The problem is that Youtube has over a decade of backlog. Even if a competitor comes up, if you need to fix something or watch a tutorial you're coming back to youtube until things even out.

@errvega2705 okay but accessing blocked content is 25% of the VPN ads, 75% is evade espionage/tracking/hackers.

Mialisus people don't get caught with machineguns through surveillance unless they're selling, you know how common 3d printed "wall hangers" are nowadays? Most likely people get caught trying to shoot them in public land within earshot of someone who'll call the cops.

@mirmarq429 "Why bother trying to hide?" - That was exactly what was said back when the first privacy-breaching technology was introduced. And the second one. And the third one. Now, we're probably down to a hundred, or even a thousand, I can't even imagine how to count - and we should have by now realized we should have stopped asking this question because it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. We shouldn't be living in a world where it's pointless to hide precisely because we asked "why bother hiding" too many times. It's not me who has to justify why I want privacy. It should be the governments and corporations justifying why I need to hand it over.

That's not irony it's simply the adsense working.

Almost all Russian companies do that. Escape from Tarkov is developed by Russians but "headquartered" in London. Gaijin Entertainment also has offices outside Russia and Atomic Heart was developed by Russians with a shell company in Cyprus.

The issues are: 1. All it takes is for the first hack or malfunction to result in a cop getting shot, and the magdumping on the perp will return as if the smart gun thing never happened. 2. The problem is that forcing bad solutions will lead to no solution being used at all (such as millions of dumb guns being treated as smart guns, actually reducing safety in total).

@randomdude4110 The anarchist cookbook is ass. A lot of the stuff is either wrong at a fundamental level or is plain dangerous to follow. The archives of oldschool chemistry forums are OSHA compliant in comparison.

@nikhat6884 It's not 2007 anymore. A lot of the groups associated with Anonymous were nabbed by the feds and are most likely working for them. Anonymous is now Q for Occupy-era millenials.

@johnmackenzie3871 Killing retreating troops is not a war crime. They're still combat effective and may try to re-attack. It's a war crime to kill surrendering troops. If you want to live, you have to surrender, if you want to fight again you retreat. But you have to conduct the retreat properly, or the enemy will exploit it. They didn't stood idle, the retreat was conducted properly and Ukraine was not in a good position to waste material and troops giving chase. All retreats are voluntary. And a retreat during combat (no armistice) is forced. You couldn't complete the objective and the combat has a poor cost-benefit ratio, so you turn back. You were forced. If you weren't, your gains would outpace the costs. You're the one coping. You're trying to twist yourself into a pretzel justifying a retreat as a sign of superiority instead of being the fat L that it was.

There's an infamous cybersecurity course in the US armed forces people have to go through.

@xXx_Regulus_xXx Luckily some times the cops recognize what they have. Some granny had a StG-44 brought back during WWII her late husband had in the attic, and it was registered into the ATF as a museum piece so that it didn't have to get destroyed. However in Brazil a 100 year old Luger was cut by plasma torch. It hurt to see the picture.

@STEVSGONE Building the website isn't the problem. Youtube handles terabytes of bandwidth and has seevers in multiple parts of the world to ensure it's usable. Alternative websites are noticeably slower because they simply can't pay for the infrastructure.

@johnmackenzie3871 The Highway of Death is a world renowned curbstomping of Biblical proportions, which is why you know the event by name. The failed Northern offensive was just that. A failed offensive. It's a major defeat that will be on history books, but won't get a name.

@Aggnog Buddy the gas company doesn't know what brand stove I have and what food I cook with their gas. They know who I am because that's sort of useful when bills have to be paid. But if I really wanted I could probably find a way to discconect the gas service to the house and just buy gas cannisters.

@MetalGearsOfThought Kernel level anti-cheat cannot beat cheats in the arms race. Since data can't be encrypted and decrypted in real time, you can intercept the memory data that reveals enemy positions externally and not have to run cheat software inside your computer.

