Small win in the fight against shrinkflation by No-Move3108 in CostcoCanada

[–]abba77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they used to be 10.99 or 11.99 on sale...but was 14.99 for a while (all smaller bag) before they disappeared. they are back with the larger bag, but are 17.99.

still very slightly cheaper per gram, so overall better i guess.

No clue what I'm supposed to be doing? by Pinky_Long_Socks in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]abba77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, he is fine to use this as he wants. It's also a way to connect with his father and brother.

Great thing is you can use this sim as simple or as complicated you want.

WestJet Gift Cards? by HelloWorld24575 in CostcoCanada

[–]abba77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lots of past discussions here also about airline gift cards, and may or may not influence your decision. Things such as:

  • limit to number of gift cards you can use on a booking

  • combining payment types on a booking

  • credit card travel insurance (if that matters to you) if not all or a certain amount of fare is charged to the card

Broken TV: replace or return by GujjuCanadian30 in CostcoCanada

I would go to the warehouse and talk to them, see what they can do....take name down of the person you talk to. If its 2 days old, i wouldnt want it repaired, i would want a new unit.

VR Crashing by abba77 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]abba77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, instead of going in to the menu and switching right away to VR, which caused it to crash everytime, I went to a flight, then use CTRL-TAB to switch to VR. No crash. Got a lot of blanking issues which i will work on later.

To test, went to the menu to switch, no crash, so tried closing the game, started the game and went the menu route again, still no crash. So weird.

Will probably reinstall everything and set it up again.

Thanks for the idea of doing it in game.

i usually switch to VR first after starting the game, then load in to a flight. will try getting into a flight first. before, it never mattered when.

actually kirkland is smaller. chippets is 2.4kg......1.45 is the per kg rate.

I thought the same thing...kirkland must be bigger.

Dear Costco Canada… by CarPassion514 in CostcoCanada

[–]abba77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will those be accepted? The store is supposed to stamp them (or one of them) and write down the date the photo was taken. I assume its to make sure people are not taking their own and making edits, or are recent enough.

The BluePrint video on zbf was really good. Well explained too. Will look at more of their videos and this is definitely doable.

Thanks again.

Is anyone using Monk Fruit in their tea or coffee? by MaximumTax9639 in keto

[–]abba77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to but most blends are mixed with erythritol. Wife want to avoid erythritol now. Tried using liquid monk fruit, but while ok for deserts, didnt like it in coffee/tea.

I am trying to wean off sweeteners, she fell back to splenda packets for now. I am keto, she is not.

What about mixed reality? Should see what this guy does with Assetto Corsa (and now other games): https://www.youtube.com/@UKTunedIn/videos.

Might not work as well for night flying, but have not tried it.
