I’ve never really seen any purity tests unless shit like ‘It would be nice if rich people had to obey the law’ is a purity test.

It’ll make a wonderful artificial reef, so kind of russia to begin its reperations by helping to bolster Ukraines future fishing industry.

To be fair there’s zero evidence for anything outside our own subjective experience of it, we’re just kind of running with the assumption that our subjective experience is an accurate representation of reality.

As if they’d try so hard, take it from someone with shitty internet, the box absoloutely appears in that spot after you click.

Don’t forget each worker also has to simultaniously spend $∞ on goods and services.

Its due to heavy adaptation specifically around snakes, when the first true snakes evolved they were basically meta (causing at least 1 extinction of an entire group and probably more we don’t know about) so whole ecosystems had to shift to basically not be fucked up by snakes.

To be fair I can make a 3D printer work more easily and for longer without any maintenance than a regular ass printer. I get that inkjets are actually super complex but bro there are now cases where it is literally easier to make a thing than to print out a picture of that thing.

The problem I find is even when I genuinely try to do this their reasoning is genuinely incomprehensible to me, these people don’t care about what they can see with their own eyes let alone scientific concensus, its a world view with more basis on how they feel inside their own heads than whats hitting them in the face in real life.

Thats gotta be some organized crime thing, I mean the essence of a casino is convincing a bunch of people to gamble in a way where its possible that none of them win in which case you get all the money.

The UK already had its own epstein island moment with a child sex traficking scandal involving british parliment, it vanished inside a week.

Well the Russia report described russian money as not just accepted but ‘welcomed with open arms’ in the UK so really this is just russian ship in the waters of the country they purchased.

On the bright side with much of the world ramping up renewables for various economic and defense purposes we might see the US and Russia fuck themselves up over oil just in time for the market to collapse.

Even a genuinely perfect model would immediately skew to bias; the moment some statistical fluke gets incorporated into the training data that becomes self re-enforcing and it’ll create and then re-enforce that bias in a feedback loop.

The Unmentionables?

How about faces the same punishment someone that isn’t an incredibly rich corporation would face? If that’s insurance then sure, if thats jail time then yes someoen should be punished just like anyone else would.

At this point that picture should be multiple layers of precariously stacked tiny pillars making up the entire base.

It outright says:
“13% of non-winners switch to favour the right-wing. By contrast, nearly 18% of the winners who get more than 500 pounds switch to the right-wing party”
That is a description of induviduals, 18% of people become more right wing, not 100% of people become 18% more right wing.

So I read the study, first of all the paper aknowledges that there’s a several point swing in voting preference between non winners and people who won less than £500 which strongly implies people who play the lottery are more likely to vote right wing to begin with. Secondly even for large wins the swing was only around 18%. At worst money does not make everyone a bad person, more like 1/5 people.

Or those were previously just assholes without money? Nice people who win the lottery likely don’t stay rich for long because they use that money to help people they know.

Does money reduce empathy or is lack of empathy just a serious advantage in acumulating money?
