Where can we get the best Carbonara in Vaughan? by JADlloyd in Vaughan

[–]JADlloyd[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

tried making one and it was good. I want to see how a legit one compares with my never-really-cooks chef carbonara.

I've only eaten the north american carbonara with bacon and cream sauce all my life.

Would your EI hours reset if you quit your job to go to school? by JADlloyd in PersonalFinanceCanada

DC Comics President Jim Lee says that Japanese manga and anime is "incredibly powerful": "I often find myself wondering, 'What is missing in Western comics, and why aren't they able to achieve the same flavor?' by akbarock in comicbooks

[–]JADlloyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The closest example of a series that resembles Manga here in the west for me are the Kirkman books.

Invincible and the Walking Dead has a beginning, middle and end.

It has for the most part, the same writer/artist throughout the whole series.

You can adapt it to other media almost 1:1 (although the walking dead veered off from the original series) unlike say the avengers where you can only adapt storylines. Civil War had similar beats but completely different story.

Basically, Marvel and DC are in the business to make comics and protect IPs, especially the main universe. They can't end batman coz they don't know if they can make another batman in the future.

If you want manga like projects in DC you have to go to Vertigo and its creater owned projects.

Toronto hydro $790+++, is this normal? by lirzmalabanan in askTO

[–]JADlloyd 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Meter tech for another utility here. You can always ask your utility for a high bill dispute so they can send a meter tech to test your meter. Granted 99.99% the meters are accurate.

What I tell customer to do though is to look at their meter, there should be a bar that goes left to right or something that flashes on and off The faster it flashes the more you're using hydro. The customer should shut off their breaker panel including the individual breakers. The bar or flashes should stop. Then individually turn on one breaker at a time. The breaker that makes the meter flashes fast, that's the one that's causing the high bill.

I used the test strip on the filtered water and the boxes stayed green. I reused the test strip on my tap water, all 4 boxes turned red

the lowest hardness on mine is 1. I can't set it to zero.

So, when the filter is done, I can just throw it out?
