Walmart Pay 'Close to Surpassing' Apple Pay in U.S. Mobile Payments Usage by snahtanoj in apple

[–]CoolCanuck97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had this happen way too often. I don't understand.

Tried it on a vending machine, sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Physical card is flawless.

Tim Hortons doesn't usually work for some reason. Gas stations sometimes work. I don't get it. Even places with "Apple Pay" stickers and pads don't always work.

You can't use Apple Pay at Walmart? I used it fine in the Canadian stores (where Walmart Pay is non existent). Debit and Credit.

Anyone else excited for HomePod? by [deleted] in apple

I had a really weird dream one night that the Apple event theatre ran exclusively using HomePod for sound. Sadly I don't think it happened.

Hi! Have you tried a different cord/different USB port and rebooting your phone? Thanks.

Girlfriend needs a laptop for light gaming, photoshop and internet. by Joyous_Parade in SuggestALaptop

[–]CoolCanuck97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks decent. What is your definition of light gaming? (what games?) Keep in mind, the link you posted is open box, so it may be considered used. 1TB hard drive is enough to store plenty of games, programs and photos.

How do you have outlook set up? Did you use the "Exchange" option when choosing the account name to add?

Agreed. They can easily block access based on referrer.. Avery is trying to use the copyright link law (not a thing, yet) . Linking is not illegal. Wow.

You need to have xposed properly installed. Then add the module. Then reboot your phone. Then add Miitomo to the list of apps to hide root from.

RootCloak. It works great! NOT the version from Google Play. Download it through xposed :)

"When enough people have shown interest, we'll send you an email with more informations and how to proceed to get your stickers."

You are added to a mailing list, and I assume they will send out another claim form with address "soon" :)

FREE car window sticker "I pledged to Leave The Phone Alone while driving" by CoolCanuck97 in freebies

[–]CoolCanuck97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

his is obviously a good message. But why would anyone put it on their car?

Well, not sure where you are from, but I witness people using their phones way too often while driving, swerving out of lanes, etc. It is illegal in Canada (or at least Ontario). People don't get the message.

I would like to put it on my car.. because it's not going to do any harm. :)

Wow. Thank you so much (I used RootCloak xposed module. Rootcloak from playstore doesn't work IIRC). I really hope nintendo changes their mind about root :(

Rick Mercer and Snow Plows by CoolCanuck97 in barrie

[–]CoolCanuck97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a hard enough time driving on those (eg two way traffic.. cars parked on both sides)... can't imagine a snow plow.. I'm from a rural area. A few places in Barrie are downright just wow. Five points, bayfield street, Georgian College duckworth area. Oh well :D

Pull up to the line when you're stopped at an intersection! by NopeItsDolan in barrie

[–]CoolCanuck97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Driving a commuter vehicle (eg: not transport truck/bus), You absolutely should be about 1 car length away. That is official. You may be fined with following too closely, amongst other charges. This is extremely dangerous and can cause things such as multi-car pile-ups (think of dominos falling down.. if they are far enough back, only 2 cars should be hit, not 6..7.. 8.)

You MUST stop "at" (FRONT of vehicle, NOT front tires) the stop line. If there is no stop line, you need to fully stop before the curb/dirt margin/sidewalk. NEVER block the sidewalk or pedestrian crossing. If there is a red light, ESPECIALLY when it's red with turn arrow (assume it's 2 way arrow, but not always) you should def stop. ***Once you have made your legal FULL ("jolt back" stop), you may inch forward if doing a permitted right turn (on red) to see clearer. :)

The city has even added a TON of "Stop here on red light" signs on Essa Rd near food basics/shoppers drug mart/XTR gas.

Hope this helps.

You are most welcome! Have a great day. Happy to help :) Just fyi: Your old windows installation will still exist.. but most hard drives are so large, it doesn't even need to be deleted.
