Thats generally not the case for salary unless explicitly stated in a contract (in which case it isnt threft). Typically you are expected to work whatever hours are needed to finish your job on time, but you are also welcome to exchange that by working fewer hours during down time. Typically you are expected to average 40 hours a week, where some weeks might be 60 hours others may be 20.

Yes, and long before that as well.

Fascism was on the ballot before trump got on it. Now its just on there one more extra time.

I am very resistant to nitrogen narcosis. I can breath air right up to the oxygen toxicity limit pressures while compltely ignoring the nitrogen narcosis... have hundreds of dives logged right at that line.

I feel like for me it wouldnt be quite as enjoyable :)

@stux

@zeitverschreib

Indeed.

@stux

@stux

Hahaha :)

@zeitverschreib

@jeff

I am a technical diver myself, full trimix.

I agree gas-based death is easily the most humane ways to go, and nitrogen narcosis one of the best.

That said you only get nitrogen narcosis at high pressures ordinary nitrogen hypoxia is humane but not at all like narcosis.

Hahaha I wish guns worked the way Europeans imagined they worked :)

No, desert eagle is a hanggun. Very powerful, but short range.

@zeitverschreib

@zeitverschreib

Would be a much better choice indeed.

@stux

@stux

Huh? The majority of school shooters dont use AR-15, likely for this reaason. Moreover most school shooters have never owned a gun before (by virtue of the fact of being a kid) so they arent picking guns because they are the most effective at killing, they are picking them because they are the only one they can get their hands on (and small-game guns are the most common in the usa due to being the most affordable)

@zeitverschreib

@stux You have to see the harm.. you just suggested a method of effectively torturing people to death instead of using gas simply because gas is associated with nazis, you completely abandoned suffering as a top concern because you followed the logic of "Hitler liked birthday cake so birthday cake is bad" (just the more emotional variant of that argument).

@zeitverschreib

Most AR-15 in the USA are used for small game, it isnt even powerful enough or suited for large game. Frankly, its just far too weak of a rife to be the best choice here, you'd want somethign more powerful to be humane.

@stux

@stux

> I'm sure a toxic cocktail or pills or whatever must be a much humane method but not gass

What? No, thats a horrible way to die. It takes hours, you get sick, you throw up, you have time to feel the effects... god that sounds like torture.

Nothing personal but this is why toxic identity politics is so bad... caring more about associations and how something looks to the point of torturing people to kill them rather than the humane way to do it simply cause "the nazis did it that way" is just, self destructive way to reason about the world.

No no no, please, dont use that logic ever again im begging you.

@stux

Well we certainly agree that execution is bad,..

But how is gas worse simply for being a "nazi thing"... wouldnt using another method where people suffer more but its not a "nazi thing" be far worse? Like are we really prioritizing morality by association over actual morality based on suffering?

@stux

Is your objection to execution by gas, or execution at all?

I agree that the death penalty is wrong. But if you are going to have the death penalty gas is probably the most humane way to do it.
