    Get rid of all lock in or network affect. In investing it might be called moat. Looking to destroy like Facebook. Very hard to compete due to they have all the users. You can’t just choose your chat app, you also be on the same network as your friends. Decouple those two. Another example is YouTube. They are the biggest video provider and thus will reach most users. Decouple those two again. I can continue with Microsoft apps, Netflix videos, Google search and ads etc.

    Without possibilities for real competition, you dont get innovation.

      Talking on your phone like it’s a pizza slice; defeating the design, needing to then shout AND raise the volume, and generally looking like a moron on a reality TV show.

    Also fuck you, especially when I’m in a god damned exit lane.

    Hypocrisy. If one berates people for doing x, when you do it you’re doubly guilty. You might still be guilty for other reasons, but if you publicly scorn other people doing it you’ll get a bonus penalty.

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

    Except for “no parking in the bike lane”. That one’s worth.

      But, hear me out: people using commas where they should use periods. Can we kill those people as a darwin exception?

          Double death to them. If you can correct someone, then you clearly were able to understand perfectly in the first place.

      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.

    Recipes in concrete metric units, preferably mass instead of volume. Recipes come together incredibly quickly when measuring out ingredients can just be dump-tare-dump-tare-dump instead of trying to get sticky ingredients like tahini out of a measuring cup.

    More torx screws. There are apparently some uses for phillips, but torx are criminally underused.

      That’s a good one. I feel like either torx or square drives should be chosen and all consumer facing screws should be one of, say, 10 sizes.

      And you can apply for a permit to use other sizes, but even that is gonna cost you like a couple days in jail.

      I would add that all recipes must use the common professional standard format with ingredients and their amount at the top, preferably alongside the required equipment followed by the estimated prep time and cook time followed by the consecutive step-by-step listed instructions.

      My brother was getting one of meal subscriptions akin to Blue Apron and there was never any rhyme or reason to the format, content, or layout of the included recipe instructions. -An egregious oversight.

      I also have heard that when torx heads become stripped they turn into hex heads. I’ve never investigated this claim, though.
