Dr. Oetkers

You guys get Dr. Oetker over there? Extremely jealous!

Kim's Convenience was an awesome show, until that last season... but yeah, definitely worth emphasizing Canadian gems like these.

It's tragic too when there is so much Canadian media that gets overshadowed as a result. I've been picking up Orphan Black again which is a fantastic series, but too many Americans have never heard of it.

Netflix is really shit as a subscription anyway, it's gone downhill with the amount of 'tiers' and constant slop production that encourages cancelled 1-season shows over longer, fan-driven works.

Cool resource, thanks for sharing! I was surprised that the old brand I used, which I thought was pretty good, was just "below average", though now the one I'm getting is "above average".

What exactly is this website? I'd never heard of it. It seems legit, but I'm curious about their sourcing.

I've seen some authors I like on Mastodon, like William Gibson. It's a quieter place but I like that about it, as someone who never used Twitter.

Yes, being sedentary hurts you. My point wasn't about weight loss, just that the quality of ingredients and food in Europe is leagues ahead of the US. It is much worse for you nutritionally to eat refined, processed grains than it is to eat whole grains. Not to mention the amount of fresh produce...

The access to fresher ingredients and healthier food cannot be understated. Food is so much more processed in the US, even if you're mainly cooking at home. Even the "ingredients" you buy at grocery stores are more processed.

Agreed, it's always a bit of a commitment to learn the options at first.

A 4090 is pretty great for playing Skyrim at 60 FPS, I'll have you know.

I have the same gripe with the aluminum chassis on laptops. I got a cheap Thinkpad Chromebook for personal use and even though the material on the X1 Carbons is a fingerprint magnet, at least it isn't chilly every time you rest your hands on it.
