I spent too much time on that this morning... :P

Kinda. A human has a value to society (roughly) of about $10m.
If your harvest them for parts, you can do 2xlung, heart, liver, 2xkidney, intestine, pancreas, bone marrow, 2xcornea for about $12m. but thats parts and labour. The parts themselves have $0 value. Its your labour that has value, not you

American Christianity is absolutely nuts. But I shouldn’t be surprised. Colonies founded by religious extremists, grown with people escaping the enlightenment. Those roots go deep.

XD

I like!

That WAS another point I was going to make! I quite like the trolley problem because it is so trivial and easy to outsmart or undermine. It’s the same reason I play games in easy mode :)
If I have only bothered you, though, I am sorry, and I shall leave you be! :)

Lecturers often suck. And they often don’t want the class to debate, they want you to learn things as wrote

I would suggest that the trolley problem is working very well! It has us, two strangers in the internet engaged in critical debate of ethical exercises :)

Not engaging with it is fine, it’s meant for getting kids to discuss ethics it’s an introduction, not the pinnacle of ethical dilemmas! It’s not meant for moral musings, just a way to get kids discussing ethics amongst their class. :)

I prefer to reframe it: you have one healthy person, and five who will each die without a different organ transplant.

The question and answer before clear very quickly… Should we start harvesting innocent people for their organs?

The trolley problem gives you a highly unlikely situation that requires quick action, it you’re expected to then spend time thinking if and debating the solution. Thinking about the trolley problem abstracts it from reality.

Maintain your grip on the kobold's holes for a release angle of 45 degrees and the kobold would be thrown about over 4 meters horizontally and would reach 2 meters above ground level

Now, if we assume a perfectly spherical kobold of even density and 10kg mass, then a human could kobowl a kobold at about 5.7ms^-1.

a couple of weeks ago, a human me was bowling a 12lb ball at about 18mph. thats about 5kg at about 8ms^-1, for an energy of 160J.

Sometimes I pretend to be daft, to hide the fact that usually, i'm not pretending.

Yes, the bike is parachutable, and so does the trike! It’s a Belgian paratrooper vehicle!

You can cruise with us any time!

That is the FN AS24.
That and the Welbike are my dream rides…

I would be honoured !

I would love to play video games! I hope you’re not very good at them, though, cause I’m not…

(Beautiful picture!)

We’re kobolds. To us, most ducks are quite large!

When I close my eyes,That is. The visual artifacts blend into the kaleidoscope!

Damn, I have that too. Especially the persistence of vision of the horizon, and it’s like a kaleidoscope of moving colours!

That’s because you’re not making enough assumptions!

What if: Unsh*ttification

The votors don’t want your half-measure menace! They want KT’s chaos!
Withdraw! Back me and I’ll name you chancellor of the exchequer! It’s an easy job, we’ve got no money!

A vote for KT is a vote for Kobold Totalitarianism!
Only by voting for me can you stop the slomnir menace!

Mae: [Holding wasp spray] Is this good for wasps? Gregg: No, it kills them.

Eepy....

Anyone who takes Methylphenidate (Rytalin) suddenly find your medicine suddenly gives you headaches and makes you feel sick the whole time?

The past week or so it’s just started kicking my ass and I don’t know why
