But I don't want to donate my used glasses for building materials.

*shits into your mouth*

Maybe in Cuba.
>>
>>21644014
Yes, reduce the structural integrity of the glass by giving it fucking corners so it's much easier to be damaged during shipping. Do you know what's a better idea? Telling the local brown people not to pollute their beaches with glass bottles.

>Telling brown people to do anything wise
An exercise in futility.

>>21644246
Almost as futile as trying to help them.

I feel like you could club a guy pretty good with one of those beer cubes. Wouldn't the cube shaped bottle put out more force than a cylinder shaped bottle if you hit someone on the head? Any physicists want to chime in?

I think the real reason is so they can be stacked more easily for shipping, which considering how they're also more fragile is going to be a nightmare for whatever poor delivery guy has to restock these.
>>
>>21644264
The entire point of the bottles is to be reused in 3rd world countries as bricks for building houses.

this is one of those pics you used to see in like "products of the future" posts on ebaumsworld or whatever, just like that green gel fridge.

Rectangular bottles would have almost the same benefits for small scale shipping and it would be a far superior option for the consumer compared to a cube shaped bottle, which would be annoying to drink out of and prone to slipping due to the awkward grip combined with condensation. There's also no reason to use these for commercial transportation over kegs.

This idea only makes sense in the dark, twisted, and retarded mind of an Indian, or an autistic German who wants to stack everything in his home like he lives in a warehouse.

It was designed by a French guy in 2012 and it has never actually been used

I'm going to drop this when I'm drunk and I'm going to injure myself with broken glass

>>21644450
The French are well known sadists with psychopathy deeply ingrained within their psyche and culture. So it doesn't surprise me for a single second that a French person would propose this nonsensical idea in the hopes that a company will adopt it for the sole reason that they can torment the general public for his own sick pleasure.

heh

>>21644258
It's a lot easier to swing a longneck bottle and long things can be swung with more force/speed. I don't think they would be easier to throw either without a neck to grab onto and get a spin on it. Seems like an inferior weapon to me.

>>21644014
Imagine trying to drink out of this sippy cup bullshit and not look retarded

They were designed to be refilled with concrete and used to build with in third world countries (i.e. USA).
>>
>>21645439
That must be why you're speaking our language, on our websites, using our inventions.

Because we're the ones that are third world. Lmao yeah keep telling yourself that, loser. You don't even have the balls to name your own shithole country because you KNOW it would be so, so, so incredibly easy to just shit all over it.

They wouldn't be third worlders if they didnt drink so much. Shame.

seems hard to pick up

Looks cool, maybe I'll buy one and turn the bottle into a lamp.

wtf lmao

>>21644014
You could not actually use it as a full cube. The opening is lower so you could only fill it up to ~60% or get the contents all over you as soon as you open it.
The amount shown in the pic would get beer all over you.

It WAS your language until we waylaid it in an alley, cracked it over the skull, and rifled through its pockets looking for loose vocabulary, just like we did to just about every other language.

Sheesh, imagine listening to diatribe on language from a person who literally gets arrested for using it.

That must be an absolute pain to manufacture. Kudos for the industrial designer for not backing down and production engineers for not blowing their brains out
>>
>>21647535

Why? You just need the corresponding molds.
Bottles are not hand-blown by glass blowers you know but by machine extruding into molds. Change the molds and valve a bit to correspond the different position of the neck and you could produce them just fine.
>>
>>21647554
My experience is in plastic parts so i may be talking out of my ass here
Glass bottles are actually still made by blowing, just not by people, but an extruder machine. You're right there. A glob is first blowed into a starter mould, and then blowed into the final mould
The issue is, the geometry of this bottle sucks. The opening of the bottle is not the tallest part of it. As far as i know, it makes it a lot more difficult because you wouldn't get a perfect part unless the glob is within a very narrow margin (too light, the bottom is thin, too heavy and the top wouldn't look uniform). Plus glass manufacturers can't do heated moulds, vents, sprue etc. A lot more constraints
If this was plastic we would need a heated mould, and a few extra vent holes but it's still doable, not too hard. But not before we would convince the designer to drop the idea though
>>
>>21647597
>The issue is, the geometry of this bottle sucks

Oh no arguing here. There is usually a reason why shapes become the standard over generations. The cylinder is simple, easy to produce, excellent to hold and really stable.
It's also very well stackable, just not upright. But lay it down and you can stack bottles very well.
That one is just a gimmick. Looks cool tho.

When you ship 10 cases of product and only 8 make it to the destination, it causes the price of the product to go up.
>>
>>21644264
Trvke you got the chuds hootin' and hollerin' with this one
>>
>>21645439
You are mistaken. These were designed to minimise shipping costs and to stop the noise of bottles clanking together in a 6 pack. They were never made beyond prototypes. Heineken did make a building block bottle briefly in the 60s. Pee is stored in the balls and beer is stored in the cube.
>>
>>21647680
I mean an object cannot refuse anything so that's irrelevant.
And that fridge could get some mechanism to push things back out.
>>
People know shockingly little about construction if the "glass bottles as bricks" idea sounds appealing.
>>
>>21648647
Well what do you expect we outsourced all manufacturing to china and other Asian countries

they already make houses with glass bottles and concrete, have been for a while.
