It’s attached by two “leashes” and if you yank it a bit the other rips off making it pretty much what you described but it’ll still tangle all over your face when you try to drink straight from the bottle and also now you have the sharp bit poking you every time you screw and unscrew the cap. This is not the only design we have. I just happen to shop at LIDL and their bottles are all like this. Some other designs are slightly better.

My pocket knife aswell. I used to recycle 100% of my plastic bottles before. Now I recycle 99.8% as there’s always this tiny piece that I cut off and throw in the trash. Same as that metal clip on lighters that’s supposed to stop children from being able to ignite them. It’s the first thing I rip off when I buy a new one.

The cap pokes my face if I try to drink from it without tearing it off. When I tear it off there’s then a sharp edge that pokes my hand every time I open or seal it.

I hate this so much. I swear I have never in my life returned a bottle without the cap. How would you even lose it in the first place? What psycho opens a bottle and discards the cap? Now my pocket knife usage has increased 300% as I’m cutting this sharp plastic thinghy away every time and I’m creating way more plastic waste than ever before. I agree with a lot what the EU does but this is idiotic.

I wasn’t on Facebook to begin with but I also had to create a personal profile in order to make a bussiness profile. Not a huge issue in my case as I never put anything up on the personal one.

I don’t mind this at all. My friends already are not interested in anything I say so I might aswell chat with the AI like I already do with chatGPT.

Lemmy definitely is by-far the best platform to keep up with what’s going on on twitter.

I feel so wise now for having landed as an user of both independently

I never upgraded from Win 7. I used in untill Steam stopped its support and now my gaming rig runs on Linux.

I do it so that I can browse c/all too

My community block list is about 450 items long and the one for users is even longer.

When I speak of women as a group I don’t mean literally every single one. That’s not how averages work.

Throught history the role of a man has been a provider and a protector. Choosing a high status mate is in the best interest of the woman and ultimately her child. This same behavior holds true thru the entire animal kindom. Things like height, strenght and status are for men what a tail is for a peacock. It’s in our biology. And again… We’re speaking of averages.

Yet you chose to reply nevertheless

Yes it is.

This is how convincing statements like that are when you just make a claim and then don’t back it up with anything.

Maybe they should try dating a conservative. It’ll come with its own downsides but if it’s a manly man you’re after I’d say that statistically you’re probably more likely to find one at that side of the isle. I’m sure this is not at all controversial thing to say.

While I’m at it I do agree with the underlaying issue here; a great number of modern men can’t do much of the things a stereotypical man could do say 40 years ago. Being able to stand up for yourself and to build and fix things for example is something women do care about wether they admit it or not. It’s one of those things that’s not exactly fair but true nevertheless. It’s biological and they can’t help it.

As far as I know doing either of those things is against the law in the US aswell.

That’s literally what people are already doing and that’s why rental scooters are getting banned in many cities; they just leave them laying around where they shouldn’t and it’s a massive nuisance to everyone.

I left Instagram when it became almost exclusively videos and now TikTok is allowing pictures. This is a weird world.

Here’s how to do it.

How do you know it’s plastic? I doubt that it is. Fabric can be made airproof by wetting it. That’s how you can use your pants as a life vest too.
