We do not have another substance as effective as opioids for treatment of acute and chronic pain. Yes, Americans deal with chronic health issues and chronic pain, partially attributed to CCP chemical lobbying efforts. They were over prescribed, that practice has changed due to regulatory effort, and lawsuits were brought and won against the worst offenders. Some think that the addiction crisis was amplified or exported from China to begin with as an act of covert warfare.

Shipping mass amounts of fentanyl precursors to organized crime agents to flood our streets is a whole different matter, surely you can see the difference? Street pills laced or cut with fentanyl KILL people. Addiction to street availability causes mass mental health issues and homelessness.

What about... doesn't make for debate in good faith.

The one not partnering with terrorists and cartels while shipping mass amounts of fentanyl and disruptors across the US border.

> One can arrest me, one has no jurisdiction

One does not care about your rights or jurisdiction and can do much worse covertly.

An adversarial government having mass access to user data and social behavior information is worse because they can use it to compromise and recruit individuals to do real damage. Although debatable, the NSA is supposed to have the intentions to protect us, not inflict chaos.

Bad faith magic wand waving, these arguments do not have substance. People/bots are on a bandwagon against change many have been calling for years for. Our treasury system NEEDS an overhaul and there are much bigger problems with this admin to make an issue out of.

We're talking about payment system code, not AI targeting for drones. Changes can be reverted, transactions can be stopped, payments can be made other ways.

The alarmist take is jumping to the conclusion that people will starve from efforts to improve the code behind this system. We can still print paper checks, probably with a simple script in the worst case.

If it's in COBOL you can probably count on one hand how many people have knowledge of the nuts and bolts of those systems and usually the new people talk to the old people.

People tend to forget that move fast and break things also includes move fast and fix things. No one will starve from this.

Having used a TP-Link ethernet over power device in the past, this is quite concerning. Most devices like this do not have an adequate replacement from domestic or allied manufacturers. Is there no government agency examining and reporting on these frequently purchased electronics?

The time, motives, and management were different, the essence of my point was that in today's world even a monopoly would cut research for profit.

This is not the mindset of monopolies, cutting research for the sake of short term profits is the mindset of Wallstreet's modern monopoly.

Studies more and more are showing that fasting is healthy for us but so many jump straight to eating disorder when they hear about someone not eating for extended periods. By your own research he seems to even be managing his body fat with logic; with the increase to 6%. More studies should be conducted but there's little profit incentive or people with the willpower for not eating so funding lags. Maybe we should embrace this kind of dedication rather than mock it?

Why even write this, by your own admission, cherry picking the negative and making assumptions about dishonesty?

Openai so open there's leaks.

Next will we find that there is an exchange of microbes between the brain and gut?
