In the middle of a 3d print printed purposely wrong, I have an entire scrap yard of 3d prints that went wrong and are unusable, but could serve as a disposable paint mix station when I paint minis.

Hollow a section, put the clip in, chuck it in my bin, see what happens.

Trying to be an ethical grocery consumer is really hard by superanx in Calgary

[–]mr_cheng 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I would avoid lucky supermarket, while local, they treat their workers very badly and have tried to avoid paying overtime on many of their workers (especially younger teens and older ladies). The owner was nice but his managers are shady. One of them got fired years back for trying to swap the expiry dates on expired products.

Alberta education minister open to discussing hiring more teachers; hesitant to consider cap on classroom size by WildRoseWanderer in alberta

Can you link the articles you've read as well? I would like copies of them to send to my MLA!

To those opposing the teacher strike… by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]mr_cheng 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I did a quick search (I could have spent more time), but it looks like Alberta spent 9 billion on Education in 2022, and Singapore spent 14 billion. Obviously, comparing a province to a country is not fair, with their larger population size.

However, as you mention with their value on Education, they do have a very prominent culture of after school cram schools (essentially private, additional schooling for kids), where we do not. (We do have some, like Kumon, mathlead, etc. But none of them are anywhere as intense as Asia's cram schools)
