OP shat a litre of blood. That seems a pretty unnatural reaction to food.

Given it's a clear safety issue they shouldn't be able to differentiate on that anymore than on the arsenic content in breakfast cereals.

The problem I have with that is that I hear it every decade about niche-x. And people are right, but as soon as costs drop enough that niche-x can support the full desktop stack there's now a niche-y where you're still stuck with hundreds of bytes of memory, the market is x10 as big, and you're using the same tools you were using a decade ago.

An 8-bit micro controller will be with us forever because it is the smallest computer that is useful for more than trivial tasks, it will just keep getting smaller and smaller. I won't be surprised if the first space ship to land on a different solar system has trillions of 8-bit computers on it the size of atoms.

As a contributor to sage : thank you for starting an amazing project, and sorry for not being able to convince my university to adopt it.

There's a tarball with all the source files you need for each distribution. Trying to download them individually is ... difficult to say the least.

> saves them billions (on premature death)

Smokers don't die healthy. The "saving money" bullshit is literal propaganda from the smoking industry.

Here's an actual meta study on the costs: http://www.tobaccoinaustralia.org.au/chapter-17-economics/17...

>Third, Collins and Lapsley estimate the net costs of smoking, taking into account both those costs that are made greater and those that are reduced because of current and past tobacco use. For example, smoking increases some health care costs because of the higher prevalence of diseases caused by smoking (in smokers and ex-smokers who are still alive). These are the gross health care costs attributable to smoking. However, certain other health care costs are lower than they otherwise would be because of the premature deaths of many people who smoked over the past 40 years. These people did not live to use health care that they otherwise would have, so Collins and Lapsley subtract the costs that would have been incurred from the gross health care costs attributable to smoking in order to estimate the net cost. Similarly, in terms of labour (production) costs first costs that are made greater by smoking are estimated. For example, the time spent undertaking domestic duties because a home-maker is ill or has died prematurely is costed assuming domestic help will be hired. Then, savings due to reduced consumption—for example, household spending on food and clothing—are subtracted because these costs will be lower when there are fewer people in the household as a result of smokers dying earlier.

>Collins and Lapsley estimated that in 2004–05 the total cost of smoking in Australia was $31.5 billion

In Australia, on a coast, deal with uni students all the time.

The only times I've heard of safe spaces and trigger warnings is when people bitch about them. Can we get a safe space were we don't talk about them and a trigger warning about trigger warnings so I never have to look at a bullshit oiece about them?

Orwell talked about this in one of his essays. The man who does not have fascism beating in his breast can't understand the pleasure of smashing someones have with a boot for all eternity. Sex, money and control have nothing to do with the pleasure of destroying others and their work.
