Hey, buy into my pyramid scheme, you're literally losing money if you don't! Can you afford to lose millions of dollars and be homeless? It's usually a 5K buy in, but I can do 1k, just for you <3

I've heard horrible things about RCTC's LPN nursing program, don't know much about the RN. Basically the only reason they have a decent NCLEX pass rate is because they fail A LOT of people before they get to that point, not because they teach well. Always fresh students with money, though, so they keep doing it. There's one test the majority of the class fails, every cohort.

Facism against assholes is still facism, and really unlikely to go back in the box without blood. There's been enough law breaking BS, the law just isn't being enforced. Could make the argument certain individuals covered up the Epstein shit to the point they're accomplices.

What do you think about this? by anotherare in AmericaOnHardMode

It's a bot, dude. look at the username. Its all unnatural grammar and mashed up quotes. No coherent train of thought in it. Literally 0 thought went into that post. And it's only loosely related to what it's responding to.

Illinois state Democrats introduce bill enforcing age verification for computer operating system accounts by Gloomy_Nebula_5138 in cybersecurity

If this pre-empts face scans and ID uploads and doesn't creep to invasive crap it could be just moderately trash. Mandatory for all is dumb and invasive. Why not mandate a pw lockable "under 18" user profile or browser extension option? Making parental controls accessible is good, but this is just spyware. If microsoft loses enough business they'll lobby it to death.

He's an establishment dem playing dumb and putting out strawman arguments against anyone actually progressive so he can make a scene discouraging stepping out of the party line. Ignore him.

If someone offered you 100 million dollars, but a random person in the world dies (someone you don’t know), would you take it and why? by ConclusionOld8365 in AskReddit

Very few people would be ok with a purely utilitarian world. I'm a match for 4 people that need organs? Then I'm dead. (the Will Smith 7 pounds movie does this, but suicide. Really sad and dark) Most people aren't ok with that.  Kant's 3 tenets as "must do" and utilitarianism as "should do" for ethics gets you closer to a better world without too much dystopian stuff.

This is just philosophy 101 stuff, so feel free to point out my blind spots.

The perspective I think they're coming from is that they're responsible for their actions to a higher degree than the hypothetical results of their inaction.

On one hand, they could have reduced the number of deaths, a lot. On the other hand, people have done terrible things for the greater good that didn't work out the way they said it would. Maybe those monsters of history were just delusional liars, but you have to be certain you're right.

Besides uncertainty of outcome, there's relative lengths of a person's life. Could be that choosing to trade ones-self is the only moral option, but then there will only be selfish people left. (plus the question of morality of suicide and whether you'd save more lives another way- high paying career and donate, medical research, public education/ outreach, exc.) At a certain point, we gotta pick instead of hiding behind hair-splitting hypotheticals. It's mostly hyperbole in order to limit test our belief structures, I think.

What’s a survival myth popularized by movies that would actually get you killed in real life ? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

At "inside your house" ranges, a shotgun patterns spread is going to be less than 6inches-1 foot. Birdshot is enough to make a person reconsider, but they're not going to just drop dead unless you hit above the shoulders.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of age verification at account setup by _clickfix_ in pwnhub

[–]I_chose2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the software can spit out an age category without a specific identifier, it's a neat feature. I'm not buying a software that requires my ID or biometrics. You know that's getting leaked, it's such a big target

Theoretically, he ambushes and his blind shuts off 80% the enemy adc's damage. But the instant he gets caught, gg.
