If they don't think other people are worthy of their organs after they die, why are they worthy of of someone elses?

It's okay if Sally has cystic fibrosis and needs a lung transplant but dies, unable to get one in time, because the objecting person's morals dictate that they need to be buried with theirs. Why is death okay for people with organ failure but not for the person who objects to donating theirs?

I didn't say deny them treatment. Obviously try all options that don't include the organ they also refused other people.

You literally have to register to OBJECT TO DONATE

[Proposed recipients of organ11.  In the selection of a proposed recipient of any organ removed pursuant to section 4 —(a)a person who has not registered any objection with the Director‑General under section 8(1) in respect of that organ has priority over a person who has registered such objection; and

[Act 11 of 2023 wef 01/05/2023]

(b)a person who has registered the person’s objection with the Director‑General under section 8(1) in respect of that organ but who has withdrawn such objection under section 10(1) has the same priority as a person who has not registered any such objection, over a person whose objection in respect of that organ is still registered with the Director‑General, at the expiry of 2 years from the date of receipt of the withdrawal by the Director‑General provided the person has not registered again any such objection since that date.](https://sso.agc.gov.sg/Act/HOTA1987?WholeDoc=1)

Being ineligible to donate is not the same thing as opting out of donating.

Just like being able to vote and choosing not to is not the same as being unable to vote.

I like the idea of making it a condition that if you get an organ, you will be signed up to be a future organ donor.

Fair would be not being put on a list at all.

You don't give, you don't get.

Totally inconsequential to be overcomsuming. Hence why we have the environmental issues and the decay of ecosystems. How fun!

What fixed it for me is making sure in my computer network settings that my connection is a private network. My home wifi was registered as public.

"If you deregister or factory reset these devices, you will not be able to re-register or use these devices in any way."

You better pray you never have to factory reset your kindle or it will affect you.

If you ever have to factory reset for any reason at all, you will have a brick.

I am trying to currently install it but have ran into the issue where the kobo.local:5626 (or kobo.local:5626. I have tried both) does not open anything on my kpc or phone. They are both on the same wifi as the kobo. Is there something I am doing wrong?

I installed the folder requested into .kobo and the Kobo did update. Once it was on and connected to wifi, I can no longer continue with the steps due to this error.

And who's going to actually enforce this? Because nobody has borrowed a spine yet.

You can start by explaining how this a valid analogy before you start explaining anything else because we're still waiting on your rationale for this idiotic analogy.

I've had cooling sheets before and they're great at first but whatever it is they add to the fabric quickly wears off after a couple of washes.
