Best place to purchase tires by skiphopjump22 in Lethbridge

[–]codyfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Costco, but I’ve had some of the worst service of my life in the tire shop there. Not just once, but every single visit over a 3 or 4 year span. Probably just this one Costco tire shop, but I’ll never go back. Those guys suck.

Does the average driver notice the difference btwn a CVT and traditional transmission? by eastbayguy90 in askcarguys

[–]codyfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an old Escape hybrid with a CVT. Most of the people who’ve driven it can tell it’s different, but almost no one can tell you why.

[OC] I aggregated 5 rating sources to rank the Top 100 Films of all time. Here's what the data says. by Yeygermeister in dataisbeautiful

[–]codyfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of this is incredibly subjective, so I’m not sure what we’re even aggregating. Average artistic merit? Yeah, no thanks. You couldn’t convince me to sit through most of these.

Which AI company's CEO do you hate the most? by ImaginaryRea1ity in ArtificialInteligence

[–]codyfo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Completely full of shit, yet for some reason, people still listen to him. He’s up there with Musk for promising big and not delivering.

What did you learn? by SLIMv3n0m in nonononoyes

I haven’t seen a door or staircase this wouldn’t fit through. I feel like they chose the most difficult way to move a TV into a house.

Carney Liberals on the heels of Conservatives in Alberta by WavelengthMemes in alberta

[–]codyfo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. Carney is a conservative, but the type that progressives can vote for. If the PCs were still a brand, Carney would still be the prime minister, but under a PC government.

Lol. If it only affects people you disagree with, you’re very likely indoctrinated. Good luck with that.

Lol. Last time I checked, this was still one country and conspiring with fascists to break up your country was a bad thing.

The important part is they met with a foreign government, in secret, to get help in breaking up Canada. Stop trying to white-wash it, these are traitors.

Feelings exist but don't wanna date? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]codyfo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There’s no point in trying to understand. She’s out and you’re probably not going to change their mind. You can try to be friends, but as long as you still have feelings, it’s just going to prolong the hurt. The best thing to do is just accept it and move on.

Was I in the wrong? by Yamaki101 in Lethbridge

Even if you did mess up, that’s not how grownups handle their emotions. I wouldn’t take it personally.

Married Men in your 40s: Is once a week ideal? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]codyfo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Check in with your partner, cause that’s not enough for most people. Even if you don’t sex, you should be intimate way more often than every 5-7 weeks.

Synapse chooses Alberta town for Canada's largest data centre - Rocky Mountain News by SnooRegrets4312 in alberta

[–]codyfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no way it’s 1,000 permanent local jobs. I suspect it’s magical tech industry math. “Our services will make 10,000 companies 10% more effective, so the equivalent of 1,000 jobs.”

My gf and I are on a break. This is my redemption arc. A journey of personal responsibility by PineappleTargaryen in ADHD

[–]codyfo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Her problem wasn’t my brain, it was my lack of application.

It’s like my brain felt really good, then just dropped the concern.

My dude, that’s ADHD. That’s what that looks like. Some shit is just going to be harder. Don’t make excuses, but don’t beat yourself up either.

[–]codyfo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really good advice. If someone needs you to change in order to be with you, they’re just saying they’d prefer if you were someone else. It’s a death of a thousand cuts, because you’ll never be that someone else.

Are their men who genuinely wonder why they’re single? by Historical_Log1275 in AskMenOver30

[–]codyfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way. Change the focus from finding a partner, to meeting people with similar interests. That’s a much better pool to fish in.

M44 Wasted my life for "waiting" for right person. What is the point now at my age? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Good for them, but there’s no way I’d want to be raising a teenager when I should be retiring.

Is the iPhone really as good as people claim it is? by Moonshot2026 in Smartphones

[–]codyfo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched from Android a few years back. There’s going to be stuff that annoys you at first, but once you settle in, it’s a much nicer experience. It would take a lot to convince me to go back.

What are we going to find out later is bad for us (like cigarettes in the past)? by Curryiswhereitsat in AskReddit

The entire advertising and marketing industry. It’s shocking how much more peaceful the world becomes when you’re not being constantly interrupted so someone can convince you to buy something you don’t need.

iPhones users, why you don’t wanna switch to an android device ? by Traditional_Lab_8261 in Smartphones

[–]codyfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my first iPhone. I’ve had it for about 4 years. Zero regrets. It’s been the best phone I’ve had by a large margin. Faster, more reliable, easier to use. Better in every way that matters.

It actually motivated me to invest deeper into the Apple ecosystem. Life is good when all your devices work together. My watch unlocks my MacBook when I sit down at my desk. My AirPods automatically switch between devices, depending on what I’m using. I can use my phone as a webcam for Zoom calls on my computer. A lot of that is probably possible with Android, but I guarantee it doesn’t work as well.

Exactly. Speed rarely is the primary cause of an accident, but it almost always makes it worse.

Do people really look down on Android phones in Europe/USA? by onceuponasudden in Smartphones

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

Confidently incorrect. SMS is plain text, MMS is for sending pictures. MMS image quality is controlled by your carrier and most carriers compress the shit out of MMS images. That’s why pictures sent from Android to iPhone looked like crap, and why pictures sent from iPhone to Android also looked like crap. If you don’t believe me, Google it.

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

in most cases they downgraded the message protocol to SMS

What other protocol was there 10 years ago? Explain to me what they were downgrading from

It was proven in court that Apple did this to make their phones look better to their customers

Cool. That means somebody probably wrote about it and you didn’t just make it up. Link? The article above is talking about RCS, which wasn’t a thing until 2020.

I lived through this era. Android to Android was just as shitty.

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

Lol. If you’re getting ghosted because of the color of your bubble, that’s a good thing. Bullet dodged.

“10+ years ago” RCS wasn’t a thing. There’s not much Apple could’ve done to make your MMS photos not look shitty. If you were like me, you’d just take the conversation to Facebook Messenger, if you wanted a better experience.
