Just to get this straight, in Germany if coca cola sells a can of coke to a consumer and that it is somehow returned to them through a deposit scheme or something they are legally bound to recycle entirely that aluminium foil ?

If that's the case that's amazing but in many countries in Europe a lot of effort is done to collect recyclable stuff but that certainly does not mean it will be recycled.

There is a vast difference between something being mandatory to put in the recycling bin and it actually being recycled for real.

Do people only throw away the caps?

Well yes, many throw caps and bottle separately and the people that throw their trash anywhere will certainly not care about the caps.

make it mandatory that companies recycle their own waste.

Lol.

In what country is it mandatory for companies to recycle soda cans ?

The excuse is generally not that they work harder but that their experience and skill makes them somehow difficult to find.

But again even if they have very specific experience and skills these salaries are absolutely bullshit.

It's not like 1 in a million person can handle a CEO job. It's obviously not true.

I really think we should all have laws that set the maximum gap between salaries in a business. That way CEO can still bullshit people about insane salaries but at least they will have to pull up everybody in the business.

Let's instrument the CEO greed so that they are forced to pay everybody below them before they can get a raise.

What about a new article in the constitution?

I guess most will find this completely overkill but access to free information should be a right everybody has and no party should be able to remove that.

I understand amending the constitution of any country should be done very carefully but keeping century old constitutions is completely dumb imo. Some articles are still relevant today others are not or would seriously benefit in being updated.

Then you are incredibly lucky.

I think that it's just the version OP has.

Implying he definitely didn't install a cracked version of office.

That's interesting!

I'll look into it.

The big players here are Apple and Samsung. If both open their network it would be absolutely amazing...

In western Europe, it doesn't look good. In my city I seldom see other tiles.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Where I live there is almost no tile users.

Tile is the same concept as Airtag with the exception that you probably won't recover what you have lost because it's incredibly unlikely it will be pinged by a tile user.

I say that owning multiple tiles. I'm just saying these locators things are only as useful as their network. And the tile Network is mostly very weak.

What sucks is that Apple and Samsung are both restricting the use of their network. Nothing is interoperable as usual. And so the consumer is the one literally losing.

I see simple scenarios:

  1. PS5 console in a family.
  2. Gamer 1 plays multiplayer with gamer 2
  3. Gamer 2 leaves and just puts the controller down
  4. Gamer 1 starts playing a solo game unaware controller 2 is wirelessly still connected to the console
  5. Gamer 1 herits from stick drift from controller 2

Seems like a fairly reasonable thing to happen when it comes to console use.

Think about a controller that remained ON and has stick drift.

You are playing solo but that unused controller keeps parasiting the inputs.

Good luck troubleshooting this.

And thanks to Sony for making sure stick drifts is still a thing. The solution exists and doesn't seem very expensive...

Highly recommend to do "news breaks".

I really feel better since I started avoiding the news. I just read the headlines of some notifications on my phone and it's enough for me.

I feel almost as great as when I ditched Facebook a long time ago.

Makes you realize how heavy the news can be to moral.

Like the recent headlines about subsidized oil being very much a thing now. This is so very deeply disturbing I just can't handle it. And I just read the headline I can't even imagine reading a full article explaining to me that we are getting worse for climate change. We indeed are accelerating toward the cliff.

Still, I feel still so much more relaxed not watching the news on any kind of video platform.

Try it.
