I was thinking about this earlier today for myself. Not specifically about computers, but the same principle. If I have something that bugs me and wastes 10 seconds of my time every single day but I could permanently fix the problem in an hour - logically it's worth fixing. Even if it eventually saves time, I have to invest an hour of time and brainpower right now. If it's something I don't really care about, it's just not worth it. I don't need that hassle, I'll just have a small annoyance every day instead of a big annoyance today. I've got better things to do. Like browsing Lemmy apparently

Is it the same specific five people for every child in the world? They must be super busy :/

Actually yes (in my opinion).

There's two options. People have a choice in what they do and can change how they behave - in which case we, as a society, should help them to change and be their best selves. This process would take place somewhere where they could no longer harm anyone, a "locked rehabilitation centre" or whatever. Basically prison but without the hangups on what many prisons are like right now.

Option two, people don't have a choice in what they do and can't change - in which case, how can we blame them? Keep them out of harm's way and let them live the best life they can without being a danger to anyone.

So, theoretically, anybody is eligible for redemption in my mind. Either because they can change and grow, or because they have literally no choice in their antisocial behaviour. In reality, the sort of people we're talking about? I don't know what they would have to do to prove to me that they have actually changed and want to atone for what they've done. Is it even possible to make up for the crimes of politicians and billionaires who will do anything to keep their money and power? Still, I don't think that killing anyone is the correct answer in my ideal world

If I stop buying from Nestlé then the slaves wouldn't have a job any more. Duh.

Just kidding, fuck Nestlé. I've been boycotting for a couple of years although I do miss some of their cereals..

I thought I read that Max Verstappen could never be beaten as the youngest race winner because the age requirement for F1 was increased - But now Kimi Antonelli is here. Am I remembering something wrong?

Fun fact: carrots were invented before glasses, so the first person to eat a carrot would not have been wearing glasses

If you can provide six months of housing, food and support then a person could start earning for themselves. You don't have to provide a lifetime of help for $40,000

"names may have been changed to protect people's privacy"

There's one person on Mars in that film but in reality there's zero people on Mars. That's a really small margin of error

You're getting the hang of it - there are no morally good billionaires!

It's not possible - you can check out but you can never leave

I don't know Max Verstappen personally, but I do know that most rich people still want more money

There's actually one woman in the prequals but she only exists as a sexy forbidden wife of the main character, Mr. Macho Skywalker, and she dies as soon as he breaks up with her so it's all good.

Oligarchs hate this one weird trick

Haha thanks

I can buy a new toaster from the shop, why can't I buy a woman too? Does this mean Gamers are pro sex-work? Or pro indentured servitude for women more likely..

Driving a car becomes a lot more difficult. Also, all cars would be mid- or rear-engined so that you could put a windscreen far lower to the floor and still see from your shitty chair.

More laptops or standing desks for computers.

Isn't that the one about a nice spiral shape?

The government has even erased Logsday from my memory! Will they stop at nothing?!

Go for it. The problem with bestiality is informed consent, IMO. If you can hold a full conversation with an animal where it shows its understanding of the situation and consents and you won't damage each other, who cares what you do?
