Turning unpotable water into potable water with little or no additional cost, while not harming the environment, isn't exactly a loss.

Oftentimes, on men, they are, and they're quite proud of them.

I don't think that was the intent, more how much health care actually costs vs. how much just goes to pad people's wallets.

In an advertisement‽

It's appropriate if you follow up with investigations for the reasons that is happening and look for solutions to correct that. Other than, "Have you tried not being poor?" of course.

Hard agree. The amount of alcohol that humans can safely consume is approaching zero.

The reality hasn't changed, only our understanding of it.

The only thing about Carney is about calling for a review for that (already planned) purchase, and that the review will be ready at the end of the summer.

There are a lot of bad things you can say about Carney, but I don't see this as one of them. Yet.

You expect the guy who bought cases of toilet paper to worry about wasting it?

Well, there was a recent AI mistake which recommended sodium bromide, which causes psychosis. So results may vary, particularly by quantity.

I'm not sure how lazy you are, or how much you like to experiment, but someone on Lemmy mentioned Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day. While it isn't hyperbole, it will be a while before you reach this speed.

The big points for me are that most of the steps are, "do something else while stuff happens." There is no kneading and no need for special tools, although a big container you can mostly seal and something that can withstand having water poured into it while being at oven temperatures are a big help. A mixer with a dough hook is also helpful if you don't want to put in the effort to mix by hand, but a bowl, plastic wrap, a wooden spoon, and measuring spoons and cups are all you need.

I liked the results enough to buy their book, and everything I've made has turned out at worst alright (which isnt a whole lot because...lazy). Depending on the recipe, you can store the dough in the fridge for a couple weeks (do this regularly), or you can parbake and freeze loaves (never done this). Before doing this, I had only made bread in a bread machine, which never worked out too well for me, or helping my mom with kneading decades ago, which I hated.

Yeah, this was me. Actually seeing birds in the trees was a new experience. I recently got progressives and the adjustment was basically hours to no discomfort, minutes to being able to drive with them on.

But then the idiots who buy there devices would use the setting when not needed, some would inevitably die, and they would sue the car makers for letting them turn off an obviously necessary safety device. At least with these things, it shows you're disabling the safety device and so you're on the hook when you end your journey flying through a sheet of glass and into traffic at 40 miles an hour.
