All baking recipe ingredients should be in weight, not volume.
  • Always 2nd bowl. Having a more sensitive scale helps with it updating faster. You can also tap the scale to try and get it to update.

    I use a 0.1g/2kg scale for most things, I also have a 1g/5kg one I never use. I can't find it rn but I also have a 0.01g/100g scale for when smartasses on the internet tell me to weigh a 1/8 tsp of pepper.

  • All baking recipe ingredients should be in weight, not volume.
  • In my opinion every recipe should be in weight unless there's a good reason to put it in volume. The idea of washing half a dozen individual little measuring cups to prepare one recipe is absurd. Slap a bowl on your scale and go to town.

  • I asked Food Basics if they're using facial recognition

    I wanted to know if my local Food Basics store is tracking me.

    I looked at the privacy policy on foodbasics.ca and not finding any mention of this, but wanting to be sure, I emailed their Privacy Officer.

    This is the email I sent:

    >Hello, > >I shop at the food basics store at [Address] in [City], > >I would like to know if you use facial recognition or identification technology in the store? And if so, for what purpose, and if the information is stored for how long? > >Thank you, >[Me]

    Here is the response I got:

    ! >Hello, > >I confirm that Metro does not use facial recognition technology or any other technology that allows the identification of individual at the Food Basics stores. > >Best regards >Eliane >Legal Counsel

    Just want to share to encourage everyone to learn about and exercise your consumer privacy rights.

    Explain Like I'm 5 (ELI5) @lemmy.world Baggins [he/him] @lemmy.ca

    ELI5 why so many countries are supporting Israel committing genocide?

    When I was in school we were taught genocide is a crime against humanity, now the USA and other countries act like Israel has blackmail material on all their leaders. What causes so many countries to be supporting them like this?

    Peel police to announce arrests in Pearson Airport gold heist

    The timing of this immediately made me think of the article posted the other day about there being no news since it happened a year ago.

    Also found this: Arrests in $20-million Toronto airport gold heist stem from cross-border gun running plot
