@fesshole ah, apparently Gü is a brand of desserts. They have a page full of reuse/repurpose suggestions: https://gudesserts.com/pages/reuse

Ramekin Reuse

We whisk, whip, spoon, fold and pour, to bring you desserts layered with ooooh-iness. This is first degree diet murder. Worth every. single. calorie.

@fesshole I would've made the same mistake, and had to look it up:

«Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a once-weekly non-insulin injection for adults to help lower A1C along with diet and exercise.»

Not to be confused with #Manjaro, the Arch-based GNU/Linux distro.

@LuluHelle honestly, it depends on the tea. There are some loose leaf teas that can be boiled, and it's actually a quite old-fashioned way of making tea: https://pathofcha.com/blogs/all-about-tea/boiling-tea-which-tea-is-good-for-boiling

@EI3JDB the missing link for me was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garibaldi_biscuit — I know them better as fruit biscuits, or the most popular brand name in the Netherlands growing up: "Sultanas" (which is confusing in itself since that's probably just the variety if raisins in them).

@finitebaffle as further visual aids, here are the detergent compartments for my current and old laundry machine, and the programme display of my current laundry machine. See image descriptions for details.

But these are just 2 of an endless variation of designs I guess, though I think most laundry machines have similar markings.

One thing to note btw is that you shouldn't fill the fabric softener above the max level, because you'll trigger the Pythagorean siphon mechanism that would drain the entire compartment. Usually this happens when the machine adds water to it during the appropriate cycle (which I assume is the Rinse cycle? not sure actually). It's an interesting physics principle: https://youtu.be/Cg8KQfaT9xY
