At least it was painless /s
I do agree the death penalty should be abolished, by the way

There’s a great Jacob Geller video about how methods of execution have evolved and why they’ve evolved.
I wouldn’t do it justice but it points out how every time we make a ‘more humane’ way of killing it often just reduces the person’s ability to show suffering, rather than reducing the suffering itself. In many cases the suffering is increased as we say the method is less barbaric; a firing squad has the highest success rate and likely the fastest death.
I can’t recommend this enough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eirR4FHY2YY Piped bot do your thing
I don’t think I’ve ever seen ‘vise’ written down before, I always just assumed it was spelled ‘vice’! You learn something new every day
I’m not the intended recipient but thanks for a considered response. Even if I can’t fully agree, it was a much better approach
Boo! Stop being a douche and attack their arguments. Attacking them personally just makes you look petty.
Worth noting that harvesting organs from non-consenting people would also be logical from a business perspective, provided it were legal. Free high value produce!
Not to put words in the mouth of the previous commenter, but logic is an extremely different argument compared to their argument of ethics- I don’t think they were confused about why it happened but rather concerned that it happened despite the ethical issues around (potentially, Im not familiar with the Rocket League situation) removing a game from a platform that many people bought it solely for :)
Regardless, I think it makes sense for people to be upset as, to your point, the most logical business decisions often run counter to the ethical or emotional considerations of the customers.
Also no here :(
This sounds like how you get a resonance cascade… Experiments so powerful they make the sky glow as only our star can!
Ah, a common mistake to make. It’s not ‘re-ddit,’ Im pretty sure it comes from ‘reddi-t’ as in “Ready Tea” but like many early 2000s websites they tried to make it sound more approachable, so it’s just ‘reddi-t’ as your cup of tea will be cool enough to drink by the time it’s transmitted all your data.
Oh no :( Now the game is even more emotionally charged, I suppose.
One I’ve not seen mentioned but made me bawl my eyes out is ‘Presentable Liberty’ Im not sure about the remake, but the original was pretty short and was gripping, despite the low level of action.
Just noticed this, fair play to you! Sorry for the misunderstanding :)
Hi, different person here, genuine question as I’ve never seen someone who believes that before: can I ask, do you think the temperature rise from entering this interglacial period is correlated with the temperature increases we’re seeing at the moment?
It’s a fact the temperature is going up now, but if you’re suggesting that it’s because we’re exiting another ice age, even a ‘micro’ one, what level of temperature increase would you expect to see, roughly? (Doesn’t have to be a number, just some idea would be nice) Less than when we ‘left’ the not-micro iceage?
As a female tech lead, its comforting to know I don’t exist!
Which nation, out of interest?
I agree wholeheartedly. My point was more that if you’re making execution into a pseudo-medical event (For example with lethal injections) then you’re going to have more botched executions since the people performing them aren’t medical personnel.
While I don’t believe we should have executions a gun is designed to be used with little training, but syringes and medical gas supply masks (Don’t know the actual name for them) are meant to be used with training. If executions are going to happen surely we should consider the aptitude of those administering them?
