Free upgrade is always great. Sadly, Tears of Kingdom is not on this list

I use hair clog remover twice a year on my bathroom sink. Seems that I should install a drain hair catcher for it?

I had been using Clorox's Liquid-Plumr Pro Strength Hair Clog Remover for years.

I had stockpiled it during CT's promotion last year, and it's used up now. Is there any Canadian replacement?

Thank you

Edit: Thank you for all your suggestions. I think I'd change my habit. I'm going to install a drain hair catcher to my bathroom sink, instead of using chemical hair remover twice a year

Sorry to hear it. I'm a casual player and the Linux performance worked well for me. If playing CS competitively, the little difference in performance is crucial.

Not sure what kind of multi player game you prefer. Dota 2 and CS have perfect Linux support and it may worth a try

With my experience, different Costco stores have different experience. The closest store to me is small and messy, and SKUs are too limited so I had to go to other supermarkets after checkout. However, another store (10km away) is neat and clean. Although crowded, the checkout process is very smooth.

If the Costco you visited made you disappointed, I'd suggest to refund the membership. We're paying to shop in Costco, and it's fair to expect good shopping experience.

I'm neutral with it.

A meta-search engine is a search tool that sends user queries to selected search engines and returns the result

I don't know the cost of Waterfox to send the queries to the search engine providers. I'm afraid that the ad income can't cover the cost

IHMO it's not either-or. It's both-and

 

Canadians using Twitter/X are being bombarded by misleading right-wing posts designed to boost Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and tarnish the reputation of Mark Carney.

The FT’s analysis finds a growing volume of that misinformation is coming not from Russia or China, but the United States.

LibreOffice is the top open source choice, and it has been the default choice for Linux users for more than a decade. I'd recommend everyone to have a try

Thank you so much for your explanation. I think I found the reason.

Now I edited my post with the webp link, and lemmy.ca is considering my post to be crossposted from the feddit.uk post, and also crossposted of [email protected]

As the readers of this post can access the original post now, I think there is no need to create a new post.

Thanks again!

There might be some changes that could improve it further:

  • ~~Remove Brave~~
  • ~~Maybe add Signal; It's easier than Element, but it's also centralized~~
  • Stop suggesting Linux Mint specifically
  • Recommend Hosted Nextcloud
  • ~~Add GrapheneOS~~
  • Maybe add Delta chat
  • ~~Maybe remove Bluesky~~
  • ~~Remove Stremio and add Jellfyin (even though it's selfhosted and not a direct equivalent)~~
  • ~~Add ente because Immich is selfhosted~~
  • ~~Add aurora~~
  • ~~Add SearxNG~~
  • Add SimpleX
  • Add lichess
  • Add pCloud

Any other suggestions?

Temporary improved version:

I have been a Pringles lover for more than a decade, and it's time for me to find an alternative one. I like the saddle-shape and I don't know which brand provides it.

r/BuyFromEU suggests some local brands, but that's not my case:

Any suggestions? Thank you

 

I'm an Ontario resident, and I had been planing a trip to Alaska. For obvious reason, I'm re-routing to BC for glacier.

I have several doubts about this trip:

  1. As a first-time traveller for glacier, which park/route do you suggest?
  2. I'm not a fan of hiking. Can I stay on the driveway?
  3. I'm planning a 5-day trip. Is it too short?

Thank you!

 

Today I purchased Citterio Sliced Assorted Meat at Costco. This is my first time buying Italian Panini sliced assorted meats. Could anyone tell me that which is in my plate?

  • Sweet capocolla
  • Mortadella
  • Prosciutto cotto

Thank you.
