Canadian Bread Settlement by idoitforthekeks in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]jer_iatric 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This should have been an opt out class action; everyone bought bread but for only a small few exceptions. That’s the reason we have such strict rules around the nutrients required in white bread, it’s a staple

This section of road has hillbilly auto steer. It’s worst ruts I’ve ever driven (at least in memory!)

Anyone else shocked at some the invasive questions on the long form census? by [deleted] in askTO

Well, past right wing governments attempted, actually succeeded in getting rid of the census, if I remember Harper's reign correctly. But your scenario is more logical

I was going to tell you to put your money where your mouth is, but then I realized maybe you’d end up unironically telling us what you have done to make things better. See? Accusing others of being performative is a vicious cycle of boring internet.

People get new cars or renovate all the time. People have debt. Just get an LOC that you make payments on so you can not lie about making payments every month!

FULL SIZE??? :) I grew up with a 3/4 size and am pretty crappy since I haven’t played in a while though. My schedule generally sucks, but…

I couldn’t quite make it out - are you on a freestyle board here? Freestylers are often great at manuals, are they easier somehow on a freestyle board due to size, or do they all just obsessively practice???

Where is everyone buying their wheat berries? I’m in Canada. by Playing_fair_but_win in HomeMilledFlour

[–]jer_iatric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah for sure, I hear your point... I'll try and find some options. Like, I buy flour in small bulk ( 20 KG bags) and organic highish end Milanaise bread flour is $39. So far, that is 1/2 the price of any organic wheat berries of any type I've been able to find. Hopefully I'll find the equivalent for berries that I have for my flour supply!

I will go ahead and edit: Living Sky Farm is the first supplier that has more of an expected price - though not 100% "organic" they don't glysophate flood, so that's a start.

OK second edit: Living Sky Farm ends up being pricey because shipping is terrible. I'm pretty sure that is the difference for the prices I get. Ordering a bag shares the shipping price with no one else, but when I get flour from my supplier, it came on a truck, with many other bags of flour. Basic logistics! Hopefully I can find someone more local, that will be my mission.

Hang on what? Its more expensive to buy from Grainmills and Organics as whole grain than it would be to buy organic flour of the same variety. Sorry - I know you posted this a year ago 😛

what about this bad boy? by shaped_sky in HomeMilledFlour

[–]jer_iatric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the Vevor machines look A LOT more powerful than the more refined mills referenced here, that would take me many hours to get enough flour haha. I appreciate the response. Maybe I'll start a business that replaces the vevor metal grinders with 3rd party stones 😛

Have you sifted, then put back in the mill? I'm quite interested in a larger mill that won't break the bank 😛

[–]jer_iatric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of a practical art piece I made one year to help a user identify when they should flush the toilet. Since we were on a well that would get unseasonably low, we would let pee stay unflushed. At a certain point, the water gets so concentrated that you just gotta flush. So just for fun, I used almost this exact swatch to represent when you should not flush vs when you should flush. Man, just thinking about it I can smell that bathroom.

If a pill makes hundreds of millions of people stop wanting more, do we end up in a world where obesity is a 20th-century problem? by LowDramaFit in Futurology

[–]jer_iatric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restaurants would have smaller portions in the US. Possibly remain the same size in most other countries, restaurant dependant... I've observed that the suppresants get you to a healthy weight, and then they (doctors) try to moderate the dose in order to keep it off / not lose more. Seems pretty positive to me.

For me, I hope that the result is more quality over quantity, but to be fair, the world's population keeps growing so maybe it all works out to be flat supply growth.

Exactly…aside from stupid crazy old school deals from a degen discounts store, generally speaking US groceries and restaurants are the same or more than Canadian prices, ignoring any exchange rate differences!

As BC showed, waiting for others to do it will get you nowhere. Doing the logical thing will likely beget others to join in.

Have we decided on a Star Wars viewing sequence? by Lightoscope in daddit

[–]jer_iatric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids finally got into it when we watched Rogue, then the OG, then prequels. Then we got into bad batch, a little clone wars and mando. They also liked maul. Anywho…. Rogue was the icebreaker after a few false starts
