I signed up to Facebook with fake details for market place and car groups (I do a lot of mechanical DIY)

People are good at different things depending on what they spend their finite time and energy on.

This was a while ago now but it seems to be fixed since I posted that comment

I'm just thinking of using what I already have.. I also suspect there is an efficiency sweet spot than running at full capacity

I was originally called deadlok, it was a gaming name I came up with when I was 10 and stuck to it other than contracting it a bit.

Good idea thanks

The way I see it, it's a good path to being able to move with less consequences to your joints. A bit like sugar free fizzy drinks? Are they good for you? No but if you can get to a healthier weight and then work from there they are a means to an end.

It's exactly why we store energy as fat in the first place, so when the getting is good it prepares us for when it isn't.

I always keep the isp provided router for the rare case i need support. On the flip side if the problem goes away it's a me problem.

Yeah I've worked IT in a food production environment and am familiar with setting up the products. When we went from catch weight (price per kg) to fixed weight products like ops we got loads of calls about packs being rejected and initially didn't understand why until reading more into how e weighing rules work. I can't remember the specifics as it was sometime ago but only a certain percentage can be below the target weight and above T1 and a smaller percentage can be between T1 and T2 which are the fall back weights.

Fortunately these rules are preprogrammed into checker weighers and weight price labellers so they setup is easy it's just getting the weights right going into those machines with minimum giveaway (if the batch weighs more than the the pack count x target weight that is called giveaway).

Yeah pretty sure these are European rules as we have the same thing in the UK. Basically the current batch needs to remain above the average weight if it drops under the target weight packs will start getting rejected until the average increases.
