cwagner,

Because by 1944 they used around 4500 forced labourers (foreigners, POWs) in dangerous condition. Oh, and they apparently bought 170 female prisoners, who then all died during some experiment:

A Bayer employee wrote to Rudolf Höss, the Auschwitz commandant: “The transport of 150 women arrived in good condition. However, we were unable to obtain conclusive results because they died during the experiments. We would kindly request that you send us another group of women to the same number and at the same price.”

cwagner,

Hah, poor guy, because I never heard of him before, and he was mentioned in the same breath as Hitler, I thought he has to be some pretty shady dude, but otherwise ignored that part :D

I’ll join the energy people. To live is to suffer, at least as long as you have a physical body. Even if you are a billionaire.

Once we are beings of pure energy, well have peace and equality. Well, hopefully.

I really like transhumanist and posthuman novels, yes ;)

Have you ever gotten scammed, package stolen, or been a victim of fraud in any way?

I just got my package of new earphones from Best Buy, and the box was fucking empty. I mean there is the box and instruction manuals and charging cable, but the actual earphones aren’t there. They’ve used Shipt (which is like a doordash but for packages) but the box was inside another layer of packaging which was supposedly...

cwagner,

Yeah, early-ish days of ecigs (started vaping fully in 2012, so I’m guessing this was around '13/'14), ordered a mod off of facebook, wired the money via WU, the end. And yes, that seems risky, but that was also how things were done, few of the advanced mods were made by companies (those only made lame stuff that looks closer to the teenager ecigs they now sell at the supermarket), instead you had people tinkering in their basements ;)

cwagner,

Technically, Mugg & Bean from South Africa. But that’s the chain they used to be, they changed their menu in major ways at some point between 2019 and 2023, and now it sucks :(
