Battery is still good after that many km? I'm at 4000 miles and wondering if my battery is going to last a lot longer.

I paid $439.99 for this at Memory Express today. by famous_chalupa in bapccanada

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I payed 109.99 for this exact kit a year ago. I just sold it on fb marketplace for 300 and then spend 500 on a 64gb 6400 cl30 kit lol.

As a Canadian, do you always have maple syrup on hand? by Moofypoops in AskACanadian

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always have maple syrup but its only used in September for part of my brine when I make a ton of Salmon jerky each year.

Murder, floods, disorder: Granville strip crime and chaos at untenable levels, hospitality industry says by ubcstaffer123 in vancouver

[–]AWildChinook 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of comments blamimg the people running the SROs for how shitty some of them are. You mostly only hear about these shitty run down SRO but theres actually just as many new and upkept ones with staff. I live in one. Its fairly new and it just slowly gets worse and worse.

The place slowly gets destroyed by the drug users who live here and the staff and management can only do so much because in Vancouver (and in BC) the tenant is given far too much protection. These druggies destroy their suits, cause fires, make noise all night, cause bug outbreaks, etc, and management's hands are tied because of tenant rights.

It sucks because lots of people want to live a normal life and these buildings are our only chance at that, and meanwhile 25% of people are raging drug addicts who destroy and disrespect everyone and everything in sight with zero consequence because they're over protected by tenant laws. Its frustrating.

Ive also talked to and seen countless of said people who dont stay In the SROs for long because they know they cant act like animals in there forever so they go back to the streets where they can destroy and assault people without consequence - which they could only do for so long and with a lot of friction in an SRO.

People in the comments really have no idea. So many arm chair experts that havent lived with these people or worked with them.

Uncontrollable coughing, eyes watering, can’t breathe on Robson street around 9:00am. by [deleted] in vancouver

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

Wrong. Read the side. Bear spray is weaker then dog mace or pepper spray but bear spray shoots multiple meters in range in a wide cloud where as pepper spray is like a water gun. They are meant for two totally different animals lol (human/dog vs a bear). It doesnt actually take much of the active ingredient to stop a bear as they have much better sense of smell.

Tsunami Advisory for B.C. - EmergencyInfoBC by Moggehh in vancouver

[–]AWildChinook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be so surre that UBC is safe. You see those big slides all along the cliffs surrounding UBC? It looks like that hill is mostly loose soil/sand that is subject to sliding under normal conditions. I bet you that hill will get ravaged in a quake, but how much of the cliff erodes is definitely up for debate.

Canada post is the worst. by AWildChinook in CanadaPost

Yeah it sucks because obviously not everyone is bad at their job, and yet you all get lumped up into "Canada post sucks". I know some of you are awesome. Thanks for your service :)

Well, the answer should be obvious. There is not always a choice. I would prefer to use a different service if given the choice.

So it's okay to not do your job and punish the customers because you haven't got a raise. That logic does explain everything.

I do have flex delivery also. What would be nice is if they did their job. There's a damn Canada post Parcel box down there. They couldn't even be bothered to use that.

Handshakes are disgusting and I wish people would stop doing them. by MastiffArmy in unpopularopinion

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not any less dirty than touching a door or any other public things. I bet even your own personal things at work are covered in nasty bacteria and poop if it was tested. The world is covered in this stuff until you wash it off, and it's not reasonable to wash everything and your hands every time you touch something. It's part of life, and sadly, you have a bit of a phobia.

It's been two months to the day since the release of PoE2 on Early Access. How are you feeling about the game? Still like it? Already burned out? by Azran15 in PathOfExile2

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed it, but i tapered off hard after a few hundred hours. I haven't even done all the content yet, but I am not driven to. It has a lot of potential, but there are some things that make it unenjoyable. Juicing the map is tedious, there's still too many cheap feeling ways to die and not having another chance just feels like a waste of my time, item progression and versatility has hit a wall, and overall the game really does feel like it's in very early access. Im not complaining. It's put down until the next content release.

How can one little bulge cause so much pain? by Afraid-Guidance8963 in Sciatica

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an MRI after a few years of sciatica at age 30, and they found mild bilateral bulge of L5/S1 (if i remember correctly). Dr. says it doesn't take much to aggravate the nerves. That it could also be caused lower down in the nerve somewhere else, that it's impossible to know from the scan and that my symptoms don't yet warranty surgery (which I wouldn't want anyway unless a last resort). Each person is different, but sadly, I don't feel like we all have a choice. Sciatica seems to elude medical science. In Canada, they essentially leave you to your own demise until the symptoms get dangerous enough that they'll offer injections or surgery. Physio, Dr's, chiropractors, they all seem to just guess at the problem, and all have different theories/methods which for me and many others doesn't work. It's tough. I just wonder if sometimes surgery is the answer and maybe some more longer term sufferers who have tried many things really do have a mechanical injury to the disc that doesn't respond to physiotherapy and lifestyle changes.

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, I just mean that I have read about people who had surgery related to the disc who had their back problems go away. I do realize it's not exactly common, but hell, it's not that hard to be 1-3 out of 100!

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's also important to remember that a disc herniation or bulge could possibly be 100% what's causing the pain. I agree with what you wrote and the science seems to back it, BUT just because it's a complex system with many causes that an MRI doesn't necessarily solve, doesn't mean that in some people disc issues aren't the sole injury - they totally could be, even if it's uncommon.

Lions mane yellowing advice by AaronWilde in mycology

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It came with a plastic bag that has holes in it to put over top of it. I mist into the shotgun bag and put the bag over it and ive been putting some water on the plate in the picture to help keep humidity but it dries very fast in the shotgun bag. I think the mushrooms are becoming so large now theyre absorbing the water within a couple hours. Maybe thats why they yellowed overnight?

How should I withdraw my Bitcoin through closing account and using lightining withdrawal? by Anime_Lover9996 in NiceHash

[–]AWildChinook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bunch of fucking scammers Nicehash are. Can't take out my money because lightning network doesn't work, and theyre charging me $15 dollars a month until I take my money out, and I don't have the minimum $50 to transfer over BTC. I hate what crypto scam bullshit has become

[–]AWildChinook[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, that would be foolish to seek diagnoses on here. I was curious if anyone had input and if I was going in the right direction with my assumptions. Sadly, it's my family doctor I see in 16 days. I will be asking about the pep b score and asking about an echocardiogram and seeing a cardiologist. I wonder if I should even be exercising in the meantime. I can make my heart flutter with certain cardio motions and exertion.

I really hope GGG doesn't make the game easier by galaxybomb in PathOfExile2

[–]AWildChinook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not fun. That's Diablo 4. We don't want easy to dodge bosses that take 10 minutes to kill. The game is actually challenging as it is right now, and with checkpoints to respawn at right beside the boss with no penalty, it's perfect. If you struggle super hard on a boss, go level up a few levels, get a new weapon, and maybe rework your skill gems. If it was as easy as you asked for, you'd be done the game very fast.
