We need to have an entirely different set of regulations and expectations for entities in excess of a certain size. I think 50-100 million in revenue would be a fairly reasonable starting point but even lower would be acceptable. Certainly

I think you are still vastly misunderstanding what the war on drugs concerns. This level of overdose deaths is a problem, but not really what the struggle is really about.

Tbh, most people actually don't know how to microwave. The typical microwave users just trys to "one-shot" it by punching in a time and using high heat. Proper microwaving is what gave rise to the entire concept of "fast

How would this reduce taxes? If I normally charge 20k for widget Z but only invoice company A 10k because they will see me widget B for 10k and we trade widgets, there is no taxable event. If company A was willing to pay the 20k instead obv

I'd really like to know how he won contracts, just in general. Did he have some connections. And he doesn't even know how to get it to run on a server by himself? There's millions of people that can do that, if he can win con

I find that so incredibly hard to believe, in my experience it's like the primary purpose of people in relationships past a certain age is to play matchmaker. It seems inevitable if you are consistently around people and known to be si

That's a weird take, IMO, the physical world is much more oriented around not being wealthy and you can still find plenty of community online. And your English seems fine. 90s / early 2000s internet was awesome though.

Netbus was everywhere. I would just scan random subnets and find open servers. I had one file bundled with a subseven server that somehow got passed around extensively to the point that I was constantly getting ICQ notifications of people

Yes, The fear with the war on drugs was that a large majority of the population would become addicted to hard drugs. The fear was the the US population would become like China in the 1800s and the communist aligned countries where drugs wer

You would need like 1,000,000,000,000 SQFT of solar panels to even begin to approximate a space based directed energy weapon that has a fraction of the effect of a nuclear weapon. Tens of thousands of times more than all that have ever been

Doesn't really sound like high trust, more like high risk to reward ratio.

Sort of, but there's a difference, the rise in anti-shoplifting stuff is in contrast to a decline in things like burglar bars. Stealing from residential property is seen as mostly the domain of drug addicts. Stealing from a multi-natio

Sorry that happened, scammers are the worst. Yeah unfortunately here the refund being sent proactively was the issue and eBay isn't really able to recoup those funds. Ex: the buyer used a credit card, you refund and it goes back to his

Ok. I've been through that, though it is a function of Paypal. You can absolutely recover the funds from a limited account. 20 years later, I would still pursue this. In fact, if you aren't able to log in I would check with the un

Farmers provide food, banks scalp the interest between you and the government. They aren't the same at all. Farmers, even if they are megacorps are indispensable. Banks on the other hand serve basically no function in the modern era of
