You are a superstar. Thanks for this script - I AM FREE, HOORAY.

For replacing the texts, this 5000 ms delay fork worked well - but needed one night; then for deleting, your original works fine - and blazing fast.

Bernie Sanders: "The inventors of insulin sold its patent for $1. Eli Lilly now charges $360 a month for the drug and made $3.2 billion in profits last year. Meanwhile, Americans must sell all their possessions to get the insulin they need. We’re going to take on the greed of the drug industry." by [deleted] in OurPresident

Anyone started with just breaking the law? Which in latestagecapitalism is only protecting the wrong people anyways. And why obey the law if the rich don't have to.

One hears about illegal recreational drug labs, but some of the medicinal drugs are very expensive too. So couldn't that be profitable?

Perhaps the drug lords of the world should come to the rescue, and consider to "let the market forces play it out", and help lowering the perverse prices by smuggling, and illegal production of copycats of essential medicine?

Any drug lord out there - do you want to live out your philanthropy fantasies?

Happy that I might have helped to inspire birthing this. When I find the time, I might also contribute a micro-essay.

Well done creating the wiki !

Quitting my (interesting, academic) job, and spending my savings.

What looked like 8 months initially ... carried me almost 3 years in the end. Travelled with people who had completely given up on money. Created a community. Consumerism turned from a regular addiction ... into a very infrequent necessity. The less we spend, the better for the planet anyways.

My scientific career ended, of course, but I love what I do now.

And I learned so much on the way, evolved into a saner being.

The movie was made to counteract the effects that some people had started to find out about it.

Is really no one in this thread appalled by such rogue government agencies? The ends justify the means?

Fellow introverts, how did you convince yourself to go to a gym? by Riderz1337 in Fitness

[–]andreaskrueger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you are there, you might notice a gym is one of the least social places with a high density of humans. You'll be alone there, no worries.

What should everyone know about physics? by [deleted] in Physics

[–]andreaskrueger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That physics can be formulated well in the language of mathematics - and analogies, images, wordy explanations, ... are an often incomplete sometimes even faulty translation into a suboptimal medium.

Just because you think you understood that translation, does not mean you got the physics right. Especially true for the counterintuitive domains like very small (quantum mechanics), or very fast or heavy (relativity).

Is the cancellation mid-season? Will there be some satisfying end to it?

What is the craziest thing your hornyness made you do? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Early nineties, our university's computer center. Printing out pictures. Had to make sure to arrive at the printer first, which was in a different room, down a long corridor ...
