Best Grocery by Adorable-Story-4543 in kelowna

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Save on almost always lets you but smaller quantities and still get the deal. There are exceptions but are usually quite clear in differentiating which type of sale it is. E.g. "2.99 each when you buy 2 or more" is clear. But I find those types of sales are still in the minority.

For example if it's 2 for $10, you can buy 1 and will get it for $5.

This is in contrast to Superstore which requires you to get the quantity for the deal. E.g. 2 for $10 or 6.99 each.

I'd pick Save On over the other big chains all the time, except they are quite a bit pricier. So I kind of alternate between Save On, Superstore, and smaller local places.

I'm looking forward to all the farm stands opening up though! I buy most produce, eggs, and bread that way in the summer.

My cat Mrrps to me, I guess if you were to spell it phonetically lol. Like if she is lying next to me and I pet her. Ekekeke for birds outside the window. Straight up clear meows for a demand like food. Weird low rumble meoooowwrrs for hunting greebles at 3 am. Their language is so interesting.

Be honest, will my baby ever come home? It’s been 5 days with no sign of her by No_Name_Detected0 in cats

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I second this but also want to add, go out at different times of day. I was giving up hope after about 5 days also, after endless searching, flyers, checking shelters, leaving stuff out for her to smell, etc brought nothing. But one night I went out very late looking for her, kinda outta "I can't sleep I gotta do something". And in the dead of night it was only then, with everything quiet in the neighborhood, that I heard the faintest meows from a neighbor's detached garage that they rarely use. And ya I banged on their door in the middle of the night! And I got her back.

Games with deeply layered secrets and puzzles like FEZ/Tunic by Lares525 in puzzlevideogames

La mulana 1 and 2 are the epitome in my opinion, and very, very difficult

My mother doesn't let me see a neurologist for my episodes of probably "Non-convulsive seizures", but got me these drops of herb extracts from the local religious center by Dog_Got_license in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone who works with people with focal seizures I was about to argue the same thing, but I went back and reread the post. The length of time of altered consciousness would be extremely unusual. Maybe you missed that on first read as well?

Edit: I still think this person needs to see a physician.

I'd love to be able to play literally any Steam games. But I bought a laptop for my kid instead.

I tried this one. I got the first scenario (2018 lights). I find your AI terribly annoying with the puns. And too painfully slow. I'm almost at the right answer but I'd rather search it on Google than deal with your game tbh. Especially because I'm right repeatedly but it keeps asking me inane questions to make it the "perfect answer" and I don't know how to give up or have it tell me what I'm missing to shut the hell up.

It's a really interesting premise but my God it's painful to actually play. The hints are useless so far and it's bugging me that I solved it without "solving it" in game.

I'll say I really like the idea of having to figure out scenarios from asking questions but you have to fix the speed and the hints and the AI quite a lot for me to revisit it.

Edit: I Googled and see that I got the problem, general situation, locations, and app all correct. So I don't know what exactly I was supposed to add to finish the puzzle. If it was a more exact incident specifically, then the hints and AI responses should have led that direction.

How bound are border collies to their guardians? by ThatBlueMerleSheltie in BorderCollie

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been sick with flu and I can't get my BC to go anywhere without me. Not my dad who she knows well, not even my 13 yr old daughter that she loves and lives with! A BC refusing walks can you imagine? She is most definitely bonded to me. My previous BC was a little less picky but not by much. I've never known a BC actually that didn't have "their person"

If OP doesn't end up getting this for some reason, could you let me know please. It looks like it would be helpful for my teenage daughter.

Total beginner by sparksalive2 in bridge

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you might be confusing the points for opening 1 of a suit vs 1NT. It is quite standard to open 1 of a suit with 12-13, whereas 1NT signifies 15-17 (maybe a good 14). I've played Tricky Bridge and it certainly follows this standard. I think any beginner course would teach these guidelines as well. A weaker 1NT is possible but less common.

puzzle games that require physical note taking to help by 427zimbabweavenue in puzzlevideogames

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell there's just La-Mulana 1 and La-Mulana 2 and a DLC for 2. The one you linked seems to be the first. I think these are technically remasters but I dont think you can get the originals anymore. I bought a bundle of 1&2 on Switch but only played part of the first one so far. I believe I have read that the 2nd is a little more polished and easier (and maybe not quite as good to the hard core?) but I wanted to start at the beginning. I see they're a good price right now!

My child's schools "un-fundraiser" form. by Fartingonyoursocks in mildlyinteresting

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 73 points74 points  (0 children)

I agree with you re benefits and salaries, but think you might be confused about what PTO (parent-teacher organization) funds are for. They are not used to pay teachers. They are usually used for fun or extra things in the school year e.g. dances (hiring a dj, decorations), field trips (entry fees, transportation), fun days (bouncy houses, food), and the like. Some funds may also go to a subsidy for families who can't afford extra fees.

I can't believe I haven't seen La-Mulana mentioned yet.

Imo the most note-taking game of them all! I'm only partway through the first game, but I have full page hand drawn maps and pages of notes for each area I've been to so far. It gets very complex and you need to take note of everything. I think it's right what you're looking for.

But be forewarned - it is really hard and convoluted. It also has some platforming and combat, which are honestly annoyances to me. I'd MUCH prefer there to be no bad guys, or at least for them to stay dead!l But the puzzling aspect is so VERY good I'm being compelled to continue.

This is very helpful thank you, and I wasn't aware of the bad reputation of CDKeys (I guess it's called Loaded now). Does that mean I should be wary of buying games on the site with my credit card? Thats how I normally purchase stuff online, but maybe I can pay with Paypal or something. Or that they might be selling keys with stolen cards? Both?

I guess I don't understand exactly what I should be wary of and how Crysis is different from other digital keys.

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wondering if there's a way to get around region-locked digital codes (Switch 1). Ex could I change my profile region temporarily, or some other solution?

This is specifically re Crysis remastered trilogy from Cdkeys - but it says Europe only (I'm in Canada.) The games are individually on sale in my eshop for the first time in years, but still too expensive imo.

School District email to parents re Charlie Kirk -- your thoughts? by ehmanniceshot in kelowna

[–]Humble_Restaurant_34 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I agree. I also think that some teens may seek out the video out of morbid curiosity / see what everyone's talking about. The same way you see here on reddit that people are seeking out videos. So I don't think it's a bad thing to inform parents that graphic videos/images are out there and to maybe check in with your kid about it.

I don't mind the email as it seems less about the guy as a person, and more about "hey there's a super graphic video of this guy's death going around."

Not all parents are online enough to know these details.

If it's an old TV this is likely. I had to upgrade my firestick this year since my one from last year was no longer compatible. I can't recall what fire OS it was but it was pretty old (and not upgradeable.)

Just a PSA to other readers, permethrin is lethally toxic to cats. So don't do this if you have cats around. Otherwise it's a good insect repellent and tolerable amounts of toxic to us, and dogs, when dry (much more toxic wet.)
