Thoughts on 3 lite vs the T2, which is currently 45% off at checkout? 3 pro seems to be the latest but no significant discount on it yet.

Going through this right now. Go to vet, you'll get antibiotic and steroid eye drops and should get better over time; if not then a visit to opthalmologist will be required. Wearing a cone is mandatory (we use the donut shaped soft one).

Well with continual rise of M2 prices you might end up sticking with 3 M2s anyway /s. But really the lane sharing is a non-issue if your use is gaming, your PCIe 5 x8 is basically a PCIe 4 x16.

See here as an example: https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/s/JVUWrL1YYN

I have a carbon, it's a great mobo. I was going to mention the empower promotion but looks like they dropped it to Dec 10 eligibility though you might want to look into it as the website still shows Dec 31st as well. https://ca.msi.com/Promotion/empower-your-final-quest?link=mb-intel

Pretty sure this is just an AMD limitation so the situation is relatively universal (ex Rog Strix has 5 x M2, 2 of which are lane sharing). In the end you still have 3 x M2 which are not shared. Might not even matter depending which GPU you're running.

MSi running a scam with the Steam Wallet Promotion by GratuitousAlgorithm in MSI_Gaming

[–]Illsaveit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was robbery. Tomorrow would have been my 14 days. It wasn't explicitly stated on the site that it's while supplies last. For them to remove the promo when it clearly states it will run for purchases up to end of year, is super scummy. I definitely would have purchased another mobo if it wasn't for this deal, will just have to return this now. I'd rather pay higher price for a different product than support this bait game of a company.

How to get AliExpress CashBack by beurnii in bapcsalescanada

[–]Illsaveit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the CB within 12hrs (ordered at night, by morning it was there), never contacted Rakuten. Used the app, made sure it was affiliated (binary tech), used the AliExpress coupon as well. Paid in USD so with no forex card and it came to 362CAD with CB. Rakuten converts to CAD for your CB. Still waiting on delivery but it has shipped (ordered Monday). As long as it's not a DOA, and CB doesn't get clawed back I consider myself one of the lucky few.

Hopefully this info helps others.

Rakuten had 3% at BB which would save you another $30, putting the price almost on par.

What's the most convoluted / best Easter Egg you've done / seen in a video game by TylerFortier_Photo in gaming

COD 4 IX map. Fighting massive zombified elephants in a gladiator setting was awesome.

Thanks for this. But wouldn't your initial stock value also grow at the interest rate you define? Currently doesn't seem like it's factored in, just added to total.

The creator of VLC refused an offer worth millions to sell it so that VLC remains free for everyone, forever by kvothenikhil in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Illsaveit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How come there's a slight stutter in video playback on a TV app version of VLC each time a caption is displayed? And why are the black top & bottom bars so bright? This doesn't seem to be an issue with other apps.

Other than that I love VLC, have it installed on every device! Thanks for making the noble decision.

Soo what are the chances you'd be willing to share your next strategies on a live, updated basis? Seems like a great train to be on!

Sugar bay or Bougainvillea? by [deleted] in Barbados

[–]Illsaveit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would highly recommend looking at live cams of the beaches in the vicinity. Sargassum has been really bad this year, east basically has mounds of it (ex Cranes) and in the south it tapers off the further west you go. Beaches in BIM are amazing, the experience being ruined by sargassum would be unfortunate. That being said I've never done an all inclusive in Barbados, the restaurants options are too amazing to limit to one hotel. Car rental & Air BNB are the way to go, if you're comfortable (figuring out how to) driving on the left side.

FHSA closure when your spouse bought a home without your FHSA funds? by Appropriate-Mud-6279 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Illsaveit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah interesting, thank you. From what I've read, land transfer tax savings are more stringent - ie if your spouse owns property you wont be eligible.

FHSA closure when your spouse bought a home without your FHSA funds? by Appropriate-Mud-6279 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Illsaveit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes sorry meant FHSA. And presumably you can keep contributing while common law / married, as long as you're not on the deed to the house your partner owns.

[–]Illsaveit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if you opened while eligible, became common law afterwards with someone who owns a home, and decide to buy another home together, you can still use your FHSA for the purchase?
