I think the old plastic rings have been banned in some states. For cans I’ve mostly seen beer cans now coming in a thicker but more widely recyclable ring. Sometimes they come in paperboard boxes like the larger packs do and suspect that’s where the industry is moving. I’ve still seen something like the old rings come with soda in plastic bottles. Really not sure why they haven’t changed.

This has been around since 2016, though only available for sale since 2018. It uses waste byproducts of the brewing process to create a biodegradable/compostable cardboard-like substance. It can be consumed by some animals like manatees/turtles/fish but it’s not really intended to be fed to them, just more that it’s safe if it ends up in the environment.

Why should a washing machine need updates to begin with?

I mean, a lot of the early astronauts were muscle-bound nerds. They were in the military and mostly working as test pilots; physical fitness was paramount!

They made the FART lady get a new plate after someone complained, although they let her keep the actual plate. I would bet the same thing happened to the SHART lady after this got more publicity.

People used to post Piped/Invidious links all the time, but that eventually became a problem because it meant the link often went to a different proxy than the one that might be a user’s preferred server, and it made it harder to copy the link for use with a preferred server. After some discussion, the consensus became that people should just post the YouTube URL as the main link so users could utilize the preferred proxy they likely already have configured, and then (optionally) include a Piped/Invidious link in the body text for those who don’t currently use a proxy but would like to try it.

Digging deeper by following the link to List of gaps in Interstate Highways, the Pennsylvania Turnpike Authority is finally fixing this:

Local businesses have lobbied to keep the gap to avoid a perceived potential loss of business. Despite this, the Pennsylvania Turnpike has announced plans to close this gap by directly connecting I-70 to the Turnpike in September 2024. Completion of the construction is expected in 8-10 years.

But people won’t invest trillions of dollars into Simulated Intelligence!

Having not watched the video, was the leak a real accident or one of those times where governments decide to experiment on their own soldiers without telling them they’re in an experiment?

Wait, she went on parental leave from her job, as in having a newborn baby, and used that time to get a master’s degree? Either the baby didn’t spend much time with mom or the degree is a joke, because I have a really hard time imagining having the energy to work on a serious master’s degree in a year or less while taking care of an infant!

I would like to have seen Montana.

Is one a lot?

I don’t even feel like this is a meme, just a valid point I don’t think Lucas even realized he was building

Very strange! They have replied to your comment with the link, but if you don’t see it this is the link:

Don’t worry, Facebook still creates a shadow profile to know who you are and track you

And the paint?

I haven’t paid much attention, but I had some myCharge units I bought at Costco last year get recalled. I suspect a lot of these have cheap batteries from suppliers that don’t put much effort into consistent quality. That’s “okay” with alkaline batteries where the worst that happens is they leak and maybe ruin the device they were in. Have poor quality with a lithium battery and you get a fire or even explosion. I suspect with Anker or some of the other brand names at least you’ll actually get a recall if there’s a problem. A lot of the other no-name, fly-by-night brands on Amazon or elsewhere probably don’t even give you that.
