Soo… since OP is a jackass, here’s the link: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/10697529/Prisoners-could-serve-1000-year-sentence-in-eight-hours.html

The gist (emphasis mine):

Philosopher Rebecca Roache […] said, […] “you could imagine developing a pill or a liquid that made someone feel like they were serving a 1,000-year sentence”

I can’t fathom why this is report-worthy. Was April 2014 such a boring month?

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 25 points 8 months ago

I wouldn't call OP a jackass for not providing the source for a shitpost.

[-] bort@sopuli.xyz 5 points 8 months ago

providing source is good form in every context

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 9 points 8 months ago

Sure, the source would have been nice. They're not a jackass for not providing it though. Do you send the source every time you show a friend a meme?

[-] bleistift2@feddit.de 2 points 8 months ago

Yes, I do. In this case I think it’s vital to link to the source, since the meme make it look like this garbage was a real thing.

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Maybe they didn't have the source. Again, we're on the shitpost community. I think it's unreasonable to call someone a jackass because they don't research the sources for every meme that they find and shitpost. Especially when they're a power-user like OP and post 30-some times a day.

Well, yeah, but I come from furry culture. Gotta respect your artists.

It’s older than that if you want to cite fiction

Which someone saying “maybe one day we can” is

You could imagine.

This philosopher hack has also written about eugenic BS aimed at sculpting humanity to have a smaller carbon footprint. I'm ok with op not actually linking to her crap.
