Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Thick borosilicate-glass ( no plastic-chemicals getting into my water, thermal-shock-proof, thick-enough to not be too fragile ),
wide-mouth for easy-cleaning,
fits on bike bottle-holder ( plastic one, not metal, to protect the bottle ),
much taller than the short bike-bottles,
cover to keep grime off the drinking-from lid,
silicone or something seal(s),
able to drink quickly from it at stop-lights.
Probably acrylic for the lid-material, since it seems to be reasonably-robust & not too putting-weird-chemicals into my water.
( all this is because bike-bottles made of low-density poly-ethylene are absolutely vile with the chemicals they put into water, & poly-carbonate also has some chemical-seepage issues )
Actually, I'd want a package-deal: larger-diameter bottle-holder & bottle-to-fit: I want water, not svelte-traditional-bottle-diameter..
So, I was partly solving-the-wrong-problem at the beginning..
That's how learning happens, though: ad-hoc..

You don't want to crash your bike someday and land on sharp broken shards/edges. Ask me how I know...
