The decline in walkie-talkies and CB radio is unfortunate. Except in rural areas or niche uses, the public has gone full mobile. It was the ultimate peer-to-peer, distributed, information technology, just lacking good encryption

Recycling plastic anything is basically a myth at scale. The problem is worse for mixed products I.E. envelopesThe sheer volume of padded/bubble envelopes is such that it may be more environmentally friendly to incinerate themNever thought I'd say that

This symbol ♻️ (recycle) is basically a lie for all but two kinds of plastics: PET, numbered "1" in the triangle, and HDPE, numbered "2". And even these only get recycled if collected and stored properly. So almost noneVirtually everything else gets chucked

Stark reminder of what could happen with improper (dis)charge limiting or monitoring with any Lithium battery chemistryThermal runaway will ruin your day (and your lungs, if you're close, and worse)This is why my DIY chemistry is Zinc Bromide. No chance of thermal runaway

@baldur @simeon Part of it is education, but most is powerful brainwashing. What I mean is, most people in positions of power in the U.S. business world, either directly or indirectly, will denigrate or question collective bargaining and worker rights in general Business schools in particular place emphasis on connections and those tend to be with other business leaders with a similar mindset. To maintain those connections, you end up assimilating some of the same thoughts and mannerismsSource: Went to business school
