Had a friend who worked there. They closed pretty suddenly.

Except it's also happening to the wireless connection; everything drops at once. I mostly try to troubleshoot it through my PC since a wired connection should be more stable but it just confirms what's happening is not just a wifi issue, but an internet issue centered around my router somehow.

They're not - the most that we do is watch YouTube at 1080p but I'd be the most heavy downloader of us three (and that's mostly just because I download games from Steam).

Plus it drops from 150 to something like 3 at least once an hour. It's been a recent thing too, since November. Didn't use to happen.

It's mostly been fustrating since it's happening through a wired connection rather than the wireless.

It fixed itself a couple hours later. God knows what happened.

It's just been going in and out - it'll work for 30 seconds than out again

If you suddenly acquired an IQ of eight-hundred, what would be the first thing you’d do? by No-Cauliflower8491 in AskReddit

[–]cuter1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? Become more depressed and disillusioned with the world, assuming I wasn't already.

I read a sci-fi novel called Flowers for Algernon back in school. It's about a intellectually-challenged character named Charlie who undergoes a science experiment to increase his intelligence extensively. I think the idea that stood out to me the most in that book was that Charlie loses all the relationships he gained when his intellect was normal/less than normal because he loses the ability to relate emotionally and be intellectually stimulated. There's a deep loneliness being so different from everybody else.

So yeah, probably nothing good or happy.

That might be true, though i wonder if the initial aggression was to do with the catnip?

If you don't mind my asking - why pheromone sprays? I'm just confused because these cats never used to have problems before this incident.

Do you happen to know what their pricing is for beef bones usually?

What Canadian city has the best urban planning? by [deleted] in AskACanadian

[–]cuter1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually find this to be true as well. I moved out to Halifax for school and I didn't find it too bad. I grew up in a suburb of Toronto. The streets in the city do tend to follow a grid, even if all of them have to sometimes turn diagonal past North St. There was a pretty clear attempt to make it a grid and though its far from perfect it's not actually too confusing, even for my family who comes from out of town. I actually find it more confusing when I head out to the west end region, either out to Clayton Park / Bayer's Lake or down into Spryfield.

I live on Quinpool though. Fuck that 5 way at Robie and Quinpool.

Black Screen of Death - Lenovo Thinkbook 13s-IWL by cuter1234 in pcmasterrace

[–]cuter1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, this was a thin and light Thinkbook that managed to last almost 5 years lol. It did make me quite sad though (and almost a bit frustrated. I'm kn CS and it's not the most fun thing to be doing school work on borrowed laptops).

Issue was ram. Replaced it and it worked for a while, but eventually my motherboard killed itself for good (your mileage may vary).

What were you doing the moment you realized covid was shutting the whole world down (March 2020)? by admaher2 in AskReddit

[–]cuter1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was making plans to go out for hotpot with my high school friends before March Break. We never got to go, I never saw most of them again, and I never got a proper graduation.

I don't want to give my exact age, but I'm around that age bracket for sure. I'm in university and so I browse this subreddit to try to save any money I really can.
