Containers are very lightweight. I have no desire to build anything so I always just add another service container to my existing stacks.

As the battery components are valuable the recycling is pretty effective. The problem with household recycling is that there is no economic value for most of our waste.

The battery components are very much recyclable.

Woke now means, in rightwing gibberish, anything you disagree with.

Too bad this Lemmy.world gets spammed by rightwing propaganda.

It is. Would you agree that it is a bit less problematic than social media gaze farming?

Once upon a time, back when broadcast tv was how most people consumed media, governments recognized that advertisers on tv needed to be regulated, there were limits on how much advertising could be crammed into an hour. But as ‘gummint regulation bad’ we’ve allowed an entire generation to grow up enthralled by 24/7 gaze farming on their phones. This was a really bad idea.

There obviously is nothing wrong, superficially, with people having different preferences. There is something very obviously wrong with Algorithm based commercial social media platforms that deliberately ‘gaze farm’. Framing this as ‘just a choice’, is not really engaging in what that choice is, in this case, and why people are making it, and how hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of people being continuously gaze farmed is altering social consciousness. But sure, “There’s nothing inherently wrong with that”, for some value of ‘that’.

People obviously enjoy The Algorithm. They enjoy a feed that is constantly full. The fact that it is full of noxious shit is irrelevant. Those that come here from The Algorithm to mastodon or lemmy or anywhere else where The Algorithm is not present are immediately put off. Effort is required to fill your feed, it is an active rather than a passive experience. There is something entirely sexual about this dynamic. People enjoy being brain fucked by The Algorithm.
