What about anti-#Muslim bias? And anti-#Hindu bias? And anti-#Buddhist bias? These criminals #trash the #constitution daily and the #GOP / #MAGA are ok with it; rather they cheer it on. GOP is now the embodiment of everything anti-#American. Oh, how the party of #Lincoln has #fallen!
All these bearings no longer do what they are supposed to do. Roll well. What am I supposed to do with these now? They dont look serviceable?
It's such a shame, and waste, that it's not easier to install some "generic tablet OS" on tablets that are EOL, regardless of if it's a Samsung, Lenovo, or whatever tablet.
Yes, I know there are "distributions" out there and instructions on how to "root"; but it's often very specific to models, brands, etc.
The amount of fully functional hardware being discarded / thrown away is staggering

Des petits djeunz qui n'en veulent !

I have spent the last 2 years focusing on waste management, especially that of Electronic Waste—from the mining of the resources to the discarding of the commodities, and while we are well aware of the pattern of disparity between the over-consumption in the Global North and overproduction in the Global Majority parts of the world, the problems largely still exists. Who to blame, somebody is surely making profits from this trade deal.
Anthropocene is a (Poubelle)ocene.
Certain headlines, like the one below, always make me feel disgusted, knowing that the patterns of dreadful and atrocious colonial practices are still prevalent. I am so perplexed as to what design thinking hat to put on or what circular economy principles to explain the exporting of trash to their previous colonies.
Not only that, but in a recent survey commissioned by the Repair Campaign (https://repaircampaign.org/), more than 2,000 people in the UK found that 85% did not know that more than 3 million people had been forcibly shipped from Africa to the Caribbean by British enslavers. It also found 89% were unaware British merchants had enslaved people in the Caribbean for more than 300 years.

This bird's nest is made of candy wrappers and face masks. Here's what we can learn
Dutch doctoral student Auke-Florian Hiemstra excavated a bird nest, and made a startling discovery. From McDonald's lids to face masks, the nest was built with layers of human trash — the oldest piece dating three decades back.
