Those are goods. Shares are also not property, in the real sense. They are fractional ownership.

Ack, yeah it's one of those 'well duh', until people who have no idea blindly copy the idea and then plague, or prions, or arsenic poisoning, or whatever.

Hardly, it's quite a clear relationship and exercised constantly - if you do the math re: share classes and look at what a corporation actually does. In most large corporations, 10% is often the largest single shareholder and/or b

Shares are proxies for ownership/control. What you are proposing is literally what China does to ensure CCP control of all businesses. Do you really want whoever is in power at the moment to have (even more direct) control over every b

It may also have contributed a bit to the planning - HEAT (the movie) came out before the North Hollywood bank robbery and shootings, but clearly influenced them. I don’t think there is any plausible direct relationship, just zeitgeist&#x2

That isn’t a tax by the normal definition, just seizure.

It isn’t quite pick it up and sell it (just like most mining) - a lot of work goes into finding and consistently identifying the correct grade.

Cash payments are great therapy. Also, ask an older German if you think I’m kidding.

Plenty of substances bio accumulate, and being less than careful with animal waste as fertilizer causes outbreaks and disease.

Good luck actually doing that, however. Plenty of folks wishing to pretend though.

Privacy. Stalkers. Abusive ex’s. And if you think it’s assholes targeted this way, look at all the women being stalked via flock by cops. And if you think finances aren’t abused the same way, why do you think the Germans are so worked up ab

Not for stopping damage to the end-payers of those fees. Great for fleecing those end-payers, however.

Like all LLM related issues, it doesn't until it does. Or does until it doesn't. Either way, you get no visibility or predictability. Good luck.

It literally completely wiped from existence hundreds of reinforced multistory concrete buildings. It's much worse than you seem to think based on the videos.

There is a LOT of overgrowth. Expect a decade+ of fires, or an apocalyptic firestorm which burns everything to cinders. Neither is awesome.

squints I mean, I’ve literally heard people do that for all of those things.

Lol, literally none of those will meaningfully reduce or stop the damage if it happens. Very applicable example for the thread!

Ah, this was pre-schengen. Nice to see it got nicer!

One way, or another, anyway.

So you know, and have no excuse. Care to name the insult?

I’ve lived in India and spent quite a bit of time in the region. It’s hard to say how ridiculous this sounds considering that experience. In theory? Sure. In reality? Lulz

Tell me you have zero idea about the region without telling me you have zero idea about the region. Insurers? Building code enforcement? Are you for real?

You’re the one making it all or nothing. give some concrete examples to prove me wrong, or stop bs’ing. don’t forget major earthquakes (most of California and the entire Pacific Rim, to name some well known areas), floods, serious droughts,

What does that concretely actually mean? There are only a handful of areas on the planet without known disaster exposure risk. Maybe zero, really.

There is also an effect being caused by social media and video sharing - loss of context. The entire Himalayan foothills area (which includes what, at least 6 different major countries off the top of my head) are potentially impacted by som

Flat lowland is great because it's cheap and easy to build on, and not a hassle to actually use. Ridgelines and slopes are terrible to build on (and often use) because there is little to no actual flat usable area without extensive con

Notably, this is exceptionally common in every country I’ve ever lived in that had such Visa’s. Including them being used as political footballs (including for India, Brazil, Germany, etc). Does it suck? Yes. Is this unexpected? Not really,
