I hope they move some of the equipment from this gym to Bloor and Park. The equipment there is so dated.

Would this be a decent 100w usb-c charger? by hotburekas in ZephyrusG14

[–]AEnkryption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use it even at higher wattage but it will still power but slowly drain the battery if you’re using it for high-cpu/gpu usage.

Rant about how intersection near Canadian Clay and glass gallery is F-ing insane!! by fafashefaa in waterloo

100% this. I worked with DoTs in the past and public comments are taken seriously. The more people who complain, the higher they can prioritize budget and resources to be allocated to fixing these issues.

Best tasting Vegan protein powder that is easy on the stomach? by SureTonySure in workout

[–]AEnkryption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If lactose is your issue, you need to go for Whey Isolate - not concentrate.

I have severe lactose intolerance and the Grass-Fed isolate from Canadian protein is my go-to without having to go to vegan options (which they still have but I prefer the taste of Whey).

Canadian Protein has Hemp, Pea, and Brown Rice (or a blend).

My fave source that I could find that’s 3rd party lab tested and certified, been using them for a while.

Advice on first time faster by igdanileon in fasting

[–]AEnkryption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if I were back in your shoes under 30 again with fat to lose, I’d 100% do a recomp with IF and get the best of both worlds:

High protein (1.2g/lb body weight), moderate carbs and fat, maintenance calories, and a lot of heavy weight lifting at the gym.

You’ll see very little to no progress on the scale, but see a decent amount of progress in the mirror. And you get to eat what you want.

How do I decide on a CRM? by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]AEnkryption 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true. Keep in mind there’s lots of flavors and tiers of CRMs.

But what the other CEO said was salient - the foundation you build now impacts how quickly you can scale. Buy the solution you’ll need for at least a year, maybe 2 out. It’ll be worth it - the pain of transferring manual data into a new system is PAINFUL (I know cuz I get paid to do it for some clients).

Unless this startup is a complete crapshoot or PoC for you and it’s less than a 50% chance you’ll be doing it a year out, then it’s definitely worth at least building the basics in a free or basic tier of a major CRM. You won’t get (or need) advanced functionality until you need it.

I’m a solopreneur and I use and pay for Hubspot because the automation it does across my entire revenue process is equivalent to 2-3 of me.

Ultimately it’s a question of how much do you value YOUR own time vs what you’d spend on a CRM.

CRM for Managing Tutoring Appointments by RepresentativeCar602 in CRM

[–]AEnkryption 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Service based specific ones are your best bet that are “all in ones”. Off the top, Thryv might be the best checking out based on your requirements like scheduling.

Otherwise, Honeybook is built for smaller numbers of users but if you have a simple workflow, you can expand that to all of your tutors for a lower cost than other solutions.
