The terms of this program on the Staples.com site, which servers the USA market, stipulate U.S. stores.


Staples® Recycling Program (“Program”)

Terms and Conditions (“Terms”)

In an effort to reduce waste going to landfills, Staples has created the Staples Recycling Program which offers Customers the option of bringing in select items to Staples® U.S. stores...

This Program is available to all Staples customers that bring in eligible recyclable items. Customers who are 18 years of age or older with a valid U.S. mailing address and a valid email address may enroll in the Staples Easy Rewards™ program to earn points for eligible recyclable items that they recycle with Staples. The Program applies to Staples U.S. stores only.


I would describe the recycling information at Staples.ca, which I found at https://www.staples.ca/a/content/sustainability, as no more than a collection of brochure-quality blurbs about their recycling services' availability, with no information about an incentive program; I see no mention anywhere of paying the customer for bringing in recyclable items. That's not to say that Staples.ca mayn't just be slow to update with new information. If such an incentive-based initiative is in effect at Canadian stores too, that's great news.

I found this small community just a few days ago: !cd_collectors@lemmy.sdf.org Thought it was interesting, and curious. I did not know that CDs are considered by some as collectible.

This is available to me on Kanopy.com through my public library. Added it to my watchlist.

Why would you assume anything? The answer is provided in the article itself. Why can so few people be arsed to read the information provided before leaping to an attempt at pithy commentary?

The group ... views Satan not as a supernatural being but as “a literary figure that represents a metaphorical construct of rejecting tyranny over the human mind and spirit.” The club’s programs, they say, focus on “science, critical thinking, creative arts, and good works for the community.”

(Boldface mine. "science" comes to us from Latin's "scientia": knowledge)

The irony of assuming something instead of learning/confirming it from the information provided, as regards an article about an organization whose stated focus is on knowledge and critical thinking, is disappointing.

Fixed:

They drew bags under the basilisk's eyes for the Harry Potter Lego set; [sic] as if ~~it's too tired from being woken up by kids. It's the most relatable thing ever~~ the skin under their eyes actually looks like that. It does.

Add more RAM.

There's a checkbox for this in your Lemmy account settings. It's not in any mobile client app that I've tried (I don't think so, at any rate).

Admittedly I've tried only 3 or 4 mobile client apps, but likely it doesn't need to be a client setting because it's a Lemmy setting, accessed in web browser UI.

You should include your URL as a header or footer on this PDF (and on the original JPEG, too) so it can be properly attributed when it inevitably gets shared.
