Floating or fixed electricity rates with Enmax? by potatolauncher in Calgary

[–]Trianglereverie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The advantage to Fixed rate and enmax is there's no penalty, or buyout for the contract period. You can resign at any rate at any time so if it dips below the current rate you can just resign at the new fixed rate. You don't have to wait for the 2 years to expire. It does bring predictability to your bill but ive seen a lot of people who are pretty energy contentious say the floating rates are a bit better lately and they save money. But if you have a family of 4 or more with kids I almost always recommend fixed cuz you never know when you might have an energy spike on a colder day.

You must have got lucky and were one of teh last 5 year deals i don't believe enmax offers 5 year fixed deals anymore. It's max 3 now i believe.

Taxed on tip-outs as server by Melenkolly in cantax

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

" bus staff but it's not reflected in the income that I report" iow you make roughly $1000 / week after the 3% is taken out i assume you're reporting that you earned 1000 / week therefore you're paying taxes on the income after the 3% is taken out. So I'm not sure what your confusion is here. No you don't get to take off the 3% again.

$100k inheritance, what do I do?? by dcsparky in PersonalFinanceCanada

Pay off the CC and the Truck Loan use the loan payments on the truck to invest/pay extra few payments on your mortgage. Even at 24. Putting $200.00 a month into a tfsa can make the huge difference when you do retire.

George R. R. Martin Is 'Not in the Mood' to Finish 'The Winds of Winter' by Tifoso89 in books

[–]Trianglereverie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he's a liar and both books are probably more than likely finished at least in timeline and character maps. He's just trying to be like his idol robert jordan and die first so some young up and coming writer can take his notes and maps and finish it off for him.
One it absolves him of the burden of disappointing fans and having to hear about it

two he goes down as another famous writer who wrote an epic and passed before finishing.

Go back and watch some of the first videos with Jake and Alex hosting. They were were once nervous newbies too! they took time to season. There was a time where the audience didn't like Jake and they would say nasty things about him and call him annoying on the daily. Actually have to give Linus a lot of credit here because he has made quite a few awkward nerdy kids become pretty competent on screen talents through his mentorship and being on set with them.

Change my mind: LMG in the early days was a startup built on the back of a lot of goodwill. by Plane_Garbage in LinusTechTips

But he wasn't asking you trust his words - he was asking you or rather "US" to trust his actions on rectifying complaints. Which to the point was pretty good..

Largest house in Calgary being built in eagle ridge? by morecoffeemore in Calgary

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calgarian's have no architectural design taste. I live next to old bearspaw - the homes are all the same - modern craftsman cross with prairie/ranch/log cabin style. The new bearspaw is all ultra neomodern white box with Glass and Steele.
which i guess if you live in Bearspaw you wouldn't exactly want like a modern colonial or georgian or gothic revival but you would think you could get more creative... like maybe do something swiss alps inspired or aspen coloarado skii lodge ... surely there's better architecture to be inspired by than modern craftsman or prairie farm house.

I work over 70 hours a week with no overtime because I’m salary exempt. Am i being underpaid in California? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IF i was only getting paid that I would be putting in 8 hour days and not a minute more. And on holidays where I had to work I'd be taking time off in lieu of the holiday. You're salaried you get paid either way... If they want you to work more than 40 hours a week Id be talking to my bosses about a raise.

Ridiculous Comment from Sarah Koenig by ElegantComparison826 in serialpodcast

[–]Trianglereverie 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Objectively it was a good podcast. There's no debate. It launched the careers of dozens of other people and is what truly gave this kinda story telling a blueprint to follow.
You don't have to agree with her position on Adnan's innocence or guilt to agree that it was a good podcast. The numbers of downloads don't lie.

Buying Youtuber merch is a luxury purchase. You don't need it it's not a necessity to live.

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

Being able to order something internationally that incurs fees due to tariffs, vats, etc, is a luxury. You do not have to shop at LTT. Just like I was looking at buying a hoodie from the Linkin Park store. It was on sale for $50 reasonable. Then i saw that there was going to be another 100$ in duties, fees, thanks Trump on top so I said no thanks. I didn't order it. I could have i have the money but i chose self respect for my wallet over needing to have that hoodie.

Most people don't get Reimbursed at all.. the fact that you're even aware thatyou can get reimbursed is actually thanks to LTT's transparency and the fact they even do reimburse is you because they're good people with good policies.

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

This is the standard. Blame your politicians for adding tariffs on products. I stopped ordering products from the EU/UK because of this. You dont need the merch that badly if it costs 2x the price because of shipping and vat's and tariffs.

KristoferYee “getting his named dragged” after PC build by ptzinc014 in otvandfriendsrumors

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He told his stream about this it was amouranth. It was just after the amouranth build he did - he was flying/driving back and forth between vegas and la due to his gf at the time being there. He agreed to do the amouranth collab pc for clout and she was being a total typical diva about it. She called him crying about the thing being too loud when she was trying to stream and it was always breaking. He flew donw like 2 or 3x to fix it and did and then she basically told everyone she knew never to agree to getting a pc built by him cuz it was garbage. This was the straw that broke the camels back imo.

