What the actual fuck is this?

Corporate Hunger games?

The thing is, getting this kind of exception doesn't happen even when 5 million people sign a petition. The government is ruthless. Usually.

Yet here we are, a 79-year old got it. Usually you need the situation on national news before the relevant authorities would even begin to consider granting such an exemption. So the users of the program are never anonymous. They need to be exposed to the media in order to get it.

Yet here we are, a "random" 79 year old got it, and that's all we know about them. So thinking the "random" person coincidentally the same age as Trump isn't most likely to in fact be Trump is definitely not a stretch.

Surely a random 79 year-old from from North Korea is equally as likely to be the recipient of this as arguably the most powerful man alive, and unarguably in the country where it's happening.

the total wackjob who thinks you need a midnight or 5 am meeting to watch a 10 minute video recording

I'm usually all for rehabilitation, but this behaviour deserves Gitmo-level torture.

AFAIK "congressman" isn't a protected class. And he'd most likely like to get rid of the others.

Why am I not surprised such a creature was found in Australia of all places?

Yup. Government has businesses by the balls.

But corruption exists.

Therefore the goverment only ever really pulls small businesses and normal people by the balls, while the big businesses and uber rich (money heavyweights) get to pull the government by the tongue. Sometimes even the balls as well.

Just as Supply Side Jesus intended.

You're probably thinking (rightly) of this type of tractor. However, the cabin unit of a truck is also called a tractor.

Searcing for the Jiefang J6p yields results of the latter type.

I can remember my own coversations myself, thanks.

And what I feel I might both need and forget I'll write down Either on the phone or using pen and paper.

This gives me hope for America.

Don't forget the terrorist Doctors without borders!

And the terrorist Nobel prize comitee that dared honour them!

We don't have that tradition so I get chills at the month of hyperactivity and bad teeth I can imagine. Especially if that cone is 100% candy.

It's sad that this is the case, but the european zionist politicians (especially german ones) might just get on board with easing sufferring just a bit if this is the selling point.

And while that's far from an ideal solution, a win's a win, no matter how small.

Come on.

Offline-only is privacy-respecting. Accessibility is a noble goal.

All in all, if there's an AI usecase that's as morally acceptable as it gets, it's this one.

I get that it's Ubuntu of all people, but even Big Tech produces some ideas every now and then that FOSS lovers can get behind and democratize!

No one thinks that.

What Trump wants is America to not be the worst place in the world healthcare-wise.

And the only alternative to fixing the American system is fucking up the rest. And fucking up your neighbor is usually easier than working on yourself.

So that's what Trump wabts to do.

Sidenote: all 4 include plastic.

I was about to say "You bet he is", but your words nailed the point I was trying to say more than anything I could come up with myself.

Israel lost the right to exist ages ago.

for up to a minute

I'm not too well versed in animal physiology, but for humans it's closer to 3-4 minutes. And panicking doesn't influence the speed or terror much.

Drowning in water and suffocating with CO2 are the worst feelings of dread in existance. Animal or human, period.

And panicking won't speed it up, nor will doing medidation slow it down much since the body literally fights for its life and the adrenalin makes you very much awake and hyperalert during pretty much the entire process.

I think, it was by using nitrogen

You think right.

When panicking for lack of oxygen, the nervous system (mamallian and human alike) doesn't actually look for the lack of oxygen for some reason, but for the overabundance of certain "common displacers". Such as water and CO2. And that's pretty much the exhaustive list.

Nitrogen doesn't cause a panic response. Neither does CO (carbon monoxide).

You don't feel anything if you're suffocating in nitrogen or are poisoned by CO for a few minutes. Then you might feel a bit drowsy for some 10 seconds right before you lose consciousness.

Then you don't feel anything again. A few more minutes, and you're gone without even knowing.

We've carefully decided that €1000 in each of our pockets today beats the millions saved each year by the virtue of consumers having consumer rights.
