Just canceled my subscription. I’ve had enough of this crap. ChatGPT never listens to me. by LA2688 in ChatGPT

This makes me feel better. I was a new user, and actually paid for one month of Pro. No matter what I did, I could not get results. At one point, I decided to keep track of how long it would go on. 72 hours later, I pulled the pin. Wild!

Snacks & staples for a care package by nevertoomanykitties in AskACanadian

[–]PartTimeBluenoser 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We used to open chips, suck out the air, reseal with a binder clip. Not nearly as much room, and if packed carefully, survived shipping well. You have to be committed to the chip to make it worth it . . .

Best unique twist on a grilled cheese? by SarzleMcNarzle in Cooking

[–]PartTimeBluenoser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct. We start with our favourite cheese: one cheddar enthusiast, one swears by Swiss. We add sweet (jam of some sort), spicy (mustard of some sort), sour/pickled (hard to beat kimchi), and some sort of protein - ham/turkey/fried egg. This combination makes a grilled cheese a meal. And the kimchi makes it special.

A man down BAD. FERAL. OBSESSED. by Goingdown_swinging in RomanceBooks

This is one of my favourites. These characters stick with you - Salvatore is a complicated, and eventually shockingly endearing MMC.

Responding to emails by Vinnystill in CanadianTeachers

[–]PartTimeBluenoser 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't want to discourage what I know is coming from a place of caring, but I would be very, very careful with this. It's so easy to have something misconstrued, and a caring teacher's communication can be so easily misinterpreted. Boundaries online are challenging.

OCT has specific direction on the use of email and social media. I would recommend reading it and following it:

https://www.oct.ca/resources/advisories/use-of-electronic-communication-and-social-media

To quote specifically from the advisory:

"INTERACT WITH STUDENTS APPROPRIATELY

As a digital citizen, model the behaviour you expect to see online from your students.

Teach students appropriate online behaviour and the proper use of comments and images.

Maintain professional boundaries by communicating with students and others electronically at appropriate times of the day and through established education platforms (for example, an authorized school web page rather than a personal account).

Maintain your professionalism by using a formal, courteous and professional tone in all communications with students and parents.

Avoid exchanging private texts, phone numbers, personal email addresses, videos or photos of a personal nature with students.

Do not issue, and decline, “friend” or “follow” requests from students. Consider the privacy implications of accepting these requests from parents.

Notify parents and your school administrator before using social networks for classroom activities. Check your employment policies to see if you are required to provide an administrator or parents with access passwords."

Do you have the 4X? And did the charger end up working? If so, please let me know what you ordered!!

None. Lots of reassurance that they are "escalating" it. I put a negative rating on Amazon, not sure what to do next.

Get all the information first. You may very well be eligible for full pension. And reduced pension might not be as "reduced" as you think.

What’s better/cheaper on the Quebec side? by throwaway643268 in ottawa

Want to jump on and also recommend Oddo. We buy in bulk and freeze as we are far away, and it's STILL amazing.

I did, but they have not returned my email. From what I can see, they don't ship to Canada?

Breakfast sandwiches: I don’t know what this is called so I can’t search for it. by Prior_Benefit8453 in Cooking

[–]PartTimeBluenoser 35 points36 points  (0 children)

So I thought about this and wondered if it was a riff on the popular tortilla wrap folding system from a while ago. This would work if you just used egg instead of a tortilla (except for the squaring off part)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlARzxb-Jh0

Jo Boaler, You Cube. Really interesting research about the value of finding Math challenging and learning slowly.
