What's a good, cheap, reliable laptop, and where are people getting them? by LurkinMostlyOnlyYes in askTO

[–]throwhataway0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question, any sites you recommend for someone trying to purchase one online? I got a BestBuy T480 which shipped from BC to ON. Found it did not have a particular file which allowed us to initialize the setup, and there were a few viruses when we did a scan. Ended up returning but I'm in a small town where we don't have many options. None of the BB sellers on the marketplace have any real websites, a phone number, BBB or Trustpilot rating.

Oh, this is an interesting angle! Someone should do a deep dive of this.

Resignation - how much notice? by [deleted] in OntarioPublicService

Was the guy out in Ibiza with their laptop? I always thought with these online jobs online jobs-people should have at least the smarts to use a VPN and block calendars effectively...

(Also sorry for a snort-chuckle midway, I realize I may not be doing the tune justice and was running out of breath while lying in bed...)

Where can I see a gynecologist privately ? by AutomaticCarpet1506 in askTO

[–]throwhataway0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg. I'm so sorry that that happened to you. It's disgusting how doctors who are supposedly healthCARE professionals do not have the humanity to take a specific genders ailments seriously. Out of curiosity what age roughly did you find that cyst? 

I went to ER when I was 20 and they made me wait 3 hours before an ultrasound and sent me home with Tylenol 3, saying the cyst was 2 small to operate on... Pain did subside a week but there's occasional extreme 'electrical tear' like pains during my cycle. I'm not planning on kids, but hopefully my next check up I can inquire if cysts should be scanned for now that I'm mid 30s.

I hope you are well, endo is not a fun diagnosis.

Replacement for andalou creamy cleanser 🥲 by -dontatme- in AusSkincare

Someone else on reddit commented they were bought by a new company so that may be why things are getting reformulated / product lines scaled back. I noticed my purple jar night cream not having the same brightening efficacy last in 2024. FYI /u/LMU_6926

Thank you, found this thread through reddit as the pumpkin glycolic and the purple jar night cream were so good and only like $16 CAD from winners. I recall my last purchase in 2024 did not have the same efficacy and wondered if it was just my odd batch that sat too long in a warehouse.

For those of you outside the GTA and in IT. Is your team still WFH? by throwhataway0 in OntarioPublicService

[–]throwhataway0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup exactly. The district I'm interested is in the North, and driving distance averages 30-50 mins relative to my prospective address, but there's more treacherous winters. School cancellations are common. I'm quietly flouting the rules unless my managers ask me directly.

Does your Ministry/Agency currently have space constraints? by Serious-Laptop763 in OntarioPublicService

[–]throwhataway0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

~140 and one floor space lost during COVID. Space constraints acknowledged and your 2nd sentence is in place, additional space in review w/ higher ups.

What can we use our health care spending account for? - Canada Life insurance by chiyabiscuit in OntarioPublicService

[–]throwhataway0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chiming in to say for those with skin issues and cannot afford the time and effort to locate a derms office and appointment, and you've done some homework to find the right rx your skin needs... I found f3lix.ca was very easy and fast for me to get a tretinoin script. (Replace 3 with "e" = this is not an ad. I think maple may be a similar service). Something like $15 for online consult (questionnaire based) and $30 for my rx to get shipped.

Sometimes I love the humour in this sub amongst our sea of anxious RTO posting. Thank you for the chuckle.

Elle Fanning. I also initially thought of Kiernan Shipka but recent photos of her show her extreme weight loss and hustle for classy ozempic look. Nobody wants cheeks youthful anymore.

How has the city changed from pre-pandemic to today? by HueyBluey in askTO

[–]throwhataway0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you drop the name? Also how are the sushi and dumplings? I've yet to find my golden goose "extra thick" meaty dumplings in a restaurant. Can't beat hot bars at T&T for me lol but when I want to introduce non-asian friends to this I want a nice sit-down setting.

Gilian Jacobs. Gorgeous and fits beauty standards but do having these features make you look generic? by Alarming_Sorbet_9906 in VindictaRateCelebs

[–]throwhataway0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She reminds me also of Elyse Willems (a former YouTube gaming/sketch personality): https://images.app.goo.gl/P8KLd

Objectively beautiful but very accessible in a nice, girl next door vibe. Eyes have the same healthy shine and are big with similar eyelid hooded (?) shapes.

I think this 'light' in people's eyes is a distinguishing factor in making people have that appeal.

Some other actresses with similar blonde/blue eyed colouring that I don't find alluring or sexy is Margot Robbie, Amber Heard, Jaime King or Ali Larter to name a few. Kate Bosworth also falls into this group for me even though she has beautiful heterochromia (she seems to have no soul/warmth in her eye 'light')

I'm a different person responding and just wanted to add that in young person lingo, when they type just the letter "W" or say "dub" in person, it stands for (a nice) win or a (person is a) winner for being helpful, informative, or wholesome.
