Diplomatic punishment usually manifests as isolating a country (e.g. sanctions). The DPRK is so incredibly isolated that it is free on the vast majority of issues to just say what it wants to say without a substantial possibility of reprisal. Obviously it is limited in what it can say about the PRC and even RoK, but what the fuck can Israel do to them? Send them some Soda Streams and then take them back? (Actually not even that, given sanctions)

Oh shit, SodaStream is Israeli.

I knew I made the right choice with DrinkMate lmao

fffffffffffffffffffff i forgot about that.

now i gotta toss this thing in the trash... sorry planet

edit: it seems DrinkMate's cylinders are compatible with soda stream, so i'll just use theirs instead.. no sense throwing this hunk of plastic into an ocean just to spite isn'trael

You already bought it yeah. Just switch gas providers and don't buy their flavors.

Also look into refilling it locally much cheaper anyway. Or if not, DrinkMate refills SodaStream canisters too

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 10 months ago

yeah i usually went to Ace Hardware to get the refill bottles but it would be nice to just get an adapter thing with a big canister instead

[-] Helmic@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

yeah you can get a little doodad to connect a big refillable canister that you can get refilled locally. you've been soending way too much if you buy any comoany's proprietary consumable accesories.

recently bought a petsafe scoopfree litter box on clearance which has reallu expensice refills because the bottom of the trau is cardboard. i bought a third party stainless steel tray. entirely undermined that business model.
