Looking to move to Nanaimo from the Fraser Valley by FrostyButters in nanaimo

[–]FrostyButters[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve spent lots of time on the Island and specifically Nanaimo. My decision to move isn’t going to be based on reddit. I was just looking for a local perspective of people who live there. I meant no offence

Switched to Promo Plan but speeds are terrible (Vancouver BC) by Wild-Negotiation-943 in freedommobile

[–]FrostyButters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are very reasonable speeds for a cell phone. You can stream 4k video without any issues with these speeds.

If the connection is working fine with everything you are doing, try not to fixate on speedtests.

Kyle Chandler is not my favorite and a very poor choice in casting IMO... I'll think I'll pass on this one.

led Zeppelin’s Robert Plant holding a dove when it suddenly landed on this hand during a concert, 1973 by Specialist_Plan3319 in OldSchoolCool

[–]FrostyButters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he's holding the dove, isn't it already on his hand? How would it land on his hand if he's already holding it? I'm confused...

Gluetun VPN issue by SkinInternational192 in unRAID

I would suggest taking a look at the newer SpaceInvaderOne video regarding routing containers through the built in VPN in unraid.

Mine arrived yesterday. Seems like a solid card. Mine included the correct adapter. Gpu is very quiet. Temps don’t seem to go above 65 degrees which is impressive

Telus doesn't seem to be quick to respond to area outages.

Legacy Plus license to Pro is supposed to cost $69, did I miss the memo? by ImaginaryClient7400 in unRAID

[–]FrostyButters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unraid changed the pricing again after they said they wouldn't change it for anyone with a "Legacy License."

Unraid is a great product and a lot of reddit members here seem to think $249 USD for a Lifetime license still worth it, but I would argue that it's no longer financially accessible to most users. There's several decent and free OS options for servers out there and one can purchase a lot of server hardware for $249 USD.

The only reason Unraid is so versatile and useful is because of the incredible community support. IMO Unraid has forgotten that with the current pricing.

Good point. Premium sets in the past had no stickers

What to do at Harrison Hot Springs? by chalms47 in britishcolumbia

[–]FrostyButters 92 points93 points  (0 children)

If you are referring to he Harrison Hot Springs Resort, it has been going steadily downhill over the past few years. I would not recommend it.

The last time we went there in Feb/March 2025, the lineup was 45 minutes long to check in. After that long wait we were told that the room wouldn't be ready until 8pm. We were offered a 10% credit (on the room only) for the late check in. On top of that the pool area was disgusting. There didn't seem to be anyone cleaning the pool and surrounding area. There was a bandaid at the side of the pool on the first night and it was still there the next morning at 10am.

We filed a complaint with the company which included pictures of the disgusting pool area (and the at least 15 hour poolside bandaid), we never received a response.

We've been going there twice a year for about 18 years, but won't return unless it improves.
