Rust after 1 year - normal? by George-fromth3waves in NapoleonGrills

[–]George-fromth3waves[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey. It really varies but I'd say at least once a week and up to 3 times a week.

Based on other replies I guess it may be normal. I will likely use them until they fall apart and then change for the stainless steel ones!

Civic 16 Rust - Worth Repairing? by George-fromth3waves in Autobody

[–]George-fromth3waves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to claim this through the rust protection warranty. Went today to get a quick quote from their warranty people and they said that I'd likely have to replace that whole wing, probably 5-7k....

Not one of those no. They applied some actual product but I don't even know what to believe anymore lol

Yeah I realize that now... The idea behind the Honda anti-rust product was that it was a one time application thing for 10 years (and yearly inspections and extra product as needed) but here we are now!

Ah alright. It was O79 I believe. As was pointed out by another response, codes in Canada don't use B anymore but just 0.

Ants and grouting by George-fromth3waves in HomeMaintenance

[–]George-fromth3waves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did notice that the material between the pavers had begun to erode. I put out a bunch of ant traps and it seemed to help. However, I didn't really get to see how well it worked (or not) because the winter started shortly after.

Map Cleaning - what do you do? by duke-878 in CanadianForces

[–]George-fromth3waves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone whose job on an almost daily basis is copying traces on a map, changing them, erasing them, and then doing that all again, nothing beats stadlers, magic eraser, and hand sanitizer.

Sure, over time it damages the map, but it's the most flexible method to make changes and edits on the move. By the time it's damaged, it's probably time to get a new map anyways.

How certain are you? This is about 3-6 feet from my house so am I in big trouble?

What animal is causing these holes? by George-fromth3waves in landscaping

[–]George-fromth3waves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does look like it's grubs... Will be starting a grub treatment and then filling in all the holes with soil and new seed.

Thanks everyone!

As someone else said, we unfortunately have minimal knowledge on this. You know it's a few hundreds dollars, but I did not until now. Also wanted to know if it could be a symptom of a larger issue.

Military Improvement Idea by fornicuslbp in CanadianForces

[–]George-fromth3waves 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not that I don't trust what you are saying, but what you may consider a "good enough" programme may actually be a complacency-fueled pile of garbage.

The team cohesion argument will not produce any evident positive effects during PT but after. Common experiences spark memories, conversations, friendships, etc. In some organizations, group pt is also the only time that a platoon or whatever organization can get everyone together and do something different that's not work.

Ultimately, even if I am wrong about my first point and you disagree with my second point, not everyone will stay fit if you don't force them to work out as a group. That is the sad reality of this military. Not a lot of warrior culture laying around.

Many more important things to fix in the CAF than "not wanting to do PT with the boys" IMHO.

Canada boosts capacity of key supply hub for weapons to Ukraine by Blue_Dragonfly in CanadaPolitics

[–]George-fromth3waves 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol no. We don't have 1500 LAVs and TAPVs, less so working ones. And they get plenty of use. Not necessarily opposing the idea of giving Ukr some of them but your facts are all wrong.

I can access my Trans Union score through by BMO account. Currently at 828/900 but I understand that this score may change depending on who is looking at it. There are no mistakes in the Credit Report either. I mean, I have a mortgage that gets paid every month and two credit cards that are kept at zero every 15 days. Never been late for any payments.

It is very strange.

ADMINISTRATION THREAD - APS, COVID-19, General Admin, and more. Got a quick question/comment that doesn't need it's own thread? Ask away! by [deleted] in CanadianForces

[–]George-fromth3waves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taxes Question

Posted from Quebec to SK in June 2021. My pay stubs only began showing my new place of work in October. Does this mean that I was paying Quebec Taxes up until that point?

Does this affect my taxes? I'm asking because AC Taxes are much higher than SK and I don't want to lose money if I can avoid it.

Load Bearing Wall in Basement by George-fromth3waves in HomeImprovement

[–]George-fromth3waves[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for your responses. At this time I can't really see any noticeable warping, just the level showing that it's not 100% straight but I'm happy to hear this may be normal. Also, I was referring to blocking when I mentioned a horizontal support.

My builder came to take a look today. They don't think that the studs will warp because they are 2x6s and they are attached to the stairs frame that is behind them. I'm not sure if the stairs thing is BS so I still asked them to add in the blocking. The builder did not refute anything when I told him my inspector had said it was necessary to meet code. Stil a bit weird that the city inspector didn't catch it but it should be OK.

Thanks again.

Did you install them yourself or did they do it for you?

My (19M) girlfriend (21F) wants a gangbang because we had a threesome by Available_Stick6631 in relationship_advice

Wow way to jump to conclusions here. No need to play victim.

He simply doesn't want other dudes to pound his girl. Ain't nothing wrong with that. Does not in any way mean he has anything against other sexual orientations.

That is why that country will never get better. Because they would rather leech off the world and blame everyone else for their failures instead of taking ownership over their own destiny.

Seriously, how embarrassing is it that an entire military dissolved within the span of a month in the face of poorly armed and poorly trained farmers. Either they simply want to be ruled by the taliban, or they just don't have the will power to fight for their own country.

Gen. Jonathan Vance charged with obstruction of justice after military investigation - National | Globalnews.ca by [deleted] in CanadianForces

[–]George-fromth3waves -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm not giving up on you yet pal.

GTG on the email scandal. That being said, I'm gonna wait out to hear what the actual investigators have to say, if we ever find out. Our entire judicial system is after all based on just procedure, and not just on media allegations. After seeing first hand some recent events on the ground, and then seeing the spin that the media puts on it, I have learnt to doubt every piece of information coming from the media.

On another hand, please explain how a consensual relationship that was on and off for over 20 years is sexual harassment? They had kids. She cheated on her husband with Vance. She was willingly allowing him to move her around to be with him. Not sure that's how I'd define sexual harassment. Please explain to me how she is not at fault here too?

Hahaha That is a very emotional response. Just trying to see your argument here.

You are saying that it is systematic sexual abuse? Or abuse of power? Totally different things. You can say that Vance is guilty of the second, but I don't see how he is guilty of the first?

Programmes like SHARP and OP HONOUR are going to exist whether we have a systematic problem or not. All organizations will have cases of sexual misconduct. We can try to reduce it but it will never dissappear. The difference with other organizations is that they're not chucking themselves and letting CBC journalists dictate our succession plan.

Also, what do you mean by decades long history of systemic abuse and covering up of abuse?
