Euthanasia advocate displays 'Sarco', a pod that fills with nitrogen, which he hopes will one day be available as a 3D-printable device
[...]
Called the "Sarco", short for sarcophagus, the 3D-printed machine invented by Australian euthanasia activist Philip Nitschke and Dutch designer Alexander Bannink comes with a detachable coffin, mounted on a stand that contains a nitrogen canister.
"The person who wants to die presses the button and the capsule is filled with nitrogen. He or she will feel a bit dizzy but will then rapidly lose consciousness and die," said Nitschke. The Sarco was a device "to provide people with a death when they wish to die," Nitschke said.

Goldman Sachs is not a very good business model for the rest of us, either. Why incur their transaction fees when computers can do it all so much better and faster, without the chest beating and nauseous triumphalism? That those guys get paid that kind of money for, at best, looking at numbers on an Excel spreadsheet that they probably didn't even enter is the acme of absurdity.

If you can’t take care of your sick in the country, forget it, it’s all over. I believe in universal healthcare, single payer. It works in Canada. The government's gonna pay for it. But we're going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it's going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything. I'm a conservative on most issues but a liberal on this one. We should not hear so many stories of families ruined by healthcare expenses. #MAGA [twitter.com]
