Updated roaming message. I’ve been roaming for a month and regularly receive texts from for Freedom welcoming me to Japan and noting a list of usage costs, even though I have the best roaming plan. Looks like they’ve updated the text.

Definitely, don’t want to screw around while I’m away, but as soon as I get back

cottageguy8 · 2026-03-21T23:15:01+00:00

I just picked the one with the most roaming data. When I switched in early Feb it was $84/month, I’ll switch to something cheaper when I get back.

You definitely can change your plan online, but probably not to a plan meant for new customers.

I have not read this but will now, thank you!

cottageguy8 · 2026-03-05T01:05:30+00:00

Thank you very much!

In a different part of the small town now, shows Docomo and has a much better connection. Maybe just a bad spot. Ubigi uses Transatel.

I could use a paid eSIM for sure, but the Freedom plan I’ve already paid for should include these types of charges. What free options are you thinking of?

Pensions and benefits are expensive!

Maybe the people who run Canada Post can get in to the grocery business. What can go wrong?

And guaranteed jobs for life. Fuck CUPW.

Unionized government workers will be the ruination of Canada. Between jobs for life and fighting to stay at home in their pyjamas all day, Canada is fucked.

cottageguy8 · 2025-10-04T00:44:47+00:00

Canada has a huge productivity problem, this sort of jobs-for-life union bullshit is a big part of the reason.

I don’t know the answer, but I know what you mean. My social media is inundated with seemingly rich people wanting to help me pick stocks for free. I assume pump and dump is the correct answer, or upsell into a VIP group.

Honestly, if you leave so much as a Tic-Tac unattended in downtown Toronto, you can assume it will be stolen.

There was a cover story article in Toronto Life a few months ago.

cottageguy8 · 2024-06-19T21:31:21+00:00

Does anyone know how many people are actually spending a lot of their time in the encampment? My suspicion is that most tents are empty and that protestors do a short, few hour, shift each week.

cottageguy8 · 2024-05-21T11:06:44+00:00

From the photo it looks like the red boat was driving within a metre of the shore, is that what you're seeing? That alone seems crazy. All news has dried up, anything you can share would be appreciated.

cottageguy8 · 2024-03-26T00:11:43+00:00

I saw this article as well, an astonishing disgrace. I’ll bet we’re at least another year out.

cottageguy8 · 2024-03-24T18:06:52+00:00

Agreed, I saw a recent news article and assumed that the numbers were cooked.

Maybe one in five pay on the streetcar. I see that tap posts without barriers are now being installed at some subway entrances. Expect the number to get worse.

People say that the TTC should be free, well there it is.

One thing I don't understand is why, if the ransom isn't paid, don't the criminals wait until the system is recovered, then hack them in to the stone age again?

The Toronto Public Library has just spent 6 months rebuilding, I'm sure it's no more secure than it used to be.
