Not the other poster but a Canadian too. It varies. To see my GP I can get an appointment within the week, usually same day, though most people here need to wait a couple weeks. Then there GP refers me to specialists, that's usually between 1-6 months wait.

Emergency yeah you are usually looking at 4 hours wait absolute minimum. Though you don't get charged for it at least. Though I guess it depends on severity, they will prioritize by how serious it is not by first arrival.

The other thing the other poster didn't mention is that medication is not covered so you have to pay full for that unless you have insurance. Also for some reason dental isn't covered at all without insurance (or I think recently for low income families but I'm not 100% sure if that's implemented yet or not)

I think what they are saying is: Lemmy itself has an option you set on your profile that shows or hides read posts. That'll apply forever no matter which client you use, but you can't even see your own posts that way so it's frustrating.

Then the clients themselves, like sync, might have their own option to hide read that works independently of the Lemmy setting, in which case they should have more control over it.

In my case I have Lemmy set to show read posts but sync set to hide them but like other people have said, it doesn't seem to work perfectly.

Do you need two copies of the game for that?

Where are these settings? I can't find them.

I liked it quite a bit for the first three quarters or so but I felt the end was a huge info dump. Normally he manages the world building in a way where it's not a huge leap to understand what had happened but in this case there were multiple layers of the narrator saying "oh, you're confused?! Of course you are! Here's an info dump about the cosmere".

I've read everything cosmere, but I'm not very happy with the more recent books that expect cosmere knowledge to make the story enjoyable or even understandable. And I feel like he's getting pretty lazy with that lately (though maybe the secret projects not having a third party editor has something to do with it in this case)

Any list of companies? I would send in a resume. Especially if they are also fully remote.

I tried fermata auto but it just has a YouTube button that doesn't do anything, am I missing something?

WFRP (Warhammer Fantasy role play) has a fun system where there are lots of careers, but those careers have talent options. Each talent isn't limited to one career so there is overlap but the combination of talents and skills is what makes the careers unique.

Wow this would have been really useful to be recently, I will keep it in mind in the future.

I started and finished the first two Murderbot books from Martha Wells (All Systems Red, Artificial Condition). Reading the ebooks I didn't realize how short they were until I got to near the end. I guess they count as novellas? But it's nice to have something fun and easily digestible now and then so I'll start the third tonight.

Children of Time was very good. There is a sequel, no? But I never read it.

Cool, Pocketbook Touch Lux 5 looks pretty good, since it's the smallest one. But water resistance is a good idea, that's why my kobo stopped working actually. And I can't see anything on that model about water resistance. Which did you get?

I had to use my email rather than username, though I'm aware not all instances require one.

Anybody been to this area near Algonquin in Ontario? I can't seem to find a digital map of canoe routes other than the booking one.

Edit: Turns out Jeff's Map (of Algonquin) actually has the whole area included!
