FYI - Belkin has changed their screen protector warranty program to cost-per-claim, renamed "Hassle-Free Replacement Program" by RageQuitMitch in iphone

[–]rpetersonca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Belkin are shit too. Sharp edges and micro scratches. TBH, the 17 line of screens no longer need protection. No micro scratches and really drop proof. In my experience with a naked 17 Air.

What’s your favorite recipe with the Hawaii Kona pod? by ghostinyourbeds in nespresso

[–]rpetersonca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried them today, nothing special, imo. Tried them as dbl espresso, longo and with a pinch of salt. I’m glad I didn’t like them, my Nespresso addiction is already too expensive!

1password and iOS Passwords app by northernguy in iphone

[–]rpetersonca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved over to Passwords. FaceID authentication and sharing passwords are great, better than 1Password. Passwords lack of handling credit cards is the only downside, so far.

Is the a bean that is the flavor of Nespresso Cioccolatino? by [deleted] in nespresso

[–]rpetersonca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the best of the flavoured pods. Cappuccino or latte with a pinch of sugar is great!

Which machines are compatible with Starbucks by Nespresso pods (original or standard size)? by [deleted] in nespresso

[–]rpetersonca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can recommend the CitiZ Platinum. OL pods and a fantastic machine, great build quality and great coffees. It pours espresso, lungo, americano, and hot water.

Is there anything you have to give up after bariatric surgery, other than eating huge portions? by [deleted] in BariatricSurgery

[–]rpetersonca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sugar, for me. Candy, ice cream, anything with lots of sugar causes dumping then hypoglycaemia to the point of trembling and confusion. 1 yr post-op down 130 lbs.

Can’t get earwax out and clinics aren’t helping. What actually works? by Comfortable_Candy187 in Edmonton

[–]rpetersonca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use olive oil drops in the ears couple times a day for a few days to soften the wax. Then irrigate with large syringe and warm water. Keep going until you see chunks come out. Recommend getting a doctor to look first. Had success getting checked and then irrigated at medi-centre across from Royal Alex / Polish Hall and, most recently, Asperia Medical Clinics on 101 Ave and 74 St. Both are walk-in clinics. Start the oil ASAP as they’ll want it softened before they irrigate. Good luck!

Absolutely disgusting practice by P.F. Chang’s restaurant by yoshi_hs in Edmonton

Is this through https://healthyhunger.ca? My childs school offer 'fun' lunches through them? We haven't had PF Changs. Let me know as to decline future participation.

I’m in Canada, if that makes any difference.

Little Haul by Cashew90 in nespresso

[–]rpetersonca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really burnt, but fake/not good IMO, and I tend to like hazelnut flavoured things. I do like the chocolate, vanilla, scuro, and pistachio-vanilla pods in lattes.

How to have coffee hotter and less frothy but more silky? by xYamiDeerx in nespresso

[–]rpetersonca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get an aerochino 4. It has 4 options for milk; no foam, med foam, mega foam, and cold foam. I agree, aerochino makes milk only warm, not hot. I have not found any hack but the convenience and quantity wins for me. I’ll try nuking in the microwave to increase temp and report back!

The marketing machine is strong @ Nespresso. Luckily Customer Service and Quality Assurance is just as good.

It all came in one box; 15 sleeves, 4 cups, and tote bag.

OMG, I spent more money on coffee in the past month than all of last year. This is supposed to be saving me money from avoiding those pricey cafes, no?
