Good that OLED displays are no longer a luxury.

You’re this close to inventing plain old files, synchronized.

The Country Formerly Known As Russia

Blockchain is legit useful for government-bypassing banking. Complete fucking bullshit use-cases for hallucinating intellectual property infringement machines are, like, each and every of their use cases.

What have you tried?

We are a stupid neural network trained to detect fertile partners of a specific sex. Ever wondered why so many girls try to oversaturate, say, their naturally ever so slightly brighter lip color? Everything mass beauty industry does is taking male/female characteristics and dialing them up to eleven.

All to make our mating radar detect the gender from as many yards away as possible.

Being animals sucks. =/

If it needs a server to talk to others, that’s already bad. If it needs a server, but it can be my server, it’s palatable. That’s all the criteria you need.

There are sane countries out there, and you just so happen to be movement-privileged an well-off.

And you become a successful businesswoman carrying a chocolate bar with her at all times because of your childhood fear of starvation. Sure, that doesn’t sound messed up at all.

Yes.

Our team created a custom notification solution and managed to implement it in an energy-efficient way, an alternative to Google’s FCM that lets us fully bypass Google’s infrastructure.

FFS, it’s a calendar. It has no business connecting anywhere.

Love how when the dev of this felt compelled to link to atl, their browser gave them the link with /-/issues at the end. Really shows the effort that went into porting.

They already have a dozen, they all suck.

No blocking and static content.

If it HAS to have user-generated content, then 1) it’s an app, not a website 2) have it untraceable to me from it to me 3) shove it in a jurisdiction that doesn’t care. Still no blocking.

Sounds like 1FA with extra steps.

Tell me you’re insecure without saying you’re insecure.

Syncthing, a peer to peer file synchronize that basically everyone needs, they just don’t know it.

[being in US is hard]

[then don’t]

many in the US can hardly do anything but work

Whatever, you weren’t listening anyway.

US citizens have the most powerful passport in the world and a cost of living that makes overseas travel profitable. There’s no goalposts moving here. Paying a shitton of extortion money for a privilege of not paying the overblown price might be a decision to make might be a dexision they consciously make, but that’s not my point. My point is, this medicine does not cost nearly as much, and the only reason >$1000 numbers are thrown around is that nobody in their sound mind pays them. If you’re willing to embark on side-discussions, I’m willing to entertain you, just stop bringing up your movable goalposts.

Lastly, the whole point is how in the US quality insurance IS a privilege

Having rights of a US citizen is a privilege. Living in US while having rights of a US citizen is a privilege on top of a privilege. But one doesn’t have to. That’s absolutely a choice. Repeat after me. An Afghan person with nearly no rights and a cost of ticket to US exceeding their life-long salary doesn’t move to US because it’s a privilege. But for a US hobo, whose monthly expenses far exceeding a ticket to a sane country they’re “magically” already allowed to enter anytime they want, staying in US is a choice. Don’t even try to twist that into a privilege. Time and flexibility, my ass. US citizens spawn with a golden ticket and a knob to dial life difficulty to “easy”. If they stay in US past their healthy young prime, that’s on them.

Off-topic? Goalposts? Misinformation?

Now that you’ve named specific drugs, it’s awfully easy to show how US is just a scam: https://www.statista.com/statistics/312014/average-price-of-humira-by-country

The difference between US and the runner-up is worth not just two plane tickets, but a lavish vacation. Just accept it, you’re being had and it never crossed your mind to do the reasonable thing.
