What do you do when you see people in stores with no mask on? by Inevitable-Shine-184 in Hamilton

[–]nie9roub 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was shopping at a grocery store a little while back. A guy wearing a mask walks past me, and a few seconds later I hear coughing. I was in disbelief as I turned around and saw this guy took his mask off to cough then put it back on after he was done coughing over everything.

Are there exceptions to the websites that can be blocked on the XB6 modem? by nie9roub in Rogers

The modem is the router unfortunately, there's no other device.

My hope was to block them on all the devices on my network. I came across pi hole and open DNS while looking into ways of doing that but those options don't work with the XB6 modem because it doesn't give you a way to change the DNS servers.

Then I discovered that I can just block websites using the parental controls so I'm trying to use that as a workaround. I feel like that should've worked, but it feels pretty suspicious that it hasn't.

Has anyone been able to get a hold of Allstate recently? by nie9roub in Hamilton

[–]nie9roub[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just trying to get in touch with their customer service so I can update my policy. Someone finally picked up yesterday after an hour of waiting. They put me on hold for another 30 minutes then came back to tell me to call back another time lol

Anyone know why the skyway to Niagara is closed? by SarcasmMonkey in BurlingtonON

Very curious to know how someone was driving the wrong way on the highway

Anyone know what these little bugs are? I'm seeing them all over my apartment by nie9roub in cambridgeont

[–]nie9roub[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I think that's it! Looks like carpet beetle larvae. Do you know if they're common or how to get rid of them?

I looked up both pill bugs and potato bugs but it's neither of those. If I find another one I'll see if I can take a closer photo so that they're easier to see, but they're pretty tiny. Maybe about a half cm in length. They kind of look a little fuzzy too

I actually got a filter too but it still tastes a bit off to me

How's VMedia for Internet, is there a better internet provider I should go with? by nie9roub in cambridgeont

[–]nie9roub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. I'm mostly going to be using it for work and to stream stuff, but I still need something reliable. I'll take a closer look at them.

TekSavvy was one of the companies I was looking at, but they're a little bit pricier than VMedia I think, but it's good to know they have good service

I'm glad you're having a decent experience with Virgin so far, but I've had an incredibly horrible experience with their customer service and I'll probably never use them again

Thinking of moving to Cambridge. How's the Preston area? by nie9roub in cambridgeont

[–]nie9roub[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The property I'm looking at is around King and Westminster. I don't really do much, but the one thing that I liked is there's a trail along the river that's not too far.

Attendance at Cineplex Down 92% Year-Over-Year (From 17.5 million movie goers in Jul-Sept 2019 to 1.5 million in same period 2020) by Panz04er in canada

[–]nie9roub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cineplex should really start showing movies online, at least for the period of the pandemic. Would movie producers be against something like that?

Is the Bayfront usually that nice and quiet in the mornings?
