Well the inventor of the things says that he regrets creating them because they can't be recycled, and for some reason I believe he knows what he's talking about. As for compostable, you have to shred the things and give them lots of air and time for it to happen so, yeah, right.

Meh, petroleum gas is on the way out, if they really wanted to disrupt they would offer electric car charging, CNG, LNG, LPG, Biodiesel, and Ethanol blends. I'm in the Bay Area and all my friends brag about their alternative fuel vehicles, so surely they will completely replace dirty fossil fuels in a few years.

I always thought it at least meant the material would return to soil in a few years. biodegradable is a legit thing but it's not like garbage dumps are an open field with plenty of access to the elements. they're more like giant plastic lined holes in the earth 200 feet deep the garbage gets dumped into. nothing can really degrade once it's buried in fifty feet of garbage, even bacteria can't live down there. if you go to old landfills and you dig deep enough you can dig up perfectly legible and well preserved newspapers from a hundred years ago

Eh, biodegradable at least means it won't end up as a part of a high seas garbage island or forever-litter on the side of a road/river.

Is there a bicycle tag app yet? Where you register to get chased, and a courier gets paid if they tag you. Could sell it to fitness enthusiasts and as a exercise experience.

jaete posted:Also, it's an awful idea yeah, they should outsource the actual delivery too and just ship gas boxes that customers can apply to their cars themselves I bet they could get bulk shipping rates too maybe a Netflix-like model where once you’ve put the gas in the vehicle you just slap another label on the empty container and send it back to be refilled and reused

There's an ambulance ride app that reminds me of that, because they're missing like 2 vowels in their name.
