that's wierdly cool and thoughtful

...

(and make fun of them of course. )

@Starship Cause they're manifestly unethical, and there's nothing wrong with them losing all their business and going bankrupt

But I didn't advocate murder. I advocated science.

And people who think this stuff is fine prisoned

Oh, I'd want the company to die.

I literally said murder wasn't fine

Not saying murder's fine, but that "innocent" is hardly a load bearing description

@Starship oh, that insurance company was infamous for replacing employees with AI, and denying obviously valid claims

Also Death penalties are usually used for single murders.

@Starship Hypothetically, that guy probably legally let a lot of people die for profits.

@AndreascondemnsIsrael I disagree with it in many contexts. I definately disagree with the idea of it being mandatory in almost all contexts

@Spevacus I mean, it shows how little hope people have in fixing the system

Would have saved a lot of people, and he could have trailblazed the way for communism. IN SPACE!

@Starship They could have sent Stalin.

@Starship apparently there was a way to euthanise the dog, but they wanted data, and let the poor thing die alone in the cold of space

Besides, I sort of addressed the attention span thing

@SmokeDetector too slow

@AndreascondemnsIsrael I like writing meta posts \o/

@cocomac Neither am I, but in context I think its grimly funny

@AndreascondemnsIsrael We'll need to see. I've a few suspicions, but I don't trust the company to have the attention span to follow up

@AndreascondemnsIsrael I cannot begin to explain how messed up that is

@Starship there's a really bad, topical joke behind that I'd better not explain

and "the practical study of the after effects of thermonuclear war" is not good science if there's no one left to publish or peer review it

Make science, not war

(I don't actually endorse that, there's too much junk in space as is)

Like politicians, and insurance company CEOs

We should send less lamented things to their potential deaths in the cold of space.

It can be remembered

And this makes it ok how?

Laika sure didn't

And he chose

(covered up his dead? Sure. But he would have come home if he hadn't died)

Would they have left Gagarin in space?

That's what they want you to think

@AndreascondemnsIsrael eh, or brought Laika home

@AndreascondemnsIsrael Mankind reached space not on the shoulders of giants, but in the footsteps of a dog that never came home >_>

Also, the video is trippy as heck

Its all fun and games till you're floating around a tin can far above the world

@AndreascondemnsIsrael In this country, we obey the laws of gravity

One might even call it my weapon of choice

This is literally what I dig up to do soldering

But if you want a recommendation

I wonder if charcoal got a little heavily loaded by the spam waves

free shipping over 15 for me, and the full kit is 22

ah so

If you're desoldering something, touch of flux, heat up the solder, apply braid which sucks it up, snip the braid, and repeat. I did an entire keyboard like that :D

@AndreascondemnsIsrael and everything you need to get started
