Used to be call the Germania bakery, $10/loaf (this was like back 5-7 yrs ago so $10/loaf was pretty damn expensive then), one item only at the bakery. Nazi Baker ... owner/baker looked like the Nazi soup guy. So it's their kids who do the pizza now, hey?
Yes, I tried Moncton Pizza, pretty legit. About as good as Park & Tilford, SaveOn Kitchen Pizza at $3 per slice.

Moncton pizzeria is great. I keep telling them to add bacon to their baked potato pizza. I miss that from piR2 at UBC.
We usually pick up a slice when we're out there. Kids always want to go to Dubdub toys for harder to find/retired Lego sets.

My friend had her husband order the lobster pizza from Stevestion Pizza and said it wasn't really worth it... Frozen lobster wasn't great and the taste overall wasn't impressive at all. It's more for the spectacle than anything else.

MMA gym owners, coaches ID’d at secretive neo-Nazi event in B.C. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/white...uver-9.6970604
CBC and antihate doing some great work.
2 people from the Island went to this event. One was a boxing coach who got fired from his gym the other owns an mma gym in Duncan.
What a bunch of losers.

Like, what needs to be done at this point? Sweden just had another female politician step down after death threats in the hundreds or thousands from far right Nazi scum. What the fuck is going on?
Do we need to make laws that make social media disappear? People are just so fucking stupid and easily influenced. The increase of people that are this fucking disgusting must be 100x what it was a decade ago.
This is fucking despicable.

Naming and shaming still seems to work here. That gym in Duncan looks like it shut down. Here are photo's off all the attendees. https://www.antihate.ca/white_nation...n_age_identify

Question for you computer/electronics guys: Is thermal paste all the same?
I'm trying to replace a thermostat on a kettle and I need to apply thermal paste to the contact points to the kettle. The instructions simply say "apply a dab of thermal paste to the contact points" and that's it.

Tell me more.
Remember: This is for a kettle, not an Intel i7 running on overboost.

For most applications yes unless you are trying to eke out that last 1 degree of heat transfer efficiency. The main difference would be whether if you need just a regular paste to fill the gaps, or a thermal glue, or thermal tape.

This is the old one where you can see the paste.

The short answer was no, they aren't the same. It wasn't not about performance as it was for a kettle. It was mainly about the actual application. I don't see anything that a kettle would need specifically, but I'd double-check as if you need it to be non-conductive, you probably want to avoid any metal based one.

Badhobz will be disappointed that I didn’t buy the kettle from Costco.

Re thermal paste I would just look up the temperature operating range spec for the stuff to make sure it was intended to be happy doing kettle duty + some comfortable margin of error.
I'm not at all worried for performance, moreso for your health. Wouldn't want that shiet burning and outgassing and giving you cancer or something, wafting through your kitchen  ..
Try googling for thermal paste intended for espresso machines? That might be a fit for your application.

Good call. I'm heading over to Faema in Mississauga later this afternoon to pick some up.

Update: Paste applied and kettle tested. All is well.
Funny fact: The kettle I just repaired was discontinued in North America a few years ago. It's not sold under a different brand in developing countries as the Aicok MK-H317E1B.
For those who are curious: The original kettle in question is a Midea MK-H317E1B. What's unique about it is that all the internals, including the lid, is stainless steel, so no plastic parts. It was the thermostat pin that broke, and required a replacement. The thermostat is made by Strix, model U1855. Strix hold the patent on nearly all cordless kettles. I found the thermostat on Temu for $2.
