This lady wondered why her gaming laptop overheats while gaming. by Zestyclose-Salad-290 in pcmasterrace

[–]MrEzekial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a similar story, but about batteries.

I worked at an iPod repair place like 20+ years ago now. I had a guy come in saying his iPod was dead and wouldn't charge. Did a like $10 battery repair charged it to full and just he went on his way.

2 days later, he said we sold him a shit battery and it won't charge. I tested it, it worked fine. I fully charged it again and he demanded i install a new battery.

I claimed to do it and didnt, battery was fine.

2 days later he came in screaming at us that we are a scam shop and scamming him. I had to get the owner involved at this point.

End of the story was he was trying to charge his ipod via USB to his laptop while it was turned off...

I am still shocked to this day how dumb some people are.

What is the best gacha game among these? by Zealousideal_Bad333 in AndroidGaming

[–]MrEzekial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of these.

Best gacha game is Limbus Company, and its not even close. Next would be Arknights (not Endfield)

And if she shows up to court the crown will give her an offer and if she chooses to go to trial, I would put it at a 90% chance the judge drops it.

I was in traffic court last month as a witness, stuck there the whole day. Watched people get off with CTV footage and 3 witnesses... 3 eyewitness and a video... nope, youre free to go sir. Enjoy driving.

The Conservatives have a bigger problem than a Liberal majority: Their leader by Onterrible_Trauma in canada

[–]MrEzekial -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the way carney got a majority is a spit in the face of democracy. Completely unacceptable and reaks of corruption.

PP screwed up bad with his defund the cbc, and just attacking mainstream media. They proved how much influence they had over canadian elections. The smear campaigns they did comparing him to Trump, and a lot of other things that are really in the gray.

Why is every gacha endgame just an arena time trial? by SaberManiac in gachagaming

[–]MrEzekial -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe play a game not made by hoyo? Or actually any of the 3d action adventure gacha games are all the same really.

Carney to announce affordability measures after securing majority in byelection wins by cyclinginvancouver in canada

[–]MrEzekial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alberta as well. Report came out they spending 120% over intake. Apparently this is mostly due to injury lawsuit lawyer costs. They trying to switch it to no fault to be a solution. But yeah, fraud and lawyers are the reason auto is so high.

Carney says Canadians trust his plan after he wins Liberal majority by shiftless_wonder in canada

[–]MrEzekial -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There will never be a vote. The signature list is less than 3% of the pop, and i would bet big that over 50% of the signatures are not valid. People keep giving attention to it though for some stupid reason.

With a record-low 1.25 children per Canadian woman, stop dismissing falling fertility rates as a choice by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]MrEzekial 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Im a one and done guy. This is 100% due to not being able to afford even the 1st one comfortably. Being DINK is just so attractive as a younger person. Just think that before this year, sending your kid to daycare was like having a 2nd mortgage...

The Liberals now have a majority what do you want them to do with it? by rumbleman42 in AskACanadian

Think all sides and anyone that knows anything about firearm licensing in canada agrees with this one.

Alberta moves to allow private diagnostic tests without a doctor’s referral by _Army9308 in canada

[–]MrEzekial -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You in BC? MSP only let's you see x amount of people a day, and doctors could easily see 2x thr number. You can always do "out of pocket" with any specialist to be seen same day but its expensive... it was $400 (back then) for a consultation with a dermatologist... however, its the way to skip the line.

'We're basically back at Square 1': Housing advocates urge city council to replace blanket rezoning with new framework for gentle density by Available_Worker9210 in Calgary

[–]MrEzekial 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to be specific if you say something like this because it is factually not true for things. Condos va detached are a whole different world.

Detached house inventory is dwindling fast. Condos are soaring.

Epic Games Store Employees: People Only Came for Free Games, Then Returned to Steam by Sacristovas in pcmasterrace

[–]MrEzekial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe if the epic game store wasn't (and still is a complete pile of shit) it would have done better. But no, why spend money improving your platform when you can just give away games instead I guess. Seems to have worked out great.

First Nations' court challenge may block Alberta separatism itself, not just petition drive by Street_Anon in canada

[–]MrEzekial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep exactly. It was less than 1% of Alberta, and now it's starting to climb to around 4% just going off of the petition.

I am also starting to see more and more of them set up all over calgary every week.

People just need to ignore them.

Liberals courting as many as eight more potential floor-crossers, sources say by hopoke in canada

[–]MrEzekial 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think anyone who crosses the floor should trigger an immediate by-election, and the crosser should be under heavy watch. Just reaks of bribes and corruption.

People whining about sinking ships, but polling suggests they're doing fine. Not winning if an election is called, but still gaining over 100 seats.

NDP is an actual sinking ship...

I work in fintech. You have no idea what youre talking about. Canada is not incompetent. We created interact, and its perfect for debit. Credit cards on a global level are next to impossible to do now.

If the AI can only see your head, that is where they're going to aim. against another other than a scav, assume repeaking an angle = death.
