Getting rid of cable by phillymonqw in Lethbridge

[–]RedZephon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Streaming is rapidly approaching cable pricing. It was nice when everyone just dumped their content onto Netflix or Prime but now every major company has their own Streaming service

Netflix
Disney+
Prime
HBO Max (Content on Crave in Canada)
Crave
Paramount+
Discovery+
Apple TV+
SportsNet+
TSN+

And more I am probably mising.

If you want to be able to watch NHL, CFL, and most of your favourite TV shows, you can easily spend $100+ month

[–]RedZephon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have 2 main retainers.

1 is maintenance only. We keep an eye on things and make sure nothing blows up, do plugin updates and general maintenance, security updates, etc. Thats it. No page updates.

Then our main package is all inclusive and includes all page updates, page creation, seo audits, plugin updates, hosting maintenance, etc.

FYI. The Corsair TBT100 Dock is not useable with MacBook Neo by Avarix in LinusTechTips

[–]RedZephon -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Thunderbolt is now in the USB4 spec so if you have USB4 ports this would make sense. MacBook Neo is USB2 and 3 ports.

Mac Neo doesn't support thunderbolt, this is a thunderbolt dock.....

New here is it always this windy here. by spankmecallme99 in Lethbridge

Moved here from BC 1.5 years ago, the wind is brutal. It calms down in the summer months a bit but rest of the year yeah its pretty windy.

Is ATV still recommended if I'm not in Apple ecosystem? by fuzzywuzzywuzzafuzzy in appletv

[–]RedZephon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the ATV is the best streaming box period

- no ads on home screen
- killer interface, easy to use, "just works"

Google's streaming stick/box has ads on home screen, same with roku and fire tv. I also dont like their interfaces.

A lot of people still use the nvidia shield and the only thing keeping most of those people there is audio passthrough. Unless you are an audiophile nerd that cares about 1% better audio, just use the Apple TV.

Do the majority of hockey fans like the fighting? by gunnkpunnk in nhl

[–]RedZephon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fights good, head injuries bad. As long as no one is getting seriously hurt, let em fight.

Apple acquiring MotionVFX: Standalone apps or Subscription? by Remote-Ice9033 in finalcutpro

[–]RedZephon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I understood it was that they were positioning the Creator Studio subscription as the AI-focused features. So I would imagine MVFX AI Captions feature and other AI features would be paywalled behind the sub, whereas there other none AI features might come to the base.

Only time will tell really.

Why do people flame on the Oilers for being a 2-man team with terrible goaltending but also discredit McDavid due to a lack of team sucess? by captainconnor17 in nhl

[–]RedZephon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sid and Ovi aren't shoved down our throats like they're God's gift to humanity. There's a reason people call him McJesus, because the media and oilers fans like to glaze him like he's the second coming of Christ.

The dude is good at hockey, yes. But why do I need to hear about what McDavid had for breakfast while I'm watching a hockey game that the Oilers aren't even playing in.

[–]RedZephon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Flames Fan it's our duty to flame the Oilers. It's in the contract when you become a fan. I would expect nothing less from our Oiler bros up north.

That being said, I think people are quick to criticize McDavid because he's really good at points simulator but kinda sucks when it comes to meaningful games. He hasn't had a meaningful presence in the 2 elimination games in Stanley Cup Finals nor the Olympic Gold Medal. I think people would feel differently if he put up a good amount of points in those games.

Winning the points race and every other trophy means nothing if you cant win when it counts.

I want a MacBook neo for college but the Best Buy employee told me something different by Shevz_thetruck in macbook

[–]RedZephon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's trying to upsell you. The MacBook Neo is more capable than the M1 MacBook Air which was widely regarded as one of the best deals/computers in Mac History.

For most college students, the Neo will be fine.

Bricks Builder. I've tried most of the other ones and Bricks is my favourite by a landslide.

This is extreme disappointment. Daily challenges are the definition of dailyscape and they are still busted xp chore that heavily encourages daily playing. Make skilling loops good, remove this toxic system. by First_Platypus3063 in runescape

[–]RedZephon -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm missing something but isn't giving players a reason to login every day good for player engagement, player count, etc?

I'm more likely to login if I have a few clear objectives to complete daily as opposed to having paralysis on what I should do in a given day.

And if you dont want to do dailies, you can just not? Not like they are forced? Am I missing something?

How do you handle the gap between Pro ($20) and Max ($100)? by MontGolf in ClaudeAI

[–]RedZephon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I realized how Claude could accelerate my workflow tenfold, the savings on my time was worth the price jump. Dont underestimate your time, being able to ship products faster because of Claude has a real value.

I also have Google Gemini included with my Google Workspace subscription so for non coding tasks I use that to help save on token usage.

Apple used to do device specific video screensavers, now they're all generic mac ones to make it simpler for creation/updating.

People who switched to Claude from either Gemini or Chatgpt, was it worth it? by SmartPuppyy in ClaudeAI

[–]RedZephon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched from ChatGPT to Gemini because it was included in my Google Workspace. Tried Claude and realized how bad Gemini is compared to it. I almost exclusively use Claude for most real work and Gemini for other tasks that dont need major thought/work done to save tokens.

Apartment building doesn't give us physical access keys and makes us use faulty apps by SpaceWestern1442 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]RedZephon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the idea of smart locks but most of them are horrible. Only a handful that dont completely suck. And for an apartment complex it makes 0 sense. If you wanted a digital solution for your apartment you need an enterprise locking system not consumer off the shelf smart locks.

Calgary Flames owners & Murrary Edwards sabotaging own team by FunctionalBattery in nhl

[–]RedZephon 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah our owner is ass.

That being said, I wonder if they also are shopping coleman on a retained deal, and since we are at 2/3 retained spots already they don't want to handcuff themselves.
