you dont mail them back all at once, you collect them and send them back in the envelopes they provide.

they are very, very light.

mail trucks go from my community mailbox to the city centre, then to the other hub whether or not my few ounces of brush heads are in there.

Nothing is perfect. Take biodegradable trash bags for example. There's a higher carbon cost to make those than thin petro-chemical regular bags. You need to weigh up landfill waste vs energy costs with everything, but with more energy. Same with mining for lithium for EV batteries.

Nothing is perfect. This, I believe, is a better choice.

yeah.. well maybe keep it in mind for when it craps out on you. or you could consider ditching it (while recycling the battery properly) just to stop buying new heads that'll be around for millennia after we're both dead

thats's an.. interesting sun that rises and sets on the same horizon

no way, cool

SURI. They're made to be able to be repaired so you won't have to replace it, and the heads are made with vegetable based plastics that you mail to them to actually get recycled.

The battery lasts for weeks and weeks, it has a UV sterilizing travel case and is the best electric toothbrush I've owned.

From their website:

Every toothbrush you’ve ever owned still exists.

Each year 4 billion toothbrushes are thrown away; enough to circle the earth 12 times.

Which is why we need to take toothbrush design back to first principles. If we can do our best to make each component reusable or recyclable, we can do more with less.

Ive been around a fair bit and Switzerland was the country I liked least of all the countries I've ever spent time in. Fucking shit hole (unless you value shopping for luxury brands. pretty amazing public transport, also)

yeah, we should cut down all the trees so people (like me) don't have allergy symptoms /s

the study didnt exclude people with allergies.

if you use sweethome and only look at the top view its as good as a 2d application.

I feel like youre just being fussy here man

right OK. the way you said this reminds me of my favorite poster on bluesky. Id say you might like this guy https://bsky.app/profile/cashlin.bsky.social

The latter. Your prefrontal cortex essentially stops thinking in rational ways, and more primitive parts of your brain are running the show. "Fight Mode". Dude's gonna have a hell of a reality hangover when bloodflow and electrical activity return to his front brain and he does a quick audit of what he just did.

I cant believe how slammed he got to be fair

I"m going to need you to elaborate on whack