 @motokaichou2010 Most gun safety issues are caused by the user himself, not the mechanics of the firearm.

The issue is, "real" money is just as arbitrary but you don't question it because you've been using and seeing others use it for 16, 20, 30 years. It's also somewhat more stable because there's central banks in charge but things can get pretty wild in times of crisis.

@RmFrZQ I'm a firm believer this isn't possible. Neither the adenovirus viral vector or mRNA will give full immunization and the traditional attenuated virus shots won't work on fast mutating coronaviridae. Even if it were possible, by the time you tested the product in trials and distributed to the medical personnel and the vulnerable first, by the time you get to the 50-60 age group you're already dealing with new strains. For pete's sake we're still using a 2019 strain shot and it's almost 2022.

@bodd boward "there's no way to win against global forces" - Global forces that hinge on a minimum wage worker using a phone to scan a QR code and a GP to deny people treatment if they don't have a certificate. I'm sorry, but these global forces seem pretty weak. We would win if everyone just said no.

@Invizive It's a metaphor, don't read that deep into it. You either live as a rat or your last moments will get caught on camera taking a bullet in the neck like that woman this 6th. If you want dignity, go out like a Sky King. Because there's none to be had any other way.

@TheGrejp Not only are roads here in Europe just as ass as in the US, we had high taxes before the CO2 fad, and we already pay normal taxes to pay for green incentives. Also, those green incentives are all a goddamn scam. Most highways are also paid by tolls. We are not getting a proportional return on our gas taxes.

@Grishanof This. Same stuff happened with ammo in 2020. Govt contracts, big box stores contracts, whatever trickles down can go to small retailers which is almost nothing, zero components left to sell to reloaders.

@RmFrZQ If you check the UK Health Security Agency weekly report, for example I'm using week 42, in page 20 it shows a graph showing antibodies over time. Most of the population got S antibodies from infection and and vaccination. But the proportion of people getting N antibodies has stalled. This means that people who were infected after "immunization" (lol) mounted an immune response based on spike protein antibodies alone. The immune system was primed to respond to the spike proteins and now doesn't respond to the nucleoprotein. There's no other explanation. The rising prevalence of N antibodies is probably coming from the unvaccinated and the "true" vaccine failures where the person didn't mount an immune response to the shot, but most of the population now has an incomplete immune response even if they get exposed to the real thing after the shot. The spike protein is also a mutable part of the virus so it's always a gamble if old spikes prime the body for new variants. A good article is "Could live attenuated vaccines better control COVID-19?" by Shinya Okamura and Hirotaka Ebina, PMCID: PMC8354792/PMID: 34426024 Notice how the live attenuated shot is praised for the potential for broad immune response, but in trials in Syrian hamsters they had less virus in the lungs but the same amount in the nasal cavity. This means the immune system can prevent illness, but doesn't defeat the virus in the nose. People can stop being sick, but they'll keep hosting and spreading. And what happens when this creates a variant that evades our immunity?

The average person can go online and buy a screwdriver, orbital sander, drill press, CNC router, etc. We don't care if you work in machinery or not. What does being a hunter or in the military even mean? That's hardly quantifiable. You can't be judge, jury and executioner. That's illegal. By your logic you can just grab your kitchen knife, slide it down the plants pocket and go around being judge, jury and executioner. You'll just have to run faster. You're attributing some kind of mystical power to the firearm as if you can't do the exact same with other weapons or bare handed. You can go be judge, jury and executioner with your fists and feet. Either way, you'll be stopped eventually and pay for the crimes you committed. So this concern is unrelated to firearms.

The engineering class should teach someone that wasting valuable stock, machine time, tool wear and skilled labor on such ventures is a loss. An Ender 3 is under 200 bucks, the material is like 20 bucks per kilo, and the only waste is on supports while subtractive manufacturing process turn perfectly good stock into chips you have to sell for scrap prices. You can pay a child in candy to watch it and turn off the power if it catches fire, or set up a webcam to monitor the printer remotely. The engineer doesn't try to overcomplicate. The engineer wants to see how many corners he can cut and still get away with it.

