Most people don’t want to be pirates they just don’t want to pay for an inferior service. You want people to pay then make a product worth paying for that’s prorated by country, and they gladly will.

As an example of just how bad it is, pirate streaming sites have sort by date, country, IMDb score, genre, etc. but most paid services don’t have any sort feature beyond genre. This effectively makes paid services unusable for a lot of people.

This is my go to for things that I can easily move around. It works well and minimizes use of chemical cleaning agents.

Do you mind providing additional info on previous reusable rockets. I’m not able to find any successfully reused rockets prior to the Falcon 9.

Edit: The space shuttle doesn’t count as a reusable rocket.

Edit 2: Humanity as only achieved partial reusability so far. SpaceX will likey be the first to achieve full reusability with their Starship. Of course credit for this should not go to Elon but to Gwynne Shotwell and the rest of the SpaceX team.

You must have missed the part of my post where I give credit to Shotwell, but just so it’s crystal clear I think Elon is a loser who has stolen his success from the intelligent people who work for him.

Now if you would be so kind as to answer my original question, since I am genuinely curious.

We have age minimums because the mind has not finished developing and we should also have age maximums based on the average age cognitive decline sets in.

Until we are able to properly identify outliers it’s probably best to stick with the subset of the population with the highest probability of meeting the minimum qualifications for the position.

There’s a lot of technical answers being proposed but you really need to keep in mind your target audience. Do they actually care how it works at all, or are they less technically minded.

Take the email comparison, it makes an excellent example for people who know how email works but most people don’t know so it’s not helpful as a comparison to them.

For the layman it’s probably best to stick to a simple description, such as: The Fediverse is community organized social media, it works the same as Reddit/Twitter but it’s not owned by any company. There are a few extra steps when you first sign up, but it’s well worth it for the extra control you get.

Ah yes it’s ok to violate my rights, as long as a judge approves it.

People want the Fediverse to grow because we can see how much damage corporate walled gardens have done to our society, and we care about others who are still trapped in a cycle of corporate abuse. We dream of a better world and see the massive potential benefits a decentralized global communications protocol hold for humanities future.
