    NOT the email I was wanting...

    well ... it's better than me ! My brother got the headphones I bought for him 1 day early, but they arrive DOA (mic doesn't work).
  4. Just heard on the news, Northwest territories (Canadian territory) went from 0 daily cases to almost 100 new cases daily. Their case per 100k is twice that of the worst province despite them having a very high number of fully vaccinated citizens. Public health experts are pointing out that they followed the 4-6 weeks recommendations for the second doses, meaning they're 8 to 12 weeks "in advance" since elsewhere in Canada we went with 12+ weeks between shots. And so this lines up with the current studies pointing out the lower immunity over time and the need for booster shots.
  5. So, chances that we're stuck with endemic COVID and yearly shots are getting more and more real???

  10. You can't correct people about their personal experiences. He said Intel, if you're not interested in helping the OP with his preferences, then don't don't reply and move on.
  11. Started watching Squid Game (English dub).

     

    It's pretty crazy and great (for now, on episode 6). While it's not a new concept (BR), it's well made and this 'version' of it is really interesting IMO !

    Paul, what the actual F man! 😱

  13. Yes, that's the point of a UPS. In the future, "look at this" or "Public Service Announcement" style content should be posted in a status update and not as a thread.

  19. That's normal, the US market is 10x the Canadian one, so even if you're able to corner a small area of the market, it's still brings 10x the volume than the same market in Canada. Volume helps a LOT to bring price down. But we often have similar deals with the US, and when we're lucky, after conversion, our prices are lower. RANT ; Though, in some areas, we're getting totally screwed ... distributors know Canadians are used to see higher prices in Canada because our currency is lower, when it lowers in value, prices go up, but when the value of the CAD goes up, like in 2008 when the CAD was at par with the USD, prices stayed the same, and many Canadians were pissed. LOTS of Canadians even took the time to go to the US to buy cars, on a brand new car, even after the trip, import taxes and duty, you could save $10k. Comparable products would cost double in Canada VS US, even on some products that were MADE in Canada !!!! (let's be real, if something is produced in your country, it shouldn't cost 50% more than in the neighbour country !). /RANT