First of all, through the power of God anything's possible so jot that down. Jokes aside, all you really need for a single shot is a barrel and a breechface to prevent everything from asploding in your hand. You can get high-pressure rated hydraulic tubing off your favorite chinesium supplier, and through 3d printed mandrels use ECM to erode rifling and chamber into a steel tube. A breechface can be made by cutting squares of sheet steel with a hand saw or rotary tool. Dremel goes BRRRRRRR.

@Van-Leo "while not being able to acquire an army tank" - But you can get those. "but my comparison was more to the higher grade arms" - I can't crack open your head and know what you mean by this. Explain to me what these "grades" are. "there’s very little use to unload a full AR magazine into someone who broke in, it’s barely self defense at that point." - What are your qualifications to determine this? You can get semi-auto shotguns in the UK. You think dumping three rounds of buckshot isn't going to turn someone into hamburger? Unloading half a magazine from a Glock isn't going to mess someone up? How is the AR different? "the general public shouldn’t be the target audience" - Why? Then why have them around? "gun show markets that are barely doing any background checks" - This is a narrative you were sold. Vendors at gun shows are legally an extension of the FFL store, and by FEDERAL LAW they need to conduct background checks on every sale or they lose their federal license. People often used gun shows to conduct private sales, aka used gun sales. There wasn't internet back in the day. If you're against private sales, just say it. Don't go and say "gun show" because that's not what you're describing. "if you wanted to drive an 18 wheeler you’d need 200 hours of training experience" - Yeah. And if you had a loaded cannon pointing at everyone in public while a throttle pedal governed how close the lit match was to the fuse, you should probably have more than 200 hours of training. "I don’t understand why the same can’t be applied to guns, public and private and certified markets depending on job and practiced skill level." - Driving a vehicle is like shooting a gun. You don't need a license to own a vehicle. If you're in public with the gun out and blasting rounds at chest level, you should probably have a license to make sure you don't hit anyone. If it's inside your holster and you get penalized if you whip it out? Not my problem. It's like you had an unregistered car in your backyard and one day you decided to fuel it up and drive without a license. It wasn't our problem until you decided to make it a problem.
2
@Van-Leo "how much of a gun does the average American need just to protect their home" - What do you think is "too much"? You want an arbitrary line, but for whatever reason it always errs on the side of taking away guns. "A pistol should be enough for the general public" - There's like 11,000 homicides committed with handguns every year in the US. Only 300-400 rifle homicides. Rifles of all types. "getting an ar 15 is unnecessary and could put any inexperienced users at risk as well" - Actually, handguns put inexperienced people at greater risk. Smaller, less points of contact. "they have more laws to protect the public than a tool designed for taking lives" - Not really. You can be a total jerk with a car for your entire life and only get slaps on the wrist. You mess up once with a gun and you're looking at trouble.
2
@Van-Leo No, it's not about sample size considering that back when the number of firearms in the US was around 300 million - probably a decade ago at this point - the weapons were estimated to be one third rifles, one third handguns and one third shotguns. Rifles are also easier to acquire than handguns as many states have extra restrictions on handguns, they require the buyer to be aged 21 instead of 18, and they cannot be bought across states. Handguns are simply easier to conceal, which makes them more suitable for crime. In the UK they have a near-total ban on handguns with very few exceptions, but rifles are legal. Across the world handguns are seen as a greater threat than rifles and regulated accordingly. Licensing is just a backdoor way to take guns away. There's millions of gun owners without licenses. If you introduce a licensing standard, you have millions of illegal gun owners until they acquire the license. What happens when an anti-gun government is elected and makes the licensing scheme too hard or too expensive to pass? Or delays renewals so that owners technically allow their license to lapse?

