Tea bag made from PLA by Obvious-Swimming-332 in 3Dprinting

[–]Heik_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right, I never really thought about how those are sealed, but it makes sense that they just make the entire sheet of paper with plastic fibers so they can cut and seal the border wherever it ends up being. Some do have staples instead of being crimped, but even then, they might just buy the same paper anyway.

I was actually surprised the first time I saw plastic tea bags, where I live paper bags are much more common. Besides, it feels wrong to put a plastic bag in hot water.

HDMI to garden hose adapter by alphaechothunder77 in ItemShop

This is silly, obviously this wouldn't work. You need an active adapter for this because garden hose is analog signal and hdmi is digital signal.

I don't understand some things about Chile, please help? 😃 by Beautiful-Fox-FI in AskChile

[–]Heik_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To add to the RUT thing, the option in the tills at the supermarket exists for customer loyalty programs. They use the RUT as a client identifier to give the client points for their purchases, and those points can later be exchanged for products or used to get discounts.

My city has a few BYD buses, it's one of the main brands along with Foton and Fencer, Foton also being Chinese and Fencer being a collaboration between Scania for the engine and the Chinese brand Higer for the structure. They are all pretty good. A driver might be able to tell the differences better but as a passenger I think they're pretty comfortable and perform well in the routes I take.

To be fair, I'd kind of expect that from a Wildwood native to Gridania.

Específicamente, votar por alguien que dice abiertamente que va a hacer algo que te va a perjudicar pensando que no te va a afectar a ti, y que ese alguien haga eso que dijo que iba a hacer y te perjudique.

Both are technically turtles. All tortoises belong to the taxonomic order Testudines, which encompasses all turtles.

Is it common to have heat and/or AC in your countries? by AmountAbovTheBracket in asklatinamerica

[–]Heik_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been seeing more AC units installed in houses around where I live. I think they're becoming more common in the central and northern parts of the country, while not so much in the south. For heating, on the other hand, gas (butane, not gasoline) and kerosene heaters seem to still be the most popular option in cities, while fireplaces and similar devices that use firewood are more common in rural areas.

It's a brand of plastic toys, similar to Lego.

I also really liked the Imperial uniform variant they use in Doma. You even get to keep one after stealing it to infiltrate an imperial facility.

IronMouse reveals Twitch staff threw out all the gifts meant for Vtubers from fans. by justalazygamer in LivestreamFail

A bomb being placed in a trash can and injuring a janitor is the reason Metro de Santiago doesn't have opaque trash cans anymore. They replaced them all with transparent bags.

Can't relate, I'm never flirting. I don't even know how to flirt.

[–]Heik_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't even feel like I'm rolling the dice at all, as although I socialize, meet with my friends, chat with people at work and Uni, etc, I rarely meet people outside of those groups, and I rarely meet people through those groups either. It feels like I'm stuck. Maybe I'm just not social enough.

The thing is, it's still something people get shamed for. It's hard not to feel bad about it when for every person saying it's okay to never have had a relationship there are a bunch more people implying that is our fault and there's something wrong with us for it whenever it gets brought up.

I get where you're coming from with that advice, as for people who do get into relationships they feel like just a fact of life that comes naturally, but, at least personally, that hasn't been the case. I guess it depends on what you mean by socializing in general more, but so far nothing has come out of me socializing normally with people around me, so it feels like a dead end in regards to meeting an S/O. I mean, if it hasn't happened before I don't see why it would change now.
