I mean the general problem is that the word vaccine has been merged with two meanings of "creating something so your immune system gets prepped to prevent disease".

Moderna here create something so your immune system gets prepper but it doesn't prevent it's used to fight.

I mean this word came from cow, you are right, it's time to redefine some of these terms.


Profitable for IPO for profitable to survive? It's way too late now but when Spez first came in, he had insane amounts of good will.

He should've been just honest and transparent with server costs and how much Reddit Gold and ads were bringing in. They used to have a Reddit gold target.

From there, they can slowly implement API charges to make a tiny profit so they don't just lose money there or implement Reddit Gold/Premium tiers that offer way better benefits.


I'm actually surprised corporations aren't lobbying for this. Instead of coming up with original ideas, they can just take any works of art pre-2000 and just recycle them over and over.

Why spend billions buying Marvel when you can do it for free, why spend billions for parts of the LOTR series, why spend billions to buy Lucas Arts.

I mean Disney is built on taking public domain works and reworking them into their own classics. Imagine if they could do that with the biggest cultural uptake in human history of the 1900s instead of the relatively unknown 1800s stories.

Don't forget streaming services like Netflix who shell out billions to get Seinfeld and Friends. Lobbying for 20 years means they get ALL the 90s instead of shelling out billions.
