I think their point was that in a way, patents are supposed to be more equitable because it allows the inventor to meet their basic needs by being the one to invent the patent.

There’s also the argument that while innovation skyrockets after a parent opens up, there would be less incentive to invent new things if Walmart could just copy it for cheaper the day after you show how you make it.

Or people would be super secretive with instructions for how to make their products that innovations could die with their creators since they have no incentive to release it.

Y’all ever heard of sushi? Pickled is overkill.

Saw a funny continuation where the dogs first wish is for them to swap bodies and his second wish is that the person couldn’t talk.

Yeah smash destroys the hands of 30 years olds in the scene.

What I’m looking forward to in retirement is finally cracking into games like Dwarf Fortress, Factorio, and Caves of Qud

It’s shell or palm tree for me

By my limited understanding that might be feasible right now in utero, which obviously is not exactly what we want.

I think that maybe in the future we could change someone’s sex when they’re older. Honestly I think it’s maybe just the matter of research on this not being focused on genetic changes after the womb.

Made more sense back in the day when you didnt have TV or anything to do for most of every day.

What’s sad is that this is a consequence not just of this admins shittiness but of a long enshittification of our government.

Not only do government jobs pay a mediocre salary until you get really really far in the org, a fact that only gets worse as the idea of a middle class lifestyle gets gutted, but for decades now, working a government job has become less and less prestigious. It used to be that there were always plenty of loonies who found pride in being a “public servant” and thought the best place to use their genius was in government.

Now, as we see, there’s no one in these positions with even cursory knowledge of how these programs work.

And there’s definitely no millennials or zoomers fresh out of tech school that would debase themselves to working in government who would be able see these flaws in two seconds.

Because in real life they would have to have a walkie talkie moth on the moon and that takes too long duh.

Fun fact: moths don’t actually fly towards flames/lights. They have an instinct to orient their backs towards the light, presumably so that they can fly parallel to the moon at night which keeps them parallel to the ground.

They don’t fly into lights intentionally, instead they keep re-orienting their back to it in a tighter and tighter spiral until they hit it.

What they don’t mention here is that these guys get up at 6:00 AM, have lunch at 7 and leave at 8

Unfortunately, Elon Musk almost certainly wrote this tweet not knowing or being too high to realize that it was slander (or libel?) and if anything happens it will probably be Elon getting roasted in court.

Still cool to have Elon get humiliated but Trump is the one who deserves justice handed to him for his ties to Epstein.

And how do you prove that you’ve signed the liability waivers?

2025 homophobia: Prith

That’s the key, you don’t tell the company you’re working for that you only plan to stay for a year or two. After you’ve done it twice maybe your resume will start to show a pattern, but at that point you’ve been doing this for 4-6 years, and I can think of plenty of lies to tell corporate that will make for a good excuse.

As for making more, your progress will definitely be stymied by taking breaks, but you’re not taking breaks in order to advance your career. It’s just a difference in life goals, clearly you value climbing a corporate ladder to increase your salary. Besides, it’s well documented that changing employers is one of the best ways to increase your salary so if your goal is making more money you would want to change jobs every couple of years no matter what.

Yes, fear is a major factor for why people don’t do risky things for potential rewards.

As for having a spouse and children or a pre-existing medical condition, you’re correct that only a certain portion of the population is able to do this. We already cut it down to people with something like a STEM degree that are able to do this.

I mean almost anyone with a stem education is able to do this.

Before you say: “buh have you seen the job market?”

The point of the plan isn’t to get stinking rich off of each 1-2 year stint, it’s to make just enough money that you can travel around and reset to nearly 0 after not working for a few months to a year

It’s a catch 22. Nobody wants the cum of the celebrities that would do it and no celebrity who people want the cum from would do it.
