Especially when helping your parents living in the middle of nowhere.

Seeing them struggle with the changes happening in the last few decades, makes me worry what I'll be like when i need some young whippersnapper so that I can pay via personal, irrational, conditional thinking.

Jacinda Adern as New Zealand PM seemed to be sort of that type

Yes, Valve and Visa/MasterCard differ massively in their service. Valve operates a store within a specific industry, Visa/MasterCard process payments across our whole society.

It should be clear to anyone that payment providers must be held to a much stricter standard and have certain requirements of neutrality imposed on them. If not then in the best case you risk destroying the "free market" part of free market capitalism, worst case you're weakening democracy by letting unelected, unaccountable people decide what is and what isn't legal.

If you don't understand how a lever works, then it's a problem. Should we let any person with an AI design and operate a nuclear power plant?

We say "flyver" in Danish which basically would be flyor in English. "At flyve" means "to fly".

The 'proper' word - so to speak - "flyvemaskine" directly translates to "flymachine", compounding "(to) fly" and "machine". Though if you're really busy you can just call it a "fly".

You think people advocating for mass transit want to remove all roads? Cause that's a nice strawman you have there
