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.

Almost is absolutely \s

Probably mostly because almost nobody uses it.

Those don't exactly do what I want -- which is clear separation of different work accounts. I'm not sure if this is what I need though, so perhaps I should take another look at what you suggested.

Well, there are some problems with this approach that are perhaps specific and rare, but still problems. Such as https://www.nbcnewyork.com/investigations/man-posing-as-transgender-woman-raped-female-prisoner-at-rikers-lawsuit-says/5067904/

If we didn't divide sports by sex, we would have had several sports where women could have not competed on the highest level. As an answer, it has worked well, and keeps working well for 99% of the cases.

We shouldn't throw away working solutions because they fail 1%. Unless of course you have a solution that works for a higher percentage without compromising the previously solved 99%.

There's one way subscription-based hardware might be a good idea: it would motivate the companies to focus on quality and repairability, because they would be the ones who have to deal with that stuff. Unless of course if the EULA of such hardware is complete shit. Which of course it will be.

I actually got NixOS after the latest time I tried it. But I also got that I don't want it, Arch is much simpler in all the good ways.

And perhaps something like https://github.com/kiviktnm/decman can some day give us part of Nix's power without going all-in with the functional declarative thingamadoodle.

I think the silver lining is that he might be too incompetent to actually pull it off, like last time he obviously tried it. Unfortunately, the US judicial or whatever system is also too incompetent to punish him so I guess he just gets to try it again and again until it works.
