@Pestilence360@MooreDividends Über 50% des Preises sind Steuern. Aber klar dass kommunisten wie du erstmal nur daran denken noch mehr Geld für Papi Staat einzusammeln. Gleiche Leier wie beim Klimageld. Einsammeln geht immer schnell, Ausschüttung findet nicht statt. Steuern senken ist viel einfacher.
@CosmoPixen@becker_meister Und warum muss der Staat meine Nanny spielen? Ich geh 5x die Woche zum Sport und hab nen normalen BMI, warum soll ich für die gelegentliche Cola jetzt mehr Zahlen nur weil ein paar Adipose ihre Süchte nicht unter Kontrolle haben? Steuern sind Raub
Zlatan Ibrahimović blasts the referee and VAR after Croatia's last-minute goal against Portugal was ruled out:
🗣️ “That is daylight robbery. Absolute daylight robbery. Don't tell me football is better because of decisions like that. The referee and VAR have stolen the biggest moment of Croatia's World Cup.
If you need five minutes, endless replays, slow motion and lines drawn across a screen to find an offside, then it isn't a clear mistake. The referee has hidden behind VAR instead of having the courage to make a football decision.
Croatia earned that goal with heart, courage and belief. They celebrated, millions celebrated with them, and then a group of officials sitting in a room erased all of that. That's not justice that's killing the emotion of football.
This is the FIFA World Cup, not a science experiment. Fans don't travel across the world to watch officials freeze frames and measure millimetres. They come to witness unforgettable moments, and tonight one of those moments was stolen.
I don't blame Portugal I blame the referee and VAR. Croatia deserved to have that goal stand, and instead they're going home wondering how football's biggest tournament ended with the officials becoming the main characters. For me, that's one of the worst VAR decisions you'll ever see.”

This has been my major issue transitioning from aerospace to biomedical engineering.
In aerospace, EVERYTHING is up for debate. you wana put the wings backwards on a plane? fuck it, Sukhoi su-47. Oh you want intermeshing rotors? Kaman K-max it is.
In medicine, people flex their credentials (“doctor here 👋”) and rely on prior art:
“usually are not”
“standard practice”
“typically not”
EVERYTHING should be grounded in first principles and rigorous testing. Medicine is not like that, because of people like Dr. Kelly Morrison who look at a miraculous full body scanning technology that can see through you at unprecedented resolution- LITERALLY SCI-FI TECHNOLOGY- and can’t imagine using it for preventative means- simply because people haven’t done that before.
You could give a magic X-ray gun to some third world, medieval shaman or witch-doctor and the first thing they would say is “yo we should scan everyone and make sure nothing looks weird inside”.
How is this not the obvious response? I can’t see a future in which everyone isn’t getting MRI’d and having their images analyzed by AI.
The future of medicine IS PREVENTATIVE. i don’t give a fuck what any doctor or pharma company says about it. Their incentive structures have been broken for the last hundred years.
An ounce of prevention > a pound of cure. Please, for the love of God, think a LITTLE outside the box for once!
We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe.

@solarpapst@ProfRieck Achso, machen wir dann Gezeitenkraftwerke in der Elbe und Geothermie in der Vulkaneiffel? Sonst hinkt der Vergleich nämlich ganz schön
This is ugly but you should look at it to understand how many people with power in the open-source community feel inside.
Remember this the next time they lecture you on your own morality.
