  • What's your favourite fast food burger?

    Jump

  • I don't remember the last time I had a fast food burger. And I would like to keep it that way. Thank you.

  • What's a movie you can watch often and it never gets old?

  • Alien

    Too bad they didn't make any more of them.

  • Obligatory monthly "what's your hot take?" question

  • This is not even a hot take. It's just facts.

  • Do you succumb to the urge to stop the microwave a few seconds before it actually stops ?

  • But why won't the noise turn off as soon as you open the door?

  • What's something about Microsoft Outlook that drives you crazy?

    Jump

  • Outlook doesn't use email addresses to route e-mail with Exchange servers. Instead it uses some internal "address" that is longer than the actual e-mail address. This becomes a problem when an e-mail account is deleted and then recreated later. And the old internal address is still in some users Outlook addressbook. Because the internal address changes when the account is recreated.

  • Equating Nazis and Zionists, if the shoe fits. You should be allowed to say it.

  • Or they know that there weren't any "Good guys" around.

    The Japanese war crimes are well known in the West. The US ones are routinely glossed over or ignored.

    Wars don't determine who was right. They determine who's left.

  • What are some things that everyone should try to master?

  • Know when to walk away. Know when to run.

  • Those who live outside of the US, what's something Americans aren't ready to hear?

  • Democracy doesn't have to be a tyranny of the majority. In its purest form it is. And that is why constitutional republics ensure citizen's rights in their constitutions. We need a similar system for economy.

    A sketch of that would a be a system where you'd have constitutional republic with independent legislature, judiciary and executive branches. Separated from the economic players as well as possible. They would provide the the outer bounds of a level playing field. Economy would a market economy, where ownership of companies would be distributed among the stakeholders of the system workers, customers and the executive. Similar to how governments ideally function. Workers would have "legislative" power in the company. They would be responsible for company policy. Executives would implement those policies. Customers would decide how well the company performs by either buying their products or withholding their patronage. This would need a lot of guard rails in place. But this would prevent centralization of power in the hands of an "owner"-class.

    Transitioning to this type of system would not be that difficult. As most of what it has is already there. In western democracies. At least on paper. There would be a lot of resistance to this from the "owner"-class. I have no doubt of that.

  • For a growing economy with an excess of people and resources it's pretty good.

    Our current world, not so much.

    The problem is that there isn't a currently viable alternative.

  • All data on the internet is replaced with a hallucinating AI. While not completely fraudulent enough is changed to know it's been altered. What media is now your responsibility to preserve?

  • The problem is that most heretic versions were intentionally and efficiently destroyed. The only ones that survived were by accident.

  • Most of the work on the Bible was done in a committee hundreds of years after the alleged events. So most probably just plain old fashioned alcohol.

  • Do you think United Health Care is going to have trouble finding a replacement CEO?

    Jump

  • If I ever wanted to ruin a megacorporation for ruining my life, I'd start going after the lowest wrung of the ladder. Give two warnings and then execute the plan on them. Non-fatal accidents and the like. Warn again. Move on to the next one. Warn them etc. Repeat as long as necessary. Never go for the higher ups that can afford security.

    This will probably never happen to me, because I don't live in the late stage capitalist hell-scape.

  • The copy/paste thing has been true for years even before the Reddit API exodus. Also bot-farms have been active for quite some time as well.

  • Have you ever dated someone? What is like?

    Jump

  • At least you got to experience that connection. Some people never get that. It truly is better to have loved and lost someone. Than not to have loved at all.

    Lots of Internet hugs from here. Let's beat loneliness epidemic together.
