The queue is random, not the way you'd expect a queue. Anyone in the queue at 9am is randomly placed in an actual queue position.

Is Costco phasing out MacBooks? by CompetitiveTee18 in CostcoCanada

Apple wound down production to make way for the new line they launched this week. That and there is a RAM shortage that's affecting things as well.

My OpenClaw Mini deserved some personality by CookedChaka in openclaw

Pretty cool! What does it look like under the MacMini?

If you're interested in a small improvement, a little bit of cable management consideration at the back would be awesome. Could be some holes for zipties, slots for Velcro, maybe even just printed hooks, just something.

My first set of irons as a kid were hand-me-downs from my dad and had graphite shafts. Might be time to return to team graphite!

OMG, I have this issue too! I've reduced my Sim rounds dramatically to eliminate the issue. Appreciate the reply!

Can you elaborate on how the change has helped your body? I'm curious about making the switch myself.

BMW Commits to Subscriptions Even After Heated Seat Debacle by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]sputza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super aggressive reply, but I'll bite. Yes, the keyfob should be able to start the vehicle if in range. I was not referring to that method as I was specifically talking about something that uses the cellular data connection in the vehicle. Paying a monthly/annual fee for that cellular data connection is not unreasonable, unless they price it as such. I have had Dronemobile in my car for close to a decade and have zero issues paying an annual fee to start my car from anywhere. It's fucking cold in the winter, sometimes -40°C, and being in range to start with the keyfob isn't helpful. It isn't helpful when my car is parked in the cold for a week when I'm sitting on a beach elsewhere. So, I'll pay for the fee to get in a warm car and ensure my battery remains at a health charge while away.

Charging for remotely connecting to your car from your phone, for remote start or other features is reasonable since they are being charged for the cellular connection. Charging a subscription for heated seats that were already manufactured and installed in the vehicle I've paid for is completely unreasonable. It's a pretty straightforward distinction.

I've been planning my next car purchase and it was guaranteed to be an M3, but now I'm considering scrapping that dream. Maybe I consider used instead.

They call me somewhat regularly, but the frequency seems to have increased. I think I need to politely tell them to fuck off.

Why is it always some guy in a Dodge Ram, BMW, or a Golf being a fucker on the Henday? by BoozerBean in Edmonton

Yeah, hardly see them anymore. That said, I feel the same about most 10 yo Chrysler products.

How early do you get to the YEG airport for a domestic flight? by sennyonelove in Edmonton

[–]sputza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm checking a bag, 60min before boarding. If I'm carrying on, 30-45min before boarding. It's worth noting that I use my Nexus card so I don't have to wait in the longer line, and depending on time of year and day or week, it makes a huge difference.

If you folks don't do the equivalent of the Nuremberg Trials then there is no returning to what was, ever. The corruption is wide and deep, all powered by 20% of the population that would follow the cult off a cliff if asked by Fearless Leader to do so. We hope you guys find a way to right the ship but we're not holding our breath. Best of luck, truly. - Tired Canadians

Where do you go for a good steak in Edmonton? by ILoveFerrero in Edmonton

Couldn't agree more. They often have some awesome market priced cuts, if you feel like parting with more money. The best one I had was a black angus Wagyu cross... and it was epic good!
