@zdl imho it's a bit different : the hype meta and web3 brought is down, it's a good thing, but the tech is still growing, with the fruit company joining in, and a still growing trend of sell in the VR gaming segment, while the tech is being more and more used in professional and education environments ...
Any hype is a problem, and the fact you hardly can get out a "product" without it is a very concerning question of #permacomputing #sustainablility #democracy

Scary. And that's not all...

Q: Can we recycle phosphorous sustainably?
A: No.

"The main finding of this paper contradicts the general opinion about environmental friendliness of recycling. It shows that phosphorus recycling is not a sustainable solution in a longer perspective."

ID: a picture of a bicycle on a cobbled street mounted behind a hearse bearer on wheels, so the casket is transported by pedal power. There is a tree in the background.

Hi Fedi! Can i get some thoughts about how I can reuse this what appears to be a tie box? It seems to be in decent condition but I don't wear ties. This box's lid is both the display mechanisim and the way you shut the box. The depth is maybe 2 in?

Renewable energy may just soften the fall not prevent it if we don't slow world growth.

Measuring the extraction of key renewable commodities such as copper is like taking the blood pressure of world growth. Recent costs are up 300% while the ore grade has fallen by 30%.
At our current rates of extraction it would take roughly 1000 years of mining to replace fossil fuel infrastructure.

Just got off a call with the CEO of https://releaf-paper.com

Been working hard to find ways to make our company based in tourism(a very carbon-heavy industry) more sustainable and these guys are truly inspiring. Really want to find a way to make wine packaging with their product but I need a large volume to make it happen. For anyone who thinks they can help, I'm open to ideas. Need to get over 100,000 units a month to get wine-sized bags made. Seems doable if we can get retailers to see the value. I so I would hope.

Either way I'll keep supporting them at theLAB(our wine shop) with the oversized bags for now.

Apropos of another conversation, I love https://squoosh.app for compressing images. Works in your browser, and it's good for quickly cutting down filesize.

Or it you're like me, being pedantic about getting the best size/quality ratio.
