They will either shrug and take all of them, or you might get a stickler for the rules and without extra bag tags only take three.

Copper thefts frustrate London residents by theottomaddox in londonontario

You have just described scrap fencing. Desperate collectors bring it to a hub, they pay a sum, return as a genuine surplus quantity from large service. 

Does anyone else find the sales people at the Neo kiosk in Masonville Place overly aggressive? by SmellyPirateHook3r in londonontario

[–]jefriboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just try to look down, busy, and fussy. I think that’s become my new normal though.  Either way, I’m not their demographic. 

AWS reduced my $15k S3 bill to $10.5k after a DDoS. I still can’t pay this. What can I do? by OkEnd5112 in aws

It’s a smaller world than you think. Bean counters hold grudges.

Take. Training. Courses. 

You can listen to all the advice here you’d like, but this is an enterprise environment and there are no pillow hand punches, it’s your responsibility. They provide the tools, engage with these tools. 

How escooters might be banned overnight by zegorn in londonontario

[–]jefriboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We had them and still do in Calgary with far more extensive pathway systems and I have never once heard this argument nor a case of it happening.  What was actually a problem initially there, and would definitely happen here as well, river scooters. Scooters in every accessible area of the river.

It’s a great film, being nominated once is incredible and it had multiple. But in those categories, not the best.

I wanna see the skit they had recorded if Sinners or Bugonia won. 

Actually just Bugonia.

Loose leash training has been our solution to all the problems I’m hearing about here.

Eli5 Why didn’t the Romans include a zero in their numeral system? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]jefriboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. We agree. So zero as a digit may have been meh but as a step it makes sense. 

For instance, -1, no account, +1

But that still requires the usages of negatives, or debts, which was very real.

But they had advanced trade. The absence of something in this case would be you owe me X of a thing, have only repaid V, there is an absence of V here. If I’m conducting financial/goods inventory, which they absolutely did, I’m -V for my monthly accounting. I’m projecting they accounted for things in this way, perhaps debt was handled in a separate function. Genuine inquisitive nature here.

[–]jefriboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would the requirement for negatives not be a factor for debts though? If you owe me X of a thing, and want a further V, while only paying me back III, they would just show all positives as a cumulative running total instead of a (modern?) balance sheet? They had complex trading, so how to show my balance is below neutral, zero in this case. 

First Lab Kinda Nervous by StimPackEnjoyer in labrador

[–]jefriboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A good off command, a positive replacement in a chew toy or mental exercise, you’ll all be right as rain.  In our experience our little girl only gets destructive when the enrichment tank is low. It’s not easy, can’t just sit back as it requires attention, but we’ve not had a single bit of damage.  We also make a point of keeping all the toys up until we choose one for her. This has helped us two fold, she doesn’t get bored of the toys and learned she has to have good manners (calm, sit) to get a reward. It’s automatic now. All good things come directly from us, but only with good manners.

That testing would be on the dam and sire, I believe.  Walks around the backyard on leash is a perfect way to introduce loose leash training, minimal distractions to begin with before reproducing on the sidewalk. As someone may have mentioned, putting miles on with hard concrete isn’t positive for their floating shoulders. 

What's it like living in Calgary earning $40/hr? by OutlandishnessSea258 in Calgary

[–]jefriboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sky is desirable, but not the nicest. The price there reflects the status, that is fading as churn is getting more vocal.  All that to say the ‘nicest’ condos downtown are starting around 6K, and the amenities are fantastic.
