Ooo, is it made by the people I work for? Because this story sounds incredibly familiar to me.

Well enough. The bag of milk forces enough air that it's basically suction held until the milk's almost gone.

Also, the cardboard hasn't been waxed in years. It's plastic lined

It's true that the toolset isn't here now, and the network is actually very fragile at the moment.

It's also true that platform builders don't seem to want to deal with these kinds of tools, for raisins.

But it's also true that temporary blocks are both effective and not that big of a deal.

I'm not sure why you'd think that manual moderation will lead to small instances getting barred, though. Unless you're predicting that federation will move to whitelisting, rather than blacklisting? That's historically been the tool of corporate services, not personal or community ones.

Can't wait to be "agreeing" to share my bank statements under duress going forward. Everyone who thinks your money is theirs, and that you're just an inconvenient transfer medium, is going to be on this train.

Don't worry, those plastic jugs and plastic lined cardboard boxes are fulfilling your daily microplastic requirements just fine.

It's worth remembering that being accepted in a blue bag and actually being recycled are two very different things. Much of the plastic we've "recycled" over the years just ended up in landfills in China.

Remember the old "Where does it go?" "Away," PSAs from the late '80s and early '90s? Well, plastic recycling has been that, but at an industrial scale.

Oh, they have problems with indigenous people, too.

If you create an image generator that always returns clean cut white men whenever you ask it to produce a "doctor" or a "business man", but only ever spits out black when when you ask for a picture of someone cleaning, your PR department is going to have a bad time.
