Without this kind of progress described (meaning reutilising, refining or reprocessing lithium), mining might become even more brutal to keep costs down for investors and corporate buyers, but remain ever more expensive for consumers.

Marginally lower cost over 500 possible cycles under ideal conditions… this does not take into account other pollutants it may cause or the human element. Still, very positive as a total, as this is a resource a way hitherto untapped (unless you count risky social media innovatives who almost burn up their homes making lithium batteries from vapes and whatnot).

Trist. Då har jag ett till företag att sluta handla ifrån.

There are varying statistics about this. Will not be able to support my answer with links or studies at this point, but some of the issues that are common factors combined are:

  • Mental health issues, can be exacerbated by PTSD.
  • Exclusion from society, feeling isolated, being an outlier.
  • Low economic status, unemployed or working low status, low wage jobs.
  • Being or perceived as being maltreated by authorities.

In general, minorities (not immigrants per se) are usually overrepresented in jailing or convictions regardless of crime rate. While immigrants try to stay low and not attract negative attention due to their vulnerable status, they can end up overrepresented in media due to reactions to their crimes. It’s easier to attribute mental health issues to someone representative of the majority acting out in a grossly criminal way, than it is to someone who is way more traumatized thanks to the country they’re seeking refuge in.

They kept provoking, pushing and stressing immigrants until a guy with mental illness and PTSD snapped, now they can use the ”terrorist” card.

Yeah, deport those trying to get educated and contribute to society. That’s the way to make your country great again. mumbles under breath about nurses who finished their education and workplace years just to be deported upon being qualified (equivalent of) registered nurses in Sweden

And using it to promote right-wing ideology, conservative issues and against solidarity.

Thank you for saving me from searching it up.

I retract my statement. I confused the parliament with their other house, I should know better.

But wòdka has no place in politics.

Also, don’t let your cat drink coffee!

Or eat chocolate. Or fun stuff.

I hope we hear their gorgeous opera before Earth is ushered away like a hill next to a planned highway…

Sverige har under det senaste året upplevt en alarmerande ökning av sprängdåd kopplade till kriminalitet. Trots detta är Sverige inte det land i Europa som drabbats värst – det är Nederländerna. Orsakerna bakom explosionerna skiljer sig dock från situationen i Sverige.

Nederländerna har rapporterat 678 explosioner fram till till och med juni 2025, vilket är mer än sex gånger fler än de 104 explosioner som inträffat i Sverige under samma period, visar siffror som SVT tagit fram. Det sätter Sverige på andra plats i Europa.

[…]

Orsakerna till de många explosionerna i Nederländerna skiljer sig från situationen i Sverige. Även om metoderna liknar de i Sverige, där unga pojkar ofta används som utförare, handlar det inte om konflikter mellan kriminella gäng.

 

I can eat sushi, pizza, samosas, kebab (kabobs, döner or shawarmas depending on your frame of reference), gyoza/pot stickers/tortellone/pasteczki (or whatever), noodles/ramen/spaghetti, knödeln/kroppkakor and so on and so on. Leaving lots of cultures unsaid.

I can enjoy music, cringy cultural movies (animated and not), fun cirque sessions (even without animals being endangered), go to festivals for various cultures, enjoin then in our cultures of scouting, mountaineering, hiking and share my love of enjoying nature.

I can drive electric cars, communicate on Internet forums, keep in touch with new friends as well as loved ones across the world.

I would be in a much poorer world without you all.

From last year, as it's too early and hot for it currently.

 

This picture is so old that image searches turned up even worse resolutions than the one I had on my computer.

 

The thought struck me that I enjoy hearing seagulls squawking when I am on vacation abroad, preferably close to the sea with a fresh breeze when you open the windows… I can fall asleep to that.

But I absolutely loathe the sound of seagulls that are nesting on house roofs near my home, far from the sea. They are fighting with other birds all the time and won’t stop squawking all night which makes it hard to sleep at times.

So when I am abroad, seagulls are fine. When I’m at home, seagulls are a pest.

Was cleaning up in my picture archive and came across this one. Had to do a reverse image search, as I had completely forgotten what the subject was about. Then I found some relevant articles, here's one:

An 8.9 magnitude earthquake hit Japan on March 11, 2011, and this picture was so orderly and serene compared to the other ones from the disaster. Which is probably why I decided to save it.

 

Supposedly melatonin-infused (among other things) patches, sold on Amazon. If I were to fall asleep at the office, I sure wouldn't need any help with that. In the car though... scratches head
