It's likely cheaper and better when store bought because you're trying to replicate the kind of bread that's easily mass produced and greatly benefits from economy of scale. Lean doughs are so much less work, and they're both cheaper and tastier when homemade. I'd even go as far as to say it's less work than going to the grocery store to pick up a loaf.

Both plots are incredibly upsetting. What kind of monster labels their plots like this?

Probably makes more sense to kill their dog or something like that. Hint that there's more where that came from.

Probably related to exposure to stuff in our atmosphere, like most things that spoil out here. Oxygen, water, etc.

Costco does for clearance items.

Stores also don't prominently advertise everything that's cheap. Sometimes, you go in and see that detergent is cheaper than usual, and even if you aren't low on detergent yet (hence not looking up the price), it makes sense to stock up anyway.

I interpreted it as meaning they decide on the specific brand when they're at the grocery store and are able to compare prices. They've already decided beforehand that they needed detergent.

Shouldn't this save money?

This video has been posted so many times in this thread that I've inadvertently memorized the video ID.

Or, do a fun thing, and at the end of it, you get bonus tasty stuff.

But if you're running anyway...

Yeah, if. That's why I ask. I'm not familiar with the way things work there, and based on this headline, I thought it was a reasonable hypothesis.

You could say the same about humans working exploitative jobs. You can be unhappy and still stay because the cost of quitting is too high. It's only when it gets really bad that it becomes worthwhile.

Edit: I just learned from another comment that they sometimes clip the queen's wings so they can't leave.

 

Dynamic pricing is already here. They just don't frame it as such. Regular prices at the grocery stores are insanely high, and they just give everyone different discounts based on what they think you're willing to pay.

Changes are highlighted in red.

Most notably, there seems to be three rule changes relating to technique:

  • Squat: Must use a full grip. Thumbless grip is no longer permitted. There's also a minimum height for bar position now.
  • Bench press: No sink-and-press
  • Deadlift: Clarifications on what it means to lock out with your shoulders back.

Say it's 25C outside and 30C indoors. I want to bring the indoor temp down to 25C, but opening all the windows barely makes a dent. Does it make sense to have the AC turned on and set to 25C while I have the windows open? Or should I be closing them anyway?

RL is still nowhere near the scale where this matters, but it's always good to get an idea of how things are going to look when they inevitably reach that point.
