Wow! He actually recommended to use the browser password manager... Yes, I use FF and have since it came. I did try Chrome a couple of times but it was just a resource hog and ugly. With FF I could get it to look as I wanted and the extensions worked better.
So I agree with his decision but not his arguments or recommendations. They are just crap. The best way to protect your passwords is via a password manager that is not in plane text. Like Pass or Keepass. Pass is my fav as it is extremely portable.
Well, Britain and much of Europe was under an ice cap during the last ice age that ended 8000 years ago. The start of the last ice age was rather quick from a couple of months to a decade some say. It only needs a change of the gulf stream like a massive melt of Greenland and one could start like when Lake Agassiz leaked.
I can not talk about how things is done in other countries... but everyone who reads Psychology (and/or psychiatry) in grade school knows about Aaron Antonovsky and the "sense of coherance" theory. Everyone in health care who study assistant nurse and up knows about this theory.
So this is not something new or unknown about. It is not biology or social.. it is biology and social. Both play a part.
I live in a Scandinavian country and we are very aware that loneliness is an important cause for depression. The problem is.. you can't force people to be social. Family might be the problem. So drugs can be a solution until you find a more permanent solution.
You have countries while they had state monopoly over prescription drugs it was much cheaper than after deregulation. The reason for this was that medical companies was forced to reduce prices if they wanted to sell their drug in that country. They could chose from selling to a country and get a small profit.. or no profit at all. (Here the power lies with the customer)
The reason for high prices is IP. If you are in the choice of getting that expensive prescription drug that treat your hart disease or die.... you will pick the drug. No competition exist. (Here the power lies with the seller).
So to get reasonable prices you either have to remove IP or have a country wide monopoly. Else the free market rule.
