They could probably use sand

Same rules as Reddit apply here: know your target audience.

I disagree. The deaths can be directly observed and also allow for post-mortem examination. They are not some sort of hypothetical conjecture.

It would also be patently ridiculous to suggest that poison is effective, but only the ones that cause painful death.

Furthermore, presentation matters. OP presented it as “definitely” being a horrible death with details that would support this. Follow-up comment was straight-up presented as conjecture with nothing to support it. If they aren’t confident in their own point, then why should I be?

My point stands. Nice try though.

Fairly quick, when someone just looks to be arguing in bad faith rather than furthering a discussion. I don’t have much patience for bullshit.

The flipside is that I will generally unblock after a month or so unless they made my permanent block list (which is much less common).

Considering that I don’t see any reason for this to be the case, I’m not going to presume that without some supporting evidence.

The “positives” don’t usually translate to any sort of benefit for the average person. Yes, I am aware that there are exceptions to this.

I have become very cynical of tech over the past several years and am strongly opposed to any sort of space colonization.

“the unthinkable”

Hyperbole much?

It’s been overshadowed by other current events. Quite a shame, really

If you know that the rat poison you use causes a horrible death, why not do some research and pick a better formula or a different type of trap?

Haven’t listened to the radio in about 15 years.

Drive to work in the morning would piss me off. Stop the jibber jabber and play some music already!

If I had to guess, I would point to 2 reasons:

• better frontal collision dynamics due to not having an engine up front

• generally lower front ends since aerodynamics is more important to EVs

Aren’t EVs already safer than gas cars?

Shitty life pro tip

If you only have W-2s it is easy. But there are lots of other things that can make it a mess. If you have a business, do stock trading, use crypto, or itemize (less common now), then it can take a fair bit of time.

I remember growing up my parents would procrastinate and then crunch to get them done on 4/15. It seemed like they did this every damn year.

Me? I usually do end of February or maybe the beginning of March. Takes a bit to get all my documentation, so no point in dealing with it much before that.

Start at either or slower pace or shorter time and gradually increase pace and/or intensity.

7-Zip, Steam, Firefox

That would be true of any technology. Technology doesn’t have agency; my comment is clearly directed at corpos that are pushing it.

Why would this new cool technology should be an exception?

I very often do push back against things that they try to force down everyone’s throat. AI is not exceptional in this regard.
