I believe they get chipped up, floated based on density and then likely segregated by color using a air jet conveyor thing. That or they go into darker plastic blends like black which hides all other colors.

I’m sure the question has been asked a thousand times, I couldn’t find an answer :( Is there a USB-A to magnet charger for iPhone 13? I have the C plug chargers in the house but only have an A or cigarette outlet in my truck. 2015 F150 if that matters. Just wondering what people do?

Reply to comment by sammer003 in TIL: 5 pin bowling was invented in Canada - and is mostly only played in Canada by sammer003

Place I worked at had a bowling alley and the computer could be set to 9, 8 and 7 pin along with two other games like tic tac toe or something. I’d inquire at your local alley, it’s just a setting on the computer in my case. Good luck :)

Nobody was at Guilty Pleasurez Dezzert Cafe at the time since it typically opens at 11 a.m. - That’s a unique business name.

Reply to comment by autocorrectfool in TIL that due to "Subjective Age" most children and adolescents feel older than they really are. But this switches at around 25. By age 30, around 70% of people feel younger than they really are, with the discrepancy between actual age and subjective age growing over time. by AspireAgain

Reply to TIL that the labels on Angostura bitters bottles are intentionally annoying. The original brothers entered a competition and due to a miscommunication, wound up with wrong size labels. A friendly judge suggested the brothers make that label their signature. The advice stuck. by dmanlian

Message could be scrambled or the whole panic could be over easy. There’s always a sunny side up to be found, even for those who’ve Benedict before. Apoach with caution.

I think corruption, distrust of local currency vs USD and diesel shortages have done them in. There’s a lot of import tensions/issues. I don’t recall the details but they’re volatile for currency.

Reply to comment by Fantastic_Bar3109 in Found some old Reddit threads from 15 years ago talking about the 07-08 recession by Fantastic_Bar3109

We know what’s “capable” so it’s “forecasting” and sensationalizing. No different than Katrina reporting and hyping up NO being hit, only for it to “miss” the French quarter and reporters didn’t have material ready for the 9th ward being hit. People get glued to the fear, they don’t watch if “everything is fine”.

11/11. It’s their “Black Friday” on steroids with Prime Days added and it still beats both in a take of $130B. Baba made $85B during the last Singles Day. Obviously makes a lot of years sales for vendors and is a good indicator of spending habits.

Reply to comment by Quicklyquigly in Amazon lost half its value this year as tech stocks got crushed and recession fears grew by predictany007

That’s half my issue is that crap. The other half is, I want a bag of peanut M&M’s I know are $12 at my store, I’ve got a thousand different hits and pack outs to figure out. I wish there were a store mode like Target or Walmart so I can dial in shit that I normally see and am actually looking for. At least eBay for other things I can filter down to US only and reduce noise. I just never really got Amazon once the other retailers caught up with searching.