@hanelyp1 The game needs to do the hit detection client side so that the server can look at the data. The game is not truly synchronized but it's easier to pretend it is by having each client send their game data and the server goes "back in time" to see who's right. The main disadvantage is that you can get killed right after you get behind a wall because the opponent shot you while you were out in the open and the server says you died 150ms earlier so you weren't behind cover at the time. Doing the hit detection server side would feel worse as instead you'd be shooting at people and feeling like you defeated them but the server makes the call and says you didn't.

The Mulford Act predated the Cincinnati Revolt by about 10 years. The NRA in 1967 was not the NRA you think of these days. This isn't an endorsement of the NRA, just stating that the organization was changed from the inside. Fun fact, the NRA then changed their internal rules so that a new revolt couldn't happen. Michael Moore actually planned to try and use activists to change the NRA from the inside but he realized he couldn't be done due to the convoluted way that people are nominated for the board.

@bololollek9245 lol a ton of Americans would have a bad time in the rest of the anglosphere

We're on the breaking point of practicality, though. Well designed pistol frames pumped out by a decently tuned printer can easily reach 600-1000 rounds before having problems, and at a 3-4 dollar material cost per frame they're essentially infinitely replaceable compared to the ammo it costs to wear one out. And this is with PLA+, which is essentially the "entry level" filament.
2
Yes, the person who grew up with the same cartoons, tv shows, music, movies and went through a similar schooling is totally growing up in a different culture. Like, you're just two steps removed from saying blacks all come from the ghetto, hispanics get whipped with their mother's flip flops, etc. and this gives them the edge over sheltered whites. For fuck's sake.

That's Russian camo. Also in the field anything goes. The front has glorified holes, guys in the rear have actual trench systems, and those behind them sleep in buildings. Schools, abandoned apartment buildings, etc.

As abhorrent child labor looks, your ancestors did it. Unless you're advocating for adopting all those children and bringing them over here to give them a privileged childhood, or somehow giving money to a charity you hope is gonna help them kids and not just pay themselves massive salaries while they sell the kids to the Cl*nton Foundation, not paying those kids only means that they'll have to do something else. Like farming, processing discarded electronics by hand or dynamite fishing. To you it's job, to them it's survival. They're not being enslaved by Starbucks but nature itself, we're all enslaved to it but in the developed world we have built ourselves a bubble.
2
Yeah what's so bad about slave labor camps in a country famous for its authoritarianism? It's totally the same thing as paying someone who dabs a little hot glue and tightens a few screws 10 dollars an hour.

Even the parliamentary office for science and technology in the UK looked into mental health evaluations for gun licenses and they concluded it was useless. - Many mental health issues don't correlate with crime. - If the person being evaluated does not have a criminal record that offers evidence for their patterns of behavior, the entire evaluation is based on the interviewee being honest and not hiding anything. - After passing tests, people would go online and publish their experiences to help others pass the test. - The UK doesn't have enough psychiatrists and money to pay for all these interviews. If the UK said this was not affordable with like 4 million gun owners, imagine the US. Some guy from the Netherlands posted on a bunch of subreddits related to guns how awful his experience was in the interview portion of getting a license. It's not about safety. It's not about mental health. It was just humiliation. Also you give the government an easy avenue to ban guns without legislation. Just make everyone fail the test.

@keshudana4647 The problem is that making a good car isn't about a good car, but the ability to make 100,000 decent ones. Given a budget, the manpower and tools, making one car is a cool project but not a true test of manufacturing. They'd have a better future making replacement parts for existing vehicles in Afghanistan.

If you committed tax evasion you're not innocent (in the eyes of the law) so it doesn't matter where the money came from. Comments worded like that make it seem you're gonna take the fall for real crimes. The government is perfectly happy to just nail you for tax evasion even if you're a crime boss who had thousands whacked.

Not really. This happened years ago but even one of the former directors for a gun control organization has admitted that their proposals wouldn't have stopped shootings. Most gun regulations are absolute nonsense that exist just to screw with people, and do zero to solve the problem. Look up the insanity of NFA laws and tell me that prevents crime.

