That is not how your comment reads. It reads like you think every trait exists as an advantage and propagates because it is a benefit. Plenty of traits propagate as side effects, which is how their comment read to me.

I think the point the other guy is pointing out, is that good and bad evolutionary traits are often connected - or more helpfully stated, evolutionary traits can have both benefits and drawbacks which don't immediately seem related to the same trait.

It's quite possible that octopi sex dementia is just a drawback to another trait which is very beneficial, so the dementia was just a bad aspect of a good trait that propagated forward. This happens all the time in different animal biologies.

Not everything in evolution ends up having a point. So long as a problem does not impact the propagation of children it can end up moving forward to the next generation.

I would guess that if there is an Evolutionary reason, it's probably that octopi with this drive reproduced More than octopi that didn't.

"Universal enforcement" meaning what? On its face your proposal sounds fundamentally antithetical to what linux is. It's an open source environment, meaning literally anyone can create software and post it online. Are you wanting all directories to only accept flatpak? I don't think that would go over well.

The bottom line is that all crypto is fiat with gimmicks at the end of the day. The only value it has is the perceived value. While with the USD you have a government body proclaiming it's value, along with a vast network of businesses willing to honor its value with goods and services, with crypto you have a patchwork of individuals - mostly crypto hoarders - proclaiming it's value, with very few legitimate businesses actually accepting the currency.

If you have the spoons, you should watch this full breakdown. It covers both crypto and NFTs in-depth.

We should not show sympathy to those 'just following orders'. It is exactly that mindset which allows terrible things to be committed by normal individuals. It will not be forgiven in the future, and we should make no excuses for it now.

Opposums have a natural reflex of gnashing teeth and hissing when threatened, but they are very difficult to agitate enough to get them to bite. Additionally, they play dead if they become to stressed, so your bite window is pretty small.
