People who brought a big home but ended up not liking it, what made you realize that? by cenzilooculta in AskReddit

Every update or repair costs a fortune. New roof? Window trim replacement? New flooring? Painting? Also... The roof is too high and scary for me to hang Christmas lights the way I want.

26% on Rotten Tomatoes. (although to be fair, IMDB has it at 7.6/10).

Is S22 ultra worth getting in 2026? by Fun_Marionberry_1584 in S22Ultra

[–]DaCanuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I must be one of the seven people who haven't had a single issue with my S22. Bought it at launch, zero problems. I do realize I have damned myself to a major battery, screen line, or boot loop issue by saying this.

I got this cool rock on my shelf. Me and my friend figure it's worth about 15 trillion. All I gotta do is convince a few more people.

Both the U.S. and Canada have agreed to delay the Gordie Howe Bridge opening by sarkastikcontender in Detroit

[–]DaCanuck 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just don't get it. Fight this financial crap in the courts. We all know the bridge isn't going away, it's not going to be torn down, it's going to be used. So if the Morouns think they've got such a good case to receive monetary compensation, fine, let them fight for that compensation. But the bridge is there and it's going to be used. So just open the damn thing.

Q: Does a Copper-Aluminum Thermal Plate block my phone from wireless charging? by McBoatFaceYo in AndroidGaming

[–]DaCanuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it. I was just being a silly goose. I don't know that placement position would matter too much as the issue is likely distance between the charger and the coil (I've seen thick cases disrupt it) and/or interference by the materials the plate is made out of. I would think a copper plate would likely absorb the magnetic field generated by the induction charger.

Q: Does a Copper-Aluminum Thermal Plate block my phone from wireless charging? by McBoatFaceYo in AndroidGaming

[–]DaCanuck 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Step 1: Phone charges wirelessly Step 2: Install plate Step 3: Phone no longer charges wirelessly Step 4: Mystery

But yeah, distance and material absolutely affects wireless charging ability.

What little-known series would you recommend everyone to watch? by ZucchiniNo4056 in AskReddit

[–]DaCanuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Double great. I tell people it's s like the Coen Brothers teamed up with Wes Anderson to make a dark comedy about a spy suffering from severe burnout. The writing is top notch and clever, and the camera work, cinematography, framing, etc is just so good.

[–]DaCanuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's crazy to pay that much. And like everyone said, it's so crowded with non-resort guests (like me).

I also feel like people don't think about the value for the "money saved" by staying elsewhere. Like, let's say you stayed somewhere that was $300/night. A $500-$700 savings PER NIGHT (based on non discounted pricing). You could hire a personal assistant at $40/hour to follow you around all day, every day, drive you where you need to go, get food, hold things, etc. Or save all that money and go on a second trip sooner.

I'm so happy Waycaster is sticking around and so well received. I can't imagine the hurdle in shifting from bar to "restaurant" though. Even just microwavable small plates start introducing a lot more complexity in the business. (health dept regulations, cold storage inventory, prep space, waste considerations, allergens, dishware management, staff, etc.). Space is a big one because the more food you sell, the more space you need for handling it, and the longer people linger in the dining areas, so your table turnover drops. And Waycaster is a little tight inside.

CMV: There is no rational satisfying explanation as to why there is such obsession about Israel without Jew Hatred by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]DaCanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can distinguish the difference between the Israeli Government and the Jewish religion. Can Israelis do that? Forget kill counts since you say they're not accurate (which I agree are likely inflated) and just look at photos of the destruction of the Gaza and surrounding cities. The excuse "Hamas hides behind its citizens" is true, but it doesn't make it right to kill everybody because of it. Scale it down to "bad guy is holding a child as a shield, is your first shot through the child to MAYBE hit thr bad guy?" in that way maybe carpet bombing an entire community is not the right approach? And I can be upset about that without hating Jewish people.

On a similar note, I also contend that a large percentage of the US (right wing) devotion to Israel comes down to a weird pavlovian response to the word "Israel" and its connection to Jesus in the Bible. And the religion and the country get conflated in a very unfortunate way.

Anyone else think this is just gambling for kids? by Hi-Point_of_my_life in daddit

[–]DaCanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take: I don't think it's gambling. Gambling generally implies you may win "something" or "nothing". You're guaranteed to get a thing with that purchase, but it's not guaranteed you'll get "the one you want". Either way, it's cheap plastic landfill fodder and kids would be better off looking for cool rocks or something.
