Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

In Canada a pint is a legal measurement of 20oz / 568ml
If you advertise beer on the menu as a pint, it must be at least 19.5oz excluding head(allowable margin of error)
What happens though is countless places advertise a pint, and then give you something like 16-18oz which is against the law.
It's gets harder tell what you're getting as well when they serve in non standard pint glasses, or glasses without a pint mark.
bring your own pint glass. and a lawyer to every bar you go to. bam ez money
Pay for your law degree this way then be the lawyer to save on costs! Travel the country for free indefinitely!
This is something that happens every year at the Oktoberfest in Munich. Legally, the "Maß" should be 1l, but the standards office regularly measure the contents way below that mark, even if one allows for a certain margin of error.
