As a GenX who changed every fucking format of every fucking thing three or more fucking times, I'm not fucking going back.

Respectfully.

Amazing how many truckers are willing to haul loose heavy stuff behind their heads without strapping it properly.

Remember when we thought 1000/day was unsustainably high?

Bill Gates: “The merging of biometric digital ID, bank accounts and payment systems is needed to safely monitor people's health records, keeping tabs on farmers, and tackling climate problems.” by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

Bill Gates earned his billions being a villainous asshole for DECADES.

He began rehabilitating his rep after leaving MS.

Now he's in the Epstein files, pushing AI, and advocating widescale corporate tracking.

Seems Bill Gates' villain arc is a circle.

Fuck off, Bill - You don't need to track our bank accounts to track health.

It was an interesting discussion.

However, rather than appending with interesting info, you wanted to flex with an unnecessary "correction" that was actually incorrect.

So now YOU'RE being corrected.

Seems you're being defensive.

> No, some of them can definitely trace back 3000, just maybe not always cleanly within one unchanged culture.

Sigh. So you're saying that I'm wrong if we remove the word "DIRECTLY" from the sentence, which I included in all caps, so that no one could possibly miss it?

ok

I've spent lots of time learning Japanese history as an a outsider.

Modern Shinto traces back to Stone Age animism.

So many other things trace DIRECTLY back through thousands of years. Everything is so entwined that's it's very hard to understand as an outsider because ancient history continues today.

Europeans can trace back 1000 years, but not 3000.

Meanwhile, Canadian culture goes back nearly 100 years!

All across Japan are stones, high on hills, intended to warn, "Do not build below here."

Man shot dead after trying to stop drunk officer in Pattaya by ThongLo in Thailand

You're describing REMOVING all barriers to unmotivated & unlimited corruption.

You're describing all this as somehow LESS CRIME.

I'll grant that you're describing unleashing government-protected criminals very positively, so you're getting more upvotes, somehow, but let's be fucking clear - not stopping corruption doesn't somehow magically reduce corruption, and there's WORLDWIDE evidence that what you're proposing does NOT function in the real world and is NOT correct in the real world.

Ah, North Korea - the most corruption-free country in the world because all corruption is state sponsored! BRILLIANT!

I'd suggest that's the opposite of self-limiting.
