You tell me? Why bring it up if it wouldn’t work?

But you haven’t, have you?
Come on. He got 200+ vaccine shots. That in itself says he was never fine to begin with.
You are right in principle. New words can pop up. Them being accepted however is not just a matter of a few people using them and saying that it is so.
It’s about usage and being accepted in larger groups or areas. Language is defined by what’s surviving a generation or two. Everything else is slang.
That would be spelling it out. For me, just saying it’s wrong, and letting someone find out why, that’s hugely more helpful than spoon-feeding Information.
Who would downvote this? It’s true. It’s helpful. It’s free advice.
I guess I would also answer that with controversial opinion.
They don’t want a better platform. Reddit does exactly what they want it to do. To generate tons of discussions about the same things, over and over again. To generate loads of different feelings and situations. To create a very diverse pool of data.
They might have started out with a good ideology, but then success came.
I like to compare it with Quora. It could have been the best site of its kind. But it served its purpose, being a feed-bucket for an AI, and now it’s not even moderated anymore. And they did pay their users and mods, but it didn’t work out, too many tiny transactions, only like a handful of people got anything, and those abused it like crazy.
Just my take on it. Such payment models won’t work. A few giants will earn the majority, and they will cheat and fight for it, the rest will still get nothing. They could have taken three thirds of that CEO money to create a few resident jobs. But why bother, Reddit is exactly how they want it to be. Most users just don’t realize the pseudo-scam, believing it’s their favorite discussion platform that they can influence, while the creators have a content-generator with free labor in mind.
So what, give the CEO half and pay the rest to the mods? Like 1300 bucks per year without tax and fees. What would be left? 50 bucks per month? Reddit has like 75000 moderators. Some for huge Subreddits, some for small ones. Equal pay? Or what?
Someone has to organize all that paying, many are in different countries, different tax laws. In the end, there would be like 20 bucks per month for each. You then would also require extra heavy checks for moderation quality to ensure they are worth their pay. You’d need systems to prevent abuse. If there’s money involved, people become extra greedy. Just pay some of them? Only the ones working a few hours per day? Pay per moderating action? What?
Or you just do double pay for the CEO. Seems like a no-brainer.
Vaping is mostly illegal because tobacco companies have to switch. They have a lot of production facilities. Those need to be tuned down, closed or converted. That would cost them a lot of money. So it’s best to slow that down with laws.
Tobacco companies make the laws. If anything related to them is outlawed or regulated or taxed, it is because they want it that way.
Things that are outlawed become regulated. Things that are regulated can be made expensive. It takes money to compete in a regulated market. It’s a long-game. And tobacco knows how to play a long-game.
My guess: They’ll wait until more small companies pop up, then buy them all, and then kill tobacco, which is much less profitable than producing vape stuff. And then they’ll triple the price.
For me, it was the plants and the fiber. They made me groggy, sleepy, and constipated. The word antinutrients is slowly becoming an item; And for me, it’s true. Without them, I instantly felt better, stronger. And I had a much bigger will to live.
Keto to carnivore was as big a difference as standard diet to keto.
I would call it keto on easy mode.
I quit alcohol, carbohydrates, weed, porn and tobacco two and a half years ago at age 42, a few weeks after breaking my clavicle in complicated ways, and while checking for additional damage, a fatty liver was identified.
I never picked up alcohol, weed, porn and tobacco and reintegrated sugar in reasonable amounts, like at social events.
I did it cold turkey. One day to the next. It was absolute hell for three days. I was sick, had a fever and malaria like sweats. Then it was a psychological shitshow for two weeks.
I was overweight, so I fasted completely for six days to withstand any temptations. Only had salt and water / electrolytes. After six days I had eggs and sardines for two weeks or so. Didn’t poop for almost a month, even had a colonoscopy to check. Everything was fine. Just adapting.
Then I did keto for a few months, found that to be too complicated, and then went carnivore with social-event exceptions, and never looked back. Keto was fine, but being a carnivore changed everything. All my little ailments went away. Skin issues, scalp issues, rashes, moodiness, sleepiness, urges and cravings, all of it.
Lost 12 kg in those first two weeks, barely slept, but was energetic like hell, only skipped work when having the fever and sweats.
Two weeks of hell, half a year of experiments and two years of a new life. It is like being 20 years younger. I haven’t been sick or ill since, either.
Good luck to you.
Why the downvoting?
People of today know a lot about everything. Yet we still have wars, pointless diseases born out of ignorance, discrimination beyond belief, causing people to even want to undergo surgery to escape, so much hate.
We know so many things, and we ignore it all. The opposite of enlightenment. We live in ignorance. And we celebrate ignorance.
Healthy at any weight, right? Fuck evidence to the contrary.
They are educated more. The opposite of enlightenment.
Fair enough.
Not smoking though. Working in a Hospital, child care, amongst other areas. Bored parents are the best.;)
What do you mean, the same group of people? You take the vaccine once, usually when you are a child. So if you got it for your kid, and they decided you are an archaic, brainwashed fool and didn’t get it for theirs, there you go.
I’m pretty sure humanity would die out that way. Inspired to raise one? For most people, it just happens. I’d go so far and say that half of all pregnancies are unplanned. Inspired. What world are you living in? Sounds like a very entitled one.
If you have the means to raise a kid, you should. That’s the whole purpose of your body. Seriously. The meaning of life.
You’ve been brainwashed for too long if you think that a kid could be a burden. Especially if you have time to be bored. That’s the reason you are bored in the first place: you are not fulfilling your only true purpose.
What has society done to you that you believe reaching level 140 on mage or knitting a hat is worth more than raising a kid?
It’s the “they don’t even think about it” part that makes me feel this way.
With cars, it just leads to wasted space and resources.
Working in a hospital, that same thinking leads to Dialysis, Metabolic Disease and amputations. I see it multiple times per day.
Often intelligent people, but acting moronic. Not using their intelligence. That’s quite apparent in SUVs. They cost a fortune, so it’s usually not stupidity. It’s just them being mindless. And without a second thought about others.
I stand by my choice of words.
Sometimes, yeah, an SUV makes sense. Then again, driving it into a congested city, that doesn’t make sense.
If I saw someone driving it through a mountainous region, I wouldn’t say anything. That’s fine. :)
And having it being used by one person without any gear or load at all for 98% of the time.
Dreh die Antenne nach links, ich krieg nur rauschen hier unten.
It would be white noise, “weißes rauschen”, but nobody ever said the “white” part.
