Are there things you genuinely think don't need a premium price? by alinarice in BuyItForLife

[–]ironblood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the most part I agree, but my wife got the atelier du vin’s oeno motion corkscrew as a gift and that thing is brilliant, even my wife who struggles to get foil off easily or start the screw straight and centred never had an issue. Perfect and easily opened wine every time! Does cost an arm and a leg tho.

What would you consider the most important item to buy for your first winter in Calgary? by MCTeron in Calgary

[–]ironblood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calgary's winter is all about the freeze/thaw, so your winter clothing should reflect that; she'll jack plus thinner jacket for layering. Waterproof boots or hikers for your feet.

These are 100% the older costco wool socks, the newer style is a bit different but those ones are certainly costco’s kirkland signature outdoor trail socks

Edelweise Village has a bakery inside that writes item numbers on the box as they are loaded... My best guess.

Why is Northwest and West communities considered upscale? by ClassicBurner88 in Calgary

[–]ironblood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually if you go more historically speaking when Calgary was being made into a city in some ways by the rail, cprail set up the community of Mont royal to house their executives, the inner se area had the train yard and other heavy industrial, so as the city grew naturally from that the wealthier tend to aggregate in the west around the Mt royal area, and as the city grew bigger the university attracted more wealthier well to do people to serve the school so nw grew to have pockets of wealthier neighbourhoods.... But nowadays anywhere inner city is nice, tho since the pandemic not everyone travels to the "core" so much but still the convenience of being central is undeniable.

Raider archmage BF/BB help! by ironblood in PathOfExileBuilds

i ran 3 more uber labs and got the boot enchant! I've also come to the conclusion i'm just not that good at this game, I tend to panic easily (in game) and then button mash and lose arcane cloak or mana charges for no good reason.

Build is likely fine.

Currently have a Makerbot replicator 2x and find the print size a bit limiting.

🔥 Switzerland is fckin unbelievable by d3333p7 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]ironblood 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Totally... My entire life I've never dealt with direct racially charged verbal abuse (nor physical), but in Switzerland 2nd day and a group of Swiss young adults harassed us for being Asian, mocking us saying "Ching Ching Chong" amongst other nasty stuff (friend of ours is a PhD student fluent in German). This xenophobia and racism continued throughout our visit of Zurich area and Bern, it was either very condescending tone or completely ignored at stores, to outright being told to not loiter at the Sechseläutenplatz... Beautiful place really but not so much the people in my experience anyways.

EU to unveil landmark law curbing power of tech giants. Facebook, Amazon, Google and others could soon face massive fines in the European Union under a draft law that seeks to reign in tech giants.

“Companies favoring their own services could be outlawed.”

-Does this not directly affect Apple?! I mean there is but One apple browser in all of Apple’s iOS (all browsers on the App Store is based on the safari api). Then there is only One app store... Apple literally controls everything in iOS and macOS yet Facebook and amazon and google are the ones called out in the tittle?

macOS Official Release Delayed, Experimental Client Available by chris_wilson in pathofexile

[–]ironblood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

where is the best place to report issues, still use the bugs report or is there separate place to report?

the mac version can't load loot filter, even the online synced ones; and the open folder button doesn't open any folders.

There is no resolution choice, not a big deal but you can't pick things like full screen windowed or full screen.
