Also damaging to businesses… I already knew about the butter recall and then saw this. My brain automatically filled in ‘peanut butter’ when reading because of the photo, and my first thought was damn, Costco fucked up again? Maybe they are going downhill in quality. Until I read the comments to realize I should reread that.

Personally I prefer a mixture of both. Touch screen for anything you don’t need to operate while driving and physical for everything else.

Android Auto navigation, car system/audio settings, clock and system management, etc should all be a touch screen so you aren’t navigating through turning knobs and pressing up and down buttons to go through various menus like your programming a microwave.

Knobs and dials and buttons for anything to do with audio volume, skip/reverse tracks, etc. and air conditioning.

My dad is the same with gas price. If gas is 156.9 cents a litre? Nah to him it’s 156 cents a litre

Then leave the advertisement alone. They still print the prices on tags at each store location.

Let them send out flyers saying item A is $20 *plus local taxes but when you get to the store the pricetag on the shelf should say $23.50 or whatever the markup ends up being at that location.

Is it only through the skin? I could see it being useful for some sort of implanted medical device/monitoring system.

That way you have something subcutaneous but the power source is strapped to the outside of your body so you can remove for short periods of time to wash/recharge it.

Eh, I don’t mind tasteful graffiti but when it’s literally just a dozen tags with nothing artistic about it then that’s pretty shit.

Why not both?

It’s not necessarily the companies in this case at least not for the tomato sauce.

It’s deceiving how much sugar is also in natural, unprocessed and healthy foods.

According to Google there’s about 2.6g of sugar in a 100g tomato, and it takes roughly 2200g of tomato’s to make a jar of sauce the size of a 680g jar of ragu, which according to their nutritional facts has about 43g of sugar in the jar, whereas the raw tomato’s themselves would have contained about 56g of sugar.

It takes a lot of tomatos to make pasta sauce. Even a little sugar in one tomato adds up quick.

Depends where you live. Up north it only makes a difference for a few weeks. Then it’s still dark after work for most of the winter.

As an ex-zookeeper, Yes, because of multiple reasons.

A) Seasonal vegetables are cheap and often donated B) Seasonal items increase social media activity. C) Seasonal items are typically in-line with natural cycles that align with wild animals.

There’s literally no downside. Financial benefit, social benefit, and benefits to the well-being for the animal.

Yes I know, but I was just trying to put into the perspective the person I was replying to.

Except the lifetime of the universe is quite small when compared to infinity, so it doesn’t really convey how large infinity is because it’s so much more.

I disagree with letting whales waste their money.

Video game design has changed to specifically cater to whales and ignore regular gamers.

It’s no different than spending thousands on travel or hundreds to watch movies at the theater. You’re paying for the experience and entertainment, not something physical.

That seems… Inefficient?

New Social media pops up every other year or so. Do they need to meet and vote to add new ones to the list every time?

I used chat gpt, mostly because I absolutely hate how widespread and pushy every company has been about using AI and throwing it in my face so I stubbornly refuse to use any of it.

Sometimes it’s helpful if I’m having trouble making a specific excel formula

Hedgehogs are a little different than cats

Mosquitos aren’t some special niche. Take out mosquitos and something else moves in to replace them, something that doesn’t bite.

There’s nothing that solely depends on mosquitos, and wouldn’t prefer to eat other things which mosquitos may be suppressing by existing themselves.

What if all ads are 30seconds long, would it be impossible to lock skipping anywhere for the first 30seconds of every video?
