One of the most infuriating aspects of food packaging in the U.K.

Not only does very little plastic get recycled anyway... The fact I would have to lug this type of specific plastic back to some supermarket to turn it for "recycling" instead of being picked up at the kerb is frankly downright insulting.

We need better, environmentally friendly packaging.. not this shit. Our planet deserves better.

Picture of the back of a package of frozen fruit that has a black clockwise recycle store but next to it says: Don't recycle at home. Then in capital letters in white on green: RECYCLE WITH BAGS AT LARGE SUPERMARKET

게임을 못 만들었으면 시장에서 외면 당하는게 그 자체로 징벌이고, 한국은 개인이나 기업의 실패에 대해 절대 너그럽지 않은 나라고, 만약 노동법을 위반하고 사내 괴롭힘 같은 일을 했으면 민사 형사 책임을 지면 될 일이고, 불특정 다수 익명의 수백 수천명이 개인 실명을 언급하면서 특정 개인을 조롱하고 공격하는건 전혀 다른 문제다.

"The earlier internet was a haven, everyone making it up as they went along. You couldn’t use it to buy stuff and have it delivered the next day, but you could communicate with people, old and new friends, anywhere, instantly. A true, astonishing marvel."

thunderbird, mozilla

I use Thunderbird and would like to support them. But I've never been sure about their relationship with Mozilla and hadn't bothered to figure it out.

They don't feature the info prominently, but it is at the bottom of their FAQ.

It's pretty clear that a donation to Thunderbird is a donation to Mozilla, which ain't happening! 😢

FAQ text in image ALT.

Screenshot of two sections from the Thunderbird FAQ:

1. How will my gift be used?

Thunderbird is the leading open source email and productivity app that is free for business and personal use. Your gift helps ensure it stays that way, and supports ongoing development.

2. What is Thunderbird’s relationship to MZLA Technologies Corporation?

MZLA Technologies Corporation is a wholly owned for-profit subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation and the home of Thunderbird.

New, from me: DHS says immigration enforcement employees like ICE are facing unprecedented threats and 1000% increase in assaults. But the data does not add up. Look at the details, and we see state agents using excessive force, and then lying about it. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

Who's Threatening Who?
