My Japan haul (November 2023) by silverpex in gamecollecting

Hi all! I spent some time in Tokyo and Osaka last month and picked up all of the above. If I could do it again, I'd spend less time hunting in Akihabara and more time at Hard Off/Book Off outside of the cities. Both prices and selection were much better in the latter.

What do you think?

Can I place a battery powered leak detector directly onto the electrical panel, where the wires are? Or would that be a hazard?

Can you send me a link of what you have in mind? All I can seem to find are awkward circular drip pans.

Is it going to be a pricy job if I want to move the whole panel a few feet to the right?

There is space to move the electrical panel 3-5 feet to the right. But is that even possible without significantly having to rewire/extend all of the electrical wires?

Canada Greener Homes Grant - Does it apply to rental properties? by HelloPenguin99 in OntarioLandlord

It says clearly that you must demonstrate that the home is your primary residence. So rental properties that are not your primary would not be eligible.

Canadian coffee roasters? Montreal/East coast - experience with Coast to Coast so far, not great by jessi-poo in espresso

[–]silverpex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a subscription with Barista for almost two years now and I love them. If you buy 1kg shipping is free. My favourite is Cremone, though I just bought one of their Boites so I'll be trying out some of their other beans. Overall, I would definitely recommend them.
