  • I feel the logical conclusion is to just destroy all human created content entirely to avoid being exploited by corporations. But that may not be a reasonable solution.

    It would be like an artist refusing to record or perform their music for fear of someone else making money from it or copying the style.


  • I never blame the people asking for tips, I instead blame those giving them.

    I’ll list my Bitcoin address for anyone who would like to tip me! As I wrote out this whole comment for free, a tip seems quite reasonable here. If you disagree and choose not to tip me, that’s ok since tips are optional…but please don’t start rambling about how others should be tipping when you yourself did not tip me when provided the opportunity.

    Until the idiots all complained about it being ‘creepy’. Ever since the tracking completely continued, but no longer with any benefit to us.

    Great job idiots. Why people just don’t opt not to use features they find ‘creepy’ I’ll never understand. They are only satisfied if they bring it down for everyone.

    I was in a sauna at +95 Celsius for several minutes the other day. And within the same week I felt -35 Celsius cold on my bare skin.

    Both could kill me provided a bit more exposure, but they don’t instantly. Meanwhile, +4 Celsius can also cause death by hypothermia pretty easily in the right circumstances.

    So, while I like the idea, I think implementation will be hard as there is no clear death number on either end of the spectrum. Not to mention humidity, clothing, exertion, level of hydration, etc…

    The freezing point of water seems a hell of a lot more relevant to what humans consider ‘cold’…which is why it’s the zero. The boiling point of water isn’t the zero in Celsius after all.

    Also ‘cold’ as a concept is often represented with symbols related to frozen water such as snow flakes and icicles.
