Completely mind boggling to me that we threw away 5 billion phones in 2022.
Some of those could have been repurposed: smartphones are hardly innovating any more. The most eco-friendly phone is the one you already have.
We need to publicly support communities like @postmarketOS who work on making these phones repurposable, and @gnome that work on making a polished mobile experience that serves people, not creepy corporations.

Billions of phones will be hoarded in drawers and cupboards or thrown away rather than recycled, studies suggest.By Victoria Gill (BBC News)

Climate damages by 2050 will be 6 times the cost of limiting warming to 2°
Study tracks the past costs of climate events and projects them into the future.Ars Technica
It’s #EarthDay & I’m giving a talk all about the global food system & its impact on the environment.
The agricultural sector is one of the most significant + immediately scalable places to have impact.
Since my talk isn’t public, here’s a great piece from @globalecoguy & the good folks at Project Drawdown. drawdown.org/news/insights/how…
#climatechange #science #food
How food and farming will determine the fate of planet Earth
Agriculture has disrupted the planet more than anything we have ever done, including burning fossil fuels. A sustainable future depends on recognizing this fact – and radically changing how we farm and eat.Project Drawdown
Some related facts I saved from this profound Stanford study:
- More antibiotics are fed to farm animals than are used in all of human medicine.
- 82% of global fish populations are depleted.
- By 2050, we will need 3 planets if we continue to eat the way we eat.
Spoons have enormous potential for humanity, but also pose risks, such as being left out on the table and dripping honey on things that shouldn't have honey dripped on them.
That is why we need to re-engineer our spoons to be aligned with human values like keeping our surfaces clean, saving excess honey, and promoting flourishing.
I'm thrilled to announce I've received $1 billion in series A funding to solve this problem at scale.

Hello fedi. i am trying to solve the "fetch all replies" problem once and for all that makes the fedi feel a lot more desolate and with a lot more reply guys in it than it should be. this is take two, where before i had it triggered by a button, but now i think it should happen on the server-side whenever you expand a post. can anyone help me out figure out how to make this more efficient by only fetching posts that the server doesn't already have? i am not sure what the best strategy would be, and if anyone with experience doing efficient rails and SQL stuff could give me some pointers that would be gr8. the patch is actually extremely simple it just needs a few nice things to make it not DDoS everyone.
