You can donate blood in 20 minutes. It takes an hour plus to donate plasma

Am I going to sit in a chair for an hour plus without any compensation? Maybe once or twice here and there. But you can donate plasma at least twice a week.

It requires two donations for a single unit. If you donate once and don’t donate the second, then your first donation is unusable. You have to get them to donate twice.

When I was donating plasma, it paid about $75 for each donation. 50 first, 100 for second. The money is pretty good. $300 a month is a lot for a lot of people.

If you didn’t compensate people for plasma donations, a lot wouldn’t do it. They currently need more people to donate.

Plasma “donation” is a good thing.

Lego bricks. Lego pieces. Boys of Lego

Is not Lego plural

Like a kid would say “Do you want to go to my house and play with my Lego?”

Use it in a sentence where it’s plural and makes sense

I love playing with my Lego plastic bricks!

I love playing with my Lego!

I love playing with my Legos!

So everyone you know in person says the second one?

“I play with my Lego often”

LEGO is a trademarked name

Correct way to talk about Lego bricks is to say Lego bricks

“Pass me all your Lego!” Is not a correct sentence. “Pass me all your Lego bricks!”

If there were 15 Lamborghini cars in a parking lot. You’d say “That’s a lot of Lamborghinis”

Lamborghini doesn’t have to worry about Lamborghini becoming synonymous with “cars”. So Lamborghini doesn’t care.

If everyone keep saying “Legos” for “Plastic Bricks”. Lego could have a trademark situation on their hands, so they try their hardest to stop people calling the individual plastic blocks Legos.

It being plural is like a myth.

I have many Lego. I enjoy playing with my Lego. My Lego makes me happy.

You ask Chat GPT a question it is going to answer it becomes that’s what it has been programed to do. Input question, output answer.

Now if Chat GPT could be like “Nah I’m not going to answer that because I don’t feel like it”

Yes “AI” can be programed to not answer certain things. E.g porn stuff. But it does not make the conscious choice to do so it is following programming.

It’s scummy but not a scam

Personally, I like the pre-tax amounts displayed. I should know that I am paying 10 dollars for a shirt and that the government is taking an extra dollar. Rather than just being told, the shirt costs 11 dollars. Price tag saying 10+1 would be fine, but tax should always be displayed. Taxes shouldn’t be hidden.

Let’s say they outlawed it

Do you think:

A:They round up

B:They round down

In reality, it might save us .1 cent
