  • Still, you’re not getting it. The commenter is speaking from the perspective of the type of person who would do this. They are doing so to mock that type of person. If you give the commenter the benefit of the doubt, assuming that they are not on the side of the rightwing psychopaths they are explicitly criticizing, then it makes sense.





  • It looks like it given the symbols used. P for pressure, rho for density etc. u-arrow is definitely a vector field, so it could be fluid flow. Otherwise it could be equally anything described by a vector field, like electromagnetism or gravity but they usually have a lot more E and G involved I think. I used to solve these but then I got a certificate so now I don’t have to.




  • There definitely is an element of people just not liking it because it’s new, but there’s also an element of not getting any say in it whatsoever.
    Also, they really do get in the way. They make it harder to get a good seal between your mouth and the bottle at any angle, and at the top they hit your nose. They are slightly harder to use, especially if you’re using one hand for any reason, including if you only have one hand. Removing them without tools results in a sharp bit of plastic which pokes and irritates your skin.
    Finally, this is another patronising effort which makes consumers lives more difficult (by whatever amount) while not doing enough to combat plastic waste.







  • Exactly. There’s a definite pattern here. Cameron pandered to the cunts in his party in 2010-16, opening the door to populist cunts like Nigel, and Starmer is now pandering to the cunts in his party, opening the door to populist cunts like George. In both circumstances, the normal people (moderate Tories, tender leftists) are completely disenfranchised, and the party ends up irrevocably split. I know history repeats, but usually there’s at least a short period where we learn from it first…
    And we’re left, once again, with nobody to view for. So many people will hit the elect button, and chaos will ensue. The system needs a reset.
