Yes, that's what those advocating that some particular change is a slippery slope say.

I thought the post was talking about people stuck in comas on indefinite life support, or simply put "vegetables". Everything I'd heard on this forum before would suggest that people were mostly against spending doctor-hours and money on such hopeless and fruitless cases.

If the option of euthanizing Mom for killer migraines wasn't available, would actual migraine treatment be more available?
Personally I'm in favor of actually fighting against encroachment on the cases which you think are too far, rather than relying on outraged Christian pro-life gesticulating and "slippery slope" blanket denial then acting like Surprised Pikachu when that wasn't enough.

I'm yet to see anyone try to reconcile "it is ghoulish to euthanise grandma" and "it is ghoulish to keep grandma on abysmal QALY life support that costs $100,000s for 2 more decades". Perhaps we should reintroduce death by exposure. If it's hunger and the elements killing grandma, then no one is staining their hands with sin, right?

I agree on that. But classifying "teens sexting" as non-CSAM does present additional difficulty in determining whether any random picture of dubious origin is a result of a minor being sexually exploited, doesn't it? I suppose you could assume any such picture that leaks out of private conversation counts, slamming the distributor.

Such a case was also discussed somewhere on the motte but I couldn't immediately find it.

Central enough to produce real felony charges, apparently.

Russia does not have a planned economy. The state does like to extort, terrorize and rob business owners who get big enough, but you can have that in capitalism. In communism, there is categorically no such thing as a business owner.
People need to learn other words for "incompetent centralized state" than "communism", or you just look like the mirror of one braincell leftists who call everything they don't like "nazi fascists", except you're not winning.
fellas, is it gay when a woman speaks in a piece of fiction
Ok, I mean, I get the desire for gritty warband-society fiction, but having zero women is not a natural or optimal state of most societies. The Harry Potter example is strange - I have never seen a single complaint that it has too many female characters for the male readership's taste, until now, I suppose. And superhero comics? Really? You mean those superhero comics that famously don't have women acting with agency on par with men, ever?
A future of "everyone is suiting up in hazmat or staying home in a manner reminiscent of COVID paranoia but justified" does not sound appealing either. Also it's not just hazmat but a thousand other precautions against any number of threats. It just won't be viable to live in a community larger than the Dunbar number, although I see how some people would see that as a plus.
"Land of the free" was coined in the era where the average TTK per capita was quite a bit longer than what the author is proposing.

As I understand the strait did not need American escorting until the decisive victory of America. If true, then for how long does America need to expend extra effort escorting ships through the strait before it stops looking like America gained something?

Started a fresh Quasimorph save recently as well. It is, as usually, a bit tiresome that some upgrade branches are bottlenecked by things like raw ore which seem to only be found in a very select few stations in the inner system, or half a year of travel away.

Your thought process kind of sounds like all the trans people who end up calling themselves some stripper name like Lola or Lilith or Brayden.

I haven't checked all of those links but from what I recall of your previous LLM Evangelion smut, it was just watering the prompt down with meaningless (and very aislop-coded) prose. If that's your criteria for good authors I suppose you can stick with AI. Any amateur "bad" human author would add more creative input on accident, let alone if he tried.

The warrior class in the past seems to have been a lot more at ease with naked conquest. It wasn't until mass citizen-conscript armies were a thing that "defending things" became the go-to casus belli.
The warrior class is still there but you can't conscript those en masse, there aren't enough of them. Hence the frustration that young men are being "lumps".

I think it's less about the economic zone thing and more about all those things you listed not actually being "defended" by aggressive adventures across the globe.

I count personal concern as something that immediately threatens your person. Being concerned that they might hurt someone, or themselves, is more like civic concern.

I think it is more likely that a room is abandoned for a decade or a few than that humans collectively drop back to the Stone Age.
In any case, if we do drop back to the Stone Age, we have bigger problems than not being able to read the classics.

As the joke goes...
The average encounter a citizen has with a cop is in the negative context. Copwaver Georg, who is in the cohort of the people who call the cops, including in situations that don't personally concern them, and makes sure to wave to every passing patrolman, thus racking up 1000 positive interactions with cops per month, is an outlier who should not be counted.

It might also be so that there is no longer an incentive to learn extinct languages such as 2026 English.
My intuition tells me it's easier to lapse in maintaining climate in a warehouse than lose disk reader technology.

I don't mean store the dead trees. I mean store the data, in free public access.
As others mentioned, the vast majority of those partaking in euthanasia are the elderly and (I presume) infirm, rather than depressed young women. The negatives are far smaller and more narrow than the positives.
We will most of us be old and infirm one day, barring miracle medical advances. Yet only a small fraction of us will be the exact fraction of depressed that having euthanasia makes a difference between pushing through it or getting MAID.
