The dead already have many rights: - right to control distribution of property through a will - right to control method of remains disposal (up to a point) - right to dignified treatment (e.g. no desecration of the remains) - rights against

I'm genuinely confused how they think people will believe this - it really is the "just lie" stage. Take a look at these statements from steam and itch.io: "We were recently notified that certain games on Steam may viola

If this statement was remotely true then itch.io would have no problem allowing NSFW and LGBT content, and steam would be fully allowed to host their incestuous adult games. Alas, that is not the world we live in.

Comparing a profession to the most addictive and harmful drug known to mankind (or at least close to it!) is an absurd strawman.

This comment is deeply confusing. I'm really not sure what the argument is. Are you trying to say that any profession that has occupational hazards should be outlawed? In that case I hope you're ready to outlaw policing, firefight

It looks like Sweden's politicians are too sheltered to understand that there are people who enjoy sex work. Instead of trying to make it safe and enjoyable for all parties, they're systemically punishing sex workers, and even red

i could be wrong but I think they're referring to the winrar model, where there are occasional "annoyances" that you can either ignore or pay to get rid of.

What you've presented is not an argument against public healthcare, it's actually an argument against poorly funded public healthcare. Conservative politicians in both of the countries you mentioned have been systematically, over

I once had to deal with some contractors that habitually did this, when confronted on how this could lead to confusion they said "that's what Ctrl+F is for."

So long as we're pretending to care about the Youtube TOS, offline downloading without premium is against their TOS. And even then you're only permitted to download and view offline through the YouTube phone app.

Are you aware of the storied history of companies outright faking data in industry "studies"? Here's a good introduction: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9263403/

Any study done by an industry, for said industry, is necessarily rife with large, obvious conflicts of interest. It's barely worth considering.
