If only they did that for Mickey Mouse in the States instead of screwing up copyright for everyone.

Then how do you get non-horrible Internet access? They don't run fiber out there. They barely even run cell service out there.

Reddit: “Is [lack of space in your tiny apartment] a problem for literally anyone cause it sounds made up on the spot.”
Also Reddit: “Fuck cars! Fuck houses! Everyone except the rich should live in high-density housing, own nothing, walk to work, and be happy about it!”

That's just pre-existing conditions with extra steps, which in the US is already illegal.

Why is there so little money going into it? Chronic pain isn't exactly an uncommon problem; that's why Purdue made so much money selling a drug for it.

That's easy to say when you're not in constant pain.

Reply to comment by Steel_Wolf_89 in TIL after a seizure left him paralyzed except for his left eyelid, Jean-Dominique Bauby (1952-1997) wrote the bestselling book "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" by blinking to select each letter as an assistant recited the alphabet to him. by chumloadio
About the only thing I'd be blinking is some variation of “kill me”.
It is cruel beyond words to keep people in that state alive. If ever there was a situation where euthanasia is clearly the right thing to do, that would be it.

No. It's confined to this solar system and there aren't any other inhabited planets in it.

The rich chow down on steaks while the rest of us will be forced to eat bugs like in a dystopian novel, and this meets with your approval.
You are not doing my faith in humanity any favors.

No matter how fancy the technology, it's still rich people trying to make poor people eat bugs. Goodness knows the rich aren't going to eat this stuff.

It's not. This is dystopian and depressing. I came here to see the opposite of this sort of thing.
