3·8 months agoI can’t believe you’ve done this.
12·8 months agoThis, to me, is one of the biggest fallacies of tech companies claiming they care about sustainability goals. No matter the application, most of our hardware is made with materials that come from central Africa. Those mines and facilities are largely controlled by China. Whatever you think of China politically, you have to recognize that many of the sustainability disclosures that, say, Apple is making are premised on these mines self-reporting compliance with certain standards. In practice, miners are using outdated, poorly maintained equipment. Commonly, they’re using shovels and even their hands.
You can write all the cutesy reports you want with stock photos of green leaves, hands holding soil, and smiling “farmers.” Unless and until you’re directly funding better means of extracting raw materials like cobalt from the ground, companies’ claims about their commitment to ESG should be completely dismissed as nonsense.

Wait, now do Goose and Danny D.

Simply grab two toes and gradually spread them until the skin begins to tear. Repeat for each pair of toes.
Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov is an oppressive dictator who was responsible for some of the worst human rights abuses of any former Soviet State (which is a pretty damn high bar).
He is also an absolute cartoon character.
Well, this looks like a goddamn nightmare.
What kind of surfaces do you have? For example, I’ve found CLR is good for grout and tiles, while a basic bleach-based spray is good for porcelain and fiberglass. You can also mix in an ammonia-based cleaner if you want to recreate the Third Battle of Ypres in your bathroom.
