15% has been the standard for many decades, and even that is supposed to be optional.

It’s identical, but it’s not the same bits

Well it wasn’t even posted on your instance, so you’re already just viewing a thirdhand copy of it

Turn the question back at yourself, please.

I asked a simple, polite question for clarification. I’m not arguing about anything.

Also, you assume they’ve actually increased the number to keep the mass valid

I would assume so, and with good reason. The laws for that stuff are strictly enforced. There’s a margin of error, but we’re talking a few grams. Enough that one fewer tortillas in the package would put it over that limit and litigation would ensue.

Once they run out of old packaging

Packaging is cheap af. They’re not trying to run out their old packaging. I’m not saying that it’s not a lead-up to shrinkflation, just that they don’t care about old, leftover packaging. More likely, IME working in packaging, would be that they’re waiting for someone working on the machines to dial in the settings before switching to a different roll of film.

Anyway, I wasn’t trying to argue anything in the first place, just trying to get a grasp of OP’s point since they didn’t really explain what the issue was.

I’m not understanding what the issue is. Is it because they’re smaller than they used to be?

That kind of packaging is made pre-printed, and the product is sold by weight, so if they made them smaller, they added more to the package to make up for it.

Evolution doesn’t really work that way though. Peppers didn’t evolve spiciness to keep animals away, they essentially randomly developed a mutation that made them unpalatable to most animals, and that increased their odds of survival. It’s not doing X for Y reason, it’s X happening with Y as a consequence.

There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1, but none of them is 2.

Sounds to me like you’re just looking to be irritated by something and you chose this.

This place ain’t perfect, but it’s a step up from reddit

Obviously it’s the gulf coast water.

That’s 1440 slices of toast per day. Using random numbers from google, that’s 110k Calories worth of plain white bread. Assuming 6 people putting in the work, that’s a bit over 18k per cyclist for 24 hours cycled, who each would require about 12k Calories for the work put in.

However, this is just to toast the bread, not to make the bread. I’m being a little dumb and taking this hypothetical a bit too far.

That’s fair. But that’s still a lot of work for so little work, if that makes sense. Which is kind of what the demonstration showed.

A man at the peak of human athletic capability could barely put in enough energy on his own to slightly toast a piece of bread. Of course 6 people could put in one sixth of the effort, but that’s six people still working such a small output.

It would have to be a pretty big relay team. The recovery time for 2 minutes of all-out power exercise is pretty long.

Look at the size of this guy’s thighs. He’s a freak of nature (in the positive sense of the term) who trains for this specific type of exercise and had to stop after 2 minutes because he was in so much pain. I can’t imagine he’d be ready for another all-out run in less than a couple hours, and after two in a day, probably would need a day’s rest.

The energy used probably wouldn’t even heat the water for the showers though.

Not even close. Someone posted a video of an Olympic cyclist going all out running a 700 Watt toaster for 2 minutes, and he was exhausted after that. A water heater would be like 3000 Watts and would need to run for a long time to heat up an entire tank of water, which would last for just a couple quick showers.

Kilowatt-hours, not kilowatts. And it was 0.021.

He was basically going full blast for just under two minutes, and generated 0.021 kWh.

Isn’t that the purpose of a gym?

It’s all crap targeted at children that came out when you were already well into your teens.

Did you die?

The downside to that is that you have to be reading white text on black background, otherwise it’s the same as if it was backlit, and the text itself is lit up. E-ink displays require external light sources.
