  • I didn’t know him, but apparently he financed the republicans. If that is indeed the case I say fuck this guy.

    On the other hand the site took out the middleman/madam who traditionally exploited these women (perhaps man as well) So, good for them!

    Edit: I’m an idiot, I’m sure the site took a fat percentage of the earnings, so technically they just replaced the pimps. And just like that my sympathy is gone…


  • And you imagine they’d just give the cure (whatever form that may be) away for free? That’s not what billionairs are known for! Can you imagine the calamity that such power would cause? People getting a personalized quote for curing managing their cancer, which will definitely include an “affordable” monthly payment. There is an applicable recent Black Mirror episode giving you an idea of a similar scenario.

    No, if there is ever such an endevour, I sincerly hope it will be funded by public money and there may no patents come forth of the research or cure.



















  • That’s easy. Just a matter of leaving them off. /s

    Seriously, be careful what you wish for! Hw vendors have been trying locking people out of their own devices for decades. Throw in the current trends of big tech and in a dystopian, but possible future you may not be allowed other devices than approved by the powers that be. Russia’s Max(?) app, anyone? Or the Chinees counterpart? Different kind of computerless, but there you go.

    In other words, this is a self-defeating wish. I hope not many people fall in the trap of adopting this standpoint. Wishing reality away is not a good strategy.

    Of course OP may have just attempted sarcasm. Which is fine.
