This. Being able to pee without necessarily setting down is great when you’re outside, or in a public toilet but I see absolutely no sense of doing that at home.

- Comment on Would voluntary euthanasia benefit society? 4 weeks ago:
I guess this question has to be looked at from multiple dimensions.
From a purely economical and short-term perspective, maybe yes. Every human not contributing to society at an at least average level, is consuming ressources and driving up the costs. No matter if it’s due to illness, disability, depression, age, weakness, missing intelligence etc.
From a social perspective, such a program would be a nightmare: First of all, everyone would be under pressure. If you’re not a constant top performer, you’d feel like a burden on society. And the bar to be a top performer would constantly rise as more and more people on the ‘lower end’ decide to end their lives.
Second, it’s impossible to quantify the value of a person holistically. People can provide no direct economic value and still be an important member of society. Like emotionally supporting others, being loved, providing jobs etc.
Furthermore - in a society where at some point the ‘weak’ are expected to ‘voluntarily’ end their lives, people would be constantly scared. No one would be willing to take any risks because getting injured, getting a depression etc. would be like an implicit death penalty.
I personally think that everyone should be allowed to end their lives if they really deeply want it. But this should never be expected, actively promoted or pushed for. And I think it should involve at least a consultation with a medical professional to avoid hasty decisions due to a temporary crisis.

I know it’s probably a bit exaggerated on purpose but also in European countries it’s definitely not zero. We are in a significantly better situation than the US, that’s fot sure. Our problems aren’t remotely comparable. But also here, it can happen that certain treatments aren’t covered, also here there are (few) people without health insurance and also here people can lose their job or never find a job in the first place due to illness related issues or disabilities.
As said, much better but also definitely not 0.

That’s a valid point indeed.

At least an integrated modem wouldn’t set my local network at risk. They might still collect sensible data with microphones, cameras and share usage profiles etc. But from my perspective that’s at least technically decoupled from other devices.

- Comment on Know Nut November 3 months ago:
These nuts are indeed not really popular but I found them in a regular supermarket in Germany a couple of years ago. As someone mentioned they’re typically almost impossible to crack, so each nut already had a small canal sawed into the side and the box came with a metal lever that exactly fits into said canal. With that preparation it was quite easy to open them.
You can also buy them online prepared that way. E.g. here: mypilinut.com/…/noix-de-pili-en-coque-seau-xxl-29… (I don’t know this shop, it was just the first result on Google, so no clue if it’s a fair price).

If it’s published under GPL which I think is the case, everyone is free to use it commercially and sell it. If someone is willing to pay for it, is a different story. ;)
