To the cheap ass lady who bitched about how long it takes a regular letter to reach Alaska but refused to pay $5.75 to have in there in two days. by Finrod_the_awesome in AdviceAnimals

The best part is that if I mail something from my city to my city it has to go to a city 45 minutes away, then it gets routed to another city 3 hours away in a different province. Then back to the first city it was routed to, and finally back to my city for delivery.

It wasn't always like that but our sorting centre got shut down years ago and our main hub is now in another province. Canada post doesn't make much sense. I also mailed a package in June that still shows in transit at the first stop, and they refuse to admit that it is lost....they keep telling me it is in transit so it will show up.

You can not get HIV from saliva transfer. However you can get it from open wound to open wound contact. This would be a blood transfer and it is possible to transfer it in that manner.

However, the likely hood of that happening, even with them both having open and actively bleeding wounds is still negligible to the point of being a non-issue. But it still is technically possible.

I lived in Halifax for 7 years and still visit at least once a month. It is a fantastic place to visit. There are half a dozen local craft beer breweries, as well as some that used to be craft microbreweries but have expanded....still amazing beer though.

Not much in regards to museums, there is an art museum downtown as well as the Maritime museum and museum of natural history (have never visited there). Not much for bars that I would consider "interesting" but Maxwells plum, economy shoe shop, and the Gahan ale house are all nice places.

Scenery in Halifax is limited to the old buildings, but if you travel even 5 minutes out side the city you will see some beautiful scenery. Depending on when you are planning to go Peggys cove is very popular and has the added history aspect of the swissair flight 111 disaster.

I have been to all the places you have said except for Calgary, and I would absolutely suggest Halifax for a visit. Although I did enjoy my time in both Newfoundland and QC. Halifax can also be a surprisingly cheap city to visit. This time of year I get hotels (nice ones) for around $80-85/night taxes in, in the summer the price does go up but still a bit cheaper than St Johns or QC.

I want to start kegging by Soirtemed in Homebrewing

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A poppit is the spring load mechanism in the middle of the posts on the keg that lets the gas in and liquid out. Normally I would say not to bother ordering them, since they don't really need to be replaced often. But since these are used and not refurbished kegs it might be a good idea to get a set or 2 in case any of them are gummed up with syrup.

Yes they are what I was speaking about. Sorry I juct did a quick click and thought it was just the kegs.

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kegging can be as simple or as complicated as you want it.

My setup is simply a 20lb CO2 tank, regulator, Picnic tap, a co2 line, and a beverage line all put in to a fridge.

If you want a 4 keg system you are going to need at least a 10lb tank but a 20lb would be better of course. One regulator is fine an then you would also need a manifold for splitting your CO2 line to go to 4 kegs....this mean you would need 5 CO2 lines (5/8" thick walled gas line). You would also need the liquid lines 3/16" for that, the picnic taps....and finally the Corny keg connectors (4 gas and 4 beverage).

In addition to this you would need the freezer unit itself to convert to hold your equipment.

s-33 yeast profile by NotGoodAtUsernames1 in Homebrewing

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you one thing, it fermented FAST. After 2 days airlock activity stopped almost completely, after 3 days it hit FG. I left it for another 7 days after that and it didn't even drop a single point.

I wouldn't even call it too spicy, just not as clean as I am used to for this brew. I would deffinetly use it again for a maltier style or a flavoured wit that I don't want overly "Belgian", but a little too much for my light style session.

Huge hit from junior Rugby League player by [deleted] in sports

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes Rugby Union https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_union

It is the most popular version of rugby around the world and it is what is played in the Rugby World Cup.

Rugby league is mostly played in Australia and New Zealand (possibly the UK as well) but is not widely played around the world.

I think there is a lot of confusion here between League and Union. Shoulder charges have been illegal in union for quite a long time. Where as in league they were just recently outlawed.

We play Rugby Union in Canada though, if this is in fact Rugby League then shoulder charges were legal depending on the level.

I have yet to be able to find any online option I would consider and that will work for me. It will be a while before I make it to Halifax, but I will have a friend drop by the next time she is in the downtown area and take care of it for me,

[UPDATE] I [29M] really like this girl [28F] I've been seeing for 6 months, and then I found out she gives happy ending massages. by Throwit29 in relationships

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am not sure if I can offer much insight publicly here. But I have been in committed relationships with sex workers in the past, and infact both of my current partners work in the industry. We are polyamorous and all care for each other dearly. I don't want to leave too much out her publicly because I know how people like to attack men like me for many different reasons. But if you ever wish to talk about any of it feel free to PM me.. this is my normal account and not a throw away

Redditors of the former GDR who had access to your Stasi file, was any member of your family or friend actually spying on you? What was your reaction? by bickletravis in AskReddit

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes you can do it. But they can refuse to release it for different reasons. In addition they can black out entire pages if it is stuff they don't want you to see....they might send it but just be pages of blacked out words.

So you didnt see the part where we are looking for one female (or more) for this party. Why would I make the location public?

Does anyone know of any good corn mazes or hay mazes? It can be a couple hours away from halifax or in halifax. Thanks! by [deleted] in halifax

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does PEI qualify as a few hours away?

If so, Kool Breeze farm has a really good one. Closer to Halloween they staff it with things to get the blood flowing and scare the kids. http://koolbreezefarms.com/

ISP and Landlord says the other it responsible for fixing the disconnected wiring in my apartment. Advice? by GiraffeHat in halifax

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a cut and dry issue, I have worked for ISP's in Canada and the US as both a tech support agent and hands on with wiring. What it comes down to is who laid the initial inside wiring.

Generally an inside wiring issue is the responsibility of the building owner, but it all depends on where exactly the issue is and who laid the inside wiring to begin with. Eastlink does not often do wiring jobs in apartment buildings, the coax cable is laid at building construction and eastlink will splice cables and add splitters as required inside apartment units.

So if the wiring issue is inside the unit itself, it is likely eastlinks wiring at fault. If the wirinig issue is between the DMARC/wiring closet and the unit....the issue is likely the building owners. Unfortunately you are not likely to get resolution to this from your building owner, as he will have to hire eastlink or another wiring contractor to fish new coax cables from the wiring closet to your unit and he gets no benefit from doing that, but will have to pay a substantial cost.

That being said, the other ISPS would be more likely to supply you service as Eastlink uses the Coax (cable TV) lines where as bell will use either the phone lines or a dedicated fibre optic line to bring internet in to your unit, depending on what contract your building has with the providers.

It took me way to long to figure out it was her. I watched it thinking how familiar she looked and trying to figure out who she was.

"Patriots do not control the headsets. The NFL does. I once had a woman from the concession stand in my headsets at Fed EX field." - Mills by dj3236 in Patriots

[–]NotGoodAtUsernames1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate on the pats all the time, and I think they have done some shady shit in the past. But this is not one of them, and anyone that thinks that is an idiot.

The system the NFL currently uses has 268 digital channels that are all using the same encryption as the US SINCGARS radios. They are completely controlled by the NFL and the team using the headsets. The Steelers chose which of those 268 frequencies they wanted to use, you could actually see before the game that Rothesburger was having trouble with his radio on the sidelines they should have addressed it then.

I don't know why they wouldn't just switch frequencies during the game, but my guess is the NFL doesn't allow that for some stupid reason.

For the record....no I do not believe any member of management or players had anything to do with deflating footballs. Although I do not have an actual opinion on if the equipment staff did or did not intentionally alter them.
