    I have cut my lips twice on these fuckers. Also just this week while pouring milk, the cap somehow slipped right under the stream and spilled the milk everywhere.

    Who loses their bottlecap?

    Also this makes it harder for kids to drink from bottles, since they can’t put their whole mouth around.

    I hate these shit stains with a passion.

    I am 99% sure, thia was all just a PR stunt by some bottle company. If they really wanted to do something for the environment, they would go for glass bottles again, since they can be recycled forever.



  • Now what most people don’t know is that websites can insert arbitrary text when you copy stuff of them. A malicious site will abuse that.

    It works like that:

    You follow a tutorial online or search for a code snippet. You copy some code/said snippet and paste it into a terminal or the browser command line. This copied text is altered by the site to be a one line command to install malware or grab passwords or cookies. All of that is followed by a line break and maybe your real command to lower suspicion.

    Some of the terminal or browser shells interpret a line break in the copied text as enter which then executes the command.

    To prevent that, get a shell, that doesn’t just execute what you paste (fish shell) or a terminal program, that warns you about line breaks (Moba xterm).
    And please check text from unknown sites before pasting it into a program that may execute it right away. (Just paste it into a text editor or look at your clipboard manager like Win+V in windows)
