@remaster I hate these stupid attached lids. Especially on milk bottles because they flop down while you’re pouring and the milk goes everywhere.
I’ve started just breaking them off.

@ahltorp @Elektrotier Oh! Hadn’t heard that.
@remaster @ahltorp @Elektrotier because now everyone hate those caps. Can you open close with one hand? Can you pour water in a glass with one hand? That sus cap fall under flow and everything gets water instead of glass

@DanielG
I never face this issue. Are you doing it wrong? you have to fold them until they click and stay in place.
Maybe try a different brand? -
@Elektrotier @remaster But in Sweden the number of bottle caps on beaches increased dramatically after bottle caps started to be attached.
This diagram is the number of plastic caps per 100m beach.
@ahltorp OMG didn't know that. The EU should takle the problem at the source: no single use plastic bottles and cups.
-
@magezwitscher @remaster On the long life cartons this works, but not on the fresh milk plastic bottles.
It could be a brand issue but in general I don’t think lids needed to be legislated.

@ahltorp @bill88t @Elektrotier @remaster
The vast majority of handy-sized plastic drinks bottles here in UK do seem to have attached lids. I didn't understand it when it first came out, so perhaps some ppl still don't embrace the idea. Still, IMO it's greenwashing the fact of single use disposable plastics. I don't think my municipality are too clear about exactly what happens to our carefully pre-sorted recyclables, caps attached or not.@MattMoose @ahltorp @bill88t @Elektrotier @remaster The UK has ancient, crumbling drainage infrastructure already jammed with wet wipes. One would think you all overjoyed about the attached bottle caps making it all the way to the landfill.

@remaster nice for lefties, but a lot of Europeans hate this kind of caps.

@remaster looks like bottled beverages are going to get really expensive in the future. Why would you add extra subconscious consumerism signalling to bank notes?

@remaster
The number of times I accidentally spilt water over myself while drinking increased a lot thanks to this bs...
And some of the water bottles at work have an especially shitty cap that you cannot properly close again w/o ripping the cap off first.
And the scratches to lips and nose...
Thanks to all the idiots that threw their waste into the environment.
Well... At least this didn't break our Reverse Vending Machine software. Was seeing me adapting our bottle detection to this abomination for weeks on end already when those came out...

@remaster
If made properly (folding back to a stable position) and not dangling around stupidly, I really like attached bottle caps. No more problems when opening a water bottle in a car and the cap falls into the void...Don't know what exact problems other people have

@remaster I love it, it is handy. Never removed the cap.

@mawhrin @keesjanb @remaster This is not about my use of the cap, it's a design problem.
The can industry found a solution without major flaws, and the plastic bottle industry didn't. Sending a 100 page manual with each bottle detailing nifty tricks isn't design, and neither is sharing the tricks with us on Mastodon.

Most Europeans won’t get the punchline. As they are unable to close a plastic bottle without that help.

The 500€ should feature "Roam like at home".@magezwitscher @remaster Nah, Schengen should be on the €500 - RLAH works, but Schengen, like the €500 note, is disappearing…
