I find this anti-China thing a bit frustrating to be honest. Almost everything is made in China, even some really good stuff. It's not where it's made that dictates the quality. There is pure crap made in the UK and US too and plenty of the world's biggest brands are manufactured in China. It's all about quality control, not nationality.

‘Twere these the baskets that launched a thousand loads and washed the endless laundry of Ilium?

Yup. Stanley and Black and Decker both sold out years ago. Brand loyalty is essentially meaningless these days.

You can only call it a thermos if it's Thermos. Thermos is a brand name ;-)

I was hesitant on the phrasing but I ultimately felt that it’s not a bad way to say it.
Plus deep down I’m a bit of a karma… Well, I like my posts to have meaningless internet points, and I know what Reddit likes.

I once ran over a camera bag with $22,000 worth of gear in it. What do I win?

I've been using this one, from OXO, for years: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000079XW2?th=1
It stays clean, no sharp edges on your can. It'll take you a couple of minutes to get the hang of it, but after that you'll find it fast, easy and definitely buy-it-for-life. It'll easily outlast me.

Reply to Looking for BIFL packing cubes? by BlueMonroe
i love my Lewis N. Clark packing cubes. Have had them for many years, taken them on many trips (for ~6 years I traveled with them weekly for work), and I'm still using them. https://lewisnclark.com/packing/

I lost an ipod in the snow one year, found it during a thaw, and the damn thing worked for years afterwards until the screen broke when it fell from my pocket as I went to take a shit lol

I got a hold of an identical Stanley vintage thermos (along with the laundry baskets I posted), but I was very disappointed with its heat holding efficiency. I have a Microsoft Teams thermos that I found at work that keeps my coffee hot all day, and it’s actually slightly warm two days later when I forget it.
The Teams thermos isn’t Yeti or anything, it’s just some knock off I think. It’s much smaller, but it’s about half the liquid volume but only a quarter of the thermos size.

My stanley food jar will keep soup hot for 5-6 hours, past that it stays warm in my stomach. Though I'm sure it could go longer. The trick is to fill it with boiling water to warm it before putting food in.

Reply to Work Backpack - Osprey Nebula or Radial? by akeenamk
I think the Radial was designed for people that ride bikes to work etc. The Nebula is well reviewed on REI. I have had Osprey packs for years they have been really good.

Check out Everki. Excellent quality backpacks. Mine is going on 10 years and looks brand new.
