Shits kinda on fire and it's probably like 50% the USs fault.

But we kind of tend to start getting pissy with our pms after about 10 years,

First, no the shelf price is not altered.

Second the final price at the register is rounded to the closest 5 cent.

Some times you'll go up, sometimes you'll go down. It all breaks even in the end.

Not sure how paying cash would make you want to use pennies, your final at the till will be rounded up or down so that you aren't paying more than usual over time.

The prices on shelves don't change when you drop the penny.

Final cost is just rounded to the nearest 5 cent at checkout if you pay in cash.

Several countries got rid of the penny already, we still have pricing listed to the 1 cent. If you pay cash it's rounded to the nearest 5cent if you pay with card it's not rounded at all.

Nothing changes you just don't spend money minting coins that cost more than their value, and don't have to wait behind someone digging through their wallet for those pennies that they "swear are in here somewhere"

But compared to the other online news media cbc is consistently better than those.

You speak and act like a 13 year old trying to be a "mature adult".

Also the idea of deleting a post then going oh whoops I wanted more feedback on that let me make another just seems odd. Like just make a post once and leave it, delete it if you get harrasedd about it I guess but don't go making a new one in that case.

They sell it to metal scrap recyclers who will then melt it down, and sell it back to industry for use.

I mean most people aren't aware of what colour's are bad for colourblindness, also orange and green make sense based on the content, Firefox is orange and money is usually green.

In the nicest way possible, you are likely colorblind then.

It's green and orange, not exactly difficult typically.

I grocery shop basically every other day, means I only need a single bag at a time. I also happen to live across the street from the grocery store.

This idea that groceries need to be bought in 18wheeler quantities sucks, but is because America can't fathom being closer than 10 miles to any shopping.

Also just ignore that core routers are super specialized to moving packets as fast as possible. Having to inspect every packet would ruin them, and literally nuke service speeds across the country.
