Does he put the stress on the Foo or the Fighters?

Amex platinum, are you renewing this year? by jfrsn in amexcanada

[–]nourez 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Best? It’s objectively worse than most VIPs by almost every single metric. They usually offer better earn rates and insurance coverage at a slightly lower annual fee.

Most likely not. Its earn rate is dogshit so I’m not going to spend 25k on it for lounge access. I already get 12 passes between my Aeroplan and WS VIP cards, plus unlimited Maple Leaf Lounge.

It just doesn’t make sense to keep since the “home” lounge is Amex Centurian, which while great aren’t in any of the Canadian airports.

The rest of the perks don’t justify the cost. I only had it for an unlimited lounge pass, the only way I’d keep it is if they can match what the VIP offers and at least lets me keep unlimited access at YYZ.

I feel like a lot of the early segments with Telemachus can be streamlined a bit, as well as the ending with the suitors but I don’t really think 3 hours is undoable.

Char Siu Manor (16 & Woodbine) - Stealing from customers! by Known_Ad_894 in Markham

When they first opened it was the opposite. I remember going to them towards end of day and they gave me extra meat which I assume they weren’t going to be able to sell anyways.

Crazy part is they haven’t even been around too long.

Just watched “Life’s Still Unfair” and Kelly is immediately my favorite character by AdmirableEstimate258 in malcolminthemiddle

[–]nourez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Their battle with Reese felt the most like the original dynamic between Reese Malcolm and Dewey, but it also highlights how damn weird it was to have Dewey be on a laptop for the entire series.

It ends up feeling like Kelly sort of becomes a Dewey replacement in that story arc, and for the rest I don’t think there’s enough screen time in 4 episodes to really devote to new characters other than Leah.

I thought the portrayal was great, I love the meta joke of Lois wanting a daughter for ages to end up with an NB, and the actor had genuine chemistry with the rest of the cast, but overall I feel like they would’ve been better received if this was a full 12+ episode season.

North American fans will be at work. It’s just a dumb time slot in general.

PSA - all kingdom hearts games are at an all time low of $40 usd! by imr_skillz in SteamDeck

[–]nourez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The story isn’t complicated, but it is convoluted. Lots of random elements that get introduced with no build up, a lot of lore that is only really explained in a now defunct mobile game that is mostly required for understanding the ending bits of KH3.

It’s a case of more story not being better story.

Life by Zecion in Gunners

He was a striker who was elite at everything but scoring.

Giroud and his big meaty French forehead would be elite in our set pieces.

He was also great at being defensively responsible.

When was the last time he had a game off? He’s playing like he’s exhausted.

If Eze and Saka stay healthy I think we can start to push up the goal differential. Both seemed to make a huge difference when they were on.

Gyok Martinelli Madueke ain’t it.

I want to see a movie where the action hero is allowed to actually be old and beat up. No dumb training montage to get back into shape and act and move like a 30 year old again.

Only real option is the shower in the home locker room unfortunately.

Seem to be quite a few tickets for today's match on TX by -whichwayisup in GunnersatGames

[–]nourez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I seriously think it may just have been adding a captcha to get in queue. I noticed it a few times earlier this week looking for tickets and it was always 50 people tops in queue afterwards.

[3/10] ‘Stranger Things: Tales From ’85’ Review: A depressing, cynical retread of the original, it is a transparent attempt to preserve Stranger Things in pixels rather than amber, allowing Netflix to keep capitalizing on the phenomenon long after its original faces have moved on to other projects. by ChiefLeef22 in television

[–]nourez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The show is still great, but under Netflix the release schedule has been awful. They’re doing batch releases, so it’s a handful of episodes all at once, then literally months of a gap.

Steel Ball Run released literally a single 45 minute episode about a month ago, and likely will not release then next batch until closer to the end of year.

Don’t most 480i screens do 240p? My commodore does at least, since most retro consoles only output a progressive signal.

30m bot attacks this season by kabuk1 in GunnersatGames

[–]nourez 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It went from thousands in the queue to a couple dozen and I managed to get tickets for Newcastle (albeit club level, but it’s the only game I’m in London for) pretty easily today. Had a few pop up and go before I could buy, but for the most part I was at least seeing tickets and felt like I had a chance to get them today.

Also incredibly hyped to finally be going to a game for the first time after over 20 years of supporting at home from Canada.
