minus-squareulterno@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months ago they shave one off every time it’s recycled I suppose in this case, you would call it “reused”? They are probably cleaned with boiling water and some chemicals before being refilled. By “recycling”, I would normally think of melting and reforming.
