What did your parents refrigerate? Mine refrigerated bread.
  • I have found the opposite, a vented breadbin keeps it cool and moisture escapes. put a bag in the fridge and the temp difference brings moisture out and condenses on the inside of bag, then boom mokd next day.

  • A lesbian couple was brutally beaten by group of men in Halifax. Police still haven't filed charges
  • I wondered the same, race was never a thing at our grade achool or highschool either in 80s or 90s. Like it never crossed our minds to think the brown/black kid, they were just kids, and some were the super popular kids. One of my white friends was super into rap and breakdancing and his entire friend circle was black. They called each other niggah as a greating ( but ER ending back then) Once I got into a career though I met a lot of the generation above me that were racist assholes. i'm not sure why our gen didn't win out over the older gen.

  • Just human decency, when you move to a new country you adopt their cultural ettiquette and obey their laws. If you move anywhere and tgink you can just be a terrible person while waiting for citizenship, then you don't represent the country. Its like probation at a job

  • Is 13 too young to work? A Saskatchewan proposal has reignited debate around kids and labour
  • What exploitation angle? I was paid the same minimum wage an adult would get. And as a kid that spent tons of time outdoors with friends, exploring nature, kayaking etc, it really didn't cut into that, as you were done your shift and still had 5-6 hours of daylight to enjoy the summer. If I wasn't working I would have wasted that time warching rerun cartoons, you can only swim so much in the pool so much before your skin prunes. lol

  • Is 13 too young to work? A Saskatchewan proposal has reignited debate around kids and labour
  • I worked at a farm around 12-13 saved enough to quit and buy my first computer, it was awesome. Then 13-14 working at a convienence store. I don't see an issue working, you learn the actual value of time and money without ma and pa paying for everything. By very early 20s, I owned my own house, cars, motorcycles etc. Kids going from only school life to full time career have a terrible time adjusting to whar that life change is

  • Canada 'sleepwalking' into cashless society, consumer advocates warn
  • The "freedom" convey blocked ottawa streets and shut down businesses for a month, over vaccines. at that stage it was an illegal protest and to force compliance the government froze assets of the major organizers. While it is a scary overreach, the protesters were disrupting residents that lived there with constant honking in the night, the blocking of streets limited emergency workers. They seemed to think they could just do what they wanted, but peaceful protest is impeding traffic temporarily then letting traffic through, the "freedom" people trod over everyone elses freedoms and damaged the economy of that region for a month.

  • Am I overthinking it?
  • Containers are great to keep OS separate from apps, but VPN seems pretty integral to OS, so I don't see an issue using rpm-ostree. Containers often prove challenging because of not being able to get permission or share data between apps ( on purpose )

  • Tenacious flu
  • In Britsh Columbia, Canada we get 5 Personal Emergency days as paid leave, and 3 PEL unpaid. For somebody in generally good health this is more than adequate, for somebody with health issues you would have to go to doc and get short term disability leave for extended days off

  • Work from home
  • Paying for commute time for regular workers is not going to happen, for many many decades you getting to work is your own issue...thus why we find a place near highway access or near transit. asking a company to pay travel means they will just hire somebody that lives close by

  • Work from home
  • Same, my manager contacts me a handful of times throughout the year, the rest of the time he trusts I'm doing what I am tasked to do. We had a company wide meeting at head office requiring travel for everyone, the schedule was on my kid's birthday. I conveyed that I would be missing the bday, and they shifted meeting a few days to accommodate. Not all corporations are heartless slave drivers

  • Buddy wants his beans

    Hot day, Buddy wants some cool beans.
