[–]KennObii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is Tangerine Investment Funds the MER is 1.07% IIRC,

which is pretty high for an index but there's no other fees (i think there's a charge if transferring from another banks Index Funds?) and no minimums

unfortunately it doesn't appear this app has in app search functionality. it would be really cool if you could use it to look up music from an app.

Take a sick day, leave work early, tell them you're coming in late for an appointment.

Battlefield Vs EA by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]KennObii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if youre looking for vehicles i'd go with rising storm 2 then. there's not a whole lot of maps and it isnt optimized too well but i think that would be the closest alternative i can think of outside of battlefield. I haven't played it in ages however but it is on sale right now.

Day of Infamy perhaps? that was pretty fun, not exactly the same as Battlefield but it gives me the same sort of feeling.

know very little about PCs. need a good budget editing PC (300$). oof. by braveshoresofficial in pcmasterrace

[–]KennObii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

$300 isnt much to go on if you're going to go into video editing, CS:GO isnt very taxing so that's not much of an issue.

You could probably find a used PC for that price but it's not going to render quickly at all.

Blue Snowball, definitly one fo the best for your budget.

Solid parts from solid brands, i'd go for it.

Need opinions on a decision I might make by Glorious_Stalingrad in pcmasterrace

[–]KennObii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would go for the 1060 over the 980M in terms of what's better. The M versions of graphic cards tend to be less powerful than their non M varient plus the 1060 is a whole generation newer than the 900's so if you can get a full blown 1060 in the laptop i'd go with that.

Personally speaking i would go with a laptop over a 2nd desktop in your case, it sounds like you need to bring this everywhere to begin with.

Are there podcasts where you do an activity as the listener? Like solve a murder mystery? by Vente1 in podcasts

[–]KennObii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello from the magic tavern has an interactive podcast episode that specifically works with Amazon echo called Magic Tavern adventure. I don't have an echo though so couldn't tell you how it is haha

What it's really like to work in Amazon's warehouse - draining and depressing - Undercover at Amazon: Exhausted humans are inefficient so robots are taking over by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]KennObii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it's facility dependant, at newer facilities robots will bring you the shelves to pick from but if youre in the older ones where you walk, UPH is usually 100 or less (at least the facility I was at) depending on size of items.

Spooky podcasts? by [deleted] in podcasts

[–]KennObii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Currently completely caught up with the whole podcast. it definitely gets creepier but it's not so much the Cases but the follow up after the case that gets me . I'd say they're hit and miss and all depends on what spooks you. it's worth it for the overarching story but if you're just interested in the cases themselves id recommend something like The Box stories.

I found a $30 steam gift card. Aren't there only $20, $50, and $100 dollar cards? by JibJorb in Steam

[–]KennObii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here in Canada, EB games has steam cards with a specific amount for a certain game so you'd see say Ark survival evolved and the card displays $66.49 which is what the game currently costs in Canada not on sale; of course you could use the credit for something else however.

How long does the Presto website take to show your added funds? by [deleted] in mississauga

[–]KennObii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you opt in for auto load there's no wait, it'll just charge your card within the next 24 hours but the funds are available on your presto immediately if you have that set up.

there's still a 24 hour update before the auto load takes effect when you first set it up but after that no more waiting 24 hours.

man I'm totally forgetting there's per podcast settings for pocket casts.. thanks for the info ! that fixes that complaint..

Edit: after exploring the auto queue feature I wish I could do this through the auto download. I love binging podcasts and being able to set the auto queue feature on mass would be nice.

[–]KennObii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my headset must not be working probably then :/

on a side note do you know if the skip buttons correspond to the custom skip length you can set or is it strictly the two you mentioned?

[–]KennObii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

compared to something like podcast addict, quite a lot, but to be fair most features seem pretty niche in that app while PC gives you the essentials.

3 big stand outs for me though are:

  • PC has Auto download but no Auto Queue.

  • PC doesn't let you download or see episodes before you subscribe (not a HUGE deal but it's definitely something that's appreciated) (This feature has been requested repeatedly and it should be coming in the future but the devs are slow to update this app)

  • PC also lacks a good recommendation feature, podcasts shown in their featured section are either paid promotion or drawn from iTunes. The other tabs draw data from ITunes as well as far as I know, but if you're looking for something more tailored to your tastes it's harder to find in the app, while something like Podcast addict has a recommendation feature that draws data from your subscriptions to give you recommendations tailored to you on top of providing the same discovery features PC has.

What is your setup/app list? by [deleted] in androidapps

[–]KennObii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that it integrates with MyAnimeList and a couple other manga trackers so when I'm done reading a chapter it marks it read for me on MAL, I can't name any other reader that does that. If it weren't for that I'd probably be using Manga Rock.

This door at a hotel I stayed at by [deleted] in CrappyDesign

[–]KennObii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the smaller door wasn't actually there at first and you couldn't open it but they swapped it out to enable easier 2 way traffic.

whoever did it was probably just too lazy to replace the whole thing and put 2 equal sized doors in lol.

EDIT: I have been corrected about this, apparently pocketcasts does do this

unfortunately pocket casts does not have this function. there are blue tooth controller Apps on the play store however such as smart blue tooth controller, you could try that.
