Outlook got updated on my iPhone last night and now they want me to agree to having my data shared with 807 partners.

Important note: I don’t use outlook as my primary email provider. I use Proton with a custom domain but I keep outlook for some old emails.

I think the intend here is pretty obvious? I also think the reaction over it is kinda overblown.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I totally understand the intention. It just doesn't work irl. Especially with youghurt and milk cartons. I assume they will do the same to detergents too?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I like it especially on the milk cartons. They really don't matter if you pour it into something to drink like my coffee.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

I think milk is one of the few that do work. Youghurt and sodas are a lot more inconvenient and in the long run i can't see how much more they help compared to banning plastic bottles. I don't see that many loose caps in the wild

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I buy a pack of juice each week that has the same cap and it's absolutely no problem at all. I honestly don't know how it "doesn't work" for you.

Although exaggerated, this guy sums it up pretty well

Also i live in a country with a quite well functioning recycling system so loose caps or bottles or even cans is not really an issue.

So i guess the frustration is mostly at making a solution to a problem that was not there. And at best applying a solution across the whole eu to a problem that maybe is not there in all countries

Can't relate at all to that. The cap stays pretty much in a diagonal position when open. But if you're so paranoid you could also turn it sideways, or even down and have it push against the outside of your glass. Putting the cap back on is also absolutely not an issue at all. You just do the regular left turn first until it aligns with the thread and plops into place, same thing you'd do normally, because it's obviously long enough for that. Honestly, this whole video just seems like caveman / complete moron issues if I'm gonna be honest, like some apes trying to figure out simple tools. But I guess people nowadays have to cry about anything changing all the time, even when they're complete non issues.
