Highlights from this day
  • typosquat_tay — is there a national picture at all or is it entirely provincial cross border out of canada rarely makes sense because canada is usually the cheaper side of that… 19:26
  • typosquat_tay — my monthly cost with partial insurance came to about 120 canadian dollars, which is not a number anybody else can use, from memory 20:20
  • typosquat_tay — coverage in canada is provincial and it is a patchwork. what a member in one province reported has almost never matched another 20:22
