“JXPDumpsters License.txt” to your PC's Fallout 3 Data directory to
retain them for future reference.

4. Launch Fallout 3. When the Launcher window appears, select “Data Files”.
The Fallout 3 Data Files window will appear containing a list of files.
Click/tap the checkbox next to “JXPDumpsters.esp” and/or
“JXPDumpstersPointLookoutCP.esp” to enable it/them, then click/tap the
“OK” button. The mod is now installed.

3. GAME CHANGES

Changes the name of all Trash Bins to Dumpsters.

So next time you go dumpster diving for fun (and profit), you don't have to
say you're going trash bin diving for fun (and profit) and have everyone
awkwardly stare at you then prod you with sharp objects.

4. RATIONALE

I'm a massive pedant.

Dumpster was a trademark of Dempster Brothers, but the name was used for
the first commercially successful garbage trucks in the US and it stuck,
making it a generic trademark.

Bethesda even called it a dumpster in the code, but probably didn't want to
risk getting in legal trouble. However, the trademarks of the name have
long expired.

Anyway, I'm told it's what Americans call wheelie bins and skips.

5. UNINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Delete the file(s) “JXPDumpsters.esp”, and
“JXPDumpstersPointLookoutCP.esp” if you have it. The mod is now
uninstalled.

6. CHANGELOG

0.1.0
Initial commit.
Renamed Trash Bins to Dumpsters.

7. CREDITS

Thanks to the nice Americans on my socials that confirmed to me the photo
of the wheelie bin I posted was called a dumpster.
