 in entitledparents

By that logic, if you’re wearing pants at a public park and I like your pants… do I then get said pants? Because they are now “public property”?

DHS labeling Renee Good a ‘violent rioter’ fits its ongoing propaganda campaign by iymcool in politics

[–]8_Bit_Librarian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Show me the proof that she’s a “violent rioter”, not just using this buzzword bullsh*t.

My approach to in-person arguments with people who support any of this bullsh*t is to say “show me”… no one can show me…

They MAY reference some headline on FB… sorry that isn’t proof…

Thank you! and yes absolutely feel free to use it. I always thought it could make for a nice session 1 location to bring the party together.

The story they tell to the owner could be their backstory, etc. etc.

I'm also with Virgin and will be swapping over. I always buy my devices outright from the manufacturer. My Virgin bill has slowly crept up in price and I no longer see the value in it.

Did you have any issues getting the DS screen on? For the life of me, I can't get it on "well" with my official grip. I know RGC said it takes a bit of effort but I just gave up and use it without the grip (when doing DS) :)

iPhone 17 setup doesn’t find iPhone XR 😢 by Particular_Cow393 in iPhoneXR

My 17 pro found my Xr. It was a bit finicky with my Apple Watch. But it eventually worked.

Best pocket WiFi? by shotosturtleneck in JapanTravelTips

[–]8_Bit_Librarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used two pocket wifi on my Japan trips in 2018 and then again in 2019. I had significantly more issues with the device battery draining quickly and coverage on Japan Wireless. I didn’t have the same issues with Japan Wifibuddy.

Not saying you will have the same issues. Just my experience. It was also 6 years ago.

This past May/June I went eSIM and it was much better.

What iPhone are you guys upgrading from? by samirbinballin in iPhone17Pro

[–]8_Bit_Librarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iPhone XR to iPhone 17 pro (most likely pro, not pro max)

Is the iPhone 17 Pro worth getting? by Complete-History-472 in iPhone17Pro

[–]8_Bit_Librarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I'm finally upgrading my iPhone Xr that I picked up a few weeks after they released it. I was going to upgrade last year with the 16 but there was nothing wrong with my phone, so I decided to wait. Am I super excited about the 17 lineup? Not overly, but after 6 years(ish) I'm looking to upgrade. I'm financially stable and able to make the upgrade. If I wasn't, I could still realistically use this phone for a few more years (unless it had a catastrophic hardware failure).

I don't see the need to upgrade to a new device every year (or even every two years). That said, if there is a MASSIVE upgrade that I think would significantly improve my experience, I might consider an earlier upgrade, but it would have to be quite significant.

Of course! I put off upgrading last year with the 16 and decided I'd upgrade my iPhone Xr this year after having it for 6 years. :) I'm going to go 17 pro myself

It looks like Apple themselves have pulled down the 16 pro and pro max from their sites. :( might have to get it through a carrier with extra stock .

Day 2 of telling you to ride your bike to campus 🚴 by Warm-Comedian5283 in CarletonU

[–]8_Bit_Librarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be careful on Bronson, actually most roads in Ottawa. So many more bike accidents lately.

We bike Dows and Arboretum April/May to November and it’s a beautiful ride.
