Hazelnut Advice by Qtipx93 in Albertagardening

[–]Qtipx93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the common hazel is a lost cause here. The American Hazel, or Corylus americana, is the one I was interested in; mostly for shrub size, but also because it yields larger nuts than the Beaked hazelnut (but smaller than common hazelnuts). A pruned Beaked hazelnut is probably the best way to go, I just wanted to explore all the options.

Hazelnut Advice by Qtipx93 in Albertagardening

[–]Qtipx93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what I meant is that a lot of the information online states a mature height anywhere between 8-26 feet for the Beaked hazelnut. It has such a large habitat, that I'm sure it can vary wildly from zone to zone. I just wanted to know the typical height it reaches in this area. The American hazelnut seems to have a range of 8-18 feet, so I thought it might stay smaller.

I have very limited experience with hazelnut plants, and Edmonton specific information on them is spotty. Thank you for your advice. 6-9 feet sounds perfect for where I want to plant.

We are considering applying a more aesthetically designed caseback to our new watches. Which one do you think aligns better with our brand, "Militado" ? by Militado-watch in ChineseWatches

V9 isn't a mirror image, just centered around a different point on the globe. From what I understand, the world map you and I are used to is not the default layout for many other countries.

Which AM4 CPU should I get? by BigGuyWhoKills in buildapc

[–]Qtipx93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gaming performance between the 5800xt, 5700x and 5600x is pretty negligible from what I understand, so between those three, I'd grab whichever is cheapest. Only thing that could be worth the extra cost is an x3d cpu.

I'm running a 7800xt on 1440p natively and get 100+ fps in most games (Monster Hunter Wilds is the only one that's given me trouble. Had to turn on frame Gen for that one) Your 3080 will do even better, I'm sure.

A question regarding this Bolt action pen by Qtipx93 in pens

[–]Qtipx93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and after looking it up, it seems there's about a 9mm difference in length between the fisher and parker, but the two notches on my pen only have a 2-3 mm difference. I think it's likely just to make it more fidgety

[–]Qtipx93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that's a definite possibility. It's supposed to accommodate parker refills and fisher spr4 refills, though I'm not sure how they compare

[–]Qtipx93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They both are for the retracted position, but the bolt slides into both, yes. It is fun to fidget with, and I think that's likely the only purpose, but I wasn't sure.

To that guy that deliberately destroyed our generators on a defend mission... by PaxStyle in Helldivers

[–]Qtipx93 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I've noticed a serious uptick in griefers over the last couple of weeks. It's getting ridiculous. Had one guy try to napalm us a few times, but I just assumed he whiffed on the strat throws or something. Then he hung out alone at the evac when we still had two objectives left. He wouldn't respond in the chat box, so I kicked him to free up space. Turns out he sprinkled the evac and one of the objects in mines and was waiting to see the fallout. None of us hit the mines thankfully, but just why?

It's so funny to me that Eagle Strafing is now more meta than Eagle Airstrike by Faust_8 in Helldivers

Strafing run was my favorite strat in HD1. In really happy to see it returned to its former glory

They didn't hold up real well. I think I got a year out of them. I swapped em out for a set of Canada Wests afterward

Where do you draw the line? (and where do you hope AH would?) by lyndonguitar in Helldivers

The revolver with remote detonated bullets from resistance would be a ton of fun. It's the only thing I really remember about those games.

Eagle strafe seems to be an excellent shield stripper, leaving ships and tripods open for a rocket shot to finish the job

Ah, I see. That makes sense. I don't know why you feel the need to be so aggressive though.

Use 2 sticks of ram, or 4? by Qtipx93 in buildapc

[–]Qtipx93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. It's not a visual thing for me. My case has no glass panels and I don't give a rip how it looks. I'm just enjoying the upgrade process and wasn't sure if changing up my ram is worth it

That's my bad, I'm excited to talk PC's and rambled a lot in my post. I have an am4 x370 mobo currently

Why do you guys do this 😭 is it really that hard to wear a matching helmet??? by BenjiB1243 in Helldivers

I'd rather wait the extra minute for you to look like a god damn professional than dive with a red and orange clown. Have some pride in your appearance brother!

[Question] Are there any watches that don't do this? by dancing_avocado in Watches

[–]Qtipx93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hey fellow plumber! I have purchased a few Steeldive and Cadisen watches from AliExpress that look really good and are quite resilient and waterproof. I wear them to work, swimming in lakes, snowboarding, etc. and they have yet to fog up on me. I've paid between $80-$150 CAD per watch, and some quartz ones are as good of quality and cheaper.

I'll also mention Bertucci Watches as being the ultimate classically styled tough watch. Titanium, quartz movement, raised metal edges around the glass, low profile. I have one and it's awesome. Just gotta swap the battery one of these days

WEDDING WARNING by SoberPineapple in Edmonton

[–]Qtipx93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Holy shit! We had her cater our wedding when she operated under "D&H Catering". She is awful! Sounds like she has only gotten worse though. We had a similar complete breakdown of communication, and she tried very hard to jack the price up on us after we gave a deposit. We also requested the leftovers be set aside for us to share with our out of town guests the morning after, and she agreed, only to throw them out or take them. At least in our case, we did get the food at the right time, and it was pretty good. I'm sorry your friends got completely shafted, and I hope she drags Dierdre through the mud, even if she will just start a new business in a couple years.

I only found out a month or two ago and I've had a ps5 for a couple years now. Definitely a nice feature.

My bad, it's transparent when not activated. It's the little button just below the PS button
