I question the blocking you part but understood.

Thank you.

I’m basically new, how would a user like me go about blocking these instances?

Anyone know an alternative seller of bulk needles? I really want to get off Amazon and this just confirms it for me.

Clearly a sovereign citizen.

That’s the real use of the second amendment, owning a gun with one bullet so you don’t drown in medical debt.

How about “I personally use this distro but it’s probably a bit much for you to handle. I hear Mint is beginner friendly so maybe consider checking their forum for advice.”

Cool, then you’ve got warstories about pepperballs, rubber bullets, tear gas, and horse tramplings yeah?

Maybe even a couple dead yeah?

At some point I started to hear the narrator from Disco Elysium reading this.

The greatest disrespect I’ve endured is having my pictures fed to generative AI by my mother.

By the person who’s biggest protest was probably the greens on their plate.

Microcars aren’t able to travel above 25mph for the most part because of safety regulations. So what we do have here are a bunch of LSV rated microcars which can’t be used on many streets.

As for that tax it wouldn’t do much here, more likely to just lock them into poverty.

I’d personally love to own electric car but I don’t have 40k to blow. Mivro cars which are more affordable aren’t available here as LSVs as far as I can tell. I can’t even afford to buy an electric trike. And this is speaking from my position which is definitely better than most other people.

I think something that’s lost in the weeds is how truly poor US citizens are, as it would turn out having over 50% of the wealth in the hands of the wealthy makes for a rich impoverished nation.

Take for instance gas, sure it’s cheap comparatively, it’s also subsidized by our taxes so we’re paying for gas whether we like it or not.

Nobody can afford economic cars, vehicle arms race, and light truck legislation.

The vehicle arms race is the increasingly large vehicles. SUVs are considered light trucks and light trucks have legislation which allows for them to be less fuel efficient. This encourages less efficient vehicles to roam the street and makes riding bikes and motorcycles much less safe which further encourages the arms race.

Additionally many of our roads have a speed limit at something like 35-40mph which makes it so things like microcars can’t feasibly be street legal, even ignoring the glaring issue of being in a microcar next to an SUV.

My advice is make sure that your own country never laxes laws to allow for larger vehicles, you give auto manufacturers and inch they’ll take a mile and put you into this self perpetuating cycle.

I’m sorry why even have controlled substances at this point if you do that?

If I were to hazard a guess you guys are also probably less reliant. Here vehicles are used to get anywhere and an increase to this much even if less expensive then you guys is enough that some people can’t afford food anymore.

Secret 4th option, there is so much worse you could believe in.

Why let something as silly as that stop you from participating in a relationship that you might otherwise enjoy?

As long as it’s not harmful why is it an issue?

I hunt Mice.

I said arcane for a reason and it’s definitely not because it’s magic.

Different, and sometimes less strenuous, but never less time consuming

I can’t speak on their behalf but I do agree, what does actually improve things is labor laws because otherwise they’re just going to do more work at a higher efficiency.

As an example, I do volunteering, but there’s no way I would ever reach the same level of productivity as I do at my paid job.

Your again not specifying what exactly is happening. What’s the job and what’s the volunteer work. Some volunteer services will require you give it your all. Some jobs are very relaxed. What your talking about has less to do with incentive and more to do with lax labor laws. Nonvolunteer work isn’t giving you upwards of 12 hours of mandatory overtime.

Incentives also aren’t just rewards they’re punishments and companies absolutely take advantage of the fact people are fucked without a job.

Your job and volunteer work likely have different expectations of performance from the get go and that has nothing to do with incentives.

You did touch on something though. Incentives can push people to work harder, now the issue is, what else does it introduce? It introduces redundancy where everything is being done twice, thrice, etc etc. How much more work could be done if they were working together.

If we want to talk about thinking well I don’t think cancer researchers are in it for the money. I don’t think many researchers are and if there are people like that it’s only because society has been driving us to do that for centuries. In fact I would argue it harms innovation because it incentivizes people to work towards things that make money.

By doing so we shun vulnerable minorities who aren’t a viable customer base. Minorities like trans people, amputees, chronic stroke victims, etc.

Hell this even hurts the majority, most food research is privately funded by parties with a conflict of interest. It’s not just big dairy, it’s big everything. In fact that’s how the Anti-Vaccine movement blew up in the firat place, it started as an anti-MMR movement by Wakefield who had a financial motive to have people buy individual vaccines.

At what point do we just accept it’s not capitalism that brings innovation to sociolism but the opposite? There are well intentioned people still working within capitalism, but it’s in spite of it, not because of it.

China moved to a mixed economy system after the death of its ideologist.

I’m not touching this.