The trigger safety isn't a safety by the way, it's a "drop safety". It prevents a dropped gun from having the trigger pull on itself through inertia.

@darkyassin At the risk of wasting my time just because you could be trolling, you should "mind" paying taxes into BS feel good programs. This really isn't about getting rid of guns, it's mostly just presenting a way out for guns that could potentially be uncared for and unsecured and thus get involved in accidents or get stolen. However politicians divert funding for this by convincing people like you that they're "taking guns off the street". They're lying to your face and making themselves look good for votes.

@abstractapproach634 There's other avenues to critique such as the timing, which matters more than the method. He was about to be extradited, which means McAfee had to consider that he might be placed on suicide watch in a US prison so he had to do it in Spain. And about the US being transparently dictatorial. I really don't have the brain power to explain it, but the US changing the head of state and the head of state not having concentrated power might make it technically not a dictatorship, the end result in kind of the same. There's an oligarchy within the oligarchy and they tend to get rid of people who become too much of a problem, and they can do it in obvious fashion while declaring it a suicide, and then the coroner dies. There's literally backdoors on hardware and software, they exploit mentally ill people by encouraging them to commit terrorist acts and then arresting them to "save" the day (and one wonders if they ever encouraged a real attack and then wiped away the evidence that they were the ones behind it) to justify their budgets and said backdoors, there's a constant barrage of misinformation and irrelevant information designed to keep people apathetic. There might not be a Putin, but the powers that be do whatever they want in the open and there's no consequences. The president's son can get caught trading women like they were Magic The Gathering cards but the real story is that he called Asian women "yellow".

@ViIgax I don't want to split hairs but there's a difference between a company being so afraid of the mob they'd rather throw you under the bus than face the crowd and tell them to grow up, and the police taking you to a room where you're handcuffed to a table and forced to apologize and admit everything you said was a mistake. The first is a consequence of hyper-connectivity and over-socialization that we need to address as social illnesses, the second is the CCP flexing its muscle because it can.

Ukrainians in Russian occupied zones where the Russian soldiers had their phones confiscated sold them phones for a little extra income.

@tfwmemedumpster Pharma guy raised prices he was charging to insurance companies, but he provided the product for free for those that needed it. Also, there was no reason why others couldn't make it, literally. Anyone could make it. At the time another company promised to make a competitor, don't remember if they ever introduced it to the market. The only reason nobody else made Daraprim was because it was a low margin product nobody wanted to make. Shkreli wanted R&D money so his plan was fleecing the insurance companies. Obviously this increases premiums but insurance companies are already getting fleeced by thousands of high margin drugs so it was a drop in the bucket. If anyone had died untreated the media would have had a field day. I think Vice news investigated the claim that he was providing the drug for free, and they admitted it was true. You want to know what Vice complained about? That people had to fill out a form to get it, and filling out forms is hard. You can look for the article, that's literally what they said. They couldn't find a reason to call him a liar and a cheat so they decided to bitch about the forms. TL;DR: While the guy did technically commit investor fraud he isn't the scumbag the media said he was. The big pharma companies are so much worse but the Pfizer sponsored media dedicated hours of airtime to him. Isn't that suspicious?

@HairEEck First, the science - actual science, not TV science - did not justify such measures. They were pure coercion for the sake of getting people to comply. Second, even if it did, it still wouldn't be justifiable. I genuinely don't get how come people come here and argue for free software and no spying, etc and then advocate for the adoption of a rushed government platform, contact tracing software that was admittedly used for non-pandemic reasons and limiting access to public spaces.
1
@HairEEck If you're not for contact tracing or tracking apps, then why defend another form of control? At least those apps, which didn't work properly as we expected, had the good intention of seeking the infection as it spread to single out those who were likely to be infected. "Papers, please" is the equivalent of presumption of guilt in a legal system. First of all, I specifically mentioned outdoor seating. You know why? You're not likely to contaminate others in outdoors settings. In many countries outdoor seating were exempt from having to show papers. Second, taking the stuff only suppressed symptoms. You could still spread. By having a green pass that unlocked the key to the city, people actually had the freedom to contaminate others completely unchecked. Third, you are moving the goalposts. This changed from a society based on control and forcing people to participate in a shoddy database system that was rushed (and eventually cracked as shown by the Adolph Hitler health passes people successfully made as a joke) to you wanting a paper about lockdowns, which wasn't the topic. At least admit to being disingenuous.

