Damn, PNE always has better headliners for concerts. The CNE sucks in comparison. Nevermind getting a seat to SuperDogs!
I feel like I've asked this before, but for those of you who have Apple AirPods, are you able to connect multiple devices simultaneously? Or do you need to pair/connect them one by one?
For example, if I pair the AirPods to my PC (Windows 11-based) and I get a call on my iPhone, will it automatically switch? Or do I need to connect the AirPods to my iPhone to get audio? Thanks in advance.

| Airpods are not multipoint capable so you cannot do this.
However if your desktop was a Mac, it can do this as iOS/Mac OS can pass calls to each other on the same Apple ID account.

So instead of just fixing an issue and punishing the re-sellers you punish everyone
edit* the presale code for today is SNCVIRGIN | More like they just took over the scalping. Ticketmaster scalps their own tickets now.

Ok thanks. I thought the Chinese refresh was a CCP initiative to brainwash Canadians on how to properly drive.

You don't get much value for paying 7x the cost of a normal ticket. Merch and soundcheck for CC seems like a stupid bundle put together to force people to spend a crapload more money just to get a front row seat. At least, Skynyrd VIP gives people the ability to meet the band up close. Their merch is better too.

DT Costco might charge $2 parking, but its covered parking is always empty in Level 2 on non-game days. Beats fighting for parking in Level 1 imo.
I went to Still Creek a few evenings ago for their garden center, and that parking lot is almost as chaotic as Richmond. | Can you take the stairs to P2 and no doors? I'd probably start parking there now if you can. I fkking hate sharing the elevator with gross as people and I hate touching parkade doors lol. (I only buy stuff I can hold).

downtown costco has quite a limited selection. But its good and bad. Good because they have stuff other Costco's don't (Kirkland in house sushi, sashimi for example) and if you're buying clothing, they actually have more stock and more sizes due to the lower volume of people going there.
But if you need like motor oil (not available at all), or dog food, or even baby wipes and cereal, their stuff is very very limited.
