We used to, here in Finland, but I think now they crush them and reform them into new bottles. The things cost 20c/piece, so everyone returns them.

I kind of want to know what it does... Is it like a rumble pack for your ass? And is it intended to improve the gaming experience or is the game supposed to improve sex?

The cost of the scroll wheel cannot possibly be more than 10€ and the pcb cannot be more than 1€ battery is about 4e and display can be 7-8, chip is 2-3e and passives, connectors etc brlow 5. The manufacturing costs of the thing are likely below 40€, even in small volumes. Assy costs are probably about 20% of the total.

Part of the high cost may be investments in moulds for the casing and r&d cost.

Unfortunately my love for cats is rivalled only by my allergy to them.

And if I have no cats, can it also be rum, because I'm sad about not having cats?

I think they mean competent in the legal self determination sort of way: not needing a guardian.

I have been quite happy with Nokias (HMD Global). Only downside is poor spare part availability.

Loric is what Mark Zuckerberg emanates.

Congratulations, you have been awarded the "Worst Advice of the Month" award. Shame on you.

I loke Orangina, which is like sprite and orange juice with some pulp.

Sadly, it's not sold where I live.

Or perhaps it's a good thing, I'd probably gain a lot of weight if they did.

It also goes away quickly when not addicted.

Source: tried nicotine, was disappointed.

First time I got into one, this was my exact reaction: wtf this thing is like a 1980s corolla turned onto an aircraft. I was sure I'd get killed in that rickety pos.

Oh, that's actually really cold

    
What does not work

capitalism (IRL; I wouldn't want to try implementing it here)


  

I actually lol'd

And I gotta ask, what insanity drives someone to implement a minecraft server in bash...?

Make it harder to steal is the most common reason.

Crimean Combat Seagulls had me actually chortling.

I have no idea, never tried, but I can imagine it's easier when your fingers don't need to be so close...

In case you are serious, it's for lighting pipes.

I tried it for the first time a few weeks ago, had used RHEL and Ubuntu before, my only complaint is that the task bar editor is kind of clunky.

Aside from that, solid OS (and there is no real need to edit the task bar, unless you are my kind of weirdo).

A 1 minute google search would have revealed that the main ICBM used by the PLA uses a liquid fuel rocket. It is being replaced with the DF-41, but it is very likely DF-5 is the missile being referenced by the article.

The DF-5s are used in two main operational modes: erecting a mobile launch platform commonly on rails (missiles stored inside mountain tunnels) or stored vertically and ready to launch in silos.

China has maintained a sort of minimalistic nuclear deterrent for years - I think very responsibly - where a handful of quick to launch and well hidden nuclear weapons ensure other powers don't get too uppity. The pre-fueled missiles in silos therefore represent an essential retaliatory strike component for China's nuclear deterrent.

Although embarrassing, this sort of corruption can cause catastrophic consequences. I would be happy that rotten apples like this are rooted out.
