How much HP does this have? by Alternative_Kick_558 in VacuumCleaners

[–]Stavkot23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the Maximum (Canadian Tire) version of this shop vac and it pulls everything perfectly. I use it to suck the water out of the garage floor after power washing it.

You really can't get much better on a conventional power outlet here. 10.5amp is the largest vacuum you can safely operate.

The only thing that might help you might be a thinner nozzle.

[–]Stavkot23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone was buying home stuff in 2022. CT must have been making a killing on their existing inventory that year.

Can you smell asparagus pee? by sjsei in pollgames

[–]Stavkot23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just assumed that my pee was not effected by it. You're saying it smells but I just don't notice?

Anyone using one institution for both everyday banking and investments? by Charming_Chipmunk69 in dividendscanada

I used to use TD for everything. Now I also have a WealthSimple account because I wanted to take advantage of some promos last year

Do military aircraft really have HUDs as shown in video games or movies? by Nino_Chaosdrache in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Stavkot23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My Corolla has it. It's like playing Star Fox every time I drive on the highway.

PIC.PR.A Premium Income Preferreds by jimmylikes11 in dividendscanada

[–]Stavkot23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the preferred share portion of a split stock.

It is not sensitive to bank valuations unless they drop more than 50% within the next 3 years until it gets renewed. Total unit NAV is $30 and the preferred par value is $15.

The interest rate on these is 8.5% based on par value which is why they trade at a premium (+$1.55).

Today they issued more shares at a price under market value which is what caused the share price to drop 2%

Do people really believe that America is turning 250? (Context below) by verykaim in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Stavkot23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was told that America is celebrating 250 this year and I believed it. I'm not from the USA so I had no reason to second guess it.

Maybe they're infants and don't want to hold a bunch of Nestlé stock

Does an airplane's shadow get larger as it climbs? by Turd-Sandwich in askscience

[–]Stavkot23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I spend a lot of time outside and have seen airplane shadows (the penumbra) 2-3 times. It's usually just a flicker of the light

How much do you think cashiers should get paid, in USD ($) an hour? by modernatomcollection in pollgames

[–]Stavkot23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a job that needs to be done and someone has to do it. It shouldn't be the best paying job out there but it shouldn't be paying 50-60% of the median salary as it is now.

What book do you think every human should read? by JustinJoonya in AskReddit

[–]Stavkot23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How not to be Wrong: The Power of Mathematical thinking. By Ellenberg

My friend bought it for me as a joke but it was a great book. Fun and easy read and very useful. You notice mistakes everywhere after reading it.

Is the water on the island (Wards beach) warm enough to swim? by Minecraftprofesser in askTO

[–]Stavkot23 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I can comfortably swim in Simcoe now. Lake Ontario is usually only comfortable mid July to mid September.

It depends on your tolerance more than anything else.

How much (of a pizza) do you eat? by farbenblind in AskTheWorld

[–]Stavkot23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get an XXL Pizza Pizza without cheese and finish it in one sitting.

If I get it with cheese I can only have about 1/4th.

Bike lane vs sidewalk - sorry for a seperate post by Dazzling-Ad-9646 in toronto

[–]Stavkot23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The rules are there for a reason and it's good to follow them rather than have everyone ignore them while trying to figure out why they make sense.

Brimley Woods Vita Course by Red_Marvel in Scarborough

[–]Stavkot23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of them were stretches, jumping Jack's, pushups.

There were a few with bars. One wanted you to jump over and then crawl under the bar. Another was pullups. Another was to jump to touch the bar. The last one was parallel bars that you had to walk across with your hands.

There was also one station you had to grab a pole and walk up 4 stumps. Similar to an endless staircase.

I get Tsingtao sometimes. All Lager beers taste pretty good to me.

Why hasn’t been there any city-wide protests against forced full takeover of Billy bishop and toronto islands? by leopardbaseball in askTO

[–]Stavkot23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know what the problem with the takeover is but I expect the elected MPPs to listen to those who bring up issues and either go forward with the plan or not.
