Element X is a completely different beast though. Not only is it a successful Rust rewrite, but they also fixed the system architecture of Matrix to improve speeds. They haven’t matched Telegram’s usability though, but they’re close to Signal’s.

Good ol’ Rust Rewrite fixing everything.

That’s probably a mark of an actually good programmer.

That’s just being good at programming

I played it for a while. It was ok for the time, when there weren’t many pseudorealistic tactical FPS games.

Well yeah, kinda. Unless you think Nixon knew about that.

Generally speaking, you shouldn’t do anything on the internet that you absolutely don’t want to become public. If you don’t want people to know your votes, don’t vote.

Getting banned sucks but it’s not great form to complain about it publically. You can just block the sub and move on.

Aren’t they already practically public, given the federation?

I read somewhere that because recycling plastic isn’t profitable, under the capitalist system there’s no incentive to do so.

Not just unprofitable in a capitalist sense, but inefficient. A typical plastic beverage container can be recycled two or three times before the plastic degrades too much to be usable.

Socialism won’t save you here. Unless said socialism bans plastic products.

NGL that’s more than I thought, but nevertheless: don’t use plastic if you can avoid it. It’s not easy to recycle.

For instance, for beverages, prefer cans or your own glass / metal water bottles.

That said, 9% is a huge lot better than 0%. edit or considering the amount of plastics we use, a huge lot better than 8% too.

Yes, we should all recognize that Lemmy.ml is a tankie instance.
