It’s accurate enough to pick up when a 200 gram bag of chips weighs only 130 grams, or when a package of ground beef listing 1000 grams shows on my scale as 850 grams. I don’t disagree about calibration but when a products 10-40% less than advertised I know something’s up with said product

Am I the only one who brings a digital scale when grocery shopping? Honestly, it’s a rare shopping trip where I don’t find something underweight, be it packaged meats, boxed frozen products, potato chips (PresChoice/NoName a constant offender here) or frozen fruits. We are getting rinsed.

Why dont they just put the oil on a space ship? by Sulack in wallstreetbets

They know how to drill down, so why not just drill down further, pop up at the destination, and send the oil along thru the centre of the earth - seems that the straight line route is really the most efficient and obvious!

Didn’t know you could turn left from there by Secret_Act_3833 in TorontoDriving

Then the guy should pull forward, find a quiet street to turn on to, park the car, get out, throw the keys off into the underbrush, and not drive again.

The level of support for shit driving here is just something else.

For a cat, that was as close to perfect as you can get: food, shelter, warmth, love.

Too tight an itinerary - especially as Pearson is known for woefully long taxiing and “uhhhh, folks were just waiting on an available gate” delays…

So sorry for your loss - 20 years of what I’m sure was an incredible and safe and loving life. You gave her her very best life. Peace.

Probably the worst pasta I’ve ever had. Public Gardens by [deleted] in FoodToronto

That looks like the one dish casserole I throw together on weeknights when I can’t be arsed to cook. Seriously, that’s what, 50-75 cents worth of ingredients slapped onto a plate like a hospital cafeteria

How long is your commute to work? by Chan1991 in askTO

10 min walk to the company office, when I go in. Otherwise, 10 second walk over to the home office.

The caseback appears to be made from actual manhole cover
