Fairphone looks really cool, but I feel like too big for my weak little hands

I’d probably just refurb an old old Android phone. Would love to buy hardware that is more ethically sourced though

I’m legitimately curious about their takes on this…

I mean I hadn’t seen this until now, so thank you

Yes I meant to comment further, but my social media timer-blocker thing was about to go off. I’m just as upset at this practice of including, just, the most pernicious clauses imaginable in a contract as “boilerplate” where actually enforcing it would make you front page news, but we’re supposed to trust that it’s just for their protection.

Reprehensible. Shows how this company really doesn’t care for the people who actually bring these stories to life.

Well I know what movie I’m rewatching this week

Dammit now I’m pulsing manually

Wait until these people hear about Christians

Holy fuck there is not enough therapy in the world to ever get over that. That’s so incredibly fucked.

I believe you’re confusing recycling with what your local recycling program will accept. It’s convenient if they accept all plastic “recycling numbers” but many of those numbers are aspirational, with no known way of actually recycling that type of plastic. Manufacturers knew this, but promised that the technology to do so would be forthcoming. It has not been forthcoming, and current and future generations will suffer for it.

But even when plastic is recyclable, it’s still shit, and we should be trying to minimise its use in everyday consumer products.

It’s funny because I always heard that the rich preferred perfumes over bathing, and looked down on peasants for their bathing, especially public baths.

No source. It’s just what I heard. Even if it’s true, who knows what era and people it applied to.

What happened with Taylor Swift and airplanes? Is this a super bowl thing?

Lol I meant unlicensed copies though

Parallel means poopie

Me too, smeg

Readable sure, but legally purchasable? Big difference under our system

“We’ve replaced some pieces of that political machine—specifically, we have parallel media now with Elon’s Twitter, or X,” crowed Tan during a presentation at the 2023 Network State Conference. “Getting a parallel media was a key piece, and it wasn’t through voting. It was done by building.… […]

Got it so parallel means privatised. He’s a privatisation hawk.

What a tool. A cat would not even sit on his lap.

CEOs like this are aiming to indirectly rule/control others with their money

It breaks their little heads that they can have all this money and power, and yet still a random poor person has the legal right to say “no” to them.

They don’t understand why the state doesn’t work 100% just for them.

Indeed
