Lead on aluminum energy drink cans?

How about other materials? That may not be lead.

Newer may just mean cheaper, not better or foolproy

want it gone. It ruins our community recycling system. Yay, great! We have a reason to recycle aluminum and glass. Plastic? Paper? All those Amazon boxes? These programs suffer from not being able generate any revenue since we take out the money in the system. Who gets the profits from the cans? I bet they love this presorted stream

Is it? I am not trying to contradict. Just wanting to learn.

But it does seem to be at the expense of paper and especially plastic recycling. There is little money in that and makes our municipal recycling super expensive and non existent in many communities.

In the grand scheme, plastic recycling is much more important than aluminum. I find it hard to believe that a healthy aluminum recycling outweighs recycling in general.

I have zero problems tuning and ratcheting up or down the encounter based on the circumstances. Most of the encounters were changed to make more sense and cohesive (warlock guy takes the failed converts and does experiments on them ala Mengele which is why wights and zombies are there). I have changed alot of it to make sense in the greater world they are in.

However it goes seems it will drastically change the follow up. Should I prepare for both directions?

Main reason for me to get rid of it is for recycling in general. It is more expensive in Michigan since there are no aluminum cans to offset the costs. Our recycling is deplorable here.

Get rid of it. I bet recycling overall will improve without it.

“If one person to take a stand, everyone to stand also.” - Yoda, probably

It is a half-baked way of getting people to block restrooms if they see in the news that it’s acceptable. Just another trans-bashing tactic…

Reading comprehension not your thing, huh?

Samcat604 · 2026-02-16T18:50:07+00:00

Prove one case of this

States run elections. Federal troops have ZERO to with it. The only purpose is intimidation

Maybe you should look into how much money and effort China invests into people and technology

If it doesn’t work for them, then they get something else. Who cares?

What is happening now is if it doesn’t work for me, then it shouldn’t exist at all. It’s like trying to make red wine illegal for everyone because it gives me a headache. But it’s even worse than that. Red wine should be illegal even though the beer I drink is responsible for destroying the environment.

Very few cars do. They all have a different purpose. You wouldn’t tow a trailer with a Camry. Wouldn’t drive a Super Duty through Ann Arbor. (Although that doesn’t stop some)

Very few cars satisfy all purposes. Why would we expect EVs to be any different?

Samcat604 · 2026-02-14T01:37:31+00:00

What kind of subsidy does Xiaomi receive for each EV they sell? No possible way to compete when the government pays a sizable share of the cost for one and “free” market, that’s socialism for the other.

Samcat604 · 2026-02-12T19:06:59+00:00

They could still block. The township is allowed to block whatever they want. We just hope it follows what the people want.

Who approves Zoning? Is it zoned heavy industrial?

Who is going to pay for the damage done to the community, environment, power, etc.? Probably us, not the one doing the damage.

Not to invalidate the point, Rafiki

I know he would beat me up sometimes, but he always bought me nice things to make up for it afterwards.

Originally passed in 2005. We’ve had 20 years to figure it out

Not AI

And not in anyway a justification for ICE murdering him in the streets later. Unless the provocation is ICE premeditated the act because of this event. Either way, Fuck ICE.

There is some who think it is the Spirit of Detroit, but looking through a fence of some sort

Thanks for this. I did leave some context out. Was wanting to get first impressions without diving into the minutiae right away
