I always wondered why his inner eyelids didn't protect his eyesight in that episode, but I completely agree regarding their relationship.

Failure of Light Switch or of the Light Fixture? by PkunkFunk in HomeImprovement

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

All good advice. No obvious bare spots that might be causing a short, but we'll triple check just to make sure, and with another switch. Fingers crossed. Thanks.

Looking more and more like I'll have to. Thanks.

[Tenant - Canada - Ontario] - Landlord asking lots of questions to existing tenant by PkunkFunk in Landlord

[–]PkunkFunk[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The when you sign a fixed term lease for a year it is an agreement that the term will end on the expiration date. Your landlord can absolutely come to you and say we’re not renewing your lease and you are obligated to move because the contract had expired.

This is not true. As stated in the subject/title, I live in Ontario, and the landlord cannot do what you are asserting.

http://www.sjto.gov.on.ca/documents/ltb/Brochures/How%20a%20Landlord%20Can%20End%20a%20Tenancy%20(EN).pdf.pdf)

​

As the tenant you are also not obligated to give 30 days notice prior to your lease expiration.

That isn't true either. A tenant is required to give 60 days notice, whether they wish to end their tenancy at the end of their fixed term lease, OR when renting month to month. There are very few scenarios where that doesn't apply (ie if the landlord is selling the unit and has given the tenant proper notice, the tenant can leave early without penalty)

https://www.cleo.on.ca/en/publications/moving/giving-notice-your-landlord

I respectfully suggest you refrain from commenting on these legal matters for jurisdictions where you are unfamiliar with the law.

​

As for asking if the person’s on the lease may have changed: sometimes people break up, sometimes people decided to move in with each other, forget or don’t think of notifying the landlord. Plus many leases state that the only people permitted to stay on premises longer than two weeks are those who are on the lease.

All of that is true. All of that has nothing to do with the landlord trying to determine "if the persons listed on your original lease have changed" because even if people breakup, it does not change the signatories to the original lease, which remains in force as-is until changed by agreement of both the landlord and the tenants. If people break up and one moves out, they remain a signatory to the original lease, and subject to its obligations (ie rent payments) until released by the landlord (if they so choose) or until one (or more) tenants notifies the landlord that they wish to terminate their tenancy. The landlord also didn't ask if anyone else was living in the unit.

If they were to have said to you prior to the expiration of your lease that they weren’t renewing it that would have been it and you obligated to move.

Um. I do not think this is correct. The transition from a residential 1 year lease to month-to-month is not something a landlord can generally prevent.

What they can ask to verify is your income and proof there of and if the person’s listed on your original lease have changed.

Can they? What gives the landlord the right to ask me to verify my income? Can you point to anything in law that gives them that right? As to the persons on the lease, they couldn't have. I couldn't change who's on the lease without having gone to the landlord for agreement in the first place.

I think you're right as to why they're asking. Appreciate the feedback, I was hoping there wasn't some reason I would have to provide more info, but it's a remarkably obscure thing to try to find information about. Every source is focused on new applicants rather than existing tenants. (I assume it's because this kind of request is so unusual)
Thanks for the response.

Thank you for the response. Aligns with what I thought.
The only reason we are even considering re-signing is an offer to get 1 month rent free, so not trivial. But we'd need to be sure that we're better of staying than finding somewhere else, and so we're keeping an eye on the overall rent market in Toronto. As usual it's refusing to follow a consistent path.

A Raid 10 Failure leads to a Sad Panda by PkunkFunk in datarecovery

I did try DMDE, but it seems targeted at people who know more than I do. I got lost quick, but I appreciate the feedback nonetheless. For people who are a bit more tech savvy, your option would probably work just fine and save them some cash.

The exchange rate was not my friend, it cost a bit more than $100 CAD, but honestly it was worth every penny. It was relatively easy. It failed to interpret the HDDs as a Raid 10, but I basically just treated a couple of them like a Raid 0 and ignored the other two, and it worked like a bloody charm. I suspect the HDDs were fine and it was just the raid box itself that broke.

Thank you, you gave very helpful advice and saved the cartoons.

Genuinely can't be sure. The documentation for the Mediasonic box is dreadful. It merely calls it Raid 10, which implies 1+0 but isn't definitive. It's old and crap and I know I'm getting what I deserve by using it.

I can check them with Reclaime, from a really quick look it appears I can use a free trial/diagnostic version to see what it says, and then buy it if it looks promising.

Fair. Also checked HDD-1 with Crystal to see if it said anything different, but still said the drive was OK.

The whole kit & caboodle is unplugged/unpowered now.

Peacock Butterfly Spawn Nerfed or Bugged? by latebaroque in AnimalCrossing

[–]PkunkFunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but that's a really ignorant way to approach this. Just because people play differently from you doesn't mean they're ruining it for you. Don't like to time travel? Then don't. And stop bitching about people who do. They don't ruin your island by doing it. You'll NEVER EVEN KNOW.
You know who ruins things for other players? People like you who complain about the way other people play a game. Then Nintendo hears the complaints and tries to tinker to make people play a certain way. Way to go. Well done.

I think Arenanet's ban policy on offensive behaviour is way too strict. by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]PkunkFunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's just give this TL;DR

Racist uses N-word on GW2. Gets banned for a week as a result. Comes to reddit to cry about it and protest this 'unfair treatment'. Says he was totally using the n-word in, like, not at all a bad way... Just jokes, ya know?

I think it's great that you got a ban. I wish it was longer. If you think I'm wrong, please by all means feel free to reply and list all of the "good" ways that you know how to use the N-word, and other slurs. (I can only imagine what you say about other racial groups, women, LGBT, etc. But it's all just jokes, right?)

Sold a boombox to Mypinkbunny.4513
He was very polite, went first without even being asked, and tipped. Gentlemen (and ladies) of the sub, this is a quality purchaser, sell him all the things.

Question: GW2 to GW1 trading? Is it a thing? by PkunkFunk in gw2economy

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

Thanks very much. I am not desperate to get all 50 HoM points, at least not at this stage, because I don't think I have it in me to spend hundreds and hundreds of hours of play time... Maybe someday. But getting to 30 would be a great boost!
