Because most of the time, the reveal immediately results in a magical resolution of decades of behavioral issues stemming from the trauma.

Which never happens in real life. A reveal is a huge step in the healing process but it doesn’t mean the issue goes away. Maybe we cope better, maybe we regress maybe we relapse. But its seldom the clean outcome in the movies.

How does automation solve the shortage of healthcare workers or trades people?

This is the longest piece of horseshit I’ve seen all week.

There is absolutely such a thing as too small a workforce. Higher prices for labor eventually means higher prices for goods. Until it all breaks down because you don’t have enough working people for a functional society.

Who takes care of the elderly or works essential jobs like healthcare? There are maximum ratios for emergency care nurses to patients. Even if you tripled their pay its not going to budge that ratio one bit.

Well, you’re not going to believe this but there are temporary marriage contracts available that can be as short as an hour.

Why do people need an hour long marriage? Beats me…

Is that a new song from PSY?

Go search up fighters like rampage Jackson or Kevin Randleman who regularly out muscled the very best grapplers, doing things like powerbombing their way out of submissions, then think how much smaller they are than a gorilla. Grappler is just as dead as a Boxer, Muay Thai fighter, or Karateka.

Definitely looks more like a Pippin to me…

Call my name and save me from the dark

True story. Am a controls engineer. I program stuff like the production processes for pharmaceuticals, F&B, etc.

I come from a time where most games were single player you couldn’t pay to win. Not all games had cheat codes.

What we did have were memory/hex editors, game files, .ini stuff.

With what little instructions you could find online, you had to dig around and figure out where to find stuff and how to edit them so you got unlimited gold or super powerful equipment, etc and not crash the game at the same time.

Little did I know, this built my foundations for controls programming and troubleshooting. There are so many parallels like using memory editors is so similar to our debugging software where we want to find individual parameters that aren’t behaving or communicating properly.

I’m interested to know how you believe the elderly will be cared for? Let’s assume for a moment they have no issues financially supporting the elderly, but physically who is supposed to care for them? Who will make up the nurses, doctors and caretakers now that their population pyramid looks like a chicken drumstick?

Lemmy is a stupid god awful name.

The first result you get on google is a dead singer. Every other search you will have him on the front page instead of what you’re trying to find. Contrast this to searching for something from reddit.

I can’t understand why every other fediverse name is so stupid as to be off putting to the average user.

No.

Vax makes autist. Entire 4chan is autist. Therefore vax causes 4chan. QED

Where was Gondor when the Westwood fell?

Remember when everyone boycotted apple because of the horrendous conditions at Foxconn? Or people boycotting Lithium batteries because of slave like conditions in African mines? Remember?! Oh wait. No one gave a shit as long as they got their consumer products.

Note: This is NOT whataboutism. This is just a reminder that consumers only care if it doesn’t seriously inconvenience them. Otherwise they always turn a blind eye.

In this case it inadvertently kept people alive

Minor addition:

In Europe, to make drinks like beer you had to boil the mash, which unknown to them sterilized the water, which made beer generally safe to drink.

In east asia, as you mentioned tea was a common drink. But before that there were numerous herbal remedies that had to be boiled and served hot as well. People who drank the herbal remedies got better (mainly because hydration and clean drinking water are important factors for well being). Other than attributing the recovery to just the herbs, they also attributed it to the temperature.

So lacking tea or herbal drinks, the ancient chinese believed drinking hot water was somehow beneficial to the body. Add that to the fact that many who drank cold untreated water fell sick, you can easily see how the myth developed.

Another side note. Hot water is expensive (fuel wise) so drinking hot water was a sign your family was comparatively well to do and something a lot of villagers emulated in an attempt to show that the family was well off.
