Do the cars ever get cleaned?

First week using Communauto as I'm waiting for my new car delivery.

Is it normal that 90% of the cars feel like they're owned by a farmer who brings in 3 sheeps and a full cow in?
They're totally filthy and seem like they've never seen a vaccum or a wet wipe ever.

Isn't there a team that clean them up like they charge the electric ones?

I have to take a shower of Purell every time I take one

Unshrink a pique polo

Hi everyone,

I just bought last week a Lacoste polo from the store in Japan as I loved the fact they have a Made in Japan version that is slim fit, not the usual boxy fit they produce in the west.

I tried it at the store, fits perfectly.
Came back home fits perfectly.
Washed it in TAP COLD water. Hung it to dry. Put it on, shrunk 1.5 size.

I tried the conditioner and lukewarm water then stretch it and the only thing it did was make it floppy and loose shape.

Is it dreaded ?

Thanks.

Le monde dont le cell est JAMAIS sur silencieux. Pourquoi?

À la bibliothèque, dans les transports, au bureau, dans les lieux de culte, sur la Lune, dans l'univers #7. Les gens qui ont toujours toutes leurs notifs avec volume à fond, c'est quoi votre raison? Vous voulez que tout le monde sache que vous avez aucune considération envers les autres / aucune éducation?

Un petit rant du Mardi matin d'un gars dont la sonnerie standard d'Android et les pings de Messenger tappent royalement sur les nerfs.

Quel image avez-vous de l'utilisateur typique de ce sub ?

C'est juste pour rire en ce Vendredi chaud, aucun but d'offense!

Voici ma version du parfait /user du sub Quebec :

- Sujets principaux : PQ PSPP CAQ
- N'a pas d'autos et deteste les automobilistes
- Conduit une communauto et se plaint que les gens roulent 51km/h
- Défend les routes détruites par 1001 raisons
- Travaille en IT et payé 250k
- Vit dans un 4 et demi qui coûte 750 par mois
- Est persuadé que Montréal est la plus belle ville de la planète, sinon Québec
- Une poutine est bonne seulement si elle vient d'une cantine d'une ville de 100 habitants

J'en oubli sûrement!

Encore une fois on niaise, que personne ne se sente visé ! (Sauf ceux qui défendent des raisons d'avoir des nids de poules à chaque 10cm, sentez-vous visés, oui)

No matter the heat level, the coffee, the grind level, the water temperature, my coffee is always bitter

Hi everyone,

as the title says. I've tried a bunch of brands of coffees from all over the world. Different grind levels but always listed as for moka pot. But recently (it was better when the pot was new IIRC) I might get lucky and have one of 10 cups tasting perfect but 90% of the time I have a bitter and terrible tasting cup of coffee.

My aunt uses a 5 cups, with random grocery coffee and lets it boil until we can hear the bubbles from far away but always ends up tasting fine.

I am not into buying grains and grinding them myself as I never did and used to have a great taste everytime, so does my aunt and other members of my family that uses moka pots back in Europe.

I'm using a Bialetti one cup, on electric stove set at 3 out of 10. I tried 6, 4, nothing changes the bitterness. I used cold, hot water. I take it off the stove when it bubbles. I pass the pot under cold water to stop the boiling. Literally tried every trick.

Is my gasket too old and pushing all the past flavors in my coffee ? I never replaced it.

Thanks a lot

Regret switching phone plan to Virgin Plus

Hi everyone,

I switched to VirginPlus 25$ plan that was on promotion a few months ago from Bell and while it is supposed to run on the same towers and bands, my experience has been a disaster since.

Youtube videos take ages to load every single time, I can barely surf the web to find adresses or help with Maps when I'm on a road trip with friends as the pages would either not load at all or load at a iPhone 3GS in 2009 speed.

In the middle of Montreal or Toronto downtown and I barely get LTE speed that I was getting with Bell.

I'm near Quebec city right now and Ookla shows a 14mbps on LTE.

