   @thatguyoverthere @Griffith @GabeLakmann @BowsacNoodle @Turkleton I don't know why Corning has chosen to license out "PYREX" and "pyrex" separately, but somehow they did and they get away with it.
   
   Original Pyrex was borosilicate.
   
   In the 1980s when this nonsense started we end up with:
   
   PYREX, if you can still find it, is borosilicate glass
   
   pyrex, which you'll see in most stores in USA is now soda-lime glass (shatters from thermal expansion)
   
   tbh this should be illegal. Highly misleading.
