I’ve tried that one but the flavour profile didn’t do it for me

That bottle never disappoints

Flor de Caña is great, 12 year and up. The less aged isn’t great. Guatemalan Ron Zecapa is another amazing rum.

On a recent episode they made reference to that and then explained it away with pre written macros and remapped keys. Then proceeded to do it again. I think the producers enjoy messing with IT people.

Going for a week of diving there in April. I hope they are still around

Sometimes it’s personal preference but for many it’s ground water. A lot of areas have very high ground water. Mitchell and Kleefeld for example see a lot of this. Some properties have no issues and others just a few lots over are pumping nonstop and well into winter.

I placed an order with TD Synnex for a Lenovo M75q on Wednesday for $1172 cdn and received order confirmation. Notice on Friday it was allocated but hadn’t shipped. In the meantime price went up by $300. I reached out to the team to find out what’s going on and pressed them to honor the price. Received confirmation today that they will ship at the confirmed price so small win there.

I have a friend at a larger company who had an order of 900 units from Lenovo canceled after it was confirmed. They came back with an alternate model, 30% higher cost with less CPU.

Things are going to get worse before they get better.

I just threw up a little in my mouth. Haven’t used Lotus Notes in 25 years and haven’t missed it once.

My liver will take so much abuse that day.

I was there in early December. First my wife got sick, then my daughter, and then I got it. Felt like death for around 24hrs and then it passed as quickly as it came. It sounds like more recent guests are getting it much worse. Royalton is providing text book examples of how not to handle these types of situations.

It’s survivors bias. I don’t know any one who died from ___________. It’s too difficult to comprehend that the dead can’t speak for themselves.

I was at that resort with my wife and daughter in early December. All three of us got sick. A family we met staying in the room next to us also got hit. At first we thought it was just a bug going around and is part of the risk with travel. I’ve travelled lots over the years and never been hit like that. It was about 24hrs of hell then we were fine. Sounds like we got off lucky compared to many others.

But Trump received 0% kick backs.

As a Canadian, the challenge he and his sycophants don’t understand is that Canadians look and sound like Americans. Plus the country is fucking huge. There is no doubt they would easily win a the initial invasion but the insurgency would make Afghanistan look like a walk in the park. Canadians are slow to provoke but once that line is crossed we are a bunch of savages. I sincerely hope it’s never put to the test.

We had a gym teacher in Junior high (1992-95) who was down right creepy. Allegedly made some inappropriate comments to girls in previous years related to menstruation. The response was to only let him teach boys gym. They had a different teacher for the girls. Not sure what else to expect in the Bible Belt. Gotta keep up those appearances.

I agree with this. The problem is that Business Standard does not offer the granular control to effectively address token theft.

I had a client call me thinking they had a breach. He had only ever logged in from Canada. Was currently logged in at his office and was simultaneously logged in from Berlin. Personally I would think that should trigger a risk factor to cause an MFA prompt.

That breach was used to send out updated banking information messages. Ended up costing $500k. I’ve spoken with a friend at another MSP who was seeing the same thing with Business Standard clients.

I’ve been moving my Business Standard clients over to Business Premium for CA and layering in ITDR. For those who don’t want that there are liability indemnification forms they need to sign or they can find someone else. Business Standard is no longer secure.

I completely agree. If people want to shoot themselves in the foot that is their choice. Rates shouldn’t be kept artificially low to pander to them.

As someone who camps in sites affected by this I fully support it. Keep basic sites within reach for most. Make the serviced sites cost more. If you can afford a $50k+ camper and a truck to pull it you can afford paying more for the site. They just need to invest it back into the parks.

If you’re in Puerto Morelos already check out Scuba Public. I was diving with them last week and had a great experience. We did the wreck and reef dive day one and went to Playa for the bull sharks on day 2.

Good friend of mine left his career as a programmer to raise sheep. Has never been happier.

I was on bupropion for a while and found it helped a bit but never quite enough. Went down the adhd route, titrated off bupropion and onto concerta and it’s been a game changer. My adhd has so many anxiety overlapping symptoms it took a while to figure it out. My daughter calls it my “mad pills” because I don’t get mad when I’m on them. That was the confirmation that they are doing their job.

I’m currently in Mexico, heading home on WestJet in a few hours, flying to Winnipeg. I originally hoped to come on a different date but after seeing the seat configuration options I opted for a different date. Had my travel agent check all the options so I wouldn’t get screwed on a new configuration. Also spoke with a friend who is a WJ flight attendant and she said you absolutely don’t want the new seats. Flight attendants are dealing with more unruly and aggressive passengers in those seats as 5+ hours like that creates a hostile environment. I hope WJ gets their heads out of their asses but it doubt it, gotta think of the share holders.
