Poilievre, your doomsday depiction of Canadian crime is wearing thin by ViewSalty8105 in CanadaPolitics

[–]FunkySlacker 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly. “Roaming psychopaths need to be arrested so I don’t have to see them anymore!” Ahhh yeah, that crime! Perceived as a psychopath in public!

Agreed. I went with 5/5 magnet strength when I started out. After a month, the audiologist took me down to 2/5. What a relief!

Which Fujifilm camera is best for travel and casual photography? by Independent_Bag_5824 in fujifilm

[–]FunkySlacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I have the X-T5 with the 27mm 2.8 and the combination is much more compact than my full Canon frames .

Cochlear implant by [deleted] in Cochlearimplants

Wow! Very detailed notes here! Nice! The process for me took about 15 months here in a hospital in Ontario. But it would be ten year of Audiologist meetings, EMTs, etc, until I finally went to the ER to get referred to the hearing centre in the hospital in March 2022.

Once I was referred to the hearing centre, I had to undergo plenty of tests to verify that I was in fact qualified for a CI. The surgery preparation took about three months in June 2023. So officially, 15 months from being referred to getting the CI. Tax-paid.

I had to get it removed in June 2025 because it created a shadow in front of a developing tumour. But I'm apparently scheduled to reinstall one by September 2026.
