I bought mine refurbished directly from Vitamix and saved a fair bit. Daily usage, so I wanted the full warranty.

I inherited my cuisinart food processor, it’s from the early ‘80s or so, going strong. I do use a stick blender a lot more, though.
Oooo, sepi gets it!
I live in rural Canada, our local (left coast) grocery has the palm-oil-free NZ licorice RJ’s, which is pretty good, and a specialty confectionery in the village nearby has some great icelandic licorice but it’s expensive.
But at 6K km I guess you are on the prairies, so good luck on the licorice hunt eh!
User LemmyKnowsBest publicly claims that all laws are just, fair, and reasonable.
Yes, we have a lot of wonderful adjectives in English. Swear, and be profane, for fun and profit. If you don’t want to use The Vulgar Tongue, then lean on the lexicon.
The black bar really adds no decency, it’s performative and viewed by many as a form of hypocrisy.
Since this is a textual medium run with adult behavioural standards, the rule that infantilizes profanity with absurd fucking censorship is cringeworthy and likely to be mocked or pilloried.
Dude, now you’re making it personal with totally the wrong person. What a dork.
Yes, this is all self-evident to anyone who recognizes overconsumption and premature or planned obsolescence.
My point is that advertising and other misinformation makes it extremely difficult for the average person to make rational decisions about technical issues when making purchases, so blame lies much more with companies, governments, and culture than the teeming hordes you look smugly down on.
Oh yes, advertising doesn’t work, which is why it’s fucking everywhere
Yeah it’s great how the law is complex enough to criminalize any aspect of your life that is needed for persecution!!
This is a good time to mention how we have been propagandized about the Luddites.
This is precisely the issue they had with the newindustrial tooling up they were facing, it wasn’t the tools, per se, that they objected to, but the de skilling and Disenfranchisement of the way those tools were being deployed by industrialists.
Being a luddite was and is about ownership of the tools and abuse by capitalists on skilled workers, and the disruption of our important knowledge base and skill sets.
Hey bud, it’s just more blinkered parochial exceptionalism, should be used to it.
Canadians are tankies… wot?
Union jobs in schools get a decent wage. The bitter joke is how you folks got uneducated away from economic solidarity.
Teacher spouse comes home absolutely wrecked after an 11-hour day, often falls asleep at 8:30 pm on workdays. Goes in on weekends to catch up on the workload.
The cushy jobs are the admin.
Arrr, we had the ships and sailors back then to make yer dreams come true, matey!
OK trankies are tiresome but the comment was on point.
I was once on a train in Italy and the train had a wildcat strike. It was just that train and only in that one location. Everyone on the train was resigned, because it’s part of the culture.
Italy has had a long history of radical communist and anarchists, actually having political status and pushing back continuously. Here we are, trying to make it part of our own local cultures. There’s a lot of work to do.

The 5200, kind of a modern version of the classic original.
It was around $550 CAD, about $150 off at the time. Search the manufacturer’s website for “reconditioned”, and keep checking as the stock changes.
