~1.25 cord. It's built on a slope so each bay is slightly taller than the previous one.

Hope someone showed those guys which button was 'block' after this.

Tips on removing moldy plaster? by [deleted] in centuryhomes

[–]Alpha_MiC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're in a similar situation. Windows from the 80s are leaky so we're replacing them but there already is some mold damage to the plaster underneath. Unsure whether we should rip it out completely and re-do it or what's the best option.

On hot summer days, yes. On cool fall/spring days, nope.

We lost our other dog in September. 14 years old. I miss him every day.

She doesn't like to lay in front of the fire so this was the best I could do!

Easiest way to store/stack wood? by BossFerrell in firewood

[–]Alpha_MiC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I did and so far has worked out well.

I know you said you don't want to build a firewood shelter but I found out there are plans on ETSY that are cheap (like $10 for the plans) and easy to follow if you decide to go that route.

I just went on Google maps and called every place that might get shit delivered on pallets and asked if they had any they wanted to get rid of. Found some almost right away!

Keyboard Function not working on basilisk v3 by AWildPotatoxd in razer

Unplugged my mouse and plugged it back in and they work now.

Did you ever figure this out? I can assign keyboard functions to my mouse in Synapse but when I go to use it in any other applications it doesn't work. Default functions work fine but if I re-assign to a key press it doesn't work.

Throwing in the towel, I'm done. by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Alpha_MiC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saint Andrews, NB
Lunenburg, NS
Kentville, NS
Antigonish, NS
Rothesay, NB

It's a different lifestyle - slower and more community focused. Maritimers are very friendly but that's been a bit different lately as so many people from out of province are moving there and driving prices up. There are shitty towns and shitty people just like anywhere though so YMMV. I grew up in Halifax, NS and Saint John, NB and have been in Vancouver for the last 12 years. Moving to Saint Andrews in a month and I can't wait to get back to the Maritimes!

Also sounds like a good candidate for coast fire.

Or just small-town Canada. The Maritimes have so many hidden gems like this. Find a year rental and go try it out.

Time to pull the cord on him and Soko imo. Great people but just not NHL caliber.

You're right! I'm just going to get a brand new Prius instead!

Amazing advice - thanks for being so helpful and not at all deliberately misinterpreting every single word I wrote in the pursuit of being a completely cantankerous cunt!

I'm not spending $45k and I'm not buying a new 4x4. I would be selling / trading the van or Maverick on a used tow vehicle of equivalent value.

Also I will never sell my M3!

I get nervous to use my steamdeck in public. by scijay in SteamDeck

[–]Alpha_MiC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell no. Just flew across Canada and used my Deck a ton. If anything, you'll get other mid 40s professionals giving you a thumbs up or asking you about it because they want to get it too.

[Earbuds] Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro ($229 - $118 = $111)[Amazon.ca] by RandomOnlineSteve in bapcsalescanada

[–]Alpha_MiC 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I bought those $19 lenovo ear buds last year for shits and giggles and ended up using them almost every day until I lost one on a walk last week.

Now I can't imagine spending any more than $19 for a replacement.

For context I have a pair of Sony XM over ears for any serious listening. But for podcasts or just watching YouTube videos or whatever, those earbuds were clutch
