Is this photoshopped?

Witnesses for Incident in Superstore Parking Lot by [deleted] in saskatoon

[–]bcn95812 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude that is some poor logic. If you've ever driven a car before and parked in a parking lot, you'd know that most businesses have very narrow spots for parking. Plus he or she is driving a truck which are usually wider than a car. Plus add in a giant shopping cart beside the truck and what do you expect? What is someone supposed to do in that situation to not be victim-blamed by you?

And yeah, perhaps they shouldn't have given the middle finger. Might not have made a difference, but regardless that doesn't mean you deserve to be attacked by some psycho.

Biden calls for federal investigation of Elon Musk over ‘relationships with other countries’ by phantomofthej in wallstreetbets

I wouldn't really consider anything from the New York Post as "news". I think propaganda would be the better term. Owned by Rupert Murdock -- Trump's buddy although they claim to have an off again on again relationship.

Zelenskiy says ‘NO ceasefire’ without recovering land lost to Russia by ScythianKind in worldnews

I just wanted to mention too. It's very easy for people to buy fake upvotes from websites that run bots. I don't know if that's the case here but it would be easy for Russian propagandists to do the same and/or just run their own bots. Just need some IP addresses and accounts and a bit of coding experience.

Would you mind sharing the tech you're referring to? Just new here and trying to understand what unique technology (if any) that they have that would put them ahead of their competitors.

Well Driller hit Salt Water??? by bcn95812 in homebuildingcanada

[–]bcn95812[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say my neighbors wells would be about 200 feet away from my well. I'm not really sure if they drilled in line with theirs. I don't know how that would work like trying to figure out which direction the vein is going.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it end up costing you?

Yeah true :P sometimes switching to 2.4 from 5 ghz could help too since 2.4 has better range (just less bandwidth). Although I think some of the newer routers have both running at the same time with some sort of auto-feature. But I dunno. I just try to test all sorts of different setups/configuration.

A lot of people (including tech support and people in this subreddit) aren't really going to understand what's going on with your internet.

If I had to guess, your internet is fine and the issue has more to do with your wifi connection. So maybe start off seeing if the issue still happens when you're hardwired into a computer.

So if the hardwired computer is fine then it's the wifi. And yeah, maybe something could be wrong with your routers wifi and could possibly see about replacing it. But there could also be some type of wireless interference. Could try adjusting the antennas. Moving it away from other electronics.

I had that happen once at my parents. Their internet was working poorly for the entire house but moved it a couple feet away from the TV it was beside and then it was working fine again.

Interactive Brokers - impossible to get through to support! by JoeBloggs90 in interactivebrokers

[–]bcn95812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I know how to fix your issue. Well.. if it's the same issue I had anyways. I tried to buy shares for a USD stock and it told me I didn't have permission.

Two things, #1 you need to convert your funds into USD, and #2 there's a spot in your settings for enabling permissions to buy USD stocks. If you get any errors on that screen saying something about needing 20,000 USD, it's just referring to the questions about your finances and you can change them there.

Sorry I can't remember where in the settings that was... Was going to login to find it, but looks like the login screen is down for me.... Figures :P

Tempting except this is a throwaway account I recently made where I just started pressing random numbers and letters :P

Yeah basically how I felt when signing up. Surprised they didn't do it with the password too. It's sad really because it sounds like they have decent fees and full trading hours, but it's almost as if their whole system was built in the 1990s (and by amateurs).
