Sweden@lemmy.world•Kan det vara så att privatiseringen av en samhällsfunktion, än en gång, inte var en så bra idé?

2·14 days agoThat’s why I used the phrase: “if leather were a by-product”
I was simplifying the sake of the example.

2·14 days agoI didn’t think about it before, but plastics might be a “fairer” material than leather. Depending on how you look at it.

21·14 days agoThis is what makes it hard as a consumer to be conscious of our choices. Sometimes, it feels like a Dirac equation. For the sake of this example, let’s say that we only have a choice between faux leather and leather coats. We can also say that suffering is a constant.
If leather were only a by-product of an already existing industry, should the environmental cost of rearing be included in the impact? If the chemicals used in tanning have a greater immediate negative environmental impact than faux leather, should that weigh heavier than the plastics’ impact over time?
Let’s say faux leather has a lower immediate and long-term impact. However, it’s less durable, even with proper care, resulting in needing to be replaced every year instead of once every 5 to 10 years. But then we have to take price into account. What if leather costs significantly more even with replacements factored in? Would that require more labor? Does the means of generating capital itself produce a worse environmental impact?
I sometimes struggle with choosing tomatoes.
The example was not to argue one over the other, but to explain what I meant in my initial comment. It doesn’t feel like a given that recycled plastics are the best choice for the environment. My assumptions might also be completely wrong.

32·14 days agoThis is not meant as a jab, cause I’m honestly curious. Wouldn’t abstaining from plastics altogether, even recycled, be more enviromentaly friendly? Like using wood and organic textiles. I mean microplastics found in basically everything now even embryos. As an example I have no idea what’s worse faux leather or real leather.
It feels like recycled plastics should be better for the environment than new, as long as the recycling process isn’t so inefficient that it pollutes more. But is it? Maybe using natural materials instead of plastics isn’t feasible for this type of application.
Anyways have a great day.
That’s one beautiful Abyssinian.

2·2 months agoIt is indeed an Ericsson branded Psion. Cool project. I wonder if those frequencies will become open once they discontinue them for regular cell transmission.
If you clear app data for Advanced Privacy, it solves the glitching. Had that same issue earlier this week.

Technology@lemmy.world•How "Learn to Code" Backfired on a Whole GenerationEnglish
34·2 months agoTo quote Adam Savage; The one skill to focus on, is how easy you are to work with. People will always take the less skilled but easy to interact with person, before the “full of them self” savant.
I’m using the word quote here in the broadest of sense. Cause I know I’m butchering the quote. Only remember the gist of it.

12·2 months agoOhh you… That’s very nice of you to say.
No I don’t work with writing documentation, but I’ve found that often times the "how to’s " miss the explanation part between steps, or don’t show enough examples for novices. Understanding what you are doing is sort of the point, and not adding context will make it harder for the reader to navigate any roadblocks that they may encounter. A step by step instruction shouldn’t leave you stuck on a step because the writer expects that you know how to navigate or find a specific menu. Unless it is explicitly stated of course. I don’t expect expert level documentation to also go through all the basics.

AD ligger ju som du säger uppe på LDAP, och erbjuder SSO och användare hantering. Men det går att integrera linux datorer i AD.
Gimp och Photoshop är två program som alltid används som jämnförelse i den här diskussionen, jag tycker att den är en ganska missvisande jämförelse då det blir lite implicit att det samma gäller för alla opensource alternativ.
Vidare är jag övertygad om att för alla de som primärt använder en Office suite så skulle Libre office vara ett fult adekvat alternativ. Nu finns ju även collabora som är en fork av Libre office med collaboration, för dem som vill kunna samarbeta på dokument. Och ja, jag vet att Excel har funktionalitet som inget annat kalkyl/spreadsheet program har. Men helt ärligt det är en försvinnande liten del av användarna som besitter de nödvändiga kompetenserna att nyttja dessa. Dessutom om adoptionen av Libre office hade ökat hade dessa funktioner garanterat kommit om det efterfrågades av en bred användare bas.
Edit: Görs en ordentlig behovsanalys hittar man säkert många platser där Windows inte är en nödvändighet.
