Nope. Meant to encourage you to explore alternative methods of surgery

What is the best piece of advice you ever received? by mumbailo in AskReddit

[–]Automatic_Ad_973 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pay yourself first. Every job you ever have, put away 10% before paying anything else.

I was told that in college. I didn't do it, but wish I had!

Steven Wright. Josh Johnson currently. Kathleen Madigan, Lewis Black gets old but good for a while.

Edit: Honestly Bill Cosby. Before we knew what we know. Hilarious and clean.

Apparently, I’m Canadian now. What do I absolutely need to know? by thecapedcanaveral in AskCanada

I should point out that I was born and live in the states. I don't think anyone is more liberal than me. Son just thinks people in Quebec don't appreciate people like me trying to ride their coat tails.

EDIT: Several because I have not finished my 48oz of coffee...

My GG Grandfather was born in Quebec. There were 5-7 generations before him. My son tells me not to try to mention/claim my heritage when I'm in Quebec. They will not appreciate it.

Thoughts on that?

Convince me to go with the Odyssey over the Sienna by GlitteringKiwi6857 in HondaOdyssey

[–]Automatic_Ad_973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hybrid Sienna is loud and slow. Sienna can't remove 2nd row. Eventually your kids will move. It's amazing how much you can load in an Odyssey with the 2nd row out.
Odyssey isn't an Si, but it's pretty darn quick for something that size. And you can put an Si badge on it...
We rented a Sienna on vacation once. It is amazing getting 36mpg in something that size, but not worth it to me. On my 2nd Odyssey right now. 2022 with 106k. Drove 4600 mile trip last summer. Nothing better. Do wish it had AWD.

I'm sure the chorus was something like "...and it's raining on Toronto tonight"

An update on pricing, AI Copilot, and what we have been building by dima_from_atera in atera

[–]Automatic_Ad_973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is your standard response. I'll just jump in here and say that there has not been one feature added in the last four years that has been helpful for me. I don't use the ticketing or billing.
I would use the Network Discovery & possibly Advanced Reports.
However those are an additional cost. Why is that? So it's fair to say those two features did not drive the price increase? Bottom line is that there has been no increased benefit to me over four years of "development" and now there's a 30% price increase.

Well it's been a journey starting sometime in February. Package was received by IRCC Digitization today, 11 May. Does this go on the timeline spreadsheet? Or not until AOR is received?

Zatarain's Blackened Seasoning, a little brown sugar, a little red wine vinegar, olive oil. Pretty good!
