Pressure and mockery? Pretty sure he died of physical abuse and malnutrition. He didn't die because Putin made him sad.

The whole point of the cat thing was to point out the absurdity of the claim that reality isn't real until you know about it. The cat is already in whatever state you observe when you open the box. It's not both alive and dead, it's either alive or dead. The thought experiment isn't serious, and it's not supporting the idea that the cat is somehow magically in both states just because you haven't yet manipulated the lid of a wooden cube.

They do wear out eventually, but the end of their useful life is a whole crapload of rounds if they're well-made, and most good guns can have parts replaced either by the user or by a smith, so you can keep them running a long time if you oil them and keep them relatively rust-free. If a gun is so messed up it can't fire or if it fails catastrophically and blows up, if it's truly and permanently at the end of its life, I think most folks do indeed throw them in the trash, assuming they have no historical value. Maybe disassemble them or cut them up with a hacksaw first. Once it stops being able to be a gun anymore, it's just junk.

I will absolutely eat a whole can of olives and not regret it a bit.

Wait until you hear about The Sims
