Switzerland to ‘soon’ use first suicide pod for assisted dying

Oh, like the "green" water cremation pods? Invent one that uses energy even less because I call bullshit those things are actually ss "green" like they claim. ♻️
What will you call it?
I have an idea, The Soylent Green Death Machine.
Ya with the amount chemicals, water & heating required I don't think it will save the planet.

"The Billinator" has a nice ring to it, and I wouldn't need to pay anyone royalties.

The Billinator sounds like a death & crematorium pod for billionaires. 🤔 Maybe Billionator. They're pretty crazy people regardless of how rich & seemingly successful. They'd probably help you with start up costs & advertising to their inner most contact lists even, which to me, is further indication of just how crazy. I wish you luck.

I just want to kill and dissolve bill gates. Charge him a few million and thats it....one and done.

Gates, huh? Why Gates versus any of these others?

I read there is an active threat on Musk right now but, he's actually a nice guy from everything I know, very smart too. There's also plenty not on that list for whatever reason.

That's a good question.

I used to not mind gates but I lost it for him with his pandemic fuckery and that he's saving too many Africans. Re the later it's not so much that he's reducing their mortality but that he's not doing anything to reduce their birth rate.

There really should be more on my list:
-bezos, he's just a worm and I don't like the control he exerts on the Internet with AWS
-zuckerberg, soulless twat wouldn't be missed
-ellison, an arrogant cunt

Elon can be arrogant when it comes to rockets, robots, AI and cars but he's a lot more open minded than most of the billionaires who exist in their own bubble.

EHH...... YA KNOW ...... I STILL KINDA THINK THIS ONES BETTERRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ( COUGH )
 
Balmer is fucking crazy he's a good choice. If he was still alive I'd have to swap Buffet with Charlie "get off my lawn" Munger, man has zero tolerance for bullshit.
The crazy is why balmer is on my list.

Charlie would be a good choice. Even dead probably more charismatic than Buffett.

This is a very good book

 
In my last year in highschool, we got to watch a doco on euthanasia that mentioned these. In the doc, the husband had a disease, the wife didn't want to continue living without him. Somehow they both got approved so we just watched them die in class

They're not the only couple to do it.
Maybe they should 3D print a couple's sized Sarco Pod too.
Times of India says it will cost $20.

Switzerland will “soon” use its first portable suicide pod that will allow a person to die without the requirement of medical supervision, an assisted dying group said.

The pod called Sarco, which is a futuristic-looking 3D-printed capsule, was first unveiled in 2019 for assisted suicide in Switzerland amid controversy. It works by filling its chamber with nitrogen and reducing oxygen levels rapidly once a button is activated from inside.

Switzerland will “soon” use its first portable suicide pod that will allow a person to die without the requirement of medical supervision, an assisted dying group said.
The pod called Sarco, which is a futuristic-looking 3D-printed capsule, was first unveiled in 2019 for assisted suicide in Switzerland amid controversy. It works by filling its chamber with nitrogen and reducing oxygen levels rapidly once a button is activated from inside.


The process would allow the person to lose consciousness and die in approximately 10 minutes.
Assisted suicide has been legal in Switzerland since the 1940s, if performed by someone with no direct interest in the death. It has also made the country what some call a “death tourism” magnet, according to Reuters.
Florian Willet of The Last Resort, a newly formed organisation that offers assisted dying to people with “serious physical illness”, said in a press conference on Tuesday that the first use of Sarco will “take place pretty soon”.

No decisions have been made about the time, date, and place of the first assisted suicide. It is also not known who the first user would be.

But such details would be only made public once it is concluded as “we really don’t want a person’s desire for a peaceful passing [in] Switzerland to turn into a media circus”, said lawyer Fiona Stewart, who is on The Last Resort’s advisory board.

She said the first use of the pod would be this year.

The device has faced calls for a ban with opponents of it referring to Article 115 of the Swiss Criminal Code which says that assisting suicide is a crime if done for “selfish” reasons.

Whoever, from selfish motives, induces another person to commit suicide or aids him in it, shall be confined in the penitentiary for not over five years, or in the prison, provided that the suicide has either been completed or attempted,” the code says.

A letter from Public Prosecutor Peter Stiche warned that there could be “serious consequences” for operators of the machine

There is no reliable information about the method of killing,” Mr Stiche told the Swiss newspaper Blick. “[It is] completely unclear who has control over which mechanical process during the dying process.”

The pod was invented by Philip Nitschke, 76, the founder of Exit International. He has been nicknamed “Dr Death” and accused of attempting to “glamourise” suicides.

He said once the user of the pod is inside, a voice says, “If you want to die press this button”.

Once the button is pressed the oxygen plummets from 21 per cent to 0.05 per cent in the air in less than 30 seconds.

They will then stay in that state of unconsciousness for … around about five minutes before death will take place,” he said, according to South China Morning Post.

“Once you press that button, there’s no way of going back,” he said for those wanting to change their mind at the last minute.

The pods could be activated by a button, gesture, voice control, or blink of the eye. Those who cannot vocally or physically communicate due to severe illness or mobility issues can activate it through eye movement.

The process inside the pod is filmed and the footage is handed to a coroner.
