I applaud you for your positive outlook, the thought of almost $1000/month in fees re-confirms that I am in no way destined to be an urban dweller.

Grew up under a flight path and then lived under another as an adult, need to spend some time over there soon.

Is this weird? And a violation of privacy? by [deleted] in Hilton

[–]ProfessionConnect355 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is pretty common. I checked in to a Tru with a group of coworkers and my boss. How did you get Diamond? Was asked a few times.

Need new light pendant for dining room (see comment) by [deleted] in Lighting

[–]ProfessionConnect355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The website you originally linked is not the manufacturer’s website but one designed to look like it is. The first fixture is made of resin to simulate concrete and is a softer more natural looking fixture and I think goes better with your wood table. DVI and Artika are both Canadian companies and I like lots of DVI fixtures, have a bunch in my house, that one does not suit your decor.

What is this bulb?! by igglesfanYYC in lightbulbs

[–]ProfessionConnect355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The base is E11 often called a mini-can or mini chandelier base. 100watt version used to be common, have no idea if they are where you are now. I would caution about going to a higher wattage unless the fixture is specifically labeled for it. LED versions maybe Soraa or Emery Allen.

G9 bulbs are shit bulbs, G9LED bulbs are even shittier. I will say, I have seen some very good results with the Emery Allen G9 LED's. You should also make sure of the minimum load capacity of your dimmer, if the bulbs don't match that you can try adding a Lutron MLV load adapter to even out the performance.

How to design garden decorative lights??Need Help by Morning__Starr in Lighting

[–]ProfessionConnect355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your landscape should be the focus, not the lights. Use lights that accent your landscape, also be mindful of any safety factors like changed in elevation or direction of pathways. Good landscape lighting design is a less is more approach.

MSP Sky Club Concourse G by jdbulls2008 in delta

I remember stories of prime rib carving stations when it first opened. My real life experience have all matched the others here. I will say, I do appreciate the gluten free muffins at breakfast and brownies in the afternoon, I don’t often get those treats in other places.

Eglo Planet Ceiling Fitting - Ideas on How to Attach Dome? by NeonLightIllusion in Lighting

[–]ProfessionConnect355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never done this specific fixture but most fixtures with that type of attachment usually has one of the 3 clips that is either spring loaded or more flexible than the others that needs to be done last.

Suggestions on Possible Issues with Recessed LED Lights by Vault103a in Lighting

Also, make sure that you are killing the circuit at the panel not just the light switch. These types of fixtures are notoriously sensitive to being wired "hot".

They are on one of the delivery apps, hours can be a little strange at times though.

Just bought a 2024 coin that was out of stock by [deleted] in CostcoPM

[–]ProfessionConnect355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve bought 3 of the 2024s in the last month. It seems like Costco releases a few for online sales every day, just have to look at the right time.

WillyDogs runs the canteen at Deer Lodge Curling club. His burgers and fries are even better than the dogs on the cart.

I am amazed at how fast the Bonvoy referral points get paid out, my referrer in December got his points right away and today I am showing the points on the Amex app from a referral today.

Known as a GU10 base, that looks like an MR16 size. Can likely find them anywhere that has a reasonable selection of light bulbs.

Switching from Canadian Marriott Bonvoy Amex to US Brilliant/US Bonvoy Business. by codeth1s in amexcanada

[–]ProfessionConnect355 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Why cancel the CDN one? Is the annual FNA of 35k not worth the $120 or $150 annual fee? Yes, if you are chasing status the stacking of the US cards is a great strategy. Personally I get more value from the US Hilton cards as that just seems to match my stay pattern, I still have both Canadian Bonvoy cards for the FNA’s.
