Definitely a good point if if doesn’t actually need to be plastic, i highly prefer natural materials overall. But thats not always practical.
I dont get the “someone elses problem” though. If the item is still perfectly usable then why would the next owner not also just want to use it? I personally value a hand me down that “served” my family for ages over “new thing”
If it is broken then it should just get recycled.
Under current consumerism the pattern is that shit breaks and you buy it new, which causes us to psychologicly devalue the item (and thus materials) as it ages, i believe this is why so many plastics end up non recycled.
If items where durable, reliable, repairable. People will be more capable to perceive their value and be more concious about what happens to it after it breaks because losing it will hurt. Not quite like but somewhat similar to how we care about what happens to remains after death.

Supposedly greenpeace calls it “the poison plastic” and “the most enviromentally damaging plastic”
Gonna have to ask them for their scientific sources.
Personally i think plastics are fine if the product is actually durable. I take good care of my things. My 15 year old ipad mini is practically mint and if it wasnt for “making it more enviromental” i would still be using its original cable also.

FYI:
Greenpeace pressured apple to stop using PVC in their plastics around 2007
Apple realised they could gain PR while making more money by having customers needing to rebuy new cables.

I am so confused, i saw this post like 20 minutes ago… how do i have an almost 2y old comment on it?
Anyway i am pretty sure i meant greedy corporations will eventually start exploiting eachother and the systems that allow them to exist.
- Comment on Why were the Mafia leaders not arrested 1 month ago:
The current chairman of the Japanese mafia is Kenichi Shinoda
There main headquarters are in Koba, some of their offices are labeled with a plaque.
The point is that it does not matter that everyone knows they did the crime in legal court, what counts is that you can prove it. Which is almost never the case.
They got Al Capone on tax evasion, cause thats what they could prove.
Crime bosses act with impunity, they didn’t murder that person, some lowly criminals did. You cant get a warrant to search their property for some reason and when you do the place appears to be unnaturally clean because the right people are in their pocket.
Japanese police could arrest the chairman of the Yakuza right now, lower level crime will spike from the chaos (because the yakuza employs them for less visible bigger crime) till someone else will take the chairman’s place and nothing will be different.

I remember rumours at school that the strawberry flavour could get you instant addicted.
I doubt that is true, but I considered it a positive that people were worried about it.
Then the modern vape cartridge got invented and just like that the youth is back to paying companies to inhale poison.

How about an en”tire” tire appears where it makes no sense for one to be there.
- Comment on Everytime 🤧 2 months ago:
Wether upscaling is slop is based on the algorithm.
In this case its not even an upscale…
There is a whole ass tire in the ai image that is not in the original… because if you know what a car looks like there should not be one there.

This being ai slop is also mildly infuriating.

The caricature you sketch definitely does exist
But so does the IT hobbyist using an open source model with local hardware and customised training.
Of course i just realise that person wouldn’t call it an agent, they wouldn’t tell you to interview the agent and probably wisely frame it as:
“I develop my own tools and automation systems to free up time and resources for more important projects” at most refer to “machine learning” and absolute avoid using the term “ai”.
- Comment on Saber CEO scorns writer who says she was fired in favor of AI with confusing, combative statement 2 months ago:
The majority of games made by the gaming industry exist purely to create profit.
This is not the artist and developers fault, they are still passionate but their hands are tied to executive whims.
It’s genuinely almost all shit. The only good games left are indie games and older gems.
Honestly way cheaper and not requiring the latest hardware either.

The last part of the url is still the same Video id from youtube. You can copy that in whichever you use.
The internet actually really needs an overhaul to how links are presented. So you can press a video link and opening in the compatible player you prefer.
Same issue exists on lemmy. A link will send you to the instance of the poster, we have special ! Links to bridge the gap but i can never remember how to use em.

Public invidious instances are more a proof of concept, its much more performant to run it yourself.
