You definitely do have to work harder to find more diverse viewpoints here. It's a bit of a chicken and egg problem. At least on mastodon you can specifically follow people who talk about things outside your realm of experience.

When I build stuff in Space Engineers, I tend to find myself leaning to look around and under stuff sometimes.

It's true, and it's problematic, but the plastic lining in an aluminium can is super thin, since it doesn't need to be structural. As far as resource use goes, it's still way better. It's best to look for improvements, and not to let the search for perfection block you from a marginal gain.

If you're going to re-use, use glass, where possible. If you're not, aluminium is still the better choice.

We should have higher deposits on cans and bottles. Here, it's been pegged at 5 cents since the 90s - it should be more like 25 cents now for cans, or a dollar for glass bottles.

I started with Telix but Telemate won me over. Better macros for tw2002.

I had a moment recently where I noticed that in Bluey, the kids were sticking their legs through the bottom of their plastic car (one of the Grannies eps) but in the next scene the car had turned over and clearly had a solid bottom panel.

Yep........ magic car apparently!

Ahmad earl grey. We buy the loose tea, about ten 500g boxes per year. Also use it for kombucha.

And then you have Terry Pratchett who gave us Mister Teatime.

Look into Sawyer water filters. Much easier to use than lifestraws, last longer. Pressure instead of suction.

I assume the UK would be obligated to adopt the Euro as a currency, and i have no doubt some people would absolutely rage stroke.

That could end up whiplashing as the administration passes between US factions, no?
