I would say the Soviet Union and the Dutch VOC were both bad for the same core reason: they were an ideological extreme. Capitalism is only a good system, if it is localized and regulated. Otherwise a small group of people will come out on top and exploit everyone else. But the same holds for communism, as clearly seen in any nation attempting communism, you inevitably get a dictator who will exploit the people for his or her own good. The difference is that when you weaken communism by implementing only parts of it, like universal healthcare, or unemployment benefits, then we call it socialism.

Anything that requires structurally lying or hiding information against the interest of the people I talk with/to. Sales, politics, advertisement, etc.

If my knowledge about grenades from videogames is correct, you can just put a pin back in, if you kept the handle closed since pulling the pin.

Just chug a glass of olive oil.

This already exists if you know what to look for, and are willing to dive into a technical solution.

The bleep tone is usually a 1kHz sine wave (according to wikipedia). We can simply create a band pass filter that removes all 1kHz tones from the audio output of windows.

This does have side effects. Most notably that human speach, especially some female voices, are around this 1kHz frequency too. Since the tone was designed to mask voices, this makes sense. So I'm not sure if the side effects are worth it, but you can certainly try.

Creating such a filter on live audio can be done with something like this: https://github.com/AndreasArvidsson/WinDSP

Never tried it before myself, but the description matches exactly what you would need. You will want a PEQ filter with a high Q and significant negative gain around the 1000Hz frequency. I'm not an audio engineer, so I have no idea what values would work well. But if you want to play with those: a higher Q creates a narrower band around the 1000 to filter out.

That makes it too easy: just attach a ropeladder to the broom. That doesn't work if the broom stops levitating when you get off.

The flipside of this coin, is that a lot of people want to feel desired. Having someone who active craves you, can satisfy that desire.

I call this effect borrowing energy from the future.

I used to drink around 3 big mugs of coffee a day. Then I just stopped, cold turkey. Took a few months to get adjusted. But what surprised me, is that ALL tolerance to caffeine is gone. If I drink a cup of black tea, I will feel more focussed for a few hours, and less focussed a day or two afterwards.

I now only drink caffeine strategically. If I think todays problems are more important than the next two days problems, I drink some black tea or a cup of coffee. Otherwise I stick to decaf coffee, which fills the habit of drinking coffee perfectly.

Yeah, but in the bottom one, the people are packed infinitely dense, which will probably cause the train to derail, saving infinitely more people.

What about the Bob Marley printer? You know, the one that is always jamming.

Hungary has a very low income tax. Hence the high VAT. Denmark has both high VAT and income tax.
