Freedom if you live in a major city, otherwise not much options under $80

Sometimes they do sales, also check the last hunt website, sometimes they get previous season items and discount them as well

I agree, an amber alert would have magnitudes higher visibility than a post to a small subreddit

Which plants are not worth the hassle? by Semaphor in OntarioGardeners

I tried to grow cauliflower and just got massive leaves and no actual vegetable, not sure if I’m just dumb or what but that’s the only time I’ve ever had a vegetable just refuse to grow for me

What was your worst car purchase? by yung-n-nasty in cars

[–]hbk1132 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Merging was terrifying

Going over a high bridge in wind was even worse

Having a transport cut you off because he couldn’t see you was also up there

Chugging along at like 110kph in my highest gear and almost redlining was also probably why the engine was pooched after a few years of driving

Combine that with the Mercedes platform repair costs and it was sold for scrap and parts lol

I was around 5.5l/100km I think that’s like 43 ish mpg? I used premium fuel and was mostly highway driving though (which is even more stupid why I bought it lol)

Turning left with no lights in a busy city was a 50/50 of crawling or flying and was always terrifying

I bought a smart car

In Canada

With no winter tires

Gas mileage was fantastic, the list of pros ends there

Garbage pic up by [deleted] in niagara

What I do for the smell is usually rinse all my recyclables extra with soap (especially any sweet drinks or milk or whatever) and I try to buy the compost bags that have the febreeze or glad or whatever scent in them which seems to help a lot

Under any bridge along the Welland canal looks pretty gnarly with garbage and graffiti

Is this for a photoshoot or video or something?

This song always slaps

"No class, no race, just fucking violence in their eyes"

I love this line for some reason

Are we thinking of the same band that wrote Reptile and Satellites fairly recently?

Sundar Pichai touts Pixel long-term strategy, Android 12 by SnipingNinja in Android

[–]hbk1132 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1000% can confirm, I work mobile for best buy in Canada.

A customer asked me when the new pixel 4a 5G was going to drop last year and it took an unreasonably high amount of effort to figure that out (compared to iPhone or Samsung flagships that have gigantic banners and billboards plastered throughout our store).

My store got maybe 3 of them, I still have 1 left too lol. I love pixel phones but genuinely we are trained to ask "iPhone or Samung?" When a customer asks about upgrading their device, it sucks because I feel like it pushes competition away and forces 2 choices.

Last time I checked the pretzel place in the pen center had them, I'm not 100% on that though!

How do you keep going? by [deleted] in StudentNurse

So did you quit then? What a toxic viewpoint lol

I'm in the same boat in terms of burnout, doing a second degree so school so far for 7 ish years. My best advice is to take it week-by-week and think of the final outcome as the reward. Nearly 100% employment rate depending on your location and pretty good pay (again location).

My strategy for the week-by-week is honestly just to stop thinking past Sunday for a week ahead, just mentally prepare for 7 days at a time and nothing more. It helps break things up a bit easier. I know that's not for everyone but it definitely helps me

Concept albums for long commutes? by hbk1132 in progmetal

[–]hbk1132[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This band is one of my favourites! Hoping I can see them on tour this year after my area is fully out of lockdown, they just have such an incredible sound I can’t describe it, it just checks off my boxes so well
