Waking up the safety operator perhaps.

Dutch food is pretty bland, but plenty of Indonesian, Moroccan and Turkish immigrants to add some desperately needed variety.

Just started Exordia. It’s great for a particular kind of sci-fi fan. Reminds me of Ian McDonald a little.

Thanks! Seems interesting, added it to my to-read.

Wait… have you actually lost your mouse? Hilarious if true 😂

Sure, I just showed you the report, you may draw your own conclusions upon reading it. But in my opinion they’ve long proven to be transparent and actionable when it comes to improving the industry, e.g. by co-founding the Fair Cobalt Alliance. And maybe they even had something to do with those changes in legislation, the EU itself seems to recognise as much…

“Fairphone has made a tangible impact by improving working conditions for miners and factory workers, increasing the use of fair-trade and recycled materials, and extending product lifespans to combat e-waste. Its advocacy has influenced industry giants and policymakers to adopt fairer, more sustainable practices.”

a vague promise

“Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, we collaborate with suppliers to develop improvement plans that are informed by detailed assessments and worker surveys.” p. 28

From their recently published annual(I think?) impact report. There’s a bit more detail under section 4.3, not crazy specific but definitely better than a vague promise imo.

Fair point, but I think I could separate those out pretty easily ;)

Definitely the one in China where a breaker box in the stairwell exploded. We were very lucky the whole place didn’t burn down.

Man, I love me some guzheng nowadays.

Long tailed tit:

But splitting the vote isn’t an issue with proportional representation is it? If the libs lose one seat to the greens that’s still one seat not occupied by the cons.
