Feels a bit like that one time a meat eater accused me of drinking soy milk, because apparently that’s causing deforestation. She seemed to forget that livestock eat a great amount of soy.

They always have their cherry picked excuses.

It’s too yucky to recycle

The video was… stimulating.

Still learning rust

Congratulations you’ve just unlocked midlife crisis. You can now wear sunglasses inside and shop at camp david.

I’d totally be on board with this if the moderation was aimed purely at such cases.

I’m afraid it will be used to oppress minorities and suppress political opinion. Are we going to keep putting people in jail for their political opinions?

Uhh dude have you ever looked into what types of characters run these companies? You’re just an npc to them.

Do you really think our current economic system incentivizes good behavior? It’s all about being exploitative, and so it filters out anybody who cares about others. If they don’t, then someone else will. Take a look at starbucks. They don’t pay taxes in for example Germany. If they did, as other coffee shops do, they will go down. So the system dynamics filter out the people who are prepared to not care about others.

I’ve got a question! Can I run a router on just any piece of hardware, say a pi? Or do routers need special hardware for low latency translation?

There was some kind of an upgrade and it had privacy issues in the eula. I was dual booting for a while already.

Use Obtainium

I’ll take some time to research it. Price is also a thing rn.

Edit: After some research it seems it’s not really clean cut. I’m sticking to a single LAB due to simplicity and cost.

Check out the Snowden movie. That’s so much worse.

I haven’t really researched this, but this is my take based on what I’ve been able to put together from hearing stuff.

Unfortunately the materials like lithium are sourced from some really nasty mines and is greatly damaging to the environment and the locals. And it can’t really easily be recycled, so the only practical way is to mine more.

On the other hand lead acid has easy to source materials such as lead and can come from recycling old lead acid batteries. They might have some rare earth metals in the anode and cathode, but that’s it.

My motor most likely has some of those too and it’s hard to avoid entirely.

The only downside is that lead acid can leak nasty materials into the environment. But if you dispose of it correctly that won’t happen of course. And I’m getting a sealed one so not much can go wrong.

The cycles are not really relevant. A gel lead acid recharged daily will last me 3 years. Then I’ll just recycle it and get a fresh one. It isn’t expensive either.

Sure it is 3x as heavy as li ion, but I am not at a point yet where I feel this is a problem.

Does that fall under Li ion? They aren’t as sustainable as far as I’m aware. Lead acid is easier to recycle.

I’ll consider it if the current one is really too heavy.

Welcome to the club

Thank you little amoeba 🦠

Yeah checks out here’s your funds 💰

You just have to sit while peeing if you’re a guy
