Why should the manufacturer have to worry about where I am when it comes to what label they put on it? How could they know? That's not a reasonable burden to place on them.

Yep.

The separate aspects I see are:
  * Police the use of a symbol which actually means: this can be recycled (not - you mistakenly think this can be recycled because the logo is deceptive)
  * Coerce some large proportion of companies which collect garbage to provide recycling bins and to recycle anything put into them which can actually be recycled
  * Educate home-owners and businesses to put actually-recyclable (because now there's a logo which really means recyclable) things into the recycling bins
  * Profit!

Submission + - Christians are turning to AI for spiritual guidance (nerds.xyz)

BrianFagioli writes: A new study from Barna Group and Gloo suggests artificial intelligence is becoming a surprisingly influential spiritual tool for many Americans, including practicing Christians. According to the research, one in three adults now believes AI-generated spiritual guidance can be just as trustworthy as advice from a pastor. Among Millennials, that number climbs to 44 percent. The study also found many Christians are already using AI for Bible study, prayer assistance, personal growth, and finding meaning or purpose in life.

At the same time, many respondents expressed concern about where this trend could lead. Large majorities worried AI could misinterpret scripture, weaken religious faith, replace pastors, or even act as a substitute for God. Critics argue that while AI may be useful for studying religious texts or organizing information, it lacks wisdom, morality, lived experience, and genuine understanding. The findings raise uncomfortable questions about whether society is beginning to hand increasingly personal and spiritual responsibilities over to algorithms created by tech companies.

The symbol does not imply recyclability. I suppose by saying that it may only be placed on plastics which can be recycled in 60% of cases where a Californian places that plastic in a bin, the perceived meaning (recyclability) is being aligned with actuality - in California.

Presumably this would have a knock-on effect to other jurisdictions.

You have the foolishness to actually work there so deserve a taste of your own medicine.

Apparently this is going to be part of a broader theme now that the world has signalled they've had enough of kindergarten imperialism - there's gotta be an enemy to drive arms sales - in this case, that's you, US citizens (and Europe, Cuba, greenland, spain, etc.)

Did I mention fuck you? Probably but double yap ftw, right. No schoolgirls were murdered during the creation if this post.
