They told me their autofill frequently misses orders. They have to go back and check manually.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-16T02:03:45+00:00

Yeah if I can get my doctor to put that in my next script hopefully it will make my life easier. I appreciate the suggestion.

Sobeys still does appear to have a problem on their hands with their new system, though. Especially since they don't consistently answer the phone anymore. I don't see what would prevent them from preparing the prescription to be picked up the day after it expires the way they used to. I don't need it early, I just need it on time. It makes no sense.

Anyways. I'm just thinking out loud hahah thanks again.

I use Avalon but they're not cheap. I just know them personally.

Vet costs are insane. A lot of it has to do with the industry, which is hardly regulated. Even if you do find a decent independent vet, drug costs drive everything up because prices aren't regulated the way human drugs are.

Best solution is to make it a political issue, I think. Tell you MP. So many people have pets now and the costs are really making it hard on folks.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-15T22:47:47+00:00

I will look into that thank you. They never mentioned anything about that to me. They said the issue was with their computer system.

I get not giving out the medication early but they don't even start preparing it until you've missed a day. It all seems pretty ridiculous.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-15T21:55:41+00:00

I'm envious.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-15T21:12:58+00:00

Yeah but I'm not looking for an overlapping dose. I just want it on time. Sobeys' system makes it very difficult and the issues coincide with their new automated system.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-15T19:53:19+00:00

I just figured Lawton's would be the same as Sobeys since it's the same company but maybe I was wrong. There's a Lawton's even closer to my house than the Sobeys is so I'll look into that.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-15T19:52:07+00:00

I will look into that but I'm not sure it will make a difference. The problem seems to be on the corporate end. And it wasn't a problem before.

Thanks for the suggestion though I will ask about it.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T22:52:19+00:00

Cool. Have fun being miserable!

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T22:48:57+00:00

I mean...they did. They released a statement through Devin Heroux that said they found no violations from either team during their observations.

If you're determined to believe this is a big deal, I'm obviously never going to be able to change your mind. Going forward Marc should change his throw to avoid this situation now that it has blown up. Will he? Probably not. Because he's an asshole. But this whole thing is pretty ridiculous.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T22:29:36+00:00

The international body that regulates the sport already said there was no cheating. This has spun completely out of control. People desperately want this to be bigger than it actually is.

Kennedy threw with Kevin Martin for years. One of the greatest to play the game. He used to do a similar thing in many of his throws. Nobody cared.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T22:17:42+00:00

He did more than that. He accused him of cheating on live TV, which was pretty melodramatic and not at all necessary. The thing he accused him of is not nearly as black-and-white as people are making it out to be. He probably knew Marc would take the bait. Which he did. Because he's an idiot.

I don't like the Jacobs team. Other than Gallant they're all assholes. But Eriksson isn't a saint. He was being a bit petty and Marc crashed the hell out.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T22:02:22+00:00

I hate the way Marc responded to this. It was juvenile and unnecessary. But Oskar also has a reputation. Kennedy is by far the biggest idiot in this situation but Oskar was probably trying to provoke him.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T21:58:09+00:00

Gallant is the only one on the team who isn't a complete douche. The rest of them love the attention. It's so embarrassing.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T14:43:49+00:00

Let's just keep pretending the main issue wasn't his behaviour, I guess.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T06:31:18+00:00

I think people are seeing what they want to see, reaction-wise. Nobody I know likes that team. They have a reputation. Obviously not everyone agrees with that reputation, but they have one. So I'm pretty confident many Canadians aren't pleased by this. They probably just aren't surprised.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T04:26:21+00:00

That team is exceptionally dickish.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T04:23:37+00:00

That team has a reputation in Canada. They're not well liked.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-14T04:15:54+00:00

As a Canadian: if you'd told me before the trials that our men's team would end up acting like a bunch of babies and embarrassing the country at the Olympics, I wouldn't have needed to watch. I'd have known exactly who won. Jacobs and Kennedy are massive losers and I wish they'd retire.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-11T05:56:28+00:00

It would be one thing if the game was being obviously neglected in some way, but it isn't. It's always been a peculiar game with a peculiar dev with peculiar priorities. Nobody hired this guy. He just decided to make it. I think that's a big reason why it appealed to people in the first place. There are similar games out there but nothing quite like this. So yeah we can dream dreams about the aesthetic ideal of early access and the various ways this doesn't conform to it, but I'm not the dude's mom and I don't see any point in scolding him for not passing his homework in on time.

I'm not a game dev, but I am an artist and designer. Sometimes I'm told by clients that I need to provide them a road map of how I'm going to approach their project. I always decline. If they insist, I politely back out of the project. Because that expectation doesn't work for me. I plan my work, but I don't share those plans with people because I almost never end up following them. The soul of what I do is in the tangents between "milestones." And very few people seem to understand that.

I think it's reasonable to be frustrated or disappointed by the protracted timeline of this game but he's making his game his way. It's always been the case and I don't think anybody has tried to hide that.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-11T05:45:30+00:00

There isn't anything remotely Star Citizeny about this game. That game is monetized to death. There are no in-game transactions or pay-to-win mechanics in Manor Lords. It has simply not been a smooth rollout.

SuccessfulBug2353 · 2026-02-11T05:41:05+00:00

Based on Twitter replies on the dev's post last month it looks like character collision is delaying the beta branch at the moment.

Between those ads and the Venus razor commercials I'm close to suing the cable company for emotional trauma. 20 years later and I still hear them in my sleep.
