So, more nuclear plants and more mining, and probably the minimal amount of environmental remediation -- just enough to make superfund sites commercially viable, I'm sure...

House passes $895B #NDAA with energy, environment provisions

The bill excluded bipartisan priorities such as permitting reform but included a host of provisions on nuclear power, energy security and minerals.

"The House passed the fiscal 2025 National Defense Authorization Act on Wednesday, likely setting up a vote in the Senate in the coming days.

"The 281-140 vote moved Congress one step closer to approving the annual defense policy bill, which is loaded with provisions focused on energy security, #NuclearPower, critical minerals and environmental remediation."

16 places to responsibly dispose of old #electronics in #Philadelphia

When not properly recycled, #Ewaste can leach into the waterways — and we miss a chance to get more use out of precious materials.

Words by McKenzie Morgan

"For many Philadelphians, old #CellPhones, #laptops and other #electronics gather dust in drawers or boxes in the back of closets.

"When residents finally start to feel fed up with the clutter or during their annual spring cleanings, these devices are sometimes tossed into the trash or blue recycling bins. These forgotten electronics have become a part of a growing citywide e-waste problem.

"Philadelphia creates around 1.5 million tons of residential and commercial waste annually, according to government initiative SmartCityPHL. Electronics and textiles comprise about 10% of the city’s waste stream. The rest is sent to incinerators and landfills, bringing hazardous and resource-rich materials with it.

"But the good news is, there’s something residents can do about it.

"While giving up or not upgrading our devices isn’t always an option, getting them out of our curbside bins and landfills is. The Philadelphia metro region has over a dozen facilities where you can donate and properly recycle your e-waste, keeping them out of landfills and giving them new life.

Here’s a guide to places in the Philadelphia region to responsibly dispose of old electronics."

Peehee Mu'huh (#ThackerPass) -- "The Prayer Horse Ride, March 17-26, began in Schurz on its jouney to Peehee Mu’huh, Thacker Pass. The ride is in the traditional, ancestral and #unceded lands of the #Paiute, #Shoshone and #Bannock.

"'We do this prayer ride to reconnect our way of life,' said #JoshDiniSr., #WalkerRiverPaiute, #WaterProtector and #PrayerHorseRider.

"The Prayer Horse Ride is to raise awareness about #LithiumMining in #McDermittCaldera, and also #CopperMining in the #PineNutHills, in remembrance of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women/People (#MMIW / #MMIP). Riders are revitalizing cultural identity, languages and lifeways in #Indigenous communities."

When one mouse has a dead grip and the other has a dead dpi sensor...

Fiddle around with a screwdriver for a few minutes and you end up with one working mouse with a proper grip !

By the way, I can't decently advise to purchase Cyborg R.A.T mice I've only had bad experiences with them though I liked their looks. Logitech is my go-to brand for mice.
