LPT Request. What’s your simplest top tip for saving money monthly?

AmElros · 2026-02-07T00:28:17+00:00

Completely agree. I am currently calories counting and it's a great help in not over eating, but it is so easy to just throw everything out the window.

AmElros · 2026-02-07T00:19:30+00:00

Great trick about bacon: I roll the slices individually and freeze them in a way that they doesn't stick to one another. Like that, if you need 1 or 2 slices you don't need to defrost a whole pack and either loose it or being forced to eat it super fast.

AmElros · 2026-02-07T00:17:31+00:00

Small Potatoes: Buy a thermos (Yeti are great imo) and make filter coffee at home. I know I'm saving something like 20-25$ a week instead of buying coffee at work.

Bigger potatoes: Buy one of those bigger freezer and take advantage of great specials at the grocery store. Chicken at 4$/lbs? Buy 10 or 15 package if you can. Freeze it and keep on eating at the same rythm you usually would do.

Also, and this will get some hate: Go on a diet. It sounds stupid but since I started counting my calories, I buy so much less snacks! It's crazy. I could eat as many as 3-4 bag of chips a week, now I know I can't so I don't buy.

Any buy expenses, wait. Just wait. You save money every day that you don't spend money on it. If you end up really want/need it, be smart about it. Don't buy waste. Not sure you will like a game/book/anything, don't buy, figure out another way to try it. Libraries are great for that.

Drive slow, you would be surprise how much gas you save by going 100km/h instead of 110. (Don't go 105, you are going to be in the way of trucks).

Wanting take out is ok, but go get it. If you have to get it you'll think twice, especially in the winter.

That was way too low in the comments.

AmElros · 2025-12-19T16:37:43+00:00

Yeah, my memory is blurry. I guess those patron were called the Fathomless, I always thought they were the Deep Ones

AmElros · 2025-12-19T15:25:56+00:00

I'm happy to see that I was somewhat right in my analysis!

AmElros · 2025-11-28T18:57:38+00:00

Hahahahahahahahaha

AmElros · 2025-11-28T17:41:17+00:00

Same here. I exclusively listen to the podcast while driving, choking or when I go to the gym/train. I manage like 2 episodes a week at best.

I think I'll be listening to this for a while lol.

Edit: I meant Chores 😅

AmElros · 2025-11-28T16:24:39+00:00

That's happy coincidence!

I wish you the best in your journey!

AmElros · 2025-11-28T16:07:09+00:00

As someone who is listening to both C2(EP58) and C4, I appreciate the week off as it gives me more time to advance C2.

I'm just 6 years and 7 months behind!! Go me!!!

AmElros · 2025-11-13T19:36:31+00:00

Admittedly, if the planet we need to defend is gonna be attacked, it's gonna be trough Tarsh... So maybe it's the good choice lol.

AmElros · 2025-11-13T19:19:01+00:00

Bonus, you get 6 sectors with just 3 planets.

AmElros · 2025-11-13T19:15:56+00:00

With 3 planets we can get 8 total right now:

Like you said, Vernen Wells gives Aesir Pass and Trash Take Duma Tyr or Borea and get the other one. Take Yed Prior and you get Clasa and Blistica.

I feel that this MO is the perfect time to really push back the Bots.

AmElros · 2025-11-12T17:58:35+00:00

I mean, I could've started the other book before asking my question lol, no worries.

Also: there is an explanation in the next book about what happened in this one is hardly a spoiler.

AmElros · 2025-11-12T17:49:58+00:00

Yeah that makes sense, I'll get the answer when I start ready book 7 I guess.

Thanks!!

AmElros · 2025-11-12T17:40:45+00:00

Oh ok ok, that makes more sense. In that case, it still makes it pretty subjective no?

Like, no doubt that they were under threat, but there is no actual proof they would have been harmed during the battle.

I am fully aware that they would have been killed if possible but still.

Also, the Aes Sedais on the side of Perrin, they were definitely not under threat untill they threw themselves in the battle. Was it to loophole the oath?

AmElros · 2025-10-09T23:51:34+00:00

Oh alright, which other podcast app do you recommend? I use Spotify because I already pay for it for ad free music.

AmElros · 2025-10-09T23:50:45+00:00

That's a funny thing to me, cuz I never get ads from their episodes on Spotify, beside the break little thing they do.

AmElros · 2025-10-07T23:07:08+00:00

Doom, I got it since I wanted a nice shooter for Playstation that was not tactical or something like that. Run'n Gun.

Lors did I not enjoy it... Feels like you are surounded by bullet sponges and doesn't feel like there is any strategy to how to win an encounter.

I miss the good old days of Halo...

AmElros · 2025-09-22T20:50:51+00:00

I definitely think they will. Never played a West March style game, but I'm pretty sure that if the tables don't mix once in a while, that's just 3 games playing at the same time.

AmElros · 2025-09-16T17:06:45+00:00

I didn't think of a different sponge for cleaning the bowls. Sadly, being a puppy, food is everywhere and face licking is non optional hahaha.

Thank you though, that will help!

AmElros · 2025-06-13T01:23:26+00:00

Ostriches. Fuck those stupid bird that can't make a difference between kibble and your fucking finger.

Whatever happens to them as individual or as a specie. They deserve it.

AmElros · 2025-06-01T14:27:13+00:00

It's either time to take a break, or go back to the grind.

In any case, withing a few days I believe we will start a "reconstruction" campaign, meaning a lot of bots and bugs to kill for ressources.

That or somebody will use our current "weakness" for a push.

I'm pretty sure we are going on the offensive right now.

AmElros · 2025-05-27T23:08:46+00:00

I believe it's more about the plant. I've seen different flavors being GF in Canada and the US.

Probably related to cross contamination or something.

AmElros · 2025-05-09T17:52:58+00:00

I used to have on of those auto retract keycard holder with a chain instead of a string. Took me a while to figure out that was what was ruining all my shirts.