Mialisus lolno. Norinco is banned from import after they got caught supplying weapons to gangs, so they're rare. Most AKs in the civilian market are Serbian/Yugoslavian, Russian before the sanctions, Romanian, Polish, Bulgarian, etc. Egyptian and East German are pretty sought after too.
1
Mialisus Zastavas have 1.5mm thick receivers instead of 1mm and a trunnion bulge like seen on RPKs. It was meant to make the gun more rigid so it could fire rifle grenades, if I remember correctly. Maybe enough time has passed that other countries can sell Norincos to the US, because a Type 56 was 1000-1100 in 2011 and that was expensive for an AK back then. That was like converted Saiga money. And yes, there were Russian sanctions in 2014 because of the Ukraine situation, which affected Saigas (Izhmash). In 2017 the treasury department added the Veprs (Molot) to the ban list.

It would require multiple cameras per cashier to make sure every serial is caught on tape. Even then it would totally come down to the cashier's technique when counting the bills, I "fan" the money from one hand to another which would obscure serials from a ceiling camera depending on the bill orientation.

@halbgefressen9768 No offense, that might work in Germoney, but not everywhere. I've had jobs where people put sick leave and vacations back to back, even though that's not allowed. I've missed college exams because I asked someone to come in early and cover the last 30 min of my shift, and that person came in 30 min late. The concept that people will work harder by just being given more leeway doesn't work where a strong work ethic is part of the culture.

Because they can. As procesing power and AI capabilities increase they say "huh, might as well keep tabs on everyone just in case one in a million people decides to become a jihadist". And then terror attacks happen anyway because terrorists are told to not keep their phones with them.

@H.G.Halberd "with less gun deaths violent deaths would go down too" - But the Honduras and El Salvador had miniscule gun ownership rates and obscene gun homicide rates. The argument that "less guns means less gun deaths" fails the simple logical test - by distilling gun ownership to the worst members of society, you've ensured that the most violent, hardened criminals are the only ones who have them. And worst of all, almost nobody can legally defend themselves. Now people say "oh but this is only valid on third world sh!tholes" but let's face it, a lot of gun violence in America happens in places that aren't that much different from Rio, Ciudad Juarez or Caracas.

@svampebob007 "I can't even imagine being so angry at the government that I'd be willing to go out in the street and fight for justice" - God I wish that were me. Look into the people who were forced to stay in quarantine hotels due to travel restrictions, and the government-hired security guards raped women and girls in the rooms. Look into the authorities in Australia that executed shelter dogs so that families wouldn't come pick them up. Sorry for forcing the pill down your throat. But we need angry people.

But they do.

The NRA sticker on the truck, 5.11 pants, Oakley sunglasses and tshirt design somewhat related to guns or the military is just lack of self-awareness.

@juanca2807 "No one will go against people buying 5 or 10 graphics cards sporadically" - If in the year 2021 and almost 2022 you still believe that laws will never be misused, at this point you either have your head in the sand or you're acting in bad faith. The PATRIOT Act was also supposed to only be used against terrorists, but as it turns out all communications in the US pass through NSA filters.

@EliteprosoldierMW3 Regarding the statement: "it is better to be overly careful than to be careless" - it can be argued that the response caused such widespread and profound results that more people may actually die as a result of the lockdowns and shutdowns than from the disease itself.

@jonesbbq307 "we can live without cryptos but we cannot live without banks" - If traditional banks are necessary to live, so is crypto for the reasons Space Meter mentioned. You can't make the argument that we can't live without banks, in a world where you can get your account shut down because "reasons". Getting your account closed is essentially "killing" you, then.

