If I'm not completely natural, then the entire population should have access to subsidized ozempic. Got it.

Because you can buy sugar from the store, having the US subsidize ozempic for for the entire population makes logical sense. Got it.

Yeah, what could go wrong with screwing with the neurochemical reward system of the entire population. Surely that will have no unintended side effects. It's literally a free lunch…

Computer, shitpost memes all day that make me crypto while I raise my family and tend to my garden. The future is heading in the direction of only suckers using computers. Real wea…

Exactly. Personalized ads are now prompt injection vectors.

How long until "computer use" is tricked into entering PII or PHI into an attackers website?

Can you describe the incentive structure that makes sure Australians require less drugs in general? That's the bigger picture. Getting a discount on something you shouldn't need in…

You seem to be under the impression that the government works on your behalf to save you money.

It isn't as binary as you're making it. You can hire people who don't have conflicts of interest, or the perception of conflicts of interests.
