31·4 days agoWell on my county’s recycling website it literally says the cap cannot be recycled and must be removed and thrown in the trash. Im certain this was the case the last place I lived too.
If the EU has recycling centers that can process them together that’s great and the law makes sense.
Not sure what needs to change aside from heavily limiting the production of plastic, but recycling has basically always been bullshit. One small win for plastic bottles in the EU doesn’t solve the larger issue of every other mixed material or dirty plastic container that ultimately ends up in a landfill.
How many people clean and dry everything they recycle? How many people separate different plastics, mixed material items, or remove recyclable parts from things they throw away? So much of what can be recycled doesn’t get recycled.
Looks like less than 10% of what can be recycled gets recycled, and up to 30% of what ends up in a recycling centers is trashed anyway. It should never have been the consumers responsibility. Wish people would stop buying this crap.
Plastic is the worst of all https://oceana.org/blog/recycling-myth-month-plastic-bottle-you-thought-you-recycled-may-have-been-downcycled-instead/. This is nothing but performative. Might only falsly appease someone’s conscience.
As I understood it, the bottle caps are too small to be recycled seperately. They can’t be processed together with the bottle, and get tossed anyway. If attached, there’s a good possibility none of it gets recycled.
Just looked it up, depends on your local region. Mine requires caps be removed, and bottle rinsed and flattened.
5·6 days agoSo do you think they should be a legal requirement or not?
3·8 days agoI know a couple places with cheap sailing club memberships. One works out to about $30 per month, but you can volunteer for a free membership, and another is just $75 a year. Maybe you can find something like that, and if not, then consider just moving to a new city.
Im surprised by the people indicating that they don’t pull over on purpose, literally just to be an asshole… Tailgating is idiotic, but you can do something about it by getting out of the way. Its safer to have as much room around you as possible. Don’t tailgate, let people pass, and pass quickly. Who wants to drive right next to someone, in their blind spot or in yours? Use your controls to either speed up or slow down.
For the tailgater’s here, driving fast barely saves time on short trips. You might save as much as 2 minutes on your daily 20 mile commute driving like an absolute maniac. But who wants to risk a ticket or accident doing that everyday and then paying an increased insurance rate on top of potentially losing your car and spending time in the hospital with an insane medical bill?
4·11 days agoIf you’re doing this in the bay, study whatever you want and check out the Berkeley student coops. You don’t have to go to UC Berkeley to live in most of the houses. The math/cs/physics people there were the coolest I’d ever met.
Set up a test project I guess.
With a masters degree in mathematics, my response when someone wants me to do mental math is something like, “I can barely even count”, in reference to combinatorics, while I pull out my phones calculator.
Oh yeah, I’ve ate almost everyday since I was in the womb. Now, I eat at least 2000 calories every. single. day. A fascists balls would vaporize when I lick them.
12·29 days agoI cant believe an organization exists to improve lives based on decades of research, theory, and global practice in a system propped up by propaganda. God forbid we have democracy in the workplace. Workers are too stupid to own the means of production. Its better when those with the most capital can much more easily accumate more. That benefits everyone because it puts the brightest (ie wealthiest) people in charge, driven solely by their altruism. Capitalism has proven to be the best system ever developed.
Exactly how planes fly. I studied a bit of fluid dynamics in grad school and my professor was adamant that any explanation is incomplete without discussion of boundary layers.
In short the explanation was a couple things. The first is how ping pong balls generate lift with translation and rotation (or vorticity). Its basically the shape of the wing that helps with vorticity (this is what generates the pressure difference above and below the wing). The second is that you need laminar flow over the wing for vorticity to take place, and this is achieved when a thin layer of turbulent air surrounds it, the boundary layer. It moves the stagnation points towards the back (encouraging laminar flow) and reducing drag.
The same process is the reason golf balls have dimples on them, to help form a turbulent boundary layer, moving the stagnation pounts, reducing drag and allowing the ball to go further.
“Tripping the boundary layer” can be achieved by increasing speed on the runway, a strong head wind, rough spots on the wing, or how you might see windsurfers pump their sail, or someone pumping on a hydrofoil board in the water.
Keep things as simple as you can. I swear people make their lives more difficult than it has to be. Get rid of stuff, cancel your subscriptions, keep your living space clean, give xanax a try, sell your kids… That kind of thing. But otherwise, when something comes up, you just kind of deal with it.
You don’t have to go spelunking if you don’t want to. Turn the cover inside out, lay the duvet on top, tie off the corners if you have ties, and turn it all back right side over.
1·1 month agoI just don’t see anything wrong with the current regulation on class 1 and 2 ebikes. Casual cyclists on an analog bike can already achieve speeds of 20 mph, at least for a short time. In fact, those speeds are often essential in certain situations in car centric towns/cities. As someone that used to commute by bike in the city, at times I’d have felt safer if I could have gone a little faster.
26·1 month agoPretty convinced its mostly always projection, so in this case the trans hate is actually self hate. Maybe someone should send jkr some testosterone.
I mostly talk about cooperatives. Sometimes I’ll explain its a form of stateless socialism, but the point is that workers or members own the means of production. Multi stakeholder models can still be compatible with the current shitstain that is public ownership. In which case the biggest issues can be somewhat mitigated by worker elected board member control. We need governmental support, laws, regulation, subsidies, tax breaks, etc for cooperatives, but capitalist will always argue they just need to compete in the market like everyone else. You know like how traditional capitalist firms compete with subsidies, tax breaks, favorable regulations and laws, bailouts, etc.
Yeah they do, and one has a bunch of windsurfing gear too as well as wet suits and foul weather gear you can wear. A whole fleet and lessons included.
