Well let me think...

I know a few local supermarkets sell frozen chickpeas in bags of 500 grams. And I think, off the top of my head, the price ranges between 15 dkk ($2.24) and 40 dkk ($5.97), depending on if there's a sale on and which supermarket I go to. I know that Rema 1000 is on the cheaper end, and frozen vegetable products tend to go on sale pretty often, but it's never the same products, so it's very unpredictable when chickpeas go on sale. These prices include tax, as tax is not excluded from products in stores.

That means that 3 kg of frozen chickpeas would be between $14.44 (uaually when on sale) or $36.02.

Now, I can get dried beans and peas in much larger bulk from the various Arab stores in Copenhagen, but buying bags of dried goods from those stores comes with the risk of getting pantry moths. I'm still battling those little fuckers from the time I bought a large 5 kg bag of really high quality rice two years ago.

I live in Denmark.

There's no Amazon in Denmark. Basically anything bought from Amazon either comes from Germany or the UK, which makes Amazon probably the worst, most expensive option for any reason.

I can buy oats and flour on the cheap around here, but chickpeas and dried beans? That's very quickly sounding like $10 a day.

I have a little brother and little sister who still go to school in France. I'll ask them about it.

Americans getting pissed off at Europeans constantly making fun of them... And yet I'm still learning more ridiculous bullshit about that country.

Jesus christ, what a sad joke.

I've been across Europe. Gone to school in Ireland, The Netherlands, France, Sweden, and Denmark. I have NEVER seen this.

Finding the right mastodon instance was incredibly annoying. I use it, but barely. Most of the artists I follow are on Bluesky, anyway, which is a lot easier to use.

It's behaviour like yours that makes the world's problems stay the world's problems. Ironically you're the kind of person this thread is about.

I bought a Steam Deck. Irresponsible for the fact it mostly exclusively exists for gaming, and isn't a very productive item to buy.

But gods damn is that such a fun device!

Wasn't Firefox starting to implement some bullshit too?

 

I apologize if this video has already been posted here. I did a rudimentary look through the posts of the past few days and couldn't see it.

I want to get back into reading, so I'm thinking of getting a Paperwhite. But I have no idea if it's possible to transfer files to it from a computer, and I have no experience with pirating books.

Do I go to the same places I torrent movies and games or are there special places dedicated to E-Books?

EDIT: So many awesome answers on here! You guys have been very helpful. Thanks a lot!
