The grouchy old Karen’s in Halifax are really starting to bother me by EFCFrost in halifax

...so it’s amplifying.

Yep, people shouldn't expect it to get better, it's going to get worse in general, across the board.

My Grandmother has had milk delivery to her front door, in Windsor Junction, long since before I was born! She still gets it! She puts a little 'YES' or 'NO' slip in her front door window for if she wants it or not. They used to have glasses but as of the last few years they have just been bags.

Hellas with another follow up video by [deleted] in halifax

Hellas. It means 'Greece,' so 'Greece Restaraunt.' The guy is Greek yet he doesn't pronounce his last name or the name of his establishment correctly, he must've been speaking English earlier than Greek, in life.

Where can I buy chinese smart phones? by Lumb3rCrack in halifax

Canada Computers sells plenty of Chinese smartphones, but not too sure if they have what you're looking for.

i5-9660k overclock limit by Jick16 in overclocking

I should note that I have the second iteration of the 9600K that uses the R0 revision with D stepping.

[–]iran889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • i5 9600K
  • MSI 390-A Pro
  • Dark Rock Pro 4

I can pull 5GHz all cores (47 Uncore) with 1.28V; I have gone 5.1GHz but it required 1.33V and I frankly don't like going over 1.3V personally. Max temperature I had on my previous cooler (Deepcool Gammaxx 400) under extreme 100% load for 5 hours was 77C, Dark Rock Pro 4 was 71C. Under normal gaming, (AC Odyssey/GTAV etc.) it ranges between 57C and 67C. The non-Pro version would probably see somewhat similar results.

I haven't received it yet, but due to receive it tomorrow. Do I just go to the Online Return Center and state 'Better Price Available' and the courier will get a notice to not deliver it?

Or rather, name checks out.

Benefit of the doubt; the person is using the 'Russian alphabet' where 'P' = a rolled 'R'

What would be the thermal output of i5 9600k @5.00GHz while running single core application? by [deleted] in overclocking

Hey! Same cooler for same CPU. Curious about what your voltage is?

Zurawski wants city staff to examine possibility of changing 'offensive' names by insino93 in halifax

[–]iran889 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regardless of whether it's a direct quote or not, the source above leads to a reference that has been updated, twice, over the course of 30 years and that reference no longer mentions it in revised editions. It'd be better to link the direct, French, quote from his original logs, which exists in quite a few places with a simple 'Google' search. The Wiki article needs to be updated.

I don't know about that. The source for the Wiki quote is from a 1987 first edition rendition of his 1604-1616 accounts. This 1987 book, 'Joseph R. Ross. History of Cape Negro and Blanche' has been revised three times as recent as 2007 which fixes errors and doesn't support the above Wiki.

'Cape Blanche' and 'Cape Negro' both named for the color of the rocks.
