They are exaggerating. The foodservice packs top out at 10 gallons/37.85 liters as it becomes too heavy.

The 10 gallon size is for food service. The gallon size is for large families. I knew a couple with ten kids who would kill a gallon of mayo quickly.

All food and drinks are sold in metric amounts which typically are also very close to an imperial measure.

Restaurants use a 10 gallon bucket (37.8 liters).

No and that’s pretty fucking queer, buddy. /s

The 1996 McDonalds Monopoly game was one of the games that the sweepstakes company fixed, right?

Yeah living near NYC there are so many great free shows that you can easily find new favorites.

This Thursday Big Freeda is doing a show in Brooklyn for free.

After a few dozen you are tipsy. If there’s booze it’s a different story. This tasting always had Hans Reisetbauer near the door with his incredible eau de vies.

Even spitting you still swallow a bit. Most in the trade spit at tastings into the spit buckets. You’ll be fine trying 5 wines in an hour but I would be tasting dozens of wines for hours. It adds up after a while.

I have a Harris tweed Teapot Cozy. It is one of my favorite things in my kitchen. I should have thought of that.

That is not my understanding though I am not a lawyer.

I think this is more for the random person that attacks people for being fans of things eg adults attacking adults because they like Legos

Legally speaking in the USA anything after the first is driving while intoxicated/under the influence (different states use DWI or DUI).

Working in the booze biz you are sadly correct though. I had a wine rep a few years back offer to pay for my parking in NYC if I went to a tasting. I told him I was taking the train and he was surprised. He shouldn’t be.

I think it is accident and emergency wards

No, I am saying the crash of Evergrande was in no way a planned or negotiated event. Everyone knew there was trouble but no one “popped” it intentionally.

It’s a trend observable in all capitalist nations.

Ok 100% of nations

If you develop enough, the rate of profit falls, and so you need to expand outward to profit. This is the basis of imperialism, the carving out of the global south for profit. Across the west, this is a fact, even if it manifests in different ways.

Ok so there are exceptions that make it not observable in all nations only those that have met specific situations (presuming any of the claims are valid which has never been demonstrated to be the case).

It’s A or B. It cannot be observable in all capitalist systems if it has not happened in most and likely cannot happen in them ever. That means the presumption is not inherently valid like you are treating it.

You are treating your opinions as fact. Others here are doing the same. No one has been able to provide anything to support this. They only engage in ad hominem or complete misunderstandings of the claim.

They didn’t intentionally pop this bubble. It popped and they have done everything in their power to limit the damage. China might not be forthright about their policies but they do seem to be interested in preventing social collapse.

This starts with you not getting that “all” means 100% not 100% with exceptions. Those backong your claims aee those that also do not see the numbers argument I was making and most seem to uncritically accept the propaganda you have accepted, so why would I listen to a larger number of people who aren’t getting it?

If one person or 100 people claim the earth is the center of the solar system are you any more likely to accept that?

Did you mean default for lemmy or default for the system utilized by most nations? I took you as meaning the latter

Except factually speaking, China has increase wealth inequality since their initial revolution and again in the cultural revolution so it really appears like they are abandoning socialism and giving it lip service like the USA is abandoning liberalism as a whole.

You are ignoring realities to make it fit the propaganda you have accepted from the Chinese media/propaganda sphere. Hey does the state, billionaires, or the working classes own the press in China?

The fact is kiddo. You have accepted propaganda and I am forcing you to confront the hypocrisy and inaccuracy within the notions you claim inappropriately as fact. Nothing I have said is incorrect unless te only permitted perspective is one that wholly accepts leftist theories as truth.
