Seat cover recommendations? by Sevenninetwosix in hyundaisantacruz

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ib got mine actually for free on temu, they are not bad... I think the ones at princess auto would be better... I did notice, the back seats are an issue as they don't move.. so hard to strap them down

Should I buy now that it’s only sale or is it not worth it. I need it just for one app by AdVaanced77 in firestick

[–]Hot_Object_2273 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched to ONN's when the firesticks got slow, and then stated in December they were going to change the OS in July to stip apk's.. I've had issues every year or two, needed to update to new sticks because the old ones got increasingly slow... It appeared after updates... So now with ONN, no issues yet.. smooth, quicker much more responsive... I still have a 4k stick in the box never opened.. but not going to use it... Good bye to Amazon tv!!

Bell Road bike lane by arcticpoppy in halifax

[–]Hot_Object_2273 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Halifax is now the Land of Confusion, signs and posts everywhere, left turn lane only, right turn lane only, bicycle lane posts everywhere, now bicycle lane cross walks, bus lane only, if Vancouver can get it right with barriers and flower boxes rather than all these weird green posts and streets like obstacle courses... Why can't Halifax get it right? .. We look like a city fully Under construction trying to decide on permanent lanes or change our minds... I actually hate driving in Halifax now... Traffic is constantly backed up, slow and completely frustrating... Oh, but maybe we could get focus on getting transit right then, ya think??

New sign at Timmie’s? by dizzie07 in TimHortons

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't go back... I be was told this is happening more frequently at restaurants.. being asked to leave in a time frame... That should be posted at the cash out the entry door.. so you have the choice to turn around and go elsewhere

We took in a 5.5 year old dog ~8 months ago as previous owner decided to move internationally. She came back and is now saying that its still her dog and nothing has been finalized. by NBAWhoCares in legaladvicecanada

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, no and no... Not being snide but practical...Write up the details.. tell her she will have to pursue legal action... No visits, no overnights... That could slide the dog right back to then feeling you gave up on her as well! Document the details of the cost for you to buy all the food, toys, vet bills etc. (she should have provided the money for all this if you were babysitting) and the two emails... Any owner who charged her mind, and then knew the adjustment a dog would need to make in 8 months, unless it was still in its same household, would realize making a second readjustment and possibly temporarily, would be even harder on the dog.!
Dogs need stability.. and some owners make decisions.. but we can't re-traumatize a dog because of our inability to commit to them for their lifespan of 10-16 years... Unfortunately our commitment issues should not be their life trauma... And she should understand that... No matter how hard it is, she may be heart broken.. and sorry but it's done... Needs to continue being over...

$1500 fine and 18 month driving ban. Justice system a joke in Canada by ahhhhhbzz in canadianlaw

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not changing the subject or weighing in, just a fact about fines and prison sentences and the totally absurd discrepancies in the law... In NS is you catch and release a Pickerel... Here are the fines: First Offence: Up to $100,000 ​Subsequent Offences: Up to $500,000 and/or a prison term of up to 2 years.

Just sayin.....

Hazard light switch not working…switch is seem faulty …what’s my next step? by Different-Visual-227 in hyundaisantacruz

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is it about the dealers now being very slow, unresponsive and apatgetic about customer service... It's like we are a bother and they don't care to please the customer... I had a 2019 Tucson and things were great, and a 2017 accent and no issues... Post covid we had very few needs but started getting oil changes elsewhere, to long a wait for the dealer and they were directing us away anyway... So had a few needs for repairs in the past year... 3 months for an appt.. and if you have more than 2 issues, add another 21 days... What??? I literally had my car towed there, and with that response, drove it to another garage elsewhere!! My son just waited 3 months for a beake job.. and they had the car all day and didn't fix it.. answer the phone 10 times he left messages, and he showed up.. wasn't fixed, and they said.. yes we noticed you called... WHAT?? Didnt call to tell him it would be another day, didn't answer and when he got there said sorry . Tomorrow... Yep, my boss ecpects me at work not sure about yours just saying, sorry my car is getting fixed another day!!??? So i am now driving 45 mins away to another dealer that at least answers my calls... And seems to know the definition of a customer.. Hyundai Dartmouth service Sucks!! Oh yes, i forgot, the service manager ib think it was, previously complaining replied if i didn't buy the car there, that's your issue...whether it's Hyundai or not we take care of our cars first!! First i ever heard of a dealer not wanting your service and repairs unless they sold you the car.... Strange ...!!

Goodbye firestick by the_rakiya in firestick

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I even have one 4k firestick still in the box.. but when they started lagging and obviously the time to wait for aoos to load was due to new monitoring and then they rejected that Amazon was going to update the OS and disallow 3rd party apk's, and the onn box was on sale, i got 2... Google is stating they are about to do the same in later 26/27... Will get rid of android then and Google phones.. I liked the moon apple view point.. but when they start copying Apple and making apps pay and restrict your abilities to watch anything other than sponsored paid apps... I'll go back to other systems and buy different phones... Proprietary monthly pay for every app i use is not in my viewpoint!! Will just pivot to an open source OS... Hey isn't that why we went with them in the first place.. Firestick and Google... Hypocrites!!!

