Critically somewhere that doesn’t cost money to simply exist in.

Thanks! I’ll have to see if I can find something similar in my country.

Just how it sounds I guess. Things must not be going great when you have a need to dispense bleach haha.

I agree, but the problem is how dangerous many of the chemicals are in dry concentrations.

People already mix household bleach with acidic cleaners. Imagine if they had dry sodium hypochlorite sitting around.

Bleach dispensers at the supermarket or pharmacy sound pretty dystopian but maybe shipping the concentrate and mixing at the PoS is safer.

Plastics are a waste product of converting oil to useful fuels. That’s why they’re so cheap and used in the most unbelievably wasteful ways. They’ll remain inextricably linked. Fuel is expensive, plastics are incredibly cheap. If we ban the use of fossil fuels but still rely on oil based plastics, plastics will become very expensive and we’ll still be creating the fuel. We’ll just have a growing supply of worthless energy sitting around and decaying in storage.

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea as I’m not an expert by any means, but to keep plastics for essential uses like in medicine will likely require a heavily subsidized plastic industry at least. But hey we already subsidize the fossil fuel industry directly and by externalizing the planet destroying effects of their use…

• Giving the state the power to kill it’s citizens never ends well for democracy
• Many people are exonerated after being convicted. How many innocent lives is revenge worth?
• Is your ideal justice system punitive?

The list goes on and on

I think you underestimate just how effective economy of scale is. Labour is also a relatively small portion of manufacturing costs.

How does this make what he said wrong?

Only PiV is illegal in Japan. All other sex work is explicitly legal.

We shouldn’t absolve people of their sins because someone else might have acted the same.

You’re right, but we should also hate Bezos.

Shit, thank you for the explanation.

So based on the article it’s safe to assume Thailand is starting this?
