There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.

  • Why should the relatives of the deceased have the final say on it? Is the corpse their property?

    Yes, it makes the most sense for the corpse to be their property, unless the deceased has specified what to do with it instead.
    You know, like it’s done with everything else a dead person leaves behind.

    If it were, they could choose to take it home and let it rot in the basement. Or cut it into pieces and feed it to dogs. Or use it for target practice, stuff it like a piñata.

    No, laws regulate what you can and can’t do with your property.
    A gun is your property, but you can’t shoot it wherever, cause it is dangerous.
    If you let a corpse rot in your basement or throw it in the woods, that poses a danger to others or the groundwater, so you can’t do that.



  • Your view of god seems to be very much influenced by the Abrahamic religions.
    You may not agree that it’s important for the deceased or their relatives to keep the body intact until it’s buried.
    But there’s a point to be made that this simply isn’t your, or the state’s, or anyone else’s decision.
    That only the deceased and their relatives have the right to decide that, no matter what their reasons are.

    Ultimately, you’re proposing that as soon as the brain stops functioning, the body of the person immediately becomes state property.
    And that’s a hard point to make, since everything else they leave behind usually doesn’t, and all of our traditions surrounding death go against it.














  • I disagree. That was the situation 10 years ago.
    Now what makes Microsoft products better is integration.
    As a business, you could research, buy, deploy, configure and maintain an office suite, a messenging app, a collaboration tool, an SSO provider, a cloud storage solution, an intranet presence, an MDM system, and a PBX, host all of that on your own servers, which you keep patched, watch over resources, storage, etc.

    Or you just get an M365 license for every employee.

    If you have major downtime with the first option, you risk your job.
    If you have major downtime with the second one, you can blame Microsoft, knowing that half the companies in the world are having the same issue right now.
