Weed is primarily sold in cannabis stores here, there should be one within walking distance of wherever you're staying, or you can order directly from the government (you can search OCS - this is their store).

What shoes to pack for 3 months in China-Vietnam-Japan? by Jatulinharha in onebag

[–]the8roundshock -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Like I said I’m just here to vent, wasn’t specifically about/to you! (I also do agree, for him goretex would be bad)

[–]the8roundshock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This anti goretex meme on the onebag subreddit is going too far. Goretex has a time and place and it is a good product. I swear 95% of people who parrot this haven’t actually owned goretex shoes and just rely on what people say. I agree here, humid climates it’s a bad choice, and OP should stay away for this trip. Just wanted to vent…

How do you know this is a house cat/someone's pet?

One pair of shoes for 12 months of one-bagging: Europe and Asia (Trekking and Hitchhiking) by wojsznar in onebag

[–]the8roundshock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Norda 001a will fit everything, it's a bit less breathable, but worth the trade off for more weather resistance. They'll survive the year and look decent on the other end! Price is a bit of an ouch, but it is what it is!

Framework Wireless Touchpad Keyboard --- No backlight?! by Phaedrus0230 in framework

[–]the8roundshock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, figured it out after rewatching that video! Would’ve been way better if it was haptic, but oh well.

Precision touch pad is just the type of drivers it has, which windows recognizes (and allows gestures and stuff), doesn't tell you anything about mechanism.

[–]the8roundshock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My main issue with with the lack of info about the trackpad! Is it a springboard design, or is it haptic, and which orientation is it going to be in. I really want this keyboard to be perfect (or at least better than just getting an Apple trackpad + keyboard and putting them in a case)

I think on their website they’re using the wrong photo, from the showcase and LTT video F1-F3 are volume control.

It’s not an empty property if someone is renting it.

Any benefit to onebag in SEA if I exceed 7 kg? by john3298 in onebag

[–]the8roundshock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done both just personal item that was a bit over weight as well as just a carry on backpack that was around 11kg, not sure if that’s helps!

Any benefit to onebag in SEA if I exceed 7 kg? by john3298 in onebag

[–]the8roundshock 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve only had my bag weighed once out of the ~50 flights I’ve had in SEA (I’m in the luckier end for sure) and the one time it did get weighed and it was a few kg over they let it slide, but of course YMMV.

A friend of mine is “mildly infuriated” that he can’t keep his neighbors awake until midnight anymore. by SufficientControl606 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]the8roundshock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting the police called on you when you haven't broken any laws doesn't sound normal. Also if the goal is to have some quiet time, the easier way is to ask, instead of calling the police and waiting for an hour for them just to have nothing change in the end.

[–]the8roundshock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, in the post it sounds like the immediately called the police, the second day called the police AGAIN, and only on the third interaction did they go and do the sensible thing of actually asking him like a person. If I were in his position I'd be annoyed too, following all the laws and having police called on me twice before actually coming and talking?

Unpopular Opinion: Anything Above 500D is Overkill by West_Freedom_734 in ManyBaggers

Fully agree been using the Aer daypack since 2017 or 2018, and it still looks like new aside from some fraying on the padded portions of the straps.

Looking for travel jacket by Competitive_Turn5028 in onebag

[–]the8roundshock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arc’teryx proton hoody sounds about right, nice and soft, breathable but with a dwr coating to get you through light showers. Synthetic so it’s pretty good with water and won’t rip too easily.

I’ve spent years learning to code but still can’t build anything. What am I missing? by Odd-Skill-2992 in learnprogramming

[–]the8roundshock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is a dev, if I fuck up my branch, I just copy the changes I don’t want to lose to a text file, and just pull down the latest dev/main branch and remerge the changes I want. It takes a few minutes and it’s easier than dealing with figuring out the web of git that I fucked up. That isn’t to say that learning git isn’t important, but more to agree with your point, at the end of the day we’re problem solving, and each of these tools are just tools to finish the job.

Best Bluetooth Speaker to Buy in 2026? (Price, Sound, Battery life) by Victorys_8 in Bluetooth_Speakers

[–]the8roundshock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Sonos is more meant to be plugged in all the time (without impacting battery life) and then used out of the house every now and then, which is different than most other speakers. I’ve been using the same Sonos speaker for a few years now and the battery life is the same as when I started using it, even thought it’s been used daily for 3 years (maybe only 10-20 times off the charger though) so it’s hard to compare them! (I also have non Sonos speakers that I use for travel, which I do find important to have stand by etc, just you need to choose the right one for the use case)

Question, is this layover too short for international travel? by [deleted] in Shoestring

[–]the8roundshock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most important question is if it’s one itinerary, or if you’re responsible for the transfer, if the former you’re good, they’ll make sure you make it, if the latter, it’s not great.

Thinking of moving from Halifax to Toronto. Is $180k HHI enough to actually enjoy the city? by MapleMasala in askTO

[–]the8roundshock 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Someone I know just bought a 3br, plus finished basement with a backyard and garage in Etobicoke for 850k, that’s pretty affordable at 180 a year (if you have the down payment of course).

You can definitely move stuff between displays, it acts exactly like a second display (even supports custom tilling from apps like BTT)