@jonesbbq307 Okay, still doesn't change the fact that a world where banks are necessary, crypto is too.

@robertpaulson8790 Gun crime in Australia was decreasing from the 1970s. Comparing to the US is also a very flawed metric. You can't prove a cancer drug works by administering it to people who don't have cancer. You have to give it to a cancer patient and monitor the results. And as it stands, several countries with violent gun crime did not have their problems solved by gun control. It's akin to a drug trial where some people get better, others die. You have to establish the correlation. Not give a drug to a guy in your trials, and then point to a random guy in the street and say he has cancer, so the drug works. On the other hand, New Zealand seemed to be roughly similar to Australia in mass shootings, despite no kneejerk gun control laws until after Christchurch.

@Mike Mo Those ships carry products, if there's no canals blocked and there's no issues with labor at the ports or the way containers are handled. You criticize crypto for existing in computers and internet, but you are dependent on global trade which is no better. You trust the products to keep moving back and forth no matter what. The day there's no computers running 24/7, you won't be getting products from around the world either. No matter how much you want them.

@Mike Mo Stop upvoting yourself. A mockery of scarcity? You mean like fiat currency? Real products? What is real about them? Most of it is trash and will end up in a landfill in a few years. The materials are dug from Earth and we put them back or worse, throw them into the ocean. Nothing was real. Digging a hole and filling it back up does not net you a real currency. It's as real as Runescape gold.

@Theactualstoic You people come here and ask me for a full throated defense of BTC when I'm not the guy. I'm not. You're all punching air. All I pointed out is that you people come here and your argument is that your funny money is worth more than someone else's funny money. I just pointed out the lunacy of trying to pretend that BTC having no value after a collapse (no computers/internet) means anything when most people have money as a digital number in a database that's also based on computers and interconnectivity.
1
@Mike Mo Gold is not a thing of value unless it can pay for your meals. If it a thing of value, it should be able to promise any meal you could afford. In a convoluted sense you can indirectly pay for a meal with gold by exchanging it first. But if there's no place to exchange gold, and all the restaurants tell you they only accept a certain currency, you can have all the gold you want and still not be able to pay for a meal. So how is gold a thing of value when in a vacuum, you can't get anything for it? You misunderstand value as an intrinsic property, but it's clearly entirely subjective no matter which way you slice it. Obviously in real life you'd find a manager who'd willingly take a piece of gold for the meal, but only because he can later exchange it.

@F343x2 No, it doesn't. Airbags either work or they don't. If they fail to work... too bad. But airbags do not have a failure mode where they actually prevent you from evading a potential crash. In this case, we're arguing about a safety mechanism that has the potential to make a gun stop working when you need it, when you're arguing for prevention of accidents that would happen after the user already disabled the safety.

@abstractapproach634 I'm sorry but of all the reasoning you could come up with that is the weakest one. You have to simultaneously believe that they don't make mistakes but also get caught slacking. Not to mention that there's perfectly valid reasons to kill people in ways that are obviously going to be tracked back to you. Why would Putin get people killed in ways that scream Russia did it? Either way, the Epstein case was widely publicized and there was a generalized consensus that he would be suicided. In fact, many people were surprised not that he was killed, but that he was killed in the way everyone predicted. This isn't slacking. It would have required the biggest morons on the planet to plan that killing, unless they have absolutely no care in the world or in fact want you to know they killed a guy and there's nothing you can do about it.

@xijinpingpong4426 you can't "regulate" to keep things closed, all government funding hinges on tax revenue and a shut down economy means no taxes to collect. You think government regulation is fairy dust?

@xijinpingpong4426 Increase taxes on what? On a destroyed economy? Yeah, that'll work and definitely won't kill even more businesses. Increase debt? Can you pay it back? Give social support? What for? If you close the economy there won't be anything to buy. I'm not American. I just know how things work and understand that everyone sitting on their thumbs at home will wreck a country and there's no amount of government that can change how reality works.