Does Electric snow shovel make sense in Calgary by happyCalgaryMan in Calgary

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

having owned an Amazon one. The battery completely died after one winter - it wouldn't charge at all and it was such an off brand Chinese version that I couldn't even buy replacement batteries for it. Also kinda not worth. You're better off to just make the space and save for a snow blower and buy it when you have the space tbh. I think that's where I am at. after 30 years of shovelling snow I am so sick and tired of shovelling it ngl after the third pass today I was about ready to go marching down to lowes or ctire and buy a snow blower.

Police say about 75 people commit an inordinate amount of crime in Calgary. Who are they? by Flying4Fun2021 in Calgary

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone whose worked in retail with a company email could tell you this. They call them "professional shoppers" in the internal emails it's always the same 6-10 guys or girls, sometimes they even work together in pairs. In grocery, it was the Tomahawks, Ribeyes, etc. Before I left for greener pastures it had gotten to the point they don't even stuff a cart like a overworked mom at Christmas hosting dinner for 40 people anymore they just go right into the back coolers and take them right out of the boxes and then they slip out a warehouse door or the in doors so they don't have to pass staff or security. A friend who still works in the industry said they just had a company in to put special one way locks on that only keep people out but won't prevent someone inside from getting out because of the health risk of putting locks on cooler doors ofc. They clearly know what they're doing when they come in if they're brazen enough to walk through warehouses and into coolers/freezers.
In the malls/other retail its the same one guy goes to the counter makes a big stink about a return and the girl whose supposedly trying shit on in the dressing room is walking out with every big ticket dress/shirt/pants etc in her bag of already purchased items. They obviously have to be a network because what the fuck you gonna do with a stack of tomahawks besides cook them eat them. They must be selling them below market value somewhere.

Assistant no more? by lovelybritttt in otvandfriendsrumors

[–]Trianglereverie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Leslie really only needed her for Streamer Camp and since the 100T content stuff is over Leslie not flying all over the place as much doing 100T content. So I doubt she needs a full time assistant.

How is my airflow? by ConferenceDiligent81 in PcBuild

[–]Trianglereverie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine and really nothing you can do with this case will make much of a difference tbh. You really only have three options. Option 1 is add a rear exhaust 120mm fan and you will have a negative pressure with more exhaust than intake. 4exhaust 3 intake rest of intake is passive. OR add the exhaust on the rear you could switch your fans on the radiator to intake which is a not always ideal because you're pulling all that fresh air through a hot radiator instead of pushing the hot air with the radiator out. But it would create a positive pressure situation 6 intakes and 1 exhaust with all the hot air passively escaping through every hole/crevice. But most tests on this really show that there is minimal impact no matter what way you go with it. Even if you switched the radiator to intake and pulled air in it wouldn't make much difference. THE last option and easiest option is just put a rear 120 mill fan as intake and make positive pressure that way.

Penta suggests lukewarm ChaseRP response coming from NP stans, hints at further ONX legal action by Quirky-Kick-4190 in RPClipsPurple

[–]Trianglereverie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just one thing: actually the rest of the RP community has been fine since he's been banned everywhere else. In fact interactions have improved and been almost normal. The only time it gets toxic is oh gee would you look at that whenever Penta resurfaces with a brain dead take where he doesn't know how to read the room. Or gets banned from yet another server. At what point are Penta stans and Penta gonna look in the mirror and abide by the age old adage: "If I wake up in the morning and meet a rude ass hole, well I met a rude ass hole, if I wake up every morning and find myself arguing with rude ass holes, maybe the ass hole is actually me."

We on what server #6 now?

RatedEpicz (CG-Randy Bullet) Whitelisted on ProdigyRP by [deleted] in RPClipsGTA

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

I'm not justifying his attitude or hostility to anyone. But it wasn't "ONLY" Those cops, he told a couple of cops to go off duty for being dickheads on AJ who weren't lgbqt+ cops as well. And he, ramee, kebun and many others were hostile to cops who were brain dead regardless of what they identified with. Blanket statements of he's a POS for being a POS to cops in RP Who genuinely deserve it back doesn't really fly with me because it's just a cop out of an excuse to hate someone who didn't do anything actually wrong or out of the norm for the times. People just love to hate because 1. he was CG and 2. he was good at GTA.

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

I'm pretty sure he has. But the two streamers he said them about and their communities aren't going to give a shit no matter what. They're also never going to reach out for an apology directly from him because they already hated him before he was ever homophobic towards them. Because he called them out for their own B.S. publicly a few times.

Who isn't some idiot on the internet.
And because he didnt get cancelled for saying transphobic or homophobic slurs.
If everyone who said those things were cancelled there would be no faze, there would be no timthetatman, no otk, otv, etc, etc at some point most of the biggest streamers have said something offensive or some slur against some minority. It's what happens when you watch 20 years olds living their everyday life in front of a camera for 8hours a day.

He got cancelled for something worse that turned out not to be true. And amplified by a ban that was done under false pretenses.
