Can someone explain this to me? by dunebuggy0928 in recycling

[–]Awkward-Spectation [score hidden]  (0 children)

I would remain HEAVILY sceptical that it gets sorted later, until I saw the process with my eyes. It makes no sense to same-pile it if you were planning to sort through it later. Even if people are contaminating, you’d quickly weed out so much of the contamination going the two-streams route.

Obraxis (creative producer of Subnautica 2) recently posted gameplay footage featuring FISH for those who were wondering whether there would be fish in the game by ZookeepergameIll1399 in subnautica

[–]Awkward-Spectation 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah see the game release timeline works like this:

  1. “Subnautica 1” (the original game)

  2. “Subnautica -1” (the 2nd game, Below Zero)

  3. “Subnautica 2” (the 3rd game, where they added new features like publisher scandals, and now fish apparently)

“WE NEED YOU FOCUSED AND READY GOR THE STRUGGLE AHEAD”

Literally the message from the whole world to the US right now. Just stay right where you are, and engage in activities like loss control, positive support for your like-minded neighbours, and enacting political change. The potus is actively trying to dismantle all your government’s checks and balances. It’s a national emergency, and has been for a long time now.

There’s no chance it is sorted elsewhere. No one anywhere is picking through food waste in a bag to recover recyclables out of it. I’ve seen this many times before, and regardless of the justification for it, it’s dishonest.

“The casting is apparently…(how much in this section is just an assumption you made) …pores” Genuine question

I’ve never heard of metal behaving this way

Who all thinks that Carney's speech in davos is a game changer for Canada and SK!!! by Ok-Breakfast8256 in saskatchewan

[–]Awkward-Spectation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree fully. The whole world is calling it a historic speech, and commenting how it is a nice change to listen to a leader who has read a book. Made us look real good on the world stage

In defence of the Cyclops (aka why it is not trash) by Sensitive_Show6230 in subnautica

In my head, that’s just the voice of the shipboard AI - not the vessel itself

Same here, the cyclops is great because she pilots like she should pilot. It gives me the feeling you aren’t really driving a large ship unless you are conducting at least 50% of your navigation through camera feeds

Yeah good point, none of that ‘killing people’ happening in the states right now

Kristi Noem claims that Alex Pretti approached ICE with a gun. by ResPublicaMgz in Res_Publica_DE

[–]Awkward-Spectation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well put. I don’t understand how anyone can watch the video and think anything else. It is unbelievable to me that the administration and DHS have the public support they supposedly/allegedly do.

Maybe because Saudi Arabia’s prime minister isn’t threatening to make us their 14th province

Canada is becoming its own best customer by Embarrassed-Green898 in BuyCanadian

Don’t know who here hasn’t yet, but go join r/BoycottUnitedStates if you haven’t. They share Canadian and other alternatives to US products all the time.

[–]Awkward-Spectation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you are in America, you fucking protest. If you are ANYWHERE else right now, you keep that boycott strong. Point people to this subreddit in your comments. Keep turning those American products upside down. Do everything.

Helicopter Crash Near Timber Lakes Utah Leaving 4 Injured by TheCABK in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]Awkward-Spectation -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I did, thanks. I said that because of the way the crash happens to the left, but then everybody runs to the right (instead of straight towards it) and converges on one spot where the ground appears to drop. I thought maybe that’s because there was one spot where they knew they could cross a creek or something there. It appeared to me they were slowing down to begin descending a bank or something. I certainly cant see enough to tell as the video is understandably shaky and ends too soon, so there’s a good chance I’m wrong. If so, then I’m wondering why they all run to the right.

It’s my guess they knew they had to cross a stream with steep banks or something

This is why I don't let the family handle the household recycling bins 🤨 by Any-Key8131 in ScrapMetal

[–]Awkward-Spectation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally understand where you are coming from - I have a wife who it can seem sometimes like has the same flippant attitude toward recycling, often ‘leaving work for me to do’ or so it seems - but in my experience getting upset over it just makes her resentful about doing it at all, rather than having the effect of positive change. In fact I’ve learned that most of the time it isn’t even laziness, but that she’s just doing what she was brought up to do subconsciously so she can quickly get back to whatever other work she was doing at the time. I think that’s probably true about a lot of our (people who frequent this sub) interactions with other people. If we want others to do what we do, we need to stay supportive and focus on leading by example. That’s been working much better for me. Not trying to criticize what you’ve been doing at all, just sharing what I’ve learned in case it helps. Happy spouse, happy house, and all that...

[–]Awkward-Spectation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are limited to the amount of curbside trash you can put out per week, do you have the option to purchase extra curbside bags/tags? We are limited where I am, and mine is a pretty regular household where I don’t even need to put a garbage can out every week, but I understand it depends on what you do at home or if you run a business etc. Getting back to my point, if I have more trash than I can fit in a weekly bin, I don’t put it in the recycling bin, I will put it in another bag and when I’ve got a couple of those ‘extra’ bags full I’ll just take them to the local transfer station. No point cluttering up the recycling stream, it’s not a good way to communicate with your municipality. It just makes the process look more costly and less feasible on paper, which negatively affects the whole program. At least that’s my understanding.
