It works by applied statistics.
When you littered before - with the old cap - you’d have two pieces of plastic, now they are connected and it’s only one piece.
I’m only mildy annoyed by the new lids and got used to them, but it’s the bottle cap regulation is one of those that’s purely better for statistics.
It reduces littering by bottles to around half, just because we count the pieces differently now.
Maybe we should better just start taxing by the amount of plastic used in food packaging, as a lot of the packages get bigger and bigger just to display the contents more visibility.

- Comment on What's the best way to respond to someone who says "transracial is just as valid as transgender"? 2 weeks ago:
“Race” was invented by racists. There was a lot of fake science here in Germany in the 30s to “prove” that not only “human races” exist, but even so that they have different worth.
So this is what I always still hear when someone is using the word - and commonly they are racists.
I do understand where you’re coming from, and I totally agree that there are a fucking lot of supremacist people and yes - if I had been a teenager in the 30s, people would have seen I’m blonde, blue-eyed and tall. So I would have that privilege and still it is a privilege in the modern world.
Prejudices about skin color exist, I absolutely agree. Racists exist, I agree. Just “race” - every time I hear that, it’s like something out of the Nazi textbooks my grandfather had to use at school.
- Comment on Why do some people hate drinking water? 2 weeks ago:
I can stand carbonated water and hat plain water. When I was a kid, my family wouldn’t drink water but other beverages.
My kids (17 and 20 now) grew up with drinking water at home. Water was the thing to drink if you are thirsty, everything else was allowed but “something special” like a sweet. Going to a restaurant also was special, they could choose what they like.
While I still struggle with water - I manage, but I still drink sugar free soda as well, my adult kids can’t understand how I like that sweet stuff all the time.
So I firmly believe your preference is what you grew up with. You can change it, but it takes effort.

Fun fact, some. LED candles just use such a cheap chip connected to a LED instead of a speaker, so they’ll flicker… they’ll flicker the song all along.

As a man I’d have never believed how common such behavior is. I’d have thought that’s really outlandish.
Now I’ve gone through the (probably stereotypical) process of a guy having a daughter, she’s an adult now.
What she told me - no, all this stuff isn’t unusual at all. The first time she was afraid (and called me as she already had a phone of her own) she was not even 10 years old, riding her bike from my place to the ex-wife’s place, teenage boys catcalling her.
There’s a lot of us men around who find it hard to believe, because it doesn’t happen to US.

See, for me - I crashed in that time, burnout, divorce, financial problems.
I’m rebuilding my life now step by step, and I’m rebuilding it in a way I don’t get into overload too much anymore.
I learned to offset stressful times by time off, for example, and 4 out of 5 weekends I relax. (And, yes I do allow myself to cheat, but I’m aware I go into “credit” energy-wise. So in total I take care m energy account stays positive and my life is so much better for it)

- Comment on How do I PS5? 5 months ago:
One tip when you have kids: If all the accounts are set up correctly as family accounts you can control playtime right in the settings. The PS will then log out the kids after (say) one hour of play automatically.
Using the PSN website you can grant an extension day by day. When my son had done his homework before playing I would regularly grant another hour. “Can I play more? - Have you done your homework? - Yes - No problem”
In the long run that conditioned him to do his stuff before playing. (And I did trust him, when he said he was finished with his work)
