What if the cause is a chronic disease or just old age?

Might be funny to get within 50 meters of an execution and bring the person back.

Could probably use this to start a cult.

Worst case is get caught by a billionare who starts mass killing people for me to heal to maximize the odds his life is extended.

This happened with the shift from manual to automatic transmissions. I used to frequently hear/read people complaining that no one knows how to drive a stick anymore.

Only Cybertrucks, since vandalizing those can only improve the vehicle.

Updated list:

  • expressing concern about innocent Palestinian citizens being gunned down = nazi
  • performing an actual nazi salute (twice) = not a nazi
  • claiming to be a nazi and selling swastika merch = not a nazi

Every day is opposite day in Trumpistan.

According to Yale's website their operating budget is about 6 billion of which 2 billion comes from the endowment. That seems a bit low, but they are probably putting some money back into the endowment to grow it further.

I'm not saying they couldn't afford to keep this one class (surely they could) but funding the whole operation with just the endowment would fail in the long term.

Awesome to see new techniques like this bare fruit. There is just something fascinating about unlocking an artifact's secrets, like unlocking a long sealed box that could be full of treasure.

I used to think the Anne Frank quote was inspiring. Now I just see it as bitterly ironic.

A third term implies the constitution is still in place and don't see them passing an amendment without doing something ridiculous like creating a bunch of extra states.

Far easier to just never end the second term. Claim a national emergency and suspend elections/the constitution.