I regret running after bucks to save with such a trade in experience.

iPhone 13 Mini.

What have been done already :

\- Reset network settings
\- Reinstall eSIM
\- Reboot phone
\- Contacted support which did a reset of my line and network config

What am I doing wrong ?

I'm just thinking of coming back to Bell but I don't really wanna pay 60+ .
Any better offers ?

Thanks.

23k for a pretty low mileage 2020 LR with boost a good deal?

Hey there,

I've been looking at getting a LR Model 3 since January and really don't wanna go over a budget of 25k. Some dealers have listings of 2021-2022 for high 20s low 30s but that's not counting the 2 sale taxes here in QC.

I know the late 2021 refresh is a big deal but I just found a mint looking white on white LR with Acc Boost, full front PPF, 0 rust, suspension refresh at Tesla in 2024, 76k kms for 23k. Private local seller so no need to go through dealer sales etc.

Will I regret not waiting an additional year for a 2021+?

Thanks

Condo ethernet plug only provides 80mbps when my plan is 3gbps

Hi everyone,

I'm in a recent condo and using the GigaHub with a 3gbps plan. Wifi is stable at 500-700mbps on all devices (which is expected over wifi). I also have a plug in the living room and bedroom to have it wired through ethernet. I only use cat6 thick cables. The Bell tech wired (as seen on photos) the cables running from my unit, tested it works from my wall plugs and left.

I did a speedtest afterward over ethernet on my PS5 and only capping at 80mbps. Tried laptop, same.

When plugged directly on the router I get around 900mbps.

I guess something is wrong in the cables either inside the walls or at the setup the tech made.

Anything I can do or should I call Bell again?

Also, shouldn't I get 3gbps if directly connected to router ?

Thanks for the help!

EDIT : forgot the pictures... I shared them in the comments.

How to view LAC catalog ?

Hi everyone,

I'm used to yupoo and ordering through superbuy for reps.
I read on the Wiki that LAC actually sells retail Lacoste with small manufacturing errors, for cheaper.
I tried finding an album to search through, without creating a weidian account as I'm not in China but couldn't get it to work.
Is it also just impossible to user superbuy to buy from LAC ?

Thanks !

Cheapest way to go back to my airport hotel after Saturday's game at Arrowhead ?

Hi everyone,

I'll be in KC for the World Cup game this upcoming Saturday which ends at around 11PM. The ConnectKC26 that we'll be using to get in the city from the airport in the morning will not be able to bring us back as it stops at 10PM.

What would be our cheapest option besides a most probably overexpensive and packed Uber-Cab option ?

We have a pass to go back to downtown after the game. We'll then only need to go from downtown to MCI.

Thanks a lot !

I'm installing iOS27 Beta 1 on my daily

Will report on the experience. I hated iOS26 like I never hated a software before and I've been on iPhone since 2008. So I'm jumping on this one as they promised a big amount of performance enhancements (I'm still hoping yes).

I'll sacrifice my daily 512GB 100%BH for the community.

Where are you guys getting WC26 albums/stickers in Montreal QC?

Hey there,

Decided to restart a World Cup Panini collection for the second time since 1998 to feel back some nostalgia.
I've been looking around at Magazine stores, walmart and librairies but they all don't have the regular album (not the thick one) and don't carry stickers either.

Anyone in the city aware of options available ?

Thanks!

April 1st FOMO is hurting so much right now..

I see the tickets I bought going for less than 50% now.
Could have bought a whole plane ticket with that money.
So frustrating.
I hate that I fell for the virtual pressure created by FIFA

Je suis décidement convaincu que les gens ne sont juste pas au courant qu'ils peuvent mettre leur téléphone à l'oreille

Ils seraient tellement surpris de savoir qu'ils pourraient entendre et parler en même temps, au lieu d'avoir à alterner le haut-parleur entre leur oreille et leur bouche en gueulant "hein?! J'entend pas !"
