Couldn’t we just have an orbiting refueling station though? Seems to me like it would be even more efficient.
- Comment on ‘Half my day’s pay goes to filling up my car now’: diesel crisis ripples across Britain 5 days ago:
The 70’s oil crisis was the start of Europe demanding better fuel efficiency of their cars, and better heat efficiency in their homes. This crisis will likely make people switch to electric cars, the ones who can’t afford to, will need to use public transportation. It could also very well result in less long distance transportation of goods, since they’ll become more expensive.
I’m not psychic, so I don’t know everything that will happen, but it’s not far fetched that oil prices are getting so high, oil fueled power plants will become too expensive to run…

I know it sucks for a lot of people, but just like the oil crisis in the '70s, this will be positive in the long run.

But instead of a gun, he’s holding a bag of money. It must be really hard for a grammy award winning musician who is only worth hundreds of millions of dollars, who just wants to sell his music to everyone, including genocidal pieces of shit.
This is about er rich person, trying to play both sides, in a game of genocide. He doesn’t deserve your sympathy. He cries on stage, because he wasn’t succesful, not because he’s sorry.

So you only get 4 ants with your dessert? What a fucking ripoff
- Comment on A close call 1 week ago:
I can follow the idea of owning a piece of land, where other people can’t just be. Somewhere where people can’t just take things from, or alter by cutting down a tree f.eks.
But owning land in order to keep people away from it, with the only purpose being to make people pay to view the piece of land is crossing the line.
I don’t know where the line exactly is, but it’s somewhere between having a place you live or a place where you use the land for a direct benefitial purpose for the community, however large or small, and keeping people away from a piece of land with the purpose of manufacturing scarcity in order to get paid to allow people on said land, without an actual beneficial purpose for the community.
The community would have a lot more benefit from the crater, if the person didn’t keep people away from it for no other reason than greed. The same can’t (at least not always) be said about a farm, or your livingroom.

I find it incredibly weird that was as people, respect it when someone says “That crater created by tons of falling space stuff many millions of years ago, is mine! No one can look at it, unless you pay me!”. I mean, wtf? How does that make sense? What asswipe sold that crater at some point in history?
- Comment on Diablo V Teaser 1 week ago:
I’m not a fan of the Path of Exiles skill tree, but I was so incredibly bored with Diablo 3s skills. There was literally no choices, just switch whenever you want something else. I don’t think the skill trees from diablo 2 were too complicated to expect an RPG player to manage.
To me the skill tree in Diablo 3 was saying “our player base is too dumb to make a single character choice, so we’ll just get rid of all choices except ‘number go up’ when looking at new gear”. It was absolutely a dumbing down.

I have an idea. We take the richest person in the world, and gradually shoot them with faster and faster baseballs until we have an answer. If, by unlucky circumstances, the person should perish, we take the next richest person.

Reminds me of a rooster we had when I was a kid. My grandfather was watching us one evening while my parents were out. He’d told them that when feeding the chickens, if the asshole rooster was to jump him, he’d kill it kinda jokingly.
When they came home that night, the rooster was plucked clean in the sink.

I was considering it like 10 years ago when you couldn’t go anywhere on the internet without someone telling you “Programmers make a bajillion dollars pr day, even the bad ones! You should become a programmer!!!”, but I figured it was just companies wanting more applicants to force down the pay.

No one has said it’s free. I however have said that running it through taxes with no private doctors or insurance makes it a hell of a lot cheaper, because you cut out a lot of greedy business people whose whole purpose in life is to deny you care.

Your taxes. In no other country does the procedure actually cost 20k. It’s been inflated to ridiculous amounts by the doctors because the insurance pays it.

I’m still not seeing why the extra step of a for profit insurance company is ever needed? All it does is raise prices and make life harder for the people in need. Get rid of it, and your money is spent much more directly without someone denying you medical care because they see you as an expense.
It’s also important to note that my doctor doesn’t charge my government for anything. They employed directly by the government, which means the government is determining what the cost of a procedure is, instead of the doctor. This lowers the price because you cut out another for profit middleman.
This also means my government has that same person with medical knowledge to determine wether or not a procedure is actually necrssary that you’re requesting. The same doctor you visited.
Medical insurance companies and privately owned medical care is ALL just unecessary middlemen that make your life worse. They’re not needed, and needs to be removed entirely.

Does there need to be a system? USA is the only rich country that seems to think so… My doctor doesn’t charge me, they charge the government. Hell, even parking is free.

Why would you want a system that introduces middle men and a need to turn a profit off of your health?

I’m tempted to just straight up use AI without proofreading next time I’m in need of a job. If anything, just to see wether or not it works. Judging by a quick 2 minute look at Linkedin, it must be what they want.

The way it works in Denmark is your boss can demand a doctor’s note from your doctor. They can do this no matter the circumstances, but they’re required to pay for it. I’ve never been asked to get a doctor’s note, but I have also never been untrustworthy enough for a boss to not believe when I say I’m sick.

First off, the safety rules are because people die without them. They’re there for your protection. The price of them is your boss’ problem, not yours, stop worrying on his behalf, you aren’t getting paid to do his job.
Second: You need to be angry at the boss’ instead of the workers. Why do you think they go on break at the exact time? Because if they spend 10 minutes helping you, that’s 10 minutes they can’t eat their lunch, and if they postpone their break 10 minutes, they’ll be written up or fired for not working. The problem is their boss, you’re angry at the abused instead of the abuser.
