Galatians4_16··on Can rotation solve the Hubble Puzzle?
>If the universe is in fact inside of a black hole of a different universe

The observation could also be due to an area of relatively high density inside an area of relatively no density.

Galatians4_16··on France's new high-speed train has Americans asking: Why can't we have that?
You can ask the Wallstreet Apes for a detailed explanation, but it's a combination of corrupted government real estate acquisition, development, a pinch of nepotism to change ownership, and a lot of money laundering.
Galatians4_16··on Sweetener saccharin shows surprise power against antibiotic resistance
> These days, about the only liquid you can consume without controversy is water.

Tapwater, or artesian well water?

Magnitically left-spun water, or ionically charged crystal-dipped water?

Hermetically sealed water, or Gnostically gestated water?

Distilled or deionated?

Choose wisely.

The Canadian Armed Forces, and he always supported a free Palestine. But your point still stands.

> I'm much for free speech, but more in the sense that we should be able to discuss policy/politics/critique/bitch/bash/religions/etc. Not so we can make terror plans, defame, harass, bully

The recent past should tell you that a lot of what some would call legitimate critique/bitch/bash etc. others would call harass/bully/violence –to also include not speaking about it at all.

So in the interest of consistency, and publicity, I'd prefer to let the bigots of the world speak, and out themselves as bigots, so that we may then publicly speak and make fun of them for being bigots. The same goes for corporations.

Galatians4_16··on Brazil's government-run payments system has become dominant

> Not sure what happened to your cousin... But I'm curious now. Care to share?

My cousin served in the Armed Forces "to protect your freedom" (his words). The fact that he died during training maneuvers, does not detract from that.

> We should outright forbid [advertising] in public space. IHMO.

My cousin died to protect your right to say this. Ads are speech too.

Galatians4_16··on Brazil's government-run payments system has become dominant
Despite a global move towards a cashless society, 54% of Brazilians now opt for cash withdrawals.¹

2024 has seen a surprising reversal, as cash usage makes an unexpected comeback, defying predictions that the world was moving toward a cashless society. With rising cybersecurity threats, concerns over financial privacy, and economic instability, consumers and businesses are increasingly turning back to physical currency as a preferred transaction method.²

Galatians4_16··on America Is Missing The New Labor Economy – Robotics Part 1
Money ≠ Wealth. Currency ≠ Money.

As long as we use inflationary currency, the wealth gap will widen.

If people could save money without worrying about deminishing of its' value, the gap will mend itself to natural levels, along skill/merit lines, as opposed to family inheritance/connections. Then they could also aquire wealth without needing to pawn it off to keep paying the bills.
