To be fair, it's like 8 people and a few thousand bots.

I bought a block of cheese for $10. Yesterday someone offered me $12 for it. Today someone offered me $8 for it. Where did the $4 go?

Long time hobbyist home brewer here. Nobody is stopping you from home distilling. The required gear has long been publicly available. With either boozy category, one doesn't take up this hobby to save money. There's a large investment in gear and time to get it done.

It's taken me close to 10 years of home brew experience, and probably over to $20k in supplies and equipment over that time to make beer that's on par with craft breweries... 5 gallons of beer at a time.

The conversation ratio on mash to beer is mostly beer. The conversation ratio on mash to finished drinkable liquor is a joke in comparison. Multiple distillations if you want something that's at best bottom shelf. Forget about aging.

Yep. When you heat distill with care you can maintain a couple degrees of precision to better separate ethanol from the ugly stuff. Freeze distilling concentrates all the nasty bits and just removes water.

They learned their lesson after 2008. That lesson was, the government will bail them out. These people and companies don't care.

Very true. In this case though, it's a fabricated story. The airline has publicly stated that this didn't happen. It's only been reported by a far right German rag, and re-reported by other right wing media. This also is close to election time in Germany and stories like this help push their agenda.

This shouldn't be shocking to anyone who pays attention. Every 2 years in america there's some impending migrant crisis that evaporated around November 5th, like migrant caravans and such.

It predates him by far, but yes. It just goes to show how effective nearly a century of government propaganda can be.

I'm all for paying people a living wage but these tourists and their symbolic actions will change nothing. Black Americans have been boycotting tipping culture for decades with no effect.

Republicans spend their term(s) wrecking the economy, then some people get pissed when the Democrats get control and don't push the emergency "fix everything right now" button.

I'm not shocked. I used to love their shoes but the last couple pairs I bought dropped noticeably in comfort and quality. The enshitification rolls on

Fads gonna fad. At least pogs didn't wreck the environment

You'd be surprised at how cheap indiana politicians can be bought for. If the stoners here could organize a go fund me and donate the cost of a taco bell meal each we'd have legal weed.
