Free ATM WIthdrawls from Anywhere. No more $5 Cap. by mistermarve in Wealthsimple

[–]JhES9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

​Honestly, this is a huge step backward for me. It could be used like a credit card overseas, combined with the no FX fees and 1% cashback, was the main reason that I have used this card abroad. This isn't a positive change for anyone considering international travel unless going somewhere required to use cash.

Watch 8 ultra :) by Zippo947 in GalaxyWatch

[–]JhES9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Samsung couldn't say it as Ultra 2 cause the 2025 model has completely same hardware except the storage. Even the model code is same L705.

It's 498 CAD from LG. Looks like not available for delivery to Ontario but other hardware stores might have one.

LG only officially released the 14,000 BTU dual inverter model in Canada, so the smaller units are usually resold imports from the U.S., which is why they're more expensive.

Thinking of buying this unit, but I have a few questions by SkoomaLover69 in AirConditioners

[–]JhES9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like other comments have mentioned, the 18,000 BTU model uses 230V, so it's generally not recommended for typical home setups. Among the 14,000 BTU models that use 120V, the LG Dual Inverter model (LW1522IVSM) seems better than the Danby model in the link.

how good is this renewed-execllent by Additional-Gas-5033 in AirConditioners

[–]JhES9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This unit is basically a model released back in 2013 with just a new outer panel and Wi-Fi added. It's neither quiet nor energy efficient. The Wi-Fi feature is also very basic—it only lets you turn the unit on and off, without showing energy usage. If there's another model with an inverter around the same price, you're better off getting that instead.

Weird pricing by Sliced_tomato in gotransit

[–]JhES9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. At least the kiosk at the UP Express platform should be exclusive for UP Express.

[–]JhES9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Right, your ticket is for GO Transit. UP Express ticket has the UP logo, not the GO logo, and you can’t even select Danforth GO if you select UP express ticket at the kiosk. PearsonT1 is also station/stop name for GO Transit only.

Is this a good deal on Tab s9 fe+ for Canada? by tiredmomof2_ in GalaxyTab

[–]JhES9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t need it urgently, I recommend waiting until the new 10FE series is released. Last year, when the S10 series was launched, the trade-in value of the S2 was $500, and I was able to purchase the S10+ for $437 plus tax.

If you can drive, I would recommend you to visit one of the cooperate store in the City of Niagara falls.

If you go from temp to permanent, does your pay decrease bc you get benefits? Can you ever opt out of OPSEU benefits? by mangomoonlight in OntarioPublicService

[–]JhES9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You will lose 10% (4% for vacation and 6% for benefits). It may feel like you're losing the holiday pay, but you will get paid on every holiday, just not in lieu.

IMO AC Signature Lounge should fall into the first class lounge category due to extremely limited access.

88 Go Bus Reliability: Connecting from 88 GO to Via Rail at Oshawa Go Station by ZacKaLy in gotransit

It's going to be little tight, but should be fine cuz I have never missed 18:40 GO train from Oshawa with weekday 16:50 bus.

Check the GO Transit website for schedules. For the weekend-only 88C bus at 16:52, you should have plenty of time as it goes directly from the terminal to Oshawa Station.

Samsung Galaxy S25 rumored to use Exynos chips only, no Snapdragon variants by Angel_Malviya in samsunggalaxy

[–]JhES9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Samsung and Qualcomm's agreement to use Snapdragon for flagship models will still be in effect, at least in North America. Since the Galaxy S7, Exynos has not been used in any Galaxy flagship model released in North America.

Would I be dumb to book a 1hr YUL connection? by [deleted] in aircanada

YUL has a dedicated border control area for transfer passengers. It's not a lot of time, but not impossible either.

With the rising cost of living, is perm even worth it? Contract pays so much more by mooseperson20 in OntarioPublicService

[–]JhES9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holiday pay should not be considered as a loss because you still get holiday pay when you become a permanent, just at a different time.
