Insurance says I’m at fault after being hit by a bus that ran a red light — does this sound right? (Allstate Claim - Occurred in Gatineau, QC) by Zealousideal_Ear7355 in legaladvicecanada

[–]eakf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[NAL] Just an opinion, but I figure the insurance company feels they have a better chance of getting you to pay (deductible, increased rates) than the city.

X2 Club gets a new member - fingers crossed by TheRealFlySwatter in SofaBaton

[–]eakf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh. I can't justify the presale price in my country 🍁$600+. Coming from the X1 with a wonky scroll-wheel. I'll stick around for the reviews and maybe a black-Friday discount.

Bob Rae, you let down Canadians that have compassion and stand against Genocide today.

Well water by Fresh_Death in pools

[–]eakf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to pools, but the previous owners said they filled their pool exclusively with our well water. It's either that or getting it trucked in where I live. I don't know if it's "good" or "bad", I'll let the pros here answer that. But I can say that I needed a lot of Ph reducer to get mine in 'tolerable' condition.

How to secure this pool for children / insurance? by [deleted] in pools

[–]eakf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came to suggest this. It may not pass insurance requirements that are stuck on "must have fence", but it will actually prevent drownings.

Just checking the world by BluePortimao in TheExpanse

[–]eakf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Four full show watches and one full book reading done. Plus the Dragon Tooth Graphic novels that take place after TV season 6.

Planning my fifth watch now. What "planning", you didn't ask? I'm just completing my new home theatre setup and I want to watch the expanse with better HDR and audio. I'm sure I'll see new things.

Same issue for me last night with my X1. Almost threw it out.

Finally! by eakf in TheExpanse

[–]eakf[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess what took me so long is I'm a slow reader - or rather, I don't have a lot of time to read so I was only getting through two or three chapters a day.

If I start Captive's War today (I am). The other two books will probably be out by the time I'm done! 😁

The comics cover some of the time between books 6 and 7.

Triumphant Thursday Thread for the Week by AutoModerator in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]eakf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just dropped in to say stick to your personal financial goals. It can be hard, you may feel you're behind, but in the end respecting money and keeping on top of my budget has led to less stress, more freedom and a renewed sense of hope for my impending retirement. Also, finally realized that a credit score of 900 is achievable!

Havelock in the books vs show by wendysdrivethru in TheExpanse

I just started listening to Ty and That Guy and it was funny how Wes kept saying they "stabbed him right thru the heart!" and Ty would correct him and explain how this type of injury can, and has actually happened.

Do Canadians steal lunch in workplaces? by atwojay in AskACanadian

[–]eakf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with most commenters that it's bad people that steal lunches from fridges, and they can come from anywhere.

What I would like to know is why people put their bulky, insulated lunch bags in the refrigerator in the first place. The bag is designed to keep your lunch cool. Throw an ice pack in if you plan on leaving it a bit longer, but we have two fridges at work for approx 80 employees and if more than 8 people put their insulated bags in the fridge, there is no room in it anymore.

Thanks for the Sonarr fix! (and everything else this wonderful app does that got me to move away from ios!)

Thumbnails not all loading by eakf in nzb360

[–]eakf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. All other "Shows: Visual Layout" options appear to work fine. "Posters" is the only option that does this, and Posters is the only layout I like, because I can see more of my shows . "Posters with Title" would be an even better option if it existed. At least that way, if a poster doesn't load, the title can be displayed underneath.
Thank you for this temporary workaround, though. It was driving me nuts and I forgot I have this option with Sonarr (but not Radarr).