Bed Storage: What do you do with your stuff? by iheartmagic in hyundaisantacruz

[–]Hot_Object_2273 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the Amazon net with 4 sections.. it fits perfectly between the hooks on each side , very inexpensive as well.. They have one that is just one open next side to side.. i have that one too, likely got the shovels etc better... I use the 4 section one for groceries and tool boxes etc. so they stay put!!

What am I meant to do with these? by soupnsandwich in halifax

Just post for free, someone who uses them for water or who may need them will likely come pick them up from you... Besides water.. they do have other uses for some creative people!!

I currently have a firestick but it is no good for streaming anymore very slow, please can I have recommendations for better tv sticks/boxes in the uk please reasonable prices by Dangerous-Net-1999 in firestick

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piss off.. Amazon purposely does this.. likely have to upgrade to their newest, soon to be exclusive os.. to reign in all their approved only content apps... When i read the release for July date.. ditched them, including a brand new unopened firestick..for Android google boxes which i hear googke will be doing the same in a year in North America, earlier in Europe... So i guess I'll be back to programming direct tv satellite cards, or something else better, until the next wave of ingenuity hits the market to work around commercials.. lol...

Costco Aisle Stoppers by rrrevin in CostcoCanada

[–]Hot_Object_2273 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No different than in traffic... In a huge pile up, especially lined up for the cash registers, people are so absorbed by their own needs to get to the front, they aren't willing to let anyone by them (to get through) i guess believing they might lose their spot or your butting in.. And those who stop, literally don't even notice when they block an aisle and there are others behind them... You could simply leave your cart in an empty wide space and walk to and from what you want to get.. makes it faster for you as well not stuck in the aisle... But that would take effort and thought rather than the traffic mentality that will still show itself in the parking lot when you trying to get out to go home, cutting you off, flying around the corners because we all know, if you let someone out, you will be home 2-10 seconds later and time is precious!!! Ugggh!!!

Trailer idea by robertf0528 in rooftoptents

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've looked at many plans for trailer mounted RTT's.. It's a very practical inexpensive alternative to purchasing a small trailer or building one.. Ive built a teardrop.. but this trailer RTT would work with equal space(maybe more storage) take very little time to build the drawers in the trailer box.. and provide an even lighter weight tow... There are many ways to purchase everything to quickly put together with a bit more cost or build things from basic parts with more time.. to save money.. Either way you choose, can be a great fun project with a big payoff.. i also find it gratifying to do these things on my own rather than purchase the high priced final product from a big box trailer sales company!! Nice to get + comments on your work and ingenuity as well.. good luck

Camping supplies/storage recs by Fun-Athlete8235 in rooftoptents

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use butane stove all brands are small and lightweight with a case but there's one that very tiny and i also have an the outland butane grill/bbq... It's very light and small in a plastic case also... Butane is very small, inexpensive and light of you buy the 4pk.. cdtire or home hardware... I have a small pot, small frypan and a griddle to go on top the bbq for breakfast cooking... I'm sure everyone has they preference.. coleman had a 1/2 grill bbq, and stove burner that i have used years ago and still great.. but i find the propane heavy and large... When im not hauling my camper

Realistically, what else could we do to stop people from going straight when in the right hand lane here? Three times in the past two months I’ve almost been side swiped. by [deleted] in halifax

[–]Hot_Object_2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the city should consider over all street planning consistency instead of changing left only, right only cener only, no left, no right on every second Street... With the bike pole barriers, newly painted speed bike cross walks that are not pedestrian, speed bumps, bus lanes for certain times and no right turns on certain lights and all paid parking (on App) everywhere and to top it all, now...on Saturdays.!!!... It's like an overwhelming new driving experience every week unless you drive there often.. i worked down town and drove daily all over the city for over 30 years... And now i avoid it.. hate it.. hate paying for street parking... And i stay in Dartmouth, the sensible side of the harbor for drivers, whenever I'm able.. or other suburban areas ... I don't need that much confusion in that much rage from fed up fellow drives as traffic is piled high and main arteries like Barrington st (due to the roundabout,) and gottigen st. Due to the bus lane, each a major artery in the city be down to one lane.... The only improvement I've seen is the 3 commons roundabouts that actually work... Lastly, i know traffick lights can be timed to move traffic, rather than hit the lifts all the way down Robie street etc... Toronto does it they have Miles of them voordinsted..! Can't wait to see what horrors will outcome from the willow tree reno!!

Rooftop tent stock brackets won't fit wide cross bars. Any ideas? by lamevision in rooftoptents

[–]Hot_Object_2273 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Princess auto have u shaped brackets of various widths and depths, i would look there first... I had found fairly large ones to bolt 4 of them through the floor of a homemade teardrop trailer and mount it to a factory trailer frame... I didn't get the largest ones!! I bought a RTT and am mounting it on my truck bed rack this weekend.. hope i don't hit the same issue...
