FYI, cremation can still be expensive. If you are serious about spending the least amount of money possible, consider telling your family you’d like to be donated to science. But, do be aware, there can be some controversial things under the umbrella of “donated for science”, and they’d have no control over what.

I pay for premium, haven’t seen an ad in years.

Wow that has not been my experience thankfully, but I can definitely understand being upset by that, especially the fold stuff.

I advocate for voting with your wallet.

I didn’t mind the mobile UI update, it had some kinks at first that I mostly think have been worked out. So some of these kinds of things will just be difference of taste.

What decisions have impacted your ability to use the service? I’m not keen on all of the choices they’ve made, but they also don’t negatively impact the way that discord serves me.

This will be an unpopular opinion here, but Discord is worth paying for and I do. Obviously, everyone’s usage will differ, but I use it for video and voice chat for several hours a week and I can count on one hand the number of hours that have been disrupted by discord service outage. That kind of value is worth paying for imho.

Why exactly did a telecom company need SSNs anyway?

Edited to add, this was a rhetorical question and more a comment on the awful series of systems in the USA that leads a SSN to be used by telecom companies.

This study demonstrates, for the first time, the successful integration of cyanate into a perovskite solar cell to develop a cutting-edge triple-junction perovskite/Si tandem solar cell,proving cyanates to be viable substitute for halides in perovskite-based solar cells.

Ah yes, I recognized a few of those words.

The article is about the Saudi government killing lots of people. Arguably, for ridiculous crimes.

You made a comment playing down the seriousness of capital punishment.

Then tried to cop out by saying you weren’t defending Saudi royals.

Help me understand, what exactly was your point, then?

The remaining 166 males were executed for crimes relating to drug smuggling, weapon possession, activism, illegal exit from the country

Definitely inexcusable crimes solvable only by capital punishment.

Isn’t IQ kinda bullshit, anyway?

4k @ 120, but 5k @ 240? How does that work?

Joke is sort of ruined by explaining it.

Of course, if you’re deciding to not go one year because on that year it will be overcrowded, that implies that on that one year they are receiving a lot more tourism than typical.

Don’t be ridiculous. When you warp the actual truth, it’s easy to tell a story that makes the cops look bad. It’s always the same with you propagandists.

The acorn did not fall on “the ground”. The acorn fell onto the roof of his squad car. This is an important detail because the speed and angle at which the acorn would have hit the metal of the car perfectly replicated the sound of a previously searched and handcuffed criminal in his back seat freeing himself, locating his expertly hidden firearm, and firing it through glass at the officer.

Really, it’s a mistake that any reasonable, level headed person could make.

Well, this will obviously be a hot take, but I didn’t leave reddit because I hated the comment culture. It was actually a bit endearing to me.

Nothing. We’ve done nothing for decades now.

Oh don’t do that, part of the devastation of climate change is more extremes and bigger swings.

I would consider not murdering and raping to be nicer than murdering and raping, yes. Do you not?

Isn’t there no evidence of that?
