"We're not tasked with providing clean affordable drinking water. We can't be there. We're in business."

"We're not tasked with preventing food poisoning or affordable healthy food. We can't be there. We're in business."

What other examples can we make where "business" is an excuse for acting in a sociopathic way?

Notice that they never state she was an alcoholic. They also never atate she was a "high level" alcohol user. Just that she was an alcohol user.

You can make your own assumptions about her alcohol use, but in general these rules would also excluse a "normal" alcohol user with a congenital liver failure...

In Canada, drinking more than 3 drinks per week is medically considered "high alcohol use" for a woman... (6 for a man). This limit keeps getting lower year after year

If this can prevent you from getting organ transplants, then it encourages lying to your medical doctor about your current habits... That lady was not considered alcoholic, she just used alcohol in greater amount than the limit considered acceptable by doctors.

Latest stats show that almost 4 out of 5 people has exceeds that limit at some point in their life. This woman died only because she was honest with her doctor about her alcohol use. (Note that the article says her partner was a compatible donor but the system refused to accept him because she used alcohol. It's not about lacking donors.)

We should remove tariffs for European cars as well. Why can't I buy a small 4wd in Canada, when they have them all over?

Although I never took the time to check myself, I heard multiple reports about how streaming music has crappy dynamic range, and that the same song on CD or ripped vinyl always has much better range.

It would be my main reason to use the scenes...

I don't know about unbound so I can't really compare... OpenNic is not run by for-profit corporations, which I think is a good thing.

Opennic should be the default DNS of everybody!

Could they use a crawler with visual inspection? It's not as good as ultrasound because it will only see surface breaking stuff if it's big enough... But it's still better than no inspection at all, right?
