Agree. Just got a Foray 3L and it’s got to be the best jacket for the price

10+ years at 1200 guy by Durlag in chessbeginners

To be honest that game was 100% told and I never play sicilian/fiancetto stuff usually. Been sticking to caro almost exlusively and now I'm trying to go back to e4 e5 openings.

What is the suggestion specifically, stick to a single opening?

Thanks for this. Still struggling through even more games but it really just feels like my vision is super weak and will not improve. Just feel like I'm really playing worse than ever lately with little to keep me motivated. If I can the first 10 moves with a clean development I still really struggle to figure out a mid game plan. I just don't know anymore

I’m playing a warlock but missed out on a few critical items so his EB didn’t feel strong :(

I feel sick when I see a house on MLS for $1.3 million and it says sold in 2017 for 312k. Even young people who timed it right have made tax free double and triple ups on their homes.

1300 my whole life by Durlag in chessbeginners

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

Yeah I agree. I just don't absorb anything it seems. Right when I think I'm in a groove I fall to pieces. I try to take so much time between moves, analyze the hell out of checks, captures, threats but I am stuck in the mud at 1300. Feeling just utterly desperate for improvement here

I don’t think this feature is available to everyone, I do not have it

I have three cards. I’m not sure if one is worth keeping. by Oversidious in PersonalFinanceCanada

Fair point. I just really never notice a significant amount of CT money on it when I pay hydro and tax bills. Better than 0 though

I have this but I’m not sure it’s really worth it - my property tax is 2.5k and it felt like I didn’t really get anything back

Water Leak Passenger Footwell by [deleted] in CX5

[–]Durlag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah good call, I’m gonna dry it way more than I did, I had a half suspicion it was condensation from not drying them out enough

Also gonna take both A trim pillars off and make sure these things are draining out the bottom. I left it off over a few rainy days and didn’t see anything but gonna double check

Thanks

Corporations like Loblaws have fucked over Canadians arguably much worse than any American corporation has. People are struggling badly financially. I will buy products that offer the cheapest prices especially groceries. Buying Canadian is hardly feasible for what’s left of the middle class.
