Lemmy needs the ability for mods to move posts between communities. There's plenty of posts that would make for great discussions but that are not where they should be. Moving them would make more sense than shutting them down altogether.

Spinach has a lot more than just vitamin k, and so does everything else you eat. It would do you some good to actually record what you eat on an average day and take a look at their total nutritional content. A varied diet consisting of mostly whole foods will almost guarantee that you meet your daily needs. If your particular diet doesn't, this exercise would reveal where the holes are. I'm willing to bet it's a lot easier to patch up then you think.

Also, it seems that you only need 25g of spinach to reach your daily needs. That's a ridiculously tiny amount of spinach. Considering that vitamin K is fat-soluble and can be stored, a single 200g meal of spinach will satisfy your vitamin k needs for over a week.

Sources: USDA says spinach has 483µg of vitamin K per 100g spinach. Health Canada recommends 120µg of vitamin K per day for an adult male. FDA also uses 120µg for the purposes of nutrition labels.

I don't think you understand how hypotheticals work. When someone says "suppose X happens", it doesn't means X can or will happen. They're asking you to imagine a scenario where it does happen. How the rules of the universe changes to allow it to happen can be up to you, and there's many ways that you do it, but some will lead to more interesting thought experiments than others. You proposed a rule change where knowing when/how you die with absolute certainty means being immune to all harm until that point. I don't think that's a very interesting scenario to think about, so I proposed an alternative that is closer to how our universe actually world and can simply be explained by very good (or bad, depending on perspective) luck.

This again assumes you can successfully pull this off. Get into an accident on your way to the woods and get paralyzed from the neck down? Too bad, you live now. Crazy cousin has a sudden moment of clarity, recognizes the insanity of what you're doing, then has you committed to an asylum? Too bad, you live. Spend a few hours toiling to set up your contraption, collapse in a puddle of exhaustion, then have a change of heart because why the duck are you putting so much work into trying to off yourself? Well, then you live.

Also for deciding when to retire or how much money you can/should spend to maximally enjoy your life.

That relies on you being able to acquire this C4 without the authorities noticing and putting a stop to it.

That's like saying ibuprofen is snake oil because it doesn't cure headaches. No one is taking it with the expectation of a cure. It's just meant to help manage the problem.

200g of spinach sounds like a very reasonable amount for a single meal. I don't see the problem here.

I've had the opposite experience myself. Protein shakes keep me full for about as long as water. Protein rich whole foods are much more satiating for the same quantity of protein.

It's still a thing, but it's a multigenerational process.

I'm pretty sure credit card companies already take care of preventing and reversing fraudulent transactions free of charge.
