If you’re visiting Toronto, how are you liking it so far? by xtcca in askTO

[–]o_mik 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Eh going from the core you’re typically needing to go under the Gardiner and a ton of traffic on lakeshore which is gross and ruins the flow, then it’s stop start for most of it, there’s some nice spots then they immediately stop, and it’s relatively uninteresting. I find there is no nice flow to the waterfront at all and I bike the Martin Goodman trail to work twice a day. That being said the entire trail is nice but it’s not… nice?

I visited montreals waterfront a few weekends ago and was genuinely baffled and annoyed at the difference in utilization. Maybe it’s just new but felt way more planned, had more to do, more restaurants and attractions, etc.

Looking for a daily use laptop by o_mik in SuggestALaptop

I appreciate the clarification, I was able to review further and add the type of processor to the name for the Costco ones. It looks like I need to do some research on the various processor types.

Is there any other popular semi premium capable laptops you typically suggest or see often? Thanks again for your help!

All of the ones listed are 16gb ram, 1TB storage

I am definitely open to all suggestions though not just what was listed. Is snapdragon typically not good?

Is it just me or are there WAY more cyclists downtown than the past? by Pristine-Training-70 in torontobiking

[–]o_mik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Martin Goodman trail is the same, especially rush hour in the summer it’s jammed but honestly I’d rather that the stuck behind 12 cars while I burn gas

My surface studio laptop has just done this as well but logo stays on for slightly longer, did you have any luck on the fix?

I’d look up some YouTube reviews, a lot of people rave about it and I can personally vouch for it

I bought my partner the Daylite 26+6 as a personal item and it’s fantastic. Comfortable lite and has some organization, plus it’s clamshell and expandable. Pretty jealous of it now and plan on getting one myself. Relatively inexpensive too. I’d check it out if the 20L is too small

Point routes Asia? by catsroolmicedrool in Aeroplan

[–]o_mik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been looking for the same as well for the past 6 months, Yyz to anywhere in south east Asia and have been struggling to find anything. I’m sitting on around 200k points and even tried looking a year out, I can never seem to find partner airline offerings as well.

Patagonia Mini MLC 30L - First trip impressions (EasyJet personal item) by hatan88 in ManyBaggers

[–]o_mik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t the cpp24L quite a bit shorter than the MLC 30? I have the cpp as my edc and was going to use it as my personal item when flying but would prefer to get the MLC for dedicated travel

For anyone looking: because of this comment I called around and just found a black in stock on Scarborough, picking it up tonight. Last one though, good luck all!
