For example, I’m incredibly confused about how you’re supposedly to measure liquid laundry detergent with the cap. At least the kind that I have sits on it’s side, so if you measure it with the cap it just leaks everywhere and makes a mess.
Or at my parents house they have a bag of captain crunch berries that has a new design, where instead of zipping along the top of the bag like normal, it has a zipper in the front slightly beneath the top. That way when you poor it you can’t see what you’re doing cuz the bag is in the way. Like what the heck who’s idea was that?
I agree with you, but I’m not sure how great it would actually be.
I don’t know much about it and I suspect others will be along to correct me in a moment, but wasn’t this a feature of soviet era communism?
As in, capitalists all compete in a free market to produce the best chair for the lowest price. Communism is more efficient because we just direct a factory to make 2 types of chair, standard and deluxe.
Capitalists compete to make the most money by convincing customers to pay as much as possible for a product that’s as cheap as possible to make. The competition argument works in areas that are white-hot with innovation but can anyone honestly say the office chair of 2025 shows thirty years of innovation over the ones from 1995?
Office chairs, no, but massage chairs have.
I was going to bring up the Herman miller Arron, but that released in 1994!
I’m not going to engage in a silly argument about the merits of communism as opposed to capitalism.
Then why bring it up and say someone will correct you if you’re wrong?
Old mate didn’t provide any fascinating insights into the manufacturing practices of soviet era communism, they just trotted out some meme-level anti-capitalist vibe-based hyperbole.
