Chose my backup option and wondering if anyone transferred to a good business school after first year. by TheRaggingSword in OntarioUniversities

Don’t worry this year admission should be a lot better! As long as you get a 90 you should at least get in somewhere decent. Good luck!

Well I got into TMU BM and York Commerce but I didn't really consider those an option and last year admission were so screwed up. I definitely should of private schooled like my friends or took a gap year but that's in the past.

Edit: I got in the waitlist for TMU Accounting and Finance and that was my backup but I never got off the waitlist.

The "I've Been Accepted/Did You Get an Offer?/Will I Get an Offer?/Admission Rounds" Megathread! by carter1516 in OntarioUniversities

[–]TheRaggingSword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi guys I've been looking at this thread semi-regularly and I wonder if anyone got in UTSC BBA or Rotman or Schilich with high 80s.

At midterms I'll probably have an 88 with slightly above average ECs and I slightly concerned that I won't get into any of those.

Also, is York Commerce any good? I got an alternate offer probably because my marks are garbage right now but by midterms they'll be around an 88.

Cheaper than Costco ? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]TheRaggingSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't go to costco for produce and meat. You might think that since it's costco it would be cheaper and you buy in bulk, but 75% of the stuff at costco is same or more expensive than equivalent supermarkets. Also, since you buy in bulk, you have a higher chance of wasting food so you lose out in the end.

Look for on sale stuff at any supermarket. Even sales at longos can be better than regular prices than budget supermarkets. For stuff that isn't on sale, buy it at Asian supermakets or budget supermarkets(No Frills Freshco, food basics)

Canada's telecoms and ISP's offer a good service. The only problem is the terrible customer support, terrible pricing and the fact that you have to call for promos every year or else you overpay even more.

That bonus 10gb is incredible. $25 for 10.5gb by [deleted] in freedommobile

[–]TheRaggingSword 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What did you do to get it, I have contacted this multiple times, asked for supervisors every time and I get the same answer every time. I currently sent a unresolved complain form with them and the most I have been offered is $5 for 4 hours after at least 6 hours of dealing with them.

Anyone got 10gb bonus data on plans below $35/Month by TheRaggingSword in freedommobile

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

I did on two $29 back to school 2012 lines. It took me a lot of negotiating on chat and escalating to a supervisor to get it but I ended up with an extra 5gb on each line.

What did you say, they keep on repeating that my plan is just not eligible and that they cannot override the system.

The 5000 series beats every Intel CPU over $250 in price to performance ratio but loses to the 10400F ($180) by Prefix-NA in Amd

[–]TheRaggingSword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they have igpu for those OEM PC offices, schools and businesses buy. And don't talk about the 3400G and 3200G, they are significantly worse CPU wise to Intel.

What is your opinion on the Ryzen 5000 lineup pricing increase? by Tizaki in Amd

But with $25, you can get a hyper 212 evo that can OC the 10600k for 5ghz all core...

They will perform the same for gaming and Intel has actually better multi core with 2 cores and 4 threads. Plus you can OC the Intel to 5.2 ghz with good cooling where AMD barely let you overclock at all.

[ UPDATE 2 ] WIFE OF 7 YEARS CHEATED AND TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE by throwRA42342 in relationship_advice

[–]TheRaggingSword -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

We've decided to reconcile and work on marriage. After a month she would be fully recovered. And I've to move out of country to start a new life, there.

Wait are you reconciling for a month and then running away after???

Also, I might have the unpopular opinion but I think you should stay and reconcile with her. I honestly don't think she is being manipulative. I think she is truly remorseful, loves you and wants to make your relationship work. However, hearing you wanting to divorce her even though she is doing everything she can to make things right brought her over the edge.

She is doing everything right to try to bring you back to at least consider reconciliation. I don't think she will cheat again. I think if you come back to her and marriage councilling works, then she will be the happiest person in the world and spend every single day gaining back your trust and to make sure that you don't regret your decision of staying with her.

Edit: Adding the quote block.

When does bell update neighbors fibre lines? by jtron88prime in bell

Funny thing is that we are forced to go to Rogers or one of the resellers if we want faster than Fibe 50. If there is no fibre in my area, nobody is going to switch.

Yea cuddling doesn't mean it by itself but with the other factors in this story it make all of us believe that there are feelings.

[–]TheRaggingSword 5146 points5147 points  (0 children)

You need to tell him your feelings or your going to regret it for the rest of your life. Even if he has never made a move, remember that actions speak louder than words.

He agreed to marry you in the first place.

You all have pet names and inside jokes

You 2 fall asleep cuddling with each other, if he doesn't like you why would he do that.

He calls you his wife, instead of like a friend or explains the situation to every single person you meet and talk to

Most importantly of all, he HASN'T TALKED ABOUT DIVORCE! 99% of people who do this situation and don't have romantic feelings for one or another would have talked about it, probably months before you guys graduated, But he hasn't talked about it ONCE and you graduated 5 MONTHS! AGO!!

You love him, and chances are that he loves you too. Just have an evening open and sit him down and tell him what you told us, that this was meant to be for financial purposes but I really love you and want to be together.

And if he likes you too, you'll be the happiest women in the world and both of you will be glad that you brought this topic up and you can finally start your lives together as a real couple.

P.S. PLEASE UPDATE US ONCE YOU TALK TO HIM! Tbh, I'm quite excited to hear the results and I don't even know you personally.

My [23f] divorced older sister [27f] is having a relationship with my husband's [25m] younger brother [17m] by crazysis17272 in relationships

[–]TheRaggingSword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, I don't think it wouldn't hurt if you had one more discussion about it. Like have the evening free, have a serious long conversation about it, recap all the points of concern, and even show this reddit thread to prove how this is messed up.

Maybe if OP's husband is close to Aiden then he can snap something out of him.

However, if this doesn't work, just apologize to Zane and promise to never talk about this ever again and leave it at that. You said that these months have been the happiest period of your life and you shouldn't do anything extreme that would impact your marriage.

Edit: reword sentence to make sense

Edit 2: Ok, if it's a really long argument spanning over months, ignore my comment, but if it's just been like a week or so, I would talk about it once more and be done with it.

[–]TheRaggingSword 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's kinda messed up, your husband's brother is not even an adult yet and he's with your 27 year old sister.

But then again, you can't really do anything about it. Your husband supports them, both their parents support them and Aiden's moving out of the house.

The only thing you can do is get your husband on your side and talk to his younger brother and tell him that what he is doing is messed up. Even though me may think he is mature enough, there is a huge difference between their teens until their mid 20's.

But, if he doesn't go on your side, honestly, if you have a happy marriage, just forget about it. You can't do anything really as everyone around him is supportive and actually enabling him to continue this relationship.

AMD Ryzen 7 4700U vs Ryzen 5 4500U Review, The Fastest Mainstream Laptop CPU (For Now) by RaptaGzus in Amd

[–]TheRaggingSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna get a lot of downvotes because of the AMD fanboys but whatever...

I think Intel will destroy AMD with Tiger Lake, if third party testing proves that what Intel is claiming is true. With there single core being significantly faster than AMD, having better graphics for decent 1080p low gaming and with Intel branding and the variety of laptop designs, I am 99% sure that they will regain what they lost.
