And that’s the problem, because everyone is coerced to do that if they want to survive. And those, who own the means of production, the capital, the companies, are those who have the power to exploit those who don’t. And they do.

Open and honest communication. Just say that you’re not interested in the game.
If the host gets passive-aggressive you could try to talk civilised about that. In case they don’t show the necessary understanding or are difficult to talk to, they might not be the kind of acquaintance you would like to keep.
Mozilla Firefox does.
As it always has been.
A lot of assumptions you make there. But go on and live in a world where you think Germans are still Nazis if it makes you sleep better. I’m not in the mood of trying to reason with you about that and get into the necessary details. If you’re smart enough, you can take a deep dive into current and recent German society and politics yourself.
And another day of “let’s shove all people of group X into one drawer and judge them”.
We have all this information available through the internet. Can research even the most difficult topics by some mere hits on a keyboard and a click. And yet, there are still so many idiots. This is really mind-boggling.
Was it satisfying? How did it feel? Don’t be shy about details.
I’m… err… asking for a friend.
It is a difference how you treat those you harvest organs from. 👀
I like food.
One could even say it is fulfilling to me.
From what I briefly read, Maslow’s hierarchy is an oversimplification and academically disputed or even disproved.
Yupp. It’s by far more healthy, has an incredibly positive ecological impact (especially if sourced locally and organically) and for those who are concerned about ethical issues regarding the life and treatment of animals, this is also a win.
Yes yes. Germans are still Nazis. Alright. Never gets old that one.
German police are surely not angles and they need an independent control institution like in denmark. But to speak of “state repression” is a wild exaggeration.
Seems like you speak out of experience. Sorry for you. It’s sad that so many people forget how to treat each other respectfully.
That’s why we shouldn’t generalize so incautiously and shove all people of group X into one drawer.
Geometric series disagrees.
Samsung smart TVs already show a small ad on the home menu.
Hahahaha absolutely. :D The difference is, that they come from a 3D printer and that’s cool.
While that would indeed be awesome, that’s not the route they proposed. It’s more about slowing down the perception of time, rather than being able to actually do something peoductive during that.
Despite thinking, “wow that’s a disgusting way to see and treat humans”, and some obvious moral concerns (like, social isolation for what feels like 1000 years, which will fuck up most people badly), which make this feel like a black mirror episode, the mind-upload issue is technically extremely tricky. Even if we had the technology to “upload” the human mind, it will be a copy, a clone, not you individually. And if we don’t have an option to download the copy back into your brain, it will just be a waste of energy.
More importantly, an intriguing question is raised: After such a download, will this be you? Or just a copy of a copy and thereby another being which just replaces another one.
Another thing I find important to ask here: what’s the point of penalties? These suggestions seem to me like psychological torture rather than measures to “correct” social behaviour. In no way resocialisation seems to matter here. So we just fuck people up by that and unleash them onto society afterwards. Doesn’t sound good to me.
Sorry for not keeping my reply focused on your idea. I had some time to spare and this kept me busy.
