too
Funny that you say that. I always get the low end phones so I don't expect much performance-wise. I didn't even know it was possible for me to have a reasonable mobile web browsing experience because Chrome was always so awfully laggy while also making everything else lag and I didn't expect Firefox to be any different. Then I actually tried it, and holy shit the internet actually works. Not only that, I can't even tell that I'm browsing on a shitty low end phone.
Why haven't we seen any of that happening?

Il ne semble pas comprendre que tout le monde a le droit au comfort chez soi, pas juste lui.
$100 000 pour une infraction semble haut, mais après plusieurs avis et aucun changement, je pense que c'est plutôt juste.
If the companies had to pay per bottle, do you really think they’d still be using single use packaging like that?
If it's the same 5/10/25c per container, then they very likely will. Consumers have already decided that this price is worth paying for the convenience, so it makes little difference if companies paid this and passed on the cost to consumer, or if it's transparently shown as a separate reimbursable fee. In the end, all the costs get passed on to consumers and it's left to us to vote with our wallets. I think the main issue is that the cost of producing containers doesn't reflect the true long term cost, and the solution to that is probably to impose a tax based on the amount of material used. That way, consumers making the choice that's right for them will also mean making the choice that's right for everyone else.
For things that can't be recycled, I would agree. But if it can be, then it still needs to be brought to a recycling facility to make that happen. Without this incentive, a lot more of it will end up in landfills.
Had a kid early this year and fitness has mostly fallen to the wayside. I'd be pretty happy of I can get back to about 80% of my peak strength before the end of the year.
Probably all the generative models, including those that generate text (e.g. ChatGPT) and images (e.g. StableDiffusion).
No one gets tested for it because it's very rare for it to not match up with your assigned sex at birth. Why spend hundreds of dollars on a test when you can just ask someone and get things right over 90% of the time? In recent years, doctors have always asked for both gender identity and assigned sex at birth, presumably because both are medically relevant.
But the OP is clearly not about medical data for healthcare purposes.
I've been telling YouTube not to recommend these types of videos and it seems to work well with minimal effort on my part. When I look at the homepage, it's all cooking and math videos, and it's been that way for years now.
As a consumer, I think it makes more sense to have the percentage by volume. Firstly, it makes the general pattern of alcohol content much clearer so we get a better intuition of what we're getting into. Beers generally hover around 5%, wines at 10-15%, and spirits at 20% and above.
Building on that, people don't generally remember the volume of pure alcohol they can handle, but they do remember, for example, that three glasses of wine is the most that they should drink. If you're presented beer, then along with your intuition of their relative alcohol content, you can easily approximate that you can handle about twice as much volume since it's about half the alcohol by volume. And similar if you have spirits, then you can reduce that volume to half or less.
How would you estimate it given a volume of alcohol instead? I know I can handle three glasses of this one particular kind of wine. If I have another type of wine with a different alcohol content and different bottle size, I'll have to math out how much alcohol will be in my glass: (Volume of glass)*(total alcohol context)/(Volume of wine bottle). Most people would give up before even trying to come up with this formula. Now how much alcohol did I have the last time when I had three glasses of wine? The bottle said something like 80ml of alcohol. But how big was it? That's two large numbers that you need to remember, and since they're so different from one bottle of wine to the next, you likely don't remember any of it.
Secondly, it affected flavour. In general, you can taste how much alcohol is in a certain drink and that depends on the relative volume of alcohol, not the absolute amount.
If that were your goal, wouldn't it be better to get more people into Lemmy? Make the free alternatives a better experience so they stay and bring their friends over. If the average user encounters gatekeeping, they'll be more likely to just go back to Reddit or Facebook or whatever and get the help they need there, and you'll have given those corporations a bit more power.
The issue I have with wearing a weighted vest throughout the day is that it moves your fitness workload into the parts of your day where you want to reap the rewards of being fit, thereby defeating the purpose of undergoing this journey in the first place. I can't speak for the effectiveness though.
For hiking/jogging, you might benefit from replacing that weight with something more practical, like water or snacks.
