I am against the death penalty, it’s a barbaric practice and not something a civilized country should do.
But for fucks sake, when you decide to have it, why not just heavily sedate someone first, with the help of an anesthesiologist or another medical professional?
Interesting, thanks for sharing
Upvoted.
I have a counterpoint to those claiming that paid are better. By using a privacy oriented search engine, then they don’t know exactly who you are. In theory just your IP. Maybe fingerprinting.
When paying they know exactly who you are. You have to trust them.
So in one case you can protect yourself, in the other you have to trust them.
Also, Kagi also uses the Russian index Yandex 😑
If you are confident you can be a bit embarrassing and people just like you more for it. You are open, unique, a bit quirky and cute. They laugh with you, not at you. At work people lower their guards around you and you get people to deliver quality and get shit done. Being well liked and often right is a killer combo in the engineering world.
Embrace the cringe, so that the cringe just becomes embarrassing, then it becomes good times and team building.
I wish I was stronger in this regard. Will make and a eat a vegetarian dinner today though.
Thanks, that mortality rate is frighteningly high. Luckily no human to human transmission so far. Hopefully never.
Might be good to have some personal protective equipment in my emergency toolkit, as people would probably go instantly nuts for that if there is a breakout of human to human transmission.
I live in Norway, so the government will do everything in it’s power to protect its citizens probably. Like it did during COVID.
Theres no supply chain issues here currently either. During COVID pretty much everything was available besides acceptably priced GPUs
How to prepare for this shit again? I guess I can start by storing some masks, and a lot more food.
Any advice or thoughts? I can work from home fulltime, and grocery deliveries is possible.
I don’t get why people support the death penalty in certain cases. It is never fair, moral or ethical.
This man did something absolutely horrible, but not close, not even by a factor of ten, to what the Norwegian terrorist Anders Behring Breivik did.
In Norway we imprisoned him, probably for life, but we don’t kill him. We make sure he has a life that is reasonably comfortable inside prison. Because we are better than him. All life has value. Even his. We spend the miniscule amount of money is to provide him a decent life within confinement.
Recently a person was found innocent after spending about 20 years in prison for rape and killing two children. He would have been dead if we had capitol punishment in Norway.
Even if he seems lost completely and outside the possibility of rehabilitation, we give everyone a somewhat worthy life.
There are individualistic and collective ways of looking at this. Did society fail these people? Why did they become this way? Or was this destined to happened, because they are in some way inherently evil. If society failed in some way, then they at least deserve the minimum of a reasonably comfortable life in prison.
Because it is always partly a failing of society, true justice is never death.
Thanks for the thorough reply. I might share some of your views on borders, but so far more as a thought experiment. I have heard similar takes on borders before, but am not convinced from a practical standpoint. More from an idealistic one.
I am also very strongly on A.
I am curious, where are you on this? Do you think this is ok?
I don’t think PeerTube will take a significant market share or become a lot more popular until it gets some sort of monetization scheme in place. Maybe if bandwidth for 1080p is basically free in 10-20 years.
Just a friendly headsup about Odysee. You are probably aware already and are selecting content carefully based on this, but Odysee hosts a lot of content that is considered disinformation, hate speech, far-right etc.

Consider using Grayjay, you can combine creators from various sources to one app. Including YouTube, Peertube, Dailymotion, Odysee and lots of others.
I subscribe to some people on PeerTube and Dailymotion (only news orgs) alongside my Youtube subs, so that I am not only relying on YouTube
I agree in principle, society is demonizing nudity and sex. This has got to change. Society needs to change in order to fix this and many other issues related to sex and nudity.
As long as it affects a persons reputation and their standing, this is a problem. Any person can harm someone with this technology, and as a society we can not accept that.
Most people could not make a decent fake sex tape with any person in the world with low effort before. Now they can.
Should creating deepfakes for personal consumption be legal/illegal? Distribution is the real problem. The rest is fantasizing with tools more or less. Some people will understandably not like it if they find out other people fantasize about them, but that is close to thought crime. What is acceptable? Is a stickdrawing with names too much? What if I am really good at realistic drawings? What if I draw many images in a book and make a physical animation of ouf it? Is the limit anything outside my head? What if I draw a politician fellating another one and distribute it as art/satire?
The short term solution is to ban deepfakes, the long term is probably something else, but I am not sure what. There is not inherently any actual abuse in deepfakes, there is no actual sex either. So it’s a reputational/honor and disgust thing. These things still matter a lot in societies, so we can’t ignore it either.
Same here, not a chat for that many years though
I have a group chat going with my best friends, on Signal too.
It’s a great place to share the memes, news etc we find. Also some discussions once in a while and planning to meet.
Hugo Boss can help!
I completely agree, the only thing a woman needs to be complete is a husband, four children, and a clean house.

Maybe even breaking sanctions and supporting terrorists
