Oh absolutely, taken in a greater context which I totally neglected to say that’s absolutely true.

Big dihydrogen monoxide. Private dihydrogen monoxide companies made approx. $303 billion globally in 2022. This number doesn’t include governments selling this stuff too. No one tells you that on the low end this stuff kills 300,000 + people a year globally. Look-up in Google “HOH chemical”, and you’ll learn everything you need to know about dihydrogen monoxide.

Also freedom of speech is between your government and you. Your government can’t censor speech, private companies, individuals, organizations, ect, can censor your speech or censor themselves from hearing it. All rights are only between an individual and their government.

A good one is a half hour sit-com. Like The Simpsons, or Big Bang Theory. Whatever you prefer. Take a few minutes to slow your brain down, put on a sit-com or cartoon and try to relax. When the shows over, get back to it. I like this way because it times itself, I can’t just add five more minutes, the shows over.

So much this! You really need to understand something to explain it well to someone else. So on top of other techniques I would pretend I was teaching someone else. If I couldn’t explain something to someone else, I didn’t know it yet and had to put more time into that part. If I could explain it once then I’d do it again.

I don’t know why everyone is acting surprised, it’s been this way for a while now. Pre-ordering any game is just paying early so you can be a dev-tester. I can’t think of a major release in video games that hasn’t been a buggy mess on release. I was fool with No Man’s Sky, and I won’t be fooled again. My plan is to just wait a few months until the second patch, same thing I do for all new releases and they’re usually discounted a bit by then too.

Often the conversation here feels like the commenter hasn’t used Windows since XP. I use Windows and Linux daily and I think most commenters are wrong with their trash talk of Windows but right with their prop talk of Linux.

If you install a better os, everything is accurately and centrally managed, making maintenance much more easy.

This is so true, especially if you’re doing any development. Everything just builds from the package before it more or less. So you don’t end up with duplicates of the same code and end up with /programfileA/blah.whatever being different from /proframfileB/blah.whatever and fucking around for hours cause ‘the file is updated, and it’s pointed to the right file. Why does it say it’s not’. Until you figure out it wasn’t pointed to the right file/package and you kick yourself for missing such a stupid mistake. Ask me how I know lol

We do have an answer, we have several in fact. The problem is capital, regulations, and NYMBY. Breeder reactors can run on nuclear waste, but they’re incredibly expensive to build and could be easily modified to create weapons grade nuclear materials. So maybe not the best idea while we’re all still thinking about blowing each other up. We can bury it deep underground, look at Onkalo, Finland. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onkalo_spent_nuclear_fuel_repository

Many other locations have been suggested in many other countries, but the moment something is labeled high-nuclear-waste storage it’s impossible to get approved. In my opinion storing it deep underground is fine, it’s transporting it to that facility that worries me.

Point in your favor though, why put more money and effort into nuclear than is necessary when that same money can go to renewables? Nuclear power absolutely makes sense in select places and shouldn’t be ignored. It should grow a little but it’s already obsolete compared to alternatives.

Except, the truth is that this has happened twice in two years and those are only the mass shootings in which African Americans were explicitly targeted.

Dunno what world you live in, but if those events didn’t happen it sounds a lot nicer than reality.

Say it loud and say it proud, cooperations are no one’s friend!

So right. If they give up their lethal weapons how else can they be the most dominant person in the room?

If I could change one big thing, I’d make it such that each worker is aware of how much they personally have put into the economy via their labor and wage. Someone who works for someone else never really knows the true value of their work, just the wage that’s paid to them. If we all knew the true value of our labor we’d riot.

They should, violence absolutely works. It’s just that no one knows what it’ll cost until it’s all over, and there’s no way to know until it’s done. Using violence is going all in, and only a fool thinks they can never lose.

Not counting corporate landlords, cause that’s a whole other can of worms, 50% of landlords are below average landlords, and 50% of tenants are below average tenants. So 75% of leases have one below average party, antidotaly anyway. (Obviously this isn’t real math)

So I would dangle a sharp blade out the window to slice the neck of the guy on the other track as we smush our five main guys.

Everything uses FAT32. ATMs, the fare machine on transit systems, the sorting system at your post office, traffic lights, nuclear power control systems. Literally everything that isn’t a Unix, MacOS, or a Windows machine uses FAT32. All that stuff has worked for decades and will probably keep working for decades more.

I can’t think of it off the top of my head but I’m certain something like The Simpsons or Family Guy used it as a joke where they did get run over. I don’t think it’s claimed anywhere but it did become part of the story for some people. I can easily see how someone who doesn’t quite understand the situation, but is also sceptical to truth would think that.

Take someone who assumes he was run over, tell them ‘well actually he wasn’t, the perspective of the picture makes it look like he’s about to be.’ and some of those people will jump to the conclusion it was fake. Especially in the past 40 (?) Years where a lot of people get their history from TV.

Fuk yeah brother! God Bless the Double Large Coke freedom unit! /S

Don’t forget Rule 211 “Employees are the rungs on the ladder of success. Don’t be afraid to step on them.” (Gint, 7500 B.C.E.). It’s kinda funny that the Farengi were supposed to be an exaggerated example of laissez fair capitalism on TNG, but the writers of DS9 turned the rules of acquisition into something that’s more applicable in our world than Star Trek.
