Montreal Canadiens ...
They announced on hockey night it was a Sportsnet thing. They had it live on their YouTube channel though: You didn't miss much - Vegas failed to show up and refs were abysmal by all standards. -

Canda Post $#&* Company now?
As someone who works at Canada Post I definitely cannot disagree with the thread title, however: 1. Insurance claims are more likely to be processed properly if the shipper has a business account and the shipper makes the claim. (too much he said she said with regular customers, and the... -

New build with an X570 MATX board: what should I do?
The question is why do you need x570? You aren't getting much for the cost and every x570 board is going to be prone to thermal issues, you are much better off with something like a b450 board if you want to go SFF.- ilya

which brands or phone models keep as close to stock, if not stock, Android on their mid-range phones?
Motorola pretty much has the largest selection for your requirements. Aside from gesture control it's basically stock Android across the entire lineup. If you don't mind that it's an older model, the x4 can be found on sale pretty frequently just under your price point. (Android one version...- ilya

Lucky Mobile
I had an issue with public mobile where my phone thinks it's a regular Telus network so I had to manually input APN settings. Lucky and public are both on the Bellus network but they're both MVNOs. (Which is how I would limit you to 3g speeds on a 4g network) Rogers equivalent Chatr, simply...- ilya

out of touch with psu tech besides seasonic
Make a list of all the inexpensive PSUs and cross reference to see if its made by a known good OEM. Most of the big enthusiast names like EVGA, Antec, and Corsair have learned to stick with good OEMs if you dont have the time.

HW monitor vs Realtemp
Both pieces of software read off the same sensor, the reason the numbers are different is because the tjmaxx value is set wrong in one or both pieces of software. Tjmaxx value on your cpu is specific to your specific model number and stepping revision. The software reads the sensor data as...- ilya

SJWs begin hijack of Linux??
Linus was never pushed out he was either looking for an excuse to take leave or legitimately wanted to improve his behaviour in terms of how he treated other people. If you actually read the code of conduct it's basically a copy pasted version of every code of conduct used in any professional... -

Won a CPU! Need opinions: to platform upgrade or not
AMD did an exchange program for people who won that contest, can't remember if it was threadripper cpus or mainstream ryzen though. Could look to see if that's still open.- ilya

is there good and free VPN software?
I was able to use softether vpn to connect to a region locked game server while keeping non game traffic not going through the vpn. (could probably do the same with openvpn) Kind of the opposite of what you want to do but it might work depending on your specific use case. Also some commercial...- ilya

Wiping a phone with a dead usb port
I'll probably just do that, it's not super sensitive data or anything I would just rather not leave it out there. I don't even keep important passwords on that file, would be better just to make a new one. Unfortunately this is one of those all glass phones that doesn't support wireless charging.- ilya

Memory Price Fixing Under Investigation...AGAIN!
There's no reason for those 3 companies to stop price fixing even though it's illegal, the amount they get fined every time they get caught is pennies compared to how much they make breaking the law. The highest possible fine cited in that article is 8 billion when they made 88 billion off the...- ilya

Wiping a phone with a dead usb port
The usb port on my MotoX4 died and the battery drained out before I could do a factory reset. (bought a usb c device because of all the micro b ports that I see break and my first usb c breaks in 2 months :doh:) My RMA hasn't been approved by Newegg yet, but if it does I would prefer to wipe...- ilya

LogMeIn Free goes bye bye
Same company, similar product, slightly different features for different customers. Logmein can be used like a VPN pretty much the same as Hamachi, unless you need to manage a lot of clients.- ilya

Workstation on a Budget
You might want to go with a used system or switch to AMD if your budget is that tight. No matter how fast a dual core simply won't cut it for your workloads, you'd be better off getting less RAM with a slower CPU with more cores/threads.- ilya

Note 2 stuck at boot screen
Someone asked me to fix their Galaxy Note 2, it gets stuck at a boot screen and gets the frozen loop when trying to charge it. I can't get into the hard reset menu/recovery mode but I can get into ODIN. I tried loading the stock firmware onto the phone via ODIN but the micro USB connection...- ilya

Artisan Gaming Mouse Pads
The company seems to respond to emails reasonably quickly - I'd just ask them. And for the meantime you could try ironing the pad with an ironing cloth and high steam to prevent burn shine. That's what I did with mine after it started to curl. Word of caution: it makes the surface slightly...- ilya

Ontario Liberal Majority
What sucks more is the Liberals keep winning in York Region partly because of the stupid (dis?)improvements they've made to our transit. Another thing they're doing to Hwy 7 that's stupid is removing road safety barriers (not sure what they're called) and replacing them with pretty fences that... -

Ontario Liberal Majority
Not sure about other municipalities, but the reasons the Libs have won in Markham absolutely infuriates me. Our Liberal candidate basically just keeps all the whiners happy and doesn't think about whats actually good for the city. People are constantly complaining about not having a traffic...
