What has?

Dutchy here. Rotterdam specifically.

PET is recycled as in: every supermarket has an drop off point, giving you back 25cnt for every large bottle, 15cnt for small and cans.

Plastic in the general garbage is separated (not 100%, but still) and either separated (polystyrene is easy to detect and seperate for instance) or sold to companies that repurpose them (more and more of those white triangle things in the corners of roads are repurposed strengthened plastics now).

I'm sure plenty will find its way to either landfill (that we don't have much) or gets burnt. But it's not as bad as the US, which was my point in the first place.

Ah yes, a YouTube video.

Hope you ever find yourself in Western Europe, where we actually do recycle.

Not long. That's why we recycle. Part of that is these stupid hinges.

I don't like them, but we need them.

i closed lemmy because of you, F you.

Do not dare to speak on my behalf with that tone.

You describe a US problem. Keep that in mind or STFU.

Just throwing this in here because it reminded me of it.

The Netherlands? Urk.

Couldn't even afford a decent photo, had to use the el-cheapo version.

I feel attacked.....

You think apple doesn't track how often you blink? They just don't tell you they do, because they don't have to tell you.

Ignorance is bliss here.

Come to the rest of the world, no problems here .

Sinterklaas.

Merriam Webster says :

*any of various usually cold dishes: such as

a: raw greens (such as lettuce) often combined with other vegetables and toppings and served especially with dressing

b: small pieces of food (such as pasta, meat, fruit, or vegetables) usually mixed with a dressing (such as mayonnaise) or set in gelatin*

As such, even just cucumber would suffice.

Edit: in dutch, a "salade" has to accompanied by a dressing or vinaigrette, thus very much limiting what a salad is.

Open protocol wins.

Closed, narrowinded protocol lost.

English not a native language?

My friend, it's not even my continent.

I'm from Europa, where we use 24h clocks. While some know am and pm, I never use it, and often get them confused.

Thanks
