    Starting work before 12pm. I’m 30 and I still absolutely hate mornings just as much as I did when I was 10, I’m naturally a night person but working graveyards has more problems than dealing with early mornings IMO. Let all the morning people feel the pain of having to be productive during your least productive hours for a change.

    If all punishment is capital punishment, then I’d keep it as laissez-faire as possible.

      So everyone that punishes someone with death will receive the death penalty?

      Of course, you will have to punish the person that punishes the person that punishes someone with the death penalty with the death penalty with the death penalty

      But then, because they punished someone that punished someone that punished someone that punished someone with death with death with death with death, they will have to be killed

      Eventually, you will run out of people who can punish someone with the death penalty, so you will have to do it. Since you killed someone as a punishment, someone will also have to kill you, but because you are the only person that can do that, you will have to do it, ending the loop

      In a study released today, the National Academy of Sciences reports that at least 4.1 percent of defendants sentenced to death in the United States are innocent.

      So basically 1 in 20 inmates on death row are innocent, and people (mostly conservatives) are A-OK with that percentage of innocent people being subject to state-sanctioned murder in a very brutal way that’s far from painless. A dog being put down by a vet receives more humane treatment than a human being put down by the state.

        That at least bit makes that potentially even worse. Just look at the List of miscarriage of justice cases on Wikipedia, it’s not not exhaustive and it’s huge, I cannot morally or ethically justify capital punishment on that alone, the whole state-sanctioned murder bit just makes it even more horrific.

        Still a fee for the wealthy. If I earn a million a year I can easily give up 90 % of that and still live comfortably. That’s not the case for someone who earns 100,000.

        Still better than a flat fee.

          In Denmark if you are charged with hazardous driving the police can confiscate your car. A Norwegian who had bought a Lamborghini in Germany took the trip through Denmark back home and hit 228 km/t. He lost the car and will never get it back.

      Good choices. Fixed-rate fines are unfair. To someone living on minimum wage, a $500 fine can be devastating. To someone pulling down a huge salary, not so much. They’re essentially unequal punishments for the same violation.

        Yup. And not just fines imo. For instance, a cop who rapes or blatantly assaults someone, especially on duty, should have their sentence at least doubled due to the power dynamics.

        Type I. The angled pins make it much more stable than F, and there’s heaps of options for cable exiting sideways, upwards, downwards, straight out, etc .

            Plenty of type I come out sideways- they are lower profile than most I’ve seen, slightly more so than type G.

            https://media.prod.bunnings.com.au/api/public/content/5bac39a3c6d04c53be207f9021e9546b

            This can actually be a bit of an annoyance, sometimes… If the socket is right next to the floor, or in a densely packed area, for example, it can make plugging difficult.

            And if it does have a ground pin, it’s mandated that the ground be longer than the power pins, for exactly the reason you mentioned about G,D,M.

            The recessed feature of F I do like, even if it makes the plugs physically larger than they need to be.
