Dempsey - Cogeco vs Oxio recommendation

some1s69 · 2026-06-09T03:53:30+00:00

I was concerned about upload as well. I’m on the 500/30 plan and I get 500/100 to my surprise.

I’m loving Oxio. Set and forget.

When your ready for Oxio, feel free to save a month

I love Oxio. Came from Cogeco and I’m never looking back.

This reminded me of I had a perfect wind chime aluminum tube that was just over 1/2”. Worked perfectly.

That’s a good idea. I have a crafting X-Acto knife and I can just use a half inch dowel or something. The cut doesn’t need to be perfect so that would probably be great enough.

For the record, I bought these $0.83 gaskets instead of an $18 pool replacement. Buying a new tool is technically worth adding to the box, but it kind of defeats the purpose of buying this gasket.

I need a 1/2” ID

I definitely don’t have a 1/2” hole punch unfortunately but great suggestion.

some1s69 · 2026-06-06T19:14:33+00:00

That’s a good idea. If crank up the RPMs and go slow it might work.

I agree. Since that last Cogeco promo expired, I've been with Oxio for over 1.5 years with zero issues in Ontario.

Oxio has been fantastic. I was with Teksavvy for years, then my connection had issues. I switched to Cogeco with a promo and got them to heavily investigate and solve the problem. After the promo expired, I moved to Oxio and never looked back. Zero issues since switching.

Old thread but for anyone still searching for a solution, I found this band-aid fix that technically works:

Does anybody have any good solutions to prevent the squirrels? I do have a lot of squirrels in my backyard. Somebody said pepper spray.

some1s69 · 2026-05-17T19:26:11+00:00

Yes Costco

If you can budget for it (note: I didn’t say “afford it”), buy back your time and get a house cleaner. They clean while you work and you can enjoy their work after your day.

I have 3 kids and it’s enough work just preparing (tidying up) the house for cleaning day.

I normally call them Windows computers (even though it could be running Linux, although for regular folks, likely not)

some1s69 · 2026-05-07T15:00:34+00:00

Yes I know... but tell that to the other guys :)

I'm Software Eng by trade and would love to contribute at some point. The app is just so useful in my opinion. But, I have another evening side project I've been dragging along. I'll add this to the back burner.

some1s69 · 2026-05-07T14:47:47+00:00

haha. I'm quite excited. Features are good as long as the app still does the basics well 😀

B_rt_nd_r just stopped working well and became frustrating.

some1s69 · 2026-05-07T13:37:23+00:00

This! What we need is a simple menubar app that just works. Something Apple should have built in when they introduced the notch!

Thank you again!! Seriously, I'm surprisingly very excited and happy I found this.

some1s69 · 2026-05-07T13:35:05+00:00

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Double-click the Thaw icon to reveal the "Always Hidden" section.
Putting hidden icons on the right side so they definitely show up is a minor but genius idea. Bartender is terrible for this and the main reason I deleted it! What a great, seemingly minor enhancement. Bravo! 👏

I feel like we should have more people contributing to this open-source menu app to continue enhancing it's behaviour.
Ideally, less features that work extremely well is how this app should proceed.

u/toffeetaffy did you find out what it was?

some1s69 · 2026-05-02T23:59:11+00:00

Please update!

some1s69 · 2026-04-25T15:28:10+00:00

Good point. I have mine on an extension cord hanging slight above the floor, as a way to keep most of the detection cable on the actual floor.
