While I agree that culture and education are not just means to the end of getting a lucrative job, I think that GP’s point is that it is easier for a white American, _even if they only care about money_, to appear as if they cared about oth

There used to be a Milan-Barcelona night train, with Talgo stock, but it has been discontinued a few years ago. The problem with Spain is that the majority of the network has non-standard gauge (approximately everything except the AVE high

I don’t think I understand what you mean. There are certainly fringe leftist groups in the world and in Switzerland, but this [1] is not one of them. [1] fbschweiz.ch

To add some context: the group that promoted this initiative is a fringe ultraconservative one. Among other things, in 2020 they were denying the existence of Covid and in 2021 they did an anti 5G campaign.

I remember reading (can’t find the source anymore) that ether would work as knock-out drug, and that indeed it was used as a plot device in crime books as chloroform is used in movies today. The problem is that ether can be highly toxic at

It’s not that simple, because of adverse selection. I wrote another comment about it https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33924689
