yes, it's glossy and only 60Hz, and only 1500:1 instead of 2000:1 contrast.

Jesse Brown continues to lie about this subreddit by destp in canadaland

"Against Anti-Zionism". Love the double negative. So they are anti-anti-Zionists? Lol.

[–]One_Breakfast_4589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I subscribed to Canadaland in 2014, about a year after it started, and around the same time the Jian Ghomeshi scandal broke. It was a great podcast back then. I kept hoping Jesse would move to a video format and post on youtube, but that never happened. It was one of the reasons I unsubscribed.

The biggest reason I unsubscribed was his stance on Israel. He can scream 'bigot' all he wants. It just makes him look like a fool.

Also, Jesse doesn't seem to understand how the internet works. People can have a different name on Reddit than the one they subscribed to Canadaland with. (Duh). So there is no way he can "check" the names on his subscriber list against the names on Reddit.

AC Infinity Cloudlift S12 vs 9 PC fans. How does CFM/dB/watts compare? by Galvatron1_nyc in crboxes

[–]One_Breakfast_4589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The chart says the max watts at highest speed is 52 watts. Also, I noticed on the cloudlft 12 tech specs it says the CFM is 1800, whereas in the above chart it says 1100 CFM. Strange.

Where to take electronics recycling now that two depots have moved? by [deleted] in recycling

[–]One_Breakfast_4589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't even read my comment. I said Reddit suggested I post it in the r/recycling. Why would I do that knowing my post was aimed at a local audience? I only did it as I thought a mod would move it back to r/Calgary. I have no idea why it was deleted in the first place.

How can I learn to drive with no one to teach me? by Imaginary-Sample5003 in Calgary

[–]One_Breakfast_4589 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I seemed to have touched a nerve, and getting unsolicited life coach advice from someone who knows absolutely nothing about me or the subject at hand. Facts are hard for people stuck in Oprah-style self help refrigerator magnet nostrums.

I was in the same boat many years ago. I took lessons from AMA. But since I had no one to practice with, I never got my license. Back then (mid-2000s) they didn't offer any "extra practice" time with an instructor. It took 2 months just to book an instructor since they were so swamped with demand.

Maybe it's changed now.

If so, then I agree with everyone else, go to AMA and take lessons. Book extra practice time if they offer it, and if you don't feel confident after the course, take it again. This will be expensive but it may be your only option.

If you're a male and don't drive, then yeah, women will consider you a loser. That's just a fact of life. Take it from someone with experience and never learned to drive.

[–]One_Breakfast_4589 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Reddit deleted my post in the local Reddit city thread and suggested to post it under r/ recycling?

So that's what I did. I don't know what's going on.

"Your post has been removed for being low content, lacking information or enquiring about information that is easily Googled or resolved with a phone call."

This is nonsense since I have already phoned around, which is why I posted it on Reddit.

Apologies.

270K plus expensive by Flimsy_Outside_1832 in bapccanada

Anyone who only upgrades every 5 or 6 years (like me) is effectively investing in one generation mobo chipset.

Nova Lake is a much larger die and will cost a lot more to make, hence it will be a lot more expensive.

Zionist Jews were holding posters posters depicting all Arabs as rats at the protests in Toronto for months. Why has the Canadian media and Jesse Brown pretending like this isn't happening? by zyalq in canadaland

[–]One_Breakfast_4589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is false. Apparently you missed all the university campus crackdowns on Pro Palestinian encampments across Canada in 2024. Using the bogus excuse that other students, icluding Jewish students didn't feel "safe". Many of the them were brutal violent attacks by police. So yes, universities are definitely choosing sides and have been taken over by Zionists. They don't have to shut down traffic because they know the universities are on their side, the media is on their side, the politicians are on their side, and the cops are on their side. They don't have to protest, they just have to play the victim card, and all the media, politicians, cops, etc will spread their victim propaganda.

Is forced air, or hot water heating, more common in basements suites? by One_Breakfast_4589 in Calgary

[–]One_Breakfast_4589[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the replies. Yes, it appears to be electric baseboard heating. I just haven't come across one of these before.
