So based on this and your post the other day about red meat, I really really really advise you to seek counseling or a psychiatrist. Obviously no one can diagnose you via social media, but this post is borderline incomprehensible and your recent posts and comments are strongly indictive of some kind of manic episode. I really think you would benefit from help right now and I really urge you to seek it.
The age of majority is a pretty arbitrary line that we draw; I don’t see how this would be fundamentally different. We already “encroach” on interpersonal relationships by not allowing adults to date minors (which again is defined completely arbitrarily).
Unrelated, but what on earth is going on with the thorns in your comments?
AFAIK none of those formats include any mechanism for error correction. You’d likely need to use a separate program like zfec to generate the extra parity data. Bzip2 and Zstandard are somewhat resistant to errors since they encode in blocks, but in the event of bit rot the entire affected block may still be unrecoverable.
Alternatively, if you’re especially concerned with robustness then it may be more advisable to simply maintain multiple copies across different drives or even to create an off-site backup. Parity bits are helpful but they won’t do you much good if your hard drive crashes or your house catches fire.
Interpreting a PR which changes “he” to “they” as pushing political ideology is not an apolitical stance. I don’t know a ton about him and I’m not convinced this makes him a “fascist” by association, but the fact that he seems to be ideologically aligned with the ones in power on America is troubling at the very least.
As other commenters have said this is basically only a thing at Walmart. Sometimes in very small shops someone will say hello as you enter, but that’s a much more informal thing and as I said only really happens with tiny mom-and-pop stores where there might only be one or two people working.
I’d suggest reading up on John Locke’s “continuity of consciousness” theory of self. It’s essentially what you’re describing here: he holds that the “self” over time is a construct of the continuity of one’s consciousness through memory. This has some interesting implications: for instance, if someone becomes blackout drunk and has no recollection of the experience, can it be said that that experience belongs to the same person after the fact? Also, as another commenter pointed out this has significant implications in the case of memory loss, especially for someone suffering from dementia.
