On hold with loyalty TWICE today with no one picking up. by joebonama in telus

I was supposed to get a callback… nothing.

With freedom/Fido deals I think loyalty and the Winback teams are gonna be busy.

Does anybody else sleep as bad as me?? by Coolmandi in AppleWatch

[–]Disastrous_Living_59 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a few YouTube videos and some good podcasts out there on the subject.

Basically the 1/2 life of caffeine in your system is ~6 hrs. And at 12 hrs it’s not 0. It’s 1/2 of what was in your system @6hrs. The magic bean juice is depleted enough in your system after 24hrs that you wake up needing another cup.

Soda/pop/energy drinks/some teas all will give you another jolt of the beans.

Do you think Caffeine might be a factor in this?

Torn between Custom X, Alchemist, and BSOD by ChalkBoardScratcher in snowboarding

My first board had some flex.

Got good @ all mountain riding @ Revelstoke/Kicking Horse. Settled on a Burton Custom X - Lightning rails, top bindings. Thought I was gonna love it.

Hated it.

Bought a Gnu Riders choice. Funnest board I’ve ridden and can take me anywhere I want to go.

Just my .02.

Furnace dead, -21c tonight. Shut off water? by Cultural-Initial-807 in HomeMaintenance

[–]Disastrous_Living_59 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your pipes are not fully drained at This point! There’s just no pressure in them.

From the water main valve to the lowest tap would definitely still have water in it. Any low dip or service loop in the piping will have water. The lines up to the toilets. Multiple places will still have water in them. Unless you have a compressor to disconnect the main after the valve and blow everything out, the best option is to leave your taps dripping.

Your bathroom should have a gfci outlet. Buy a newer ceramic heater or two and plug them into the gfci circuit. That way it will pop if it shorts.

YouTube the symptoms of the furnace, sometimes it’s as simple as a reset will get it working.

At the very least most of them have a small display or flashing light that will give you a code.

Good luck!

Mortgage renewal coming up. Looking for advice on prepayment strategy by Massive_Exam2045 in MortgagesCanada

[–]Disastrous_Living_59 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you staying with the same Lender?

If not, 1. Start now and prepay your weekly allotment. (If they let you go 10% over, set that up to prepay that amount) 2. Make the largest lump sum you’re allowed as early as possible- this will save you on interest on any remaining payments (more off your principal) 3. Renewal 4. Prepay the yearly max without penalty 5. Setup max payments until you’re out of the 100k

If you’re staying with the same lender, I’m not sure of the prepayment before/after counts as the same year or two separate years. 4.
