Holy shit, that ISO is real. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3103

STOP! Or I’ll say “stop” again!

JFC, have you been under a rock the last decade? The majority of American population? Maybe. The oligarchs and ruling class? Pft, Trump looks up to Putin as a ‘strong man’. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/03/28/politics/trump-putin-ukraine-russia-smart/index.html

Death to america

It’s not about ethics, it never was. It’s about CONTROL.

Better get your tinfoil hat then. What @davidgro says is right, your fantasy ideas are just that. Sure, in coming centuries this tech might be possible to be miniaturised and read externally, but for now that’s not even close to possible.

Damn I forgot about the dropbears. Keep your wits about you and you’ll usually be OK, plus we teach kids to stay in pairs if they’re passing through a eucalyptus area.

As an Aussie, I can say the trope of “everything wants you dead” is highly overhyped. I’ve seen three venomous snakes in the wild in my life (and I’ve mostly lived in rural areas) and there’s a couple of venomous spiders, but none that will kill you (unless you’re very young, very old, or very sick). Blue-ringed octopuses, crocodiles and sharks exist, but rarely cause human deaths. You know what we don’t have? Bears. Alligators. Cougars. Wolves. Very few carnivores trying to eat humans here, it’s mostly creatures with excellent self-defense mechanisms.

Brian is saying the quiet part out loud.

When they could weaponise it against people trying to make the world better.

I suspect you think you come across as some kind of cat-health lifestyle warrior. But in reality you sound like a selfish asshole. You know what the right thing to do is, but it’s too haaaarddd! Waaah!

You must realise that taking the side of the abuser doesn’t look great for you… champ?

Based on your other comments in this thread, it’s mighty bold of you to be using the word ‘logic’. Why do you insist on putting words in people’s mouths - I’m definitely not advocating for vigilante justice, or ‘guilty until proven innocent’. I just want to reduce the protections offered to people who rape children. I can’t imagine why anyine would be against that, like you clearly are. You’re a bad-faith troll, or a child rapist yourself.

There everything immoral and unethical in lobbying for legislation that protects abusers or shields them from consequences. Churches should stay the fuck out of lawmaking.

I’m sure it’s a coincidence that the tobacco industry is thrilled with this news.

Only when the moon is full. When it’s a new moon, the farside is in full sun.

I came here looking to see if my point had already been made. Thanks!

In my experience, the job that HR excels at is creating and perpetuating the view that the company needs a HR dept. Generally, the most unneccesary people in an office are HR.
