Pretty sure China is behind France

In Canada it’s tap to pay for ~8 years now, never saw a QR code to pay. However when I go in USA, every stores is tap to pay, except one, there’s one store in USA where there is no tap, it’s Walmart, inconcevable.

It will be what? $1000? And the problem with Motorola in general is their update. One Android update, some security ones, and that’s it.

We can’t go anymore, first, tickets are expensive, like starting at $200-300 in Canada. Then the minute they go on sale, they are all sold to scalpers who resell them $2000 on kijiji. Madonna tickets reached $6000.

So I stopped caring about live concerts.

I know, Maxi is part of Loblaws as I wrote, but unfortunately it is the cheapest grocery in QC, but I go more and more at SuperC now.

Loblaws branded stores disappeared from QC years ago. In Québec, Métro is pretty expensive, like IGA or Provigo. The cheapest groceries are Maxi (yeah, it’s Loblaws group) and SuperC (Metro group). But for me, all fruits/vegetable comes from local greengrocers, who also sell various ham/cold cuts and lot of cheese, sometimes for 50% of the price of groceries, and it’s fresh cut. Else for some bulks there’s bulk barn, and Costco, or sometimes even Amazon, a family box size cereal is $10.99 at IGA and the same one is $5.49 on Amazon.

Absolutely, I’m in QC and we had a couple of way to sell things, lespac, kijiji, etc. but Marketplace is now 100% the king of it, it’s quite incredible especially in big city like Montréal. Others platforms to sell are quite dead.

The other thing I’m using FB for, is groups, that replaced good old web forums… On FB there’s group of everything, costco addicts, dollarama addicts, plants addicts, with ten of thousands of locals people.

As soon as you unlock your bootloader and root, you have to install magisk and random fix-of-the-day to fix Google Wallet/Pay. It’s a pain in the ass, it works for a few days/weeks and it’s a catch game too often, it’s boring, really.

Boycot Loblaws, I went to Maxi, they have way better prices!

/s

They are building thousands of condo at 1M$ and have a pikachu face when they realize it’s hard to sell?

LUKS don’t use TPM

it should be in your MS online account as someone wrote, but in case of, I always save it on a USB key, hidden somewhere. You can also print it, or take a picture of it with your phone. Because there is no way to get it back.

I have bought hundreds of stuff on AE, it’s ok, especially for stuff that are less than $10 that local sellers sell for like $40 for the exact same thing. I got some items in less than a week in Caanda.

uhoh, and wait for the time when the user will update his BIOS, that resets TPM2, and at reboot bitlocker asks for the 48 digits key to decrypt hard drive, that the user never saved…

I’m using irplus, you can easily create/save/load IR files to emulates all possible remotes, takes them from https://github.com/irplus-remote/irplus-codes.github.io

I also saw some small rectangles batteries stacked

There’s the same sign in NC/SC, plus the SOTB Pedro signs

It is funny because in something like 30 years, it will be children that will provide financially to their 80-90yo parents

In my part of QC, the only “Loblaws” around me is a Maxi, it’s pretty cheap certainly one of the most affordable groceries here. But I can go to a nearby SuperC just to boycott Galen.

I know, all Stellantis too because they are grade B cars. In the end I don’t know what will be the remaining brand not enshitified? Lada?
