That’s a nice pipedream, but why would airlines move to this system? They seem perfectly happy with the current system where you have to pay to change anything.

And the game thing doesn’t make sense. If the game shuts down, where are you going to use your NFT? There’s a few crappy crypto games that have tried making it so items are transferable, but for larger games it sounds like a nightmare to implement.

NFTs are like crypto, a solution in search of a problem. I’ll be honest, I’m anti-crypto and NFTs, but if a valid usecase presented itself I’d be happy to be wrong. I just haven’t seen it yet.

This sort of thing has always happened.

I do find it particularly infuriating when it’s a topic I’m knowledgeable in/involves my profession. But then I remember most people are stupid and it doesn’t bother me too much.

Fuck off pedo scum. You and your kind destroy the lives of children, mine included. You have the gall to throw stones here when you support the abuse of children? I hope you get what’s coming to you.

Ugh, yeh I hate judgemental pharmacists. I take a couple of controlled substances, but I’ve found a pharmacy nearby where they are super nice and happy to have my business. Now my whole family goes there for all our pharmacy needs, even if the shitty chain discount place might be a little cheaper.

People say negative things about that? That’s crazy, people are judgmental about stupid shit.

Ah yes, once someone dies we are no longer allowed to listen to their music do you’ll be safe now.

Lol I would bet the majority of that crap is from just normal people.

The article isn’t about what you think.

The article says it was shutdown in June 2020, a few months after it started. Is that inaccurate?

Such a dumb question.

Building a nuclear power plant requires the collaboration of physicists, nuclear + electrical + civil engineers, etc…

Solar requires a certified electrician.

We know how to build nuclear safely, it just requires a lot more effort and oversight, therefore is not something you can build at home.

Manhattan?

Thank you for your riveting analysis. CNN will be calling soon to get you on I’m sure.

He failed to act on the AIDS epidemic until it was too late.

If I install solar panels and the inverters incorrectly I could potentially harm or kill myself and others. Therefore solar isn’t safe.

There is a middle ground. The FDA shouldn’t have the power to ban a product from the market. They should be able to publish their recommendations, however, and people who trust them can choose to follow those recommendations. Others should be free to publish their own recommendations, and some people will choose to follow those instead.

That’s putting too much responsibility on the average person, who doesn’t have the time to become educated enough in biology and pharmacology to understand what every potentially harmful product may do to them. What if they never even hear the FDA recommendation?

Also, though you’d like to think this would only harm the individual in question who purchases a harmful product, there are many ways innocent third parties could be harmed through this. Teratogens are just one example.

This kind of laissez-faire attitude just doesn’t work in the real world. There’s a reason we ban overtly harmful substances.

As a CSA survivor, who had images taken of me while I was abused… Fuck you.

People wanting to possess it is exactly what encourages people to produce the material. If you let people possess it with no consequences you will let the demand shoot up and basic economics should tell you what happens next with the supply part.

That is disgusting. Seriously. You should feel ashamed of yourself.

I don’t know about launching in new countries, but a lot of the new subscribers were added in countries where Netflix is cheaper so while they did add a lot of subscribers the revenue increase wasn’t large.

Yes, but you might be more likely to be targeted by thieves who don’t know the difference.

Car thefts are up here anyway, but a lot of it is break and enters where they just get into your house to grab the keys.

There is a diagnostic USB port in the steering column of the car, they are plugging a cable into that then the car just starts without the key.

Immobilizers are required here in Australia so it’s not that, I think it just inspired a bunch of kids to go steal cars in other ways.

Yeh I feel you, I used to be the same way actually. Gradually over time my habits changed and now I look forward to the Discovery playlist each week. But I totally get where you’re coming from, I used to just listen to the same artist over and over ha ha.
