Yeah I can't imagine being the literal lowest paying company in town will do them any favors

Actually it's usually closer to 5%, but to avoid consumers getting mad most companies have internal variance limits of less. Still, 2% is pretty tight for manufacturing equipment. Despite the mass prevalence of corporate greed, it does end up being better for most companies overall to be on the slightly heavy end of net weight rather than lower end and most manufacturing guardrails and in line weight checks are calibrated with that in mind.

This is entirely due to the risk of images like this going viral and causing blowback for the company. So, to keep products on average a little heavier, posting things like this is great

What but what's in the book though??? I need that information

I work with IFF all the time and know many of their corporate employees and still had no idea this was happening. Good that the workers have been able to hold out this long, I worry the "ignore them until they are too poor to strike" tactic will get increasingly common

pushes up glasses TECHNICALLY you cant cast two leveled spells in one turn, even with action surge. Just one and everything else must be a cantrip.

And yes, I am fun at parties

I believe a lot of it also is the price, as someone who has worked in the plant based meat industry for years. It wouldn't be hard to design a product that is comparably priced with meat but it is seen as a premium space where more money can be charged so companies do charge more, from the finished food manufacturers to the ingredient suppliers. Also hard to compete price wise with meat subsidies, in the US anyway

We are planning our first trip to Japan in this upcoming february after a long postponing due to covid. Would love some tips from others here! We have dates but no specific ideas while there yet. More specific questions:

Recommended budget per day based on general costs of food and lodging there?

Recommendations for places to go while generally trying to avoid touristy locales?

Train for getting around while there or is there a better option?

How important to study basic Japanese?

Thanks!

Genuine question: what do you recommend instead? Not really excited to support Google via pixel either and didn't love my last iPhone. Is there a good choice anywhere?

I wish I could say this was in any way surprising to me

App for lemmy? (lemmy.world)

Maybe a dumb question, trying to get the hang of things over here. Is there an app for this? Or is that like a needs to be developed long term plan? Mobile functionality on my older mobile is fine but not as great as former 3rd party reddit apps but maybe that's an unreal standard here.

Thoughts?
