Do you have any Asian/Indian/other ethnic grocers? Stores with a butcher counter? Are there farms nearby? you can troll whatever grocery stores you do have near you for last day of sale meats/produce and as long as you cook or freeze them the same day or the next day, they're perfectly fine. From some of your comments, you live out west, maybe try to find a few friends to split a pig, that can get the price per pound way down.

I can't tell if you're over-thinking, under-thinking, or just plain havent invested time into grocery planning.

1. an 8kg bag of basmati or jasmine rice can be found for $15 (freshco), if you have one cup (dry, 200g) of rice that will last you 40 meals. It's about 200 calories per serving and has vitamin B as well as a handful of minerals.
2. Chicken can be found for $3/lb (food basics) or less if you are patient and shop around and is ~120g protein per lb of meat
3. Add in some beans $2.97 at walmart for a 900g bag of dry kidney beans, each serving gets you fiber and protein, also 25 servings.

$110 per month and you have staples and 60+g of protein per day. That leaves $35 per week to shop sales/flash food/etc for fruit, veg, and other meat.

It's PR bullshit to give an excuse for backtracking basically

For a non load bearing wall, the biggest consideration is going to be hanging drywall which is why you'll see either 16" or 24" OC (to align with a 48" wide sheet). Since the wall isn't meant to hold any weight above it, there's a little more flexibility in where you place your studs, so you're probably fine without that extra stud.

That being said, check your local building code, there might be a regulation for that.

Probably something with a .ru TLD

Gallon jugs aren't as common as 4L bagged milk here though

At this point, it's even more difficult than that. You can have an amazingly popular candidate that is a shoe-in for the POTUS vote.... and they will be absolutely ineffective without the massive political machine that is the DNC/RNC backing them up. It's not just the house and senate seats, it's state government, municipal government, etc that also need representation by your new party. Tens of thousands of people need to be elected in positions in all levels before a new party gains enough political clout to even think about operating collectively at the national level.

Not to mention the fact that the judicial branch will still be packed with lifers with loyalties to the two incumbent parties.

With the current theory of how the moon was formed, it was in fact close enough to be touching the earth at one point... technically

More honest answer, it's generally breast meat but loaded up with binding agents, salt, and water. It's pretty obvious with the worse ones when you even slightly overcook them, and the chicken practically vanishes from inside the nugget because the water has evaporated.

The province that can't come up with anything better than to dig stuff out of the ground and sell it is complaining that we're bringing in too many educated people....

For as long as Google is part of FAANG, they will have a nearly unlimited supply of fresh grads to burn through, and fresh grads still line up to work there to get that name on their CV.

That would be an interesting idea.. IPO and issuing new shares incurs a 'tax' where say 10% of those shares belong to the government, with the end result that all publicly traded companies are 10% government owned

It sounds like you're talking about Weller style irons and the ones where the part you hold plugs directly into the wall are quite terrible. However, they are an industry standard and most soldering stations will use a Weller tip. I have a knock off Hakko 936 that's like 15 years old now and cost me $25 and it solders like a dream.

At least he went that route instead of other bigoted parents who actively drive their kids to self-harm/suicide and never learn this lesson.

I don't think it's a manufacturing thing, people sometimes use cast iron pans to melt lead for casting

Well, now I'm picturing crocheted swastikas :p

These are less for your education as it is for management/HR to absolve responsibility: "We trained them to not do

A billion people is probably the primary thing, and a large portion of the geography has a climate that's pretty ripe for diseases to flourish.
