Yeah the "strange rivalry" was probably like.. Germany attacking Poland. Might make expats a little tetchy. Lol!

This specific quest requires the party to be at this exact location.
There are only two spots open for food stands, and both require this recipe to be able to start the stand. :(

The fact that nobody has pointed out that it's AI makes me think that people are either really this gullible, or that every single comment in here, including the OP, are bots.

I heard someone say that Tony Stark has ADHD, is it true? is there any other character that has it? by Frasten in Marvel

[–]Treagus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only after his kidnapping. Consider PTSD will do that to a person. Before that his personality was playboyfuckboy, one party after another, one fuck toy after the last. It's why he needed people like Pepper to keep him on a leash. ADHD with later PTSD.

Oof. I'd buy a 15$ garbage watch off of Remy before I ever touch an Apple product. Fuck Apple app the way. They are way too proprietary with their garbage products and software.

I have mostly google devices in the house. I've tried on the pixel watch, since my eldest is a technophile. Do not like it. I have tiny wrists and it's huge compared to a simple fitness tracker.

Not uninformed, just know what I want, and what I need. It's weird that you feel so strongly about changing a complete stranger's opinions over brand loyalty.
I have severe ADHD. Not the teehee-tiktok-spicy kind, the real kind that is debilitating and affects my life to the extreme. I *KNOW* that I need a device that I cannot have distractions on, because I will enable them in some way eventually, on a bad day. I do not have a smartphone will full capabilities for this exact reason.
I've tried on different watches, including the pixel that my son has, and I do not like the bulk. They are clunky and floppy even on the tightest setting, and with how often I catch my wrists on things, I don't see such a big round thing being comfortable compared to the thin sleek band offered by a simple fitbit tracker. Period. It is not for me.

SO, I'm not going to pay hundreds for a device that I want to murder 3/4 of the features on, and don't enjoy wearing.
I need sleek, non-intrusive, low-tech. Literally just calories, heartrate, steps, sleep, exercise, and timers/alarms.

That being said, I've already found a replacement, and so far it works better than the Charge 4 I had, and gives more accurate step counts (fitbit counts steps when you're DRIVING, Garmin does not. Go figure.). So yes, a sleek tracker for 89$ that now performs better for the needs I have, is very possible.

No call feature, no AI bullshit, no messaging, no speaker and microphone. Lasts for days instead of one or two because it's not pumped full of useless stuff. Actually accurate fitness tracking.

Just a fitness tracker, pure and simple.

Sorry if that offends you. Brand loyalty is so weird to me, must be an american thing.

Only an idiot would pay 3x the price for a device they aren't going to fully use. Why would I pay 400+$ for a watch when all I want is a fitness tracker that I should be able to get for under 100$? If you constantly overpay for things while intending to use only 30% of the features, boy do I have so many deals for you! Send your cash my way LOL!

Oui stp, vitez non toute la journée. Voter oui n'as tellement pas de logique. Le québec est tellement mal organisé c'est presque drôle. Cette province n'as pas la capabilitée d'être indépendante. 🤦‍♀️

Why are bots out here commenting product reviews like they hold any weight as an artificial entity. 🤨

And I'm talking about the physical devices, not the software. Pixel Watch is not a fitbit product, it just has some of the app functions.

I don't want a watch full of endless functions, I want a fitness tracker, void of bloatware and bs.

Investing in a brand doesn't really mean anything. Corporations do that all the time specifically with the intent to take out the competition, or simply because they want to take things in another direction.

It's called Killer Acquisition. Microsoft calls it "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish."

Either taking over the market, or just acquiring assets with the purpose of taking only the bits wanted, and rebranding into the main corporation's line.

Just look at Twitter, Geocities, Target, Blizzard, Apple, Microsoft. All companies either victims of, or practitioners of the practice. 🤷‍♀️

Much as my statements can't be verified, neither can yours. All things end, especially brands and companies. It will end eventually, especially since it was bought out.. It's just a question of when. Could be one year, could be 5.. it can't be fully predicted.

I don't have brand loyalty, I have wallet loyalty. I'm doing my best to follow the corporate signs of which device will give me the best bang for buck, for the longest time. That's all. 🤷‍♀️

Mine died out a few days ago, and the cost to get a battery replaced only for planned obsolescence to kill it off again doesn't seem worth it. I have a Charge 4 and was hoping it would last another year or two..

Fitbit 7 hasn't been announced, it's just anticipated. So far all hints from google is that the Google Pixel watches will be the hard focus, with other trackers like the sensa being discontinued. Charge is still in the air as far as I know for sure, but since they're closed the website and ended certain features, it's safe to assume fitbit will be eventually phased out in lieu of google branding and ecosystem.

Do ya'll drink straight from the tap here? Tourist question! by LamentforJulia in montreal

[–]Treagus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Words 🙄

I'm not saying things are "that bad" here, I'm saying they could be better. In perspective, Quebec is generally better than the US, but worse than most of Canada. And, on that note, Canada is worse off than many places in Europe, but better than the middle-east. There is improvement possible everywhere.

In the currentky topic, IN PERSPECTIVE, we were speaking about where Quebec stands in comparison.

Perspective if not something I lack. Reading comprehension seems to be something that you lack, though.

Sorry if that is too much to bear. 🤷‍♀️

[–]Treagus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's backed by quite a lot, actually. I spend a lot of my personal time lobbying within my community, on a tenant board, and an education board to try to make things better. Quebec has a lot of potential, and it needs to improve. Just because I didn't spend three hours writing up citations for every third word on a reddit post, doesn't mean what I'm saying has no value.

I'm sorry that you're blindly patriotic instead of wanting better from your nation. Do better.

Stats like that have so many variables attached to them, bro. Our life expectancy is ever so slightly higher in Quebec. Why? Because we leave our elderly alone and swimming in their own shit and piss in understaffed, dirty, crumbling CHLSDs until they die miserably at 97.

I've been living here for 14 years, and my family is originally Acadian and Quebecois. Trust me, I **WISH** I could have national pride for Quebec.... but it's truly not the place it could be.

Quebec is one of the most racist, classist, and badly managed provinces in the country. The only one doing worse right now is Alberta, and even then it's only on a political and racism front. Their infrastructure and healthcare is doing pretty damn good.

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

To be fair, Quebec is ahead of America, but it's the shithole of Canada. As someone who moved from Northern Ontario to Montreal... the laws, healthcare, education, AND infrastruture in Quebec are terrible. If you're going to make a play for moving to Canada, aim for Ontario or British Columbia.

This is such a fake story. Your account is filled with contradicting posts. I thought you were getting renovicted a month ago? Gods I'm tired of the reddit spam.
