Yeah Lemmy has been good so far. I still use Reddit every now and then due to some niche communities that I follow. But the damn app is a disaster! It has really helped me to reduce my time over there. 3rd party apps were king.

Me too!

I really wish I could find a solid replacement for twitter, so I could finally leave. Mastodon does not it it for me and Blue Sky is impossible to get into.

A tragedy on top of another.

May these heroes rest in peace.

Wildfires are getting bigger and more intense. Emergency services will always be a step behind at this rate.

Based on what? Is not like he has played in the MLS to be able to make an informed comparison.

Of course it’ll be madness to say the contrary. Would not want to anger his current employer.

Is this audited in any way by authorities? How do you know what has been recycled and what is “virgin” plastic?

That’s definitely the way forward in my opinion. Do people get any incentive to use the deposit system or it’s already ingrained in the culture?

But that’s a big assumption to work from no? The fact that a plastic bag is going to be used more than once. I mean definitely a paper bag is less practical, but it won’t end up in a landfill trying to decompose for god knows how many years…

There are loads of single use plastics in our daily lives that are pretty much heading to a landfill as they won’t be recycled.

Out of curiosity, how are paper bags more polluting than plastic ones?

Also, from what I have been reading, the problem with plastic is that it’s actually marketed as widely recyclable, but nobody actually recycles plastic as it is too expensive (water bottles, plastic packaging, etc…). Its actually cheaper to produce more plastic than to recycle.

Definitely a step towards the right direction.

Can’t help but think that companies are going to find a way to turn this into profit…

Well I really hope that you can get hold of one soon.

I’m also using a variety of methods to track any changes in stock. Apparently they email notifications from them are useless.
