A 3 is what my helmet gives me for grinding mode, that’s nothing.

I used a 10 or 11 for one eclipse and it worked alright.

Electric kettle or stovetop? Important distinction!

But how can we trust that your Standardized Banana is standardized to the correct standard? Has it been certified?

I don’t want no Metric Standard Banana (MSB).

They’ll find that most of the peeps keeping the automation from turning itself inside out are also workers, and currently not amused in many cases.

He can pair it to the phone app or whatever on his device then; his fridge, his problem.

I can’t give you more information because I literally don’t know more than that.

I’m a bitch basic internet user, and I’ve never had a site do this before, and I don’t have 3 hours to teach myself everything on the subject just for one shitty site, or to research and install whatever the current best suite of un-enshittified extensions is. I have Ublock origin running in Firefox already, so for all I know the cookies are already auto-deleting, but I really couldn’t tell you.

If it was my card instead of someone else’s, I would have cancelled the whole thing and just picked up the tickets in person on the way home or something. Or just not given them my business (so just not seen the movie, because they have a near monopoly out here).

I’m a mechanic, not a programmer, and at this point probably not a moviegoer again, either, because the fuss of dealing with their crap now isn’t worth seeing movies, just like we’ve basically stopped streaming anything in my household and cancelled most of the subs. Now my money can go to renovations and hobbies instead!

In fact, the internet in general is getting to be such a pain in the ass, my usage is probably going to drop off to avoid all these headaches.

Their online ticket buying is atrocious.

From last night, on a PC using Firefox:

• crashes log in to account unless you enable all cookies for the site
• forced 2FA to a phone number (I just hate these, it’s a way for them to steal your phone number)
• refuses to let you buy tickets unless you re-enable all cookies for the site (and puts a countdown on that page)
• fees are at the end of the page scroll on the 3rd or 4th page in
• refuses to let you pay unless you add a whole-ass credit card to your account, while cookies and trackers are enabled, again with a counter

Never have I had to disable Firefox’s onboard blocking to simply pay for something with a credit card online, I’m highly suspicious of Cineplex’s back end and the second any weird activity happens on that credit card, or email address, I’m going after them.

They should be legally forced to use an existing well-regarded payment vendor, because whatever is going on now, they’re doing something either very incompetent, or very fishy.

This is the best take I’ve seen yet, with the benefit that it’s literally already been done.

It’d be interesting to see what would happen if they tried to mandate this now, but I’m sure it’s already too late.

My own family has looked into living wills after the care of my grandfather in decline, some of it at home. That may be something for you to look into to help anyone who would become responsible for you in such a situation.

I would argue that caring for people with dementia and Alzheimer’s is a specialized skill set, and that most people don’t have those skills but become forced into situations that can lead to elder abuse and devastating mental health consequences.
