No. The key looks strange and I hab to reread it a few times. I’m also quite certain I have seen the same joke before in a different comic

The ghost is sad because it locked itself out/forgot the key inside. Second ghost shows up an tells them to just warp through because they are ghosts. But instead of being happy they are inside and never needed the key, they try to move the key outside so they can unlock the door to get inside.

It will be a long time and a lot of innovations in material science until you can implant a quantum computer into a person. So much that I am not sure it is even possible (or practical)

That is like saying a 12 year old should be able to be healed from being quadriplegic because they are still growing. Some medical conditions are for live (at our current medical knowledge) and it doesn’t matter if they are “physical” or “mental”.

That’s the difference between a stew and a soup where everything had been puréed

Then OP has to die in international waters. And I think ships usually count as part of the country they are registered in. So if you die on a cruise ship it still counts like dieing in that ships owner country. And its not trivial to move a corpse out of a country, there are laws about that. So the country they plan to die in very mutch matters.

And the brain didn’t even know it was naming itself.

The ancient Egyptians removed the brain before mummification because they considerd it to be basically useless. Later associations between motor control of muscles and the brain were discovered but it wasn’t until the development of modern neuroscience that the brain was considered to be the seat of awareness, self and intelligence.

The post office knows who you are sending letters to. They have to know because they have to deliver it. They do not know the content of the letter. They also dont know if the letter will be passed along by the receiver to a different destination.

Your ISP knows you are sending traffic to a VPN but not where they are sending it to. The VPN knows where you are sending traffic to but not the content of that traffic. So if you browse a website that only serves pirated content, then they knows you are consuming pirated media but not which media.

If the law requires the VPN to report any and all traffic to blacklisted sights then a “no logs policy” would breach that law.

However to make this law work, Italy would have to ban all VPNs and http proxy services outside of Italy. Italy would have to force pretty mutch the whole world to follow this law for it to work.

What happens if you run a tiny server on AWS in the USA to proxy your private traffic. Unless AWS USA is watching all traffic to see if it complies with Italian law there is no way to enforce it.

But only if they are artificially bred. If hunted wild, it has an incredibly positive impact. They are a invasive species and are harmful to any ecosystem they were introduced to.

Almost all predator animals have a territory and they will fight for that territory to keep others out. Chimpanzees and other great apes have clan wars over territory. And they have social hierarchies where some get more food than others.

There is a 100% chance early humans were fighting each other long before the invention of agriculture.

They actually do. To avoid infinite loops. If a URL redirects to the identical URL for more than ~5 times most browsers will refuse to load and show an error instead.

That’s why sites like this will generate new URLs with the same content.

Are you actually arguing exploitation is necessary? That any system treating all people fairly will result in everybody starving?

Feel free to let others exploit you, I will keep trying for the fair system

Since no arena is specified I assume it to be the only logical place.

In space! (the winner is brought back to their natural habitat)

Everything else would be unfair to at least one of the parties.

I think the ants would outlast all the animals and insects. They might freeze solid and (some) might survive the unfreezing after the figh. Or they could form a giant ball where the ones in the middle survive. And who cares if 19kg die.

On the other hand, the oak would probalby last weeks and could sprout new leaves and roots again if given proper treatment back on earth.

So … GO TREE!

They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics.

I said, I had a theoretical degree in physics.

Yes but “the biggest problem” is most certainly not the lack of insurance for the daughter. Its a untrained child playing with the live of a patient.

If somemebody drills a hole into my skull I dont give a shit about their insurance.

Insurance protects them not me. This is absolutely about the doctor putting the patient into a huge unnecessary risk without the patients consent.

Who defines “good hands”?

How do you assure the dictator stays good (corruption, dementia, general personality shift)?

What happens if the dictator is no longer good (died, see above, the world has changed and the dictator can not adapt)?

Sure the dictator can assign ministers for topics outside of their skillset and similar and a head physician to determine when a replacement is needed due to health reasons etc, but a dictatorship is always unnacountable. What if the physician coludes with the vice-dictator to declare the dictator unfit? What if the dictator is actually unfit but accuses the physician of colusion? It has no safety checks against its rulers other than revolution and coup.

Democracy has flaws but so does dictatorship and they are not limited to “what if dictator evil”

There are many breeds of cattle. Some which are on their own for most of the year. I am sure with some carefully selection (and maybe a few generations of crossbreeding) there could be viable breeds for reintroduction to most biomes which historically had wild cows
