Comment on The Purge
thelasttoot@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoStrainers and sieves are filters. A filter is a filter. A reverse filter is still a filter. Direction doesn’t make a difference because direction is subjective.

Direction matters in what you keep. A filter you keep the water. A strainer/sieve you keep the contents.

Well, unless you used the strainer/sieve to get and keep fine cake flour (the water in your analogy) from coarse flour (the contents).
Or like in the way they use sieves to sort gravel. They keep all of it.
My point is, direction is relative.

Oh using multiple accounts then?
The one here is water and contents. Like water filter, you keep the water. Or pasta strainer, you keep the pasta. Hell even the comic says reverse filter. You’re trying to ignore common day parlance. Ciao.

Nope, multiple people disagree with you.
You’re also supposed to keep some of the water to thicken the sauce typically
And you’re ignoring the gravel sieve example where everything is kept, because it’s inconvenient for your argument.
