    • @MaciejZalucki
      @MaciejZalucki 4 роки тому +64

      Well, the other reason is the law. This bag has no logos or marks, simply making bag like that is counterfeit. As they mentioned, it's quite popular design in cheap bags, as it is designed to be convenient, people quite often get them for just regular bag price for daily use. Original bag is so expensive only because it is limited and made with special materials. The same way mobile phones prom Porsche Design are much more expensive than exactly the same regular phone. Just because it is limited edition with slightly improved quality (leather case etc).
      In overall, those original bags are so expensive not because of bag, but materials they use to make them and limit of production. It would be better to actually put things like albino crocodile skin on this list instead of bag made out of it. The same way Mercedes S class is not some rare, most expensive car on the earth. Mercedes covered with diamonds is. It still does not mean that it's Mercedes that is rare and expensive, those are diamonds. (Well, technically diamonds are worthless)

      Well when you have a high population and such a low consumer market by comparison you have to create jobs out of nothing, hence the justification for low automation. That means then the individual expectations of people are very high, because in order to be successful you need to be "the best egg boiler in the state". Leaving so very many people in Japan despondent when they can't meet these expectations and that's why the suicide forest sees a new death every 2 days.

    I use several types of salt, and I taste the diffence between them all. when they are mixed into something, the taste is going to be determined by the quantity and at what stage of cooking you put it in/on. In general salt added when something is already on a plate and served is not going to taste the same as the same amount added in the beginning of the cooking. Still, if regularly switching up your salt, you begin to notice the diffences. The same is true of water, and sugar.

    Correction: When they’re comparing black angus cattle prices to the cattle used for wagyu beef, he’s quoting auction prices for unregistered angus cattle. A registered black angus bull sold last year (2019) for $1.51 million. It was sold by Schaff Angus Valley ranch. We used to buy from them, and the prices could get real crazy real quick. A registered, unbred (open) cow there will routinely sell for more than $40,000.00. Unregistered angus may have other breeds in their lineage, and are sold on the hoof by the pound. Wagyu cattle are all registered, with a known lineage. So it’s not the same thing at all. This program is comparing apples to oranges on this one.

      Breed animals with modification.....to grow to adult size in 40 days and then die if they aren't killed. They live 10 years otherwise. Chickens.

    I live in New Zealand. When you mentioned manuka honey I was honestly kinda surprised. There are a few bee "museums" as such nearby to me that we visit whenever we go to a batch or campground. We usually pick up a few jars for about $50 max. They have a couple of free tastings usually as well and the taste is indescribable. It's like the difference between drinking some store-bought coke and 16-year-old scotch. It's so much more filled with flavour.

    My Chinese Crested (hairless) is my favourite breed. He is always close by, does not bark. Except for when the Doberman from next door jumped the fence and my small breed, did make two barking sounds but as quiet apart from then. Perfect. Soft and clean, they are perfect to massage all over.

      I switched years ago to Laser since way more prints before i have to exchange the cardridge and no drying out ink anymore. My father bought his first just for black in 2005 and just switched cause of driver issues with Win10 and he wanted color and he changed the cardridge only 2 times. Ink printers are a huge scam for a long time.

    Manuka trees aren't just native to NZ they are actually originally native to Australia and there are many different types.
    The name manuka is actually the only thing that is from nz, that honey can be found in NZ and Australia naturally.
