I'd second swimming or in general doing stuff in water. The difficult part will be to find a place to do that which can accommodate your particular needs, i.e. if you don't wanna actually swim, does the pool have area for that, is it not full of kids (not just kids) who won't pay any attention to you and potentially hurt you while playing

Most things in our regular day-to-day lives would leave residue, even water (maybe deionized wouldn't?) just a matter of how much and how noticeable. About the soap, well if you smell it on your hands after wash, then it's still there and you will rub it onto stuff. At least it's just soap tho...

I don't know if you can reasonably remove all contaminants off your skin, unless you plan to like glove up or destroy the skin by washing waayyyyy too often. But you know, good hygiene will keep things you touch nicer for longer so keep at it.

Tbf unless you're really anal about it, you're never going to have perfectly clean hands all the time. But if your controller is getting discoloured quickly and regularly, then you can probably tell where the problem lies regardless of its colour.
I have similar issue with mouse, but it takes about 3-4 years of regular use for it to get really noticeably discoloured or start rubbing off top coat, to a point where even cleaning with IPA doesn't do anything. And that's a black mouse.
Also worth noting, many hand creams are a big no-no imho. Some of that shit destroys your gear, worse than any dirt.

Probably if you don't wash your hands very often....or at all? Just guessing

Gotta warn you though, seems the only nice piece of nature you'll get is on the border with BC and they did a real number on the environment in the north.

But you guys can probably actually fix it rather than celebrate CO2 like what these close are doing now with provincial legislature.

Can we swap Albertans with Coloradans though?

Interesting, I recall a colleague in UK mention that it was costing her up to 20k a year. That was her max but not always/everywhere - would have been almost 30k USD at the time, so it sounds considerably cheaper in US but obviously a lot more land available and affordable

Hold on just a minute now, I'm sure he must have emptied himself at least once.

Any noticeable durability issues? Had my Samsung stick die completely just outside of warranty window....

Maybe it's late apple season there and with the news of countries blocking apple exports to Russia, he clearly decided to take matters into his own hands and to knock some apples off the trees, but the hammer kept falling back on his head. Self-inflicted accident, nothing to see here.

Careful, some might think you're a jerk 🤣

I don't know whether anything changed or it's down to brand but I have no issues baking strudels and other pastry with similar dough from soy milk, including doing some simple buns from dry yeast, but obviously that lacked the sourdough taste, which I'd like to try replicate with use of some acids next (e.g. vinegar). Don't really do much else though, so can't confirm for other uses.

We specifically buy Kirkland brand (cheapest alternative) and more recently actually started grabbing the vanilla soy milk from US instead of local. I used to hate sweetened soy milk some 5+years ago, but this is somehow different. And it works great for crepes as well - actually better than regular milk IMO.

Idiot couldn't handle his new toy in the rainy Metro Vancouver [OC]

Managed to hit the concrete barriers on both sides of a 3 lane highway. Luckily didn't hit anyone but traffic was about 3km long and hour later and caused another accident within the traffic jam itself.

Edit:grammar, and obligatory - I took the frame from my partner's video who captured it for me, as I was busy avoiding the debris scattered all over the highway trying not to get a puncture. I don't touch my phone while I drive, and hope you don't either.
