Ah never saw it

I thought the fan theory was the route included a near pass by a black hole or something, and 12 parsecs would be the shortest "sane" route that didn't either

  1. Require bravery/luck verging on stupidity
  2. God tier course charting to get the orbital routing just right

So to do it in less than 12 would just be generally unheard of

I only use work hardware for work. I only use work networks for work. I have a cell phone off wifi for everything else

Not really the point of the post but sure, or directly relevant to my comment no contest with the options you laid out

Who brought up plastics?

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That's a bit of a leading question, as if I advocated for single use Plastic specifically.

I'm not a food health scientist so I'd leave it at: as a consumer I want whatever keeps people safe, and is of the least impactful material. Commonly that's plastic, but as we see with glass bottles, options exist.

I'm not denying any of that but this community and others had much more friendly us eu relations just a year ago (edit compared to closer relationships with Russia...ever?) I'm just sad about that, not calling it uncalled for or something

Op why don't you suggest what an acceptable reply looks like? You're pretty restricted on what type of advice you're seeking. Maybe then folks can ad libs in the thing that will help.

I'm all for packaging minimization but I also acknowledge that if I, the consumer seek single serving products, I'm pretty glad they are food safe and isolated. This is the part where "reduce" in the recycling slogan can manifest: what's the absolute minimum packaging needed to keep a consumer safe?

I'm not saying companies shouldn't ever be responsible for their packaging waste, it's a good idea. But I think municipal trash is meant to be that answer, in that rather than every company managing their own streams of returns, the locality does it, and sorts them by general type for efficiency/efficacy.

Therefore I think it best to factor waste costs from the company into that centralized system, so efficiencies of scale can manifest. This allows for better oversight and lower overall costs. The game is not allowing companies to be absent from this stage.

With acknowledgment that increased costs would land on the consumer one way or another, I'd conclude by saying centralized waste management needs to be better funded, and more sophisticated recycle/reuse systems implemented with those new funds.

 

I go to the dentist annually, brush twice daily and floss 3 or 4 times a week, but man oh man is this electric toothbrush a whole new world...my teeth feel dentist clean each time. By no means was my mouth poorly taken care of, but it feels in a different world now.

If you can, get one ASAP.

 

I'm not much for shopping or fashion but I realized my closet had a bunch of literal decade plus old button downs and sweaters and such I haven't worn in many years.

I bagged a few for trash that are beat up, bagged some for donation, and vacuum-space saver bagged the few worth keeping but currently uninteresting.

So nice to not have to wrestle to get useful, regularly worn things stored in my pretty-small closet.

For many places that are used to seasonal snow, there could likely be a day in our lifetime, where folks see their last blizzard. Their last big snowfall.

Makes me cherish the cold and the snow even more.

Edit hope random thoughts like this are ok here.

I was just banned for a comment that was critical of kamala Harris, critical of Hamas, pro Palestinian civilians who are suffering genocide from the Israeli government

"Rule 1" and I didn't even use a slur or anything.

Quotes incoming, have to copy paste

 

Just seems like everything is "this company did this to their employees" and less about "this novel messaging protocol offers these measured pros and cons." Or similar

And yes, I could post things, but I'm referring to what hits the top, 12h.

Can anyone rec communities with less of a biz and politics and wfh vs in-office vibe?
