Yes, but they were pointing out that this change doesn’t affect phones, meaning the other commenter didn’t read the article.

That’s a nice pipedream, but why would airlines move to this system? They seem perfectly happy with the current system where you have to pay to change anything.

And the game thing doesn’t make sense. If the game shuts down, where are you going to use your NFT? There’s a few crappy crypto games that have tried making it so items are transferable, but for larger games it sounds like a nightmare to implement.

NFTs are like crypto, a solution in search of a problem. I’ll be honest, I’m anti-crypto and NFTs, but if a valid usecase presented itself I’d be happy to be wrong. I just haven’t seen it yet.

Many of these immigrants are crossing other countries where they would be safe if they stopped there. Instead they choose to continue on to the US. At that point they are economic migrants, who are trying to skip the queue.

It’s the same here in Australia. Instead of stopping in a safe country in SEA, they make dangerous boat voyages because they believe they’ll be better off financially. We turn those boats around or keep them offshore, where at anytime they could go somewhere other than Australia but they don’t want to because they want to try and seek welfare here.

I have no sympathy for them. Let in the people who apply properly to come here. Not those who try to sneak in.

Lmao do you actually believe this?

Ugh, yeh I hate judgemental pharmacists. I take a couple of controlled substances, but I’ve found a pharmacy nearby where they are super nice and happy to have my business. Now my whole family goes there for all our pharmacy needs, even if the shitty chain discount place might be a little cheaper.

Basically every hexbear comment is disruptive and designed to provoke drama. They are not participating in good faith, and I suspect they coordinate to boost their fringe political views.

I think it’s perfectly fine to report them if I suspect that.

Are you a mod?

I suspect they are coordinating to boost their comments in other communities/instances. Their fringe political views are always highly upvoted, I just find it suspicious. Many places have rules against brigading, so where I suspect it I will report it.

Maybe I’m wrong, maybe I’m right. But I still think it’s good to communicate to the mods/admins that a lot of users do not like hexbear because they are disruptive in every community they visit.

I agree with you, but I think both of us about to be downvoted by these cheapskates lol

People say negative things about that? That’s crazy, people are judgmental about stupid shit.

Oh, so you understand how everyone else feels about you then.

As if you come and participate in good faith anyway.

Are you kidding? They unironically are fans of Stalin and other left wing ideologues. I have never seen a hexbear user who was anything but left wing.

Report every hexbear comment and let the mods know how you feel. Should send the message.

Lol I would bet the majority of that crap is from just normal people.

The article isn’t about what you think.

I think messaging is more likely to see progress made on this front. I don’t see regulations forcing Spotify to allow for their personalization mechanisms to be transferable and that doesn’t really make sense why they should have to, while messaging I can see happen even if only due to popular demand.

He failed to act on the AIDS epidemic until it was too late.

There is a middle ground. The FDA shouldn’t have the power to ban a product from the market. They should be able to publish their recommendations, however, and people who trust them can choose to follow those recommendations. Others should be free to publish their own recommendations, and some people will choose to follow those instead.

That’s putting too much responsibility on the average person, who doesn’t have the time to become educated enough in biology and pharmacology to understand what every potentially harmful product may do to them. What if they never even hear the FDA recommendation?

Also, though you’d like to think this would only harm the individual in question who purchases a harmful product, there are many ways innocent third parties could be harmed through this. Teratogens are just one example.

This kind of laissez-faire attitude just doesn’t work in the real world. There’s a reason we ban overtly harmful substances.

As a CSA survivor, who had images taken of me while I was abused… Fuck you.

People wanting to possess it is exactly what encourages people to produce the material. If you let people possess it with no consequences you will let the demand shoot up and basic economics should tell you what happens next with the supply part.

That is disgusting. Seriously. You should feel ashamed of yourself.

So you made the same point they did and added nothing.
