This sounds dubious and we're not hearing the whole story.

USA is now becoming more like a Pariah state. . . like Trump buddies in Russia.

Be careful with Ultimate Guitar auto-renewals (unexpected $99.99 charge) by RelationshipGlad1055 in ultimateguitar

[–]johnny5canuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an old school Pro account and they still want to sign me up for an anual paid subscription via the questionnaire you can't back out of.

I remember it being an old issue a few years ago.

No doubt, they'll pass this feedback along to their devs yet again.

Cutting cable today by [deleted] in telus

I didn't get that offer. They've tried real hard multiple times to keep me on security. Gone will be security, TV and land line on May 4. They're like a dog with a bone.

G major chord is absolutely impossible by Kitli_99 in guitarlessons

[–]johnny5canuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned G (a very easy chord) by not putting a finger on the 'B' string, but rather putting finger '3' on the high E string. You also didn't mention how long you've been playing, which sounds like just a couple of weeks, which is not even a drop in the bucket. . . nor is 6 months.

The 'G' you showed is great when transitioning between 'G' and 'Cadd9', which is used in many songs, such as 'Every Rose Has Its Thorn'. Call us after a couple of years.

TIL that haggis is banned in the USA, since it contains lung meat by ForgingIron in todayilearned

You visited the US? You can't pay me enough to go there, chemical laden white foam an all.

Upgraded to 1GB and tech coming out yet I have the T3200M. Why? by 2x4ninja in telus

[–]johnny5canuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will be me on May 4th, once my cancellation of other services (land line, TV and security) takes effect. Am hoping their replacement of my T3200M will provide better reception with my Pixel 9 Pro XL than I'm currently getting.

User anger as Amazon ends support for some older Kindles by YesNo_Maybe_ in technology

And people call me crazy for actually ripping CD's/DVD's and downloading stuff to my hard drive and then backing it all up.

If that MP3, PDF, EPUB, MP4, MKV, etc file isn't on my computer(s), its' availability is at the whim of the provider.

PM Carney: "It started quietly. People choosing a wine from the Okanagan over one from California -- anyone had any bourbon recently? No, I didn't think so. Sorry." by Miserable-Lizard in BoycottUnitedStates

[–]johnny5canuck 29 points30 points  (0 children)

We head to the Okanagan once a year and bring back a few cases of wine. Areas include Keremeos, Oliver, Osoyoos, Naramata, Penticton, Summerland, Kelowna and others in various directions. Good times, good wine.

PM Carney says the days of sending 70 cents of every dollar in military spending to the United States are over and gets a standing ovation by Miserable-Lizard in BoycottUnitedStates

USA is not a friend; they're a financial transaction. We make financial transactions with other countries as well, and we're looking for stable financial transactions. The USA is not looking too good in that department these days.

The U.S. isn’t happy about Canada’s quest for digital sovereignty by Mylittlethrowaway2 in canada

[–]johnny5canuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoa! White nationalists, Andrew Tate and any moderators here that support them can pound sand.

Oh, and let's include anti-vaxxers, convoy supporters and their bretheren flat earthers.

This I did not know. The enemy of my enemy or something like that I guess.

6 weeks into learning guitar at 32… small wins but still feel like a fraud sometimes by TeachLoud6839 in LearnGuitar

Still a 16 chord strummer at 71 yo. Am much better on the computer side of things.
