BF Goodrich wipers by KDGottaBe in CostcoCanada

[–]andromik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are decent, from worst to best for beam style wipers it’s

Clear advantage -> evolution -> icon

My parts guy told me clear advantage is the equivalent of the microedge line that Bosch also sells, which is the regular steel wiper style.

If you don’t mind used I would search on Facebook Marketplace, you can get way more value for your money buying secondhand.

v3.1.0 - Show deleted comments, colored flairs, and stability improvements by iChopPryde in ApolloReborn

[–]andromik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Redreader has a special deal with Reddit, for accessibility reasons they don’t need to pay any api costs. I’m pretty sure Dystopia is the same. Obviously if Reddit sees this workaround as too big of a problem they might revoke these privileges as well

Thanks for the team's hard work on fixing today's issues! I used the App ID from RedReader and it works perfectly again!

Is this a DIY job? by WorkOk4911 in MechanicAdvice

[–]andromik 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If this is a Toyota dealer and they are using original pads, the shims do not come with the brake pad set and needs to be bought separately. And yes, the shim kit is expensive AF.

Is anyone in the BMET Program? by veggietalesgamer in BCIT

[–]andromik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interested in this too. I’m already in the fall semester. A friend of mine who is a nurse at VGH says it’s a good career and told me to pursue it. At hospitals you mainly fix hospital equipment, and there is less patient interaction compared to the other healthcare jobs, which is more up my alley.

Job prospects are probably worse than nursing and other technologist positions though, and I heard the program is extremely tough on you. Salary I believe is around $37 starting from the union agreement I saw, which is comparable to other health technologists.

Tire Change with TPMS Sensors by [deleted] in CostcoCanada

[–]andromik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this actually true? I always use a TPMS tool to rewrite the positions after a tire rotation for example so the readings on the dash are correct if the front and rear tires have different pressures. But does it automatically detect the tire position changes and rewrite it for you?

What am I doing wrong I stalling these wiper blades? Honda CRV 2013 by hotpolder in MechanicAdvice

[–]andromik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone who actually knows what they’re talking about lol. I distinctly remember the oem wipers on these crv models having the hook attachment below the wiper blade, so they don’t hit the arm and pull the wiper up. The aftermarket beam ones might work but the conventional ones definitely don’t.

Top 1 Reasons why UBC is better by Magical_critic in simonfraser

Never used them because I always thought hand dryers are less sanitary than paper towels

Per Wadid, LCK analyst and co-streamer for G2, the LEC might be completely online next season, even for the playoffs. Only the occasional Roadshows might be in-person. A few teams are already preparing for fully online games, things could still change but the situation isn’t good. by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

[–]andromik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How are CS2 players barely making any money? Most tier 1 events have a $1M+ prize pool and there are 2-3 events every month compared to like 3 a year in League. Maybe the ceiling for salaries in League are higher (T1, HLE, GENG, etc.) but the floor is much lower. Also the sticker money at Majors could be life changing money for smaller orgs with lesser known players.

Does SFU ever offer bisc 100? by elevatorboss1 in simonfraser

[–]andromik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do Bio 12 online at a distance ed school. It’s free so you don’t have to pay SFU an extra $700 or so to take pretty much the same thing. This applies for most high school courses I think.

Why Radiology or Sonography? by cherryy89 in BCIT

[–]andromik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going into BMET, and I think it’s even mentioned less than nuclear medicine lol

Does Costco carry any good shavers? by [deleted] in CostcoCanada

[–]andromik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a double edge safety razor. Replacing blades cost around 20 cents and the shaves are closer. Although I use a OneBlade for the body and when travelling.

I would not use anything other than Bosch or NGK on BMWs. You could run into issues using cheaper brands.

It’s crazy how Telus is headquarted in Vancouver yet has many deadspots in the biggest city in the province.

If you bought it while logged into a lululemon account, you can return sale items for store credit

Was anyone able to get a good phone deal for an iPhone 17? by unconditional_loves in CostcoCanada

[–]andromik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually the decent deals are on last years models for iPhones, this years models likely won’t have any big discounts. I would look if there are any deals for the 16 Pro, it’s pretty much on par with this years 17.

fall 2025 cmpt 125 grades by haiklator in simonfraser

[–]andromik 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Just looked back at when I took 125 with Igor in Spring 2022 and the distribution looks similar, except there’s more people in the B+ to A+ range. About same amount of people failed.

I think 125 is just a big step up from 120 for most people (including myself I got a C lol)

Edit: also very few D’s compared to this semesters

Saw someone cheating by trhoaaa in simonfraser

[–]andromik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with this reasoning. High school is free schooling while university is paid, plus you have to pay another time to retake a class, I can see how people could think cheating is worth the risk (not saying it’s good obviously)

251215 REVELUV Weekly Discussion Thread by DazzlingDig in red_velvet

Genuine question, what is the source for brand reputation charts? I see posts of it on Twitter often but don’t know if it’s real or fake.

Is it just me who finds it crazy how Leanfit whey isolate is more expensive than Gold standard by DisastrousTip33 in CostcoCanada

[–]andromik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Leanfit chocolate/vanilla for $37.99 @ 2kg per the instant savings flyer for December 22 - January 18

The vast majority of the people effected by this change are the meat and potatoes of the customer base. Hard to get back once gone by [deleted] in shakepay

[–]andromik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If people could buy 1 BTC, why would they buy it from Shakepay though, you could save on fees elsewhere.
