    As much as I would love to complain about the healthcare systems, this looks more like some condition that he had for a month or two and didn’t appreciate the severity. Based on the fact he complained about the cost, but never brought up not being able to afford it, its unknown if he didn’t seek treatment earlier because he didn’t know that he needed to, or that he couldn’t afford it. Biopsies and specialists take time unless you are actively dying, and when he was seeking treatment, that did not seem to be the case. This is true anywhere. Unfortunately he ran out of time, pneumonia Lung issues is are no joke and there isn’t really anything you can do about it until you know whats causing it, even then, sometimes there is nothing that can be done. There is another discussion at !chat@yiffit.net

    Edit: made an edit above, additional thoughts below
    I will put suffocating because of coughing towards the top of the list of horrible ways to die.
    Looking back through posts, I still don’t know if he didn’t seek help months ago because of cost or need. If it was cost, that sucks. I’m not a doctor, but looking into the two options presented, neither had a positive outlook. Based on posts indicating long covid and a recurrence of shingles, I will put him in the immunocompromised category. Whether cancer or fungus, prognosis on both is poor.
    Is the healthcare system in the US too expensive, yes, no question. Its full of perverse profit incentives at every level and inelastic demand with near monopolistic supply. Did it make a difference here, I don’t know, but I don’t think it forms the basis for a compelling argument or complaint. If the biopsy came back and he couldn’t afford treatment, this would be different.

    His life ended in an unpleasant way I would not wish on anybody. May his contributions not be forgotten.



  • A few possibilities,

    1. brave has state in the past they use the googlebot user agent, if all reddit does is check the useragnet, it won’t block brave. This does however mean brave is violating the robots.txt file.
    2. I saw some mentions of google fall back, I don’t know if they still do it, but that could be another possibility.
    3. Brave ignores robots.txt files
    4. Brave paid for access

    No matter the reason, well behaving crawlers will no longer crawl reddit, Everything is disallowed in the robots.txt

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /

    On the desktop interface there is an upload image button, if you already have it uploaded somewhere the syntax is like a link but there is not content ![](https ://some image link). That can be added to a comment or the post itself.
