Still a very green banana.
If trump was really this big of an issue and clearly he is then why is he kept in power
Obviously rigged so the most incompetent more easily controlled elderly person gets to be president regardless if they prefer red or blue
Can’t fathom the ins and outs but something rotten stinks and it is not coming from Denmark
if these were not nikes would be cool as fuck
the shortage does in fact exist and it is because we live on a rock located in space in the middle of nowhere with no other resources available close by

Yes, the rare metals in electronics are a limited resource because they are non-renewable, and their availability is restricted by both their finite nature on Earth and the high cost and difficulty of extracting them from the ground. While some are more abundant than others, they are dispersed in low concentrations, making them difficult and expensive to mine. Recycling them is crucial to supplement mining and a more sustainable future, but current recycling rates for these metals are very low.
Why rare metals are a limited resource
Non-renewable:
Like other minerals, rare earth metals are not a renewable resource. There is a finite amount of them on Earth that we can access.
Scarcity and concentration:
They are not rare because of their chemical abundance, but because they are not found in high concentrations or easily mined deposits. This makes them challenging and costly to extract from raw ore.
Mining challenges:
Extracting these metals is often an environmentally damaging and energy-intensive process that can pollute soil and water.
The role of recycling
Recycling conserves resources:
Recovering metals from discarded electronics helps conserve finite natural reserves and reduces the need for new mining.
Low current rates:
Despite the challenges and the vast potential of e-waste, only a very small percentage of rare earth metals are currently recovered from discarded electronics globally.
Economic and environmental benefits:
Recycling reduces environmental impact, conserves energy, and can provide a more stable and secure supply chain for manufacturers, according to Reliable Recycling Center.
Implications
Supply chain vulnerability:
Reliance on mining makes the supply chain vulnerable to disruptions, especially when concentrated in only a few locations.
Future sustainability:
As demand for electronics grows, improving recycling rates is essential for future sustainability.
more time in jail than child rapists or murderers for computer parts is fucking nuts
no goddamn way on Satan’s Earth that would justify such a sentence
how much computing power got smuggled out sounds trivial

why are people not marching or rioting or committing acts of civil disobedience
still the same outside as yesterday and still waiting for the world to be tired of this shit too

this is just utter horseshit
eye for an eye makes everyone blind well in this case maimed or dead
fuck this timeline
fucking do it already lets go this riot and these civil disobediences are not going to commit themselves
considering how important health has been since the inception of the United States think healthcare would have been a priority
even presidents like Lincoln had to deal with shotty healthcare with those mercury pills
hundreds of years of needing healthcare but we are still dealing with this horseshit
why does it feel like flight cancellations and subsidies for private insurance companies got more attention than no EBT or government workers missing checks
been business as usual here sadly
thought it would have been done happened after the first missed reload of SNAP money
not to mention the workers missing checks
people here think just got vote straight ticket blue or red and forget about it like that is all that is necessary to safeguard democracy
so one side is exclusively and publicly on our side as citizens and the other is not and it is not both sides against the citizens?
only one side is for universal healthcare, less pollution, higher wages, etcetera?
if that were the case where is the healthcare, less pollution in the United States, the higher wages, etcetera?
if it is not both sides then why do both sides not only work together but do it even when not in the best interest of the citizens and it constantly shows all around the country?
the two parties even held a celebrity filled gala together where protesters that were for the welfare of everyone were locked outside
Bet Biden is mad he didn’t think of this shit first
US rather fight drugs and have poor uninsured citizens than have high well paid well fed citizens that have healthcare
Fucking nuts that either party gets any votes
Another commenter for on another post found academic studies that support the fact that less than 3% are needed
over subsidies that private insurance companies get paid
not over universal healthcare or something that would actually benefit people
both parties are a shitshow and people should stop supporting the two
Second paycheck?
How does this get this far?
After not being paid the first check and no EBT we should be in the goddamn streets by now
What the fuck is wrong in the United States?
we should all be staying out of work and rioting and participating in civil disobediences
When Roe v Wade expected more too but we just silently bent over saying but one more vote for our team will win it
Know right wtf
Worst timeline ever
Very noticeable here in the US how much college has become unaffordable and out of reach
Shows in everyday life here from the conversations to just any day to day interaction
In the media all comes out like it is made for young school kids with the words getting smaller and simpler with less sentence structures
Even if voting was not rigged here can tell with way people see our elected officials as football team members to rally behind
Higher education becoming unattainable will lead a country to poorer health, more underpaid factory workers, less quality of life for everyone, less progress, more repeated failures from history, etcetera
