Mmm sounds culty.

Brother, is that you?!

“The leopards would never eat my face!” smh

So what I’m hearing is, we should all be very mad with the Americans?

I think there’s something similar in terms of initial patent rights, but it’s awful that people who need these meds are footing the bill. I realise now that I have been spoiled by the NHS. The idea of charging people for medical care that they need is unthinkable to me. It’s heartbreaking.

Wow, damn I had no idea. It’s criminal that they’re allowed to price gouge people like that!

I’d understand if it was some frivolous cosmetic thing made from anglerfish caviar or something equally absurd, but this is lifesaving medicine. I wish terrible things on the people who set those prices, that’s pure evil.

Does the US not have generic unbranded drugs?

Generics are literally a fact of life over here (UK) and the fact that Americans are going insane over them is wild to me. The NHS will prescribe generics as standard because they’re cheaper to supply and they’re literally the same drug.

My mother has a whole goody-bag of medication and there’s not a single brand name to be seen. They’ve kept her going for >10 years.

Sun, moon, and something-else-I-can’t-remember signs.

“Weird” feels like such a mild way to describe John Harvey Kellogg.

Oh look, another reason to not use Shitter and also to loathe Musk. I do love adding them to my mental list.

Not surprising, though. Musk has that kind of vibe.

Hope they enjoy getting their faces eaten!

Please let it be AI.

I mean, the bar is on the ground at this point at best.

It was a painful process, having my love of Pokémon games slowly stripped away until I finally gave up on them. It’s hard giving up on something that you’ve loved from childhood. Pokémon used to be my comfort game and it’s now unplayable trash.

The only reason I still have my Switch at all right now is the Zelda franchise because I currently lack the means to emulate. And the occasional sale item from the eShop because I’m not paying full price for a Switch game ever again after they ruined Pokémon.

I’m surprised no one’s brought up the hellscape we know as the Nintendo eShop. It’s >90% trash.

In descending order of good privacy:

• Tor (not necessary for the majority of use-cases)
• Hardened Firefox (you can find tutorials for this with a quick Google)
• Mullvad
• Librewolf
• Brave (yes there’s controversy about crypto and the founder being a dick, it’s still miles better than Chrome)
• Everything else
• Chrome itself (seriously, don’t use Chrome)

My number 1 recommended plugin for privacy and getting rid of ads is always ✨ uBlock Origin ✨ (not uBlock, that’s not the one by the OG dev).

With a latte, it’s just normal steamed milk. A cappuccino has foamy steamed milk. Specifically, it has an equal volume of steamed milk and foam taking up space in the cup. You get more actual milk diluting the coffee in a latte, resulting in a milder drink.

We need them in most residential areas honestly. I live by a main road in my town and there’s so many people with these cars in the wee hours of the morning. I hate them.

The CEO at my last place used to forget his passwords at least once a week, would write them on Post-It notes on his desk (and lose them by day’s end).

We had a dashboard that showed failed security and he was many, many times worse than the rest of the business combined. That man cost the business more in IT time than anyone.

This was a bank. Granted, a small lending-only bank but still, I would never get a mortgage or loan with these people.

They should have just put a Yubikey on his keys. He never lost those.

Yes, child rapists should be ostracised forever. As adults, we have a responsibility to protect the children in our communities. Sorry if this is hard for you to understand but the safety of innocent children is infinitely more important than the poor delicate feelings of a child rapist. If they don’t want to suffer the consequences of their actions, then they shouldn’t do the bad thing.

Also, he didn’t even serve the full sentence given by the court that sentenced him. So no, he did not serve his punishment. That’s a load of shite. His government extradited him and let him off easy. And then they effectively spat on the whole punishment again by letting him represent his country anyway.

It doesn’t matter how long ago it was. The harm was still real. And it screams “we care more about perpetrators’ rights than victims.” Or maybe they don’t care because the victim wasn’t Dutch. I don’t know.

I do however agree that they shouldn’t go after his family. He committed the crime, not them. Even if I am disgusted by the very idea of anyone willing to sleep with a nonce. Still not my business.

Kavernacle just did a very succinct video on this exact topic https://youtu.be/JmA-0it04Wk?feature=shared

It really does feel like that right now, as someone who lives in northern England.

The only liberty they care about is their own liberty. Everyone else can go do one.
