Next question is what happened that made one 'a piece of shit beforehand'.

From a philosophical perspective, I find it quite difficult to measure a person's evilness objectively.

Assuming a person is born evil due to their genetic material, is it then actually their fault? Shouldn't that be considered rather as a medical condition?

Assuming a person is not born evil, but they turned evil due to outer influencing factors (parents, society, economic situation, luck, bad luck...), is it then actually their fault? Or are the outer factors the ones to blame in such a case?

I agree to the 'the crack was always there' statement. But personally I think that all of us humans naturally have this crack. Given the right parameters, this crack can heal to a level where it's barely notable. But under less optimal conditions I guess more or less every human can turn (be turned) into a monster.

In terms of billionaires my opinion is that a) we should implement measures to avoid them in the first place and b) find ways to take away their power.

But other than that I would prefer a way to heal their (often abnormal) crack and try to make them again valuable members of society again. Revenge and punishment (especially death penalty) should never be the focus of corrective measures, no matter the crime or misdemeanour.

I think the unfortunate truth is that many non-evil people would be just as evil if given the opportunity. Or to frame it slightly different: I believe that too much money and/or power is what turns most people evil over time.

The Lemmy picture is blue/black for me while Wikipedia is white/gold. Is it the same picture? Or is because Lemmy fully supports dark mode while my browser doesn't?

It's still there, give it another go. ;)

Zip disks were originally launched with capacities of 100 MB, then 250 MB, and finally 750 MB.

Congrats, you win! 🥳

Maybe it's a super disk LS-240. They were up 240 MB.

You should add the local weather forecast, a random fun fact and the canteen menu of the day to the key to make it more interesting to read.

If Tesla one day truely gets rid of Musk and facists in general (as CEO and shareholder!), I may consider their cars again. Right now, no chance.

But is there an advantage on artificially limiting your battery to 60% rather than charging to 100% and having 40% degradation at the end of the lifetime? In the second scenario I start at 100% capacity that slowly gets lower and lower whereas in the first scenario I have only 60% from the start and still some (although much less) degradation.

Question is how many of them do see Trump and his party at fault now and how many still blame the democrats, antifa etc.?
