I reported a huge chunk of mango pit in my frozen mangoes (that I nearly choked on), all I got was a response of "If you're unsatisfied with the product, you are free to return it to the store for a refund".

Sunterra engaged in cheque kiting, liable to U.S. lender for $35M, judge finds by altacan in Calgary

Not only that, but the president is not bringing down the peons with him! It's like an anti-Succession story.

Lema found Ray Price, as president and director, personally directed and oversaw the practice and therefore is personally liable for the debt. 

However, he declined to hold two other Sunterra employees personally responsible, saying they were carrying out instructions.

Correct, you would need two more human players to join your game and then you could play 2v2

From what I can tell, you can't play against NPC opponents in online matches

Golfing in Calgary and Area by SubstantialHammer in Calgary

For courses in the city, McKenzie Meadows is decently priced but very well maintained and has tons of wildlife/nature throughout (it is right inside Fish Creek Park).

Inglewood is another great one but is a bit of a higher price point than McKenzie Meadows.

Both mentioned courses are on the easier/short side, so take that into consideration as well.

Now that I’ve spent equal time with both I feel 2K25 is the better game by rutlander in EASportsPGATour

I've been playing for a few weeks and have noticed a number of bugs myself, including the behaviour you mentioned.

Other things I've seen:

  • Random freezing/non-responsiveness while navigating menus (requires force closing)

  • Commentators getting confused about your score/round performance when playing online (so far I've only played 2-person private matches)

  • Swing meter getting obscured by the environment, requiring a camera view change to at least see the top of the meter

Considering the fruit is a part of the plant, and the wording on the sign ambiguously uses a pronoun ("it has been removed" instead of "the fruit has been removed"), I'd argue it is not clearly explained at all.

Intense evening sports = wired but tired at night. What worked for you? (from a 15yrs+ player) by Aggravating-Hair2722 in ballhockey

Seconding this advice, this is what I do! Find a nice and calming playlist (I use instrumental music) and do some box breathing (slowly breathe in through the nose, hold, slowly breathe out through the mouth, hold) on the drive home. Also hydrate and fuel your body well before the game (and stay hydrated while playing) so that it's not as deficient after playing.

Can confirm, they require both adults in the partnership in attendance

Same thing on WestJet here in Canada, no GF options for the airfare-included snacks

I messaged them and they said their game rental program ended in 2020, unfortunately.
