I recall visiting The Henry Ford Museum years ago and marvelling at the mac n' cheese that could have fed like three people for only $5 (something in that price range I can't exactly recall), or how a medium size McDonalds coffee in the U.S. is about a large in Canada. Naturally, I also saw more bloated bellies on men and people in mobility scooters for obesity than I see on an average day in Canada. How does the quality compare between the US and Canada, with the same or similar companies? I mean you can make big, fatty servings of Mac n cheese for very little money. There won't be any quality cheese or cream in it that's for sure, but I do remember rather eating bigger portions than quality portions back when I was a student. | ||

I can't exactly remember the taste to compare, but I'd not expect much of a significant difference in taste and quality from the same product shared between the two countries. Though I'm reading that U.S laws for food additives in meat, poultry, dairy and processed foods are laxer compared to Canada, and Canadian processed food tends to avoid HFCS — while it's abundant in foods down south, so maybe it's more subtle or health-related. | ||

(Looking back I'm so confused. Did they bother to have anyone add up the numbers they had proposed? It's a crazy amount of calories). Edit: Just checked the new food pyramid. It still recommends this, but notes that it's only for teen boys. The amounts recommended in general are really high. | ||

I'm halfway through Season 3, and yeah i met Ralph I thought Richie was an asshole but Ralph is something else, he just got promoted to captain and his son wants to do Meadow. Just heard there's a prequel movie coming out later in the year, September. James son will be playing Tony, The Many Saints of Newark | ||

There are some QoL mods that will make it a good deal easier to pick up too. Common Sense and Colony Manager do a lot to minimize the most boring and time consuming elements of the micromanagement. Before I installed Common Sense I would have an issue where colonists would occasionally barf in the kitchen, and then just keep cooking without cleaning up, resulting in them making contaminated food that makes the whole colony ill lol | ||

I was big into using the IRC around this time, and I don't think any current posters used TL-ABL IRC to recall, but I was pretending to be a Japanese exchange student (using that as some kind of cover to explain my skeelz at dota and being unknown prior) and met some neat friends along the way. I'm still good friends with jaaaasper to this day. Some of the old IRC convos and threads were good and I look back on them fondly, like this masterpiece I remember you joining the channel and trolling packrat for a solid 2-3 weeks in TL-ABL irc. Good memories, I miss the irc days. | ||

or the day after. tomorrow we have separate plans, so, it varies. It's not a strict yes / no. We want to try to celebrate life more, so every occasion, no matter how capitalistic, is kinda welcome. There's a German proverb for that. "Man muss die Feste feiern, wie sie fallen". The translation engine spat out: "Christmas comes but once a year". In my own english words it means something like: you have to take the celebrations as they come. or: you have to celebrate when the opportunity comes. | ||

On another note, I agree with Omni. Would love to see some of these classic "dive" players just get absolutely knocked the fuck out  | ||

Good memories, I miss the irc days. didn't take much to trigger packrat tbf I have reviewed 10 overwatch cases, all of them pointless. Stating the obvious but this feature probably should've come out a long time ago. It could use a couple QOL changes and maybe give role queue tokens as an incentive. Which they could merge with classic queue to an extent. dota is fun | ||
