presumably so that dipshit nerd psychiatrists can claim it's not a medicine for the same reason they complain about weed

it underscores the need for research not to be illegal, shut the hell up if you're going to be polite about it

I would like to say how cool your Google+ login is. It shows up in your post like a bright red beacon. I once even wrote a haiku-poem for Google+ login icons on Slashdot. Take it! It is yours!

I don't give a fuck what goes through the Strait. It rightfully belongs to Iran and there is nothing we actually need it for to run our economy. The only reason we have any type of interest in it is to defend the existence of the petrodollar, which is the stupidest mistake this species ever made.

Gambling needs to be for games and nothing else or there is far too much incentive to interfere with the events being gambled on. It is inherently dangerous to our ability to understand what is going on. It actually is bad for society in a way that should be absolutely banned.

Ban prediction markets, you craven morons.

anyone on slashdot should be enough of a nerd already to at least make a serious attempt to self-host everything, especially considering freedombox exists

only reason I'm not already using it is I didn't know about that when I had the headspace to start the project and I've had other shit going

I don't know what the fuck a cusco is I just know that we can't possibly have a legitimate strategic interest in the Strait of Hormuz because it's on the other side of the planet and the amount of oil we get through it when Iran isn't locking it down is a baby fart compared to what we *export.* Foreign oil dependence is entirely manufactured as a purpose-built mechanism to justify petrodollar enforcement.

Never forget that this prick thinks people need to come into the office because you need to train your replacement's replacement.

It was supposed to hit Mar-a-lago

Not really surprising they'd get suckered by a company known for making overpriced bullshit made of poorly glued together sheet metal.

I am thoroughly sick and tired of the consistency with which Alphabet subsidiaries engage in small, narrow experiments of things that anyone with a spine could tell them they shouldn't even want to do.

I don't know about that. People in person are polite. Try to get anything done that fixes any real problems and you'll eventually find out they're not nice.

I want to believe that, but it's really difficult. There are too many people still buried in partisan bullshit and capitalist realism if they even care at all. Capitalism is not just failing, it's effectively already failed. Unfortunately, it is currently most likely to be replaced with neofeudalism rather than any type of freedom.

it's not a these days thing, this is what capitalism does, it's why every new thing is blamed for things getting worse, the worst people in the world always get it first
