Don’t worry, I’ll run a VM in Linux to keep them at bay!
Oh no my computer has 741 viruses which that ad helpfully pointed out, I better click to have them removed!
Danke!
Yeah I’m going to run VM because I do enjoy working via the terminal, and I quite like the “hands on” feeling of Linux. I think some of my woes are just due to the fact I’m using a SBC as my main computer.
Doubloon. You’ve never heard of a doubloon before?
They were the gold currency in Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries. They are what pirates wanted.
You should read more!
That’s exactly why many of us dislike cloudfare. They’ve maneuvered themselves into a “too big to fail” position. Seems to be the goal of big corps these days.
It’s a super easy way to add more people to your block list.
Canada has Canadian Football.
Wish there was a video on that link! Cool story nonetheless.
May want to add some context instead of just an image if you want some engagement. You get out of this site what you put into it.
Cheers.
Okay so, there are a bunch of different agencies in charge of different types of social services. If you have UBI, those are no longer required. The money is coming from those programs. You spend LESS because you don’t have a giant work force on the back end of all those services/agencies anymore.
Eg. current: 20 departments, 100 people working at each. Gives out 1 million dollars a year in social services.
UBI: 1 department. Far less than the total of above working for it. Gives out 1 million dollars a year in social services.
See? The numbers are fluff just for the sake of the example.
Because it is so expensive to just live, people’s time is extremely limited. I don’t blame people that take care of their wants in that limited time off.
Like many people have already posted, if you didn’t spend all that mental (and physical) energy just scraping by, you will most likely have energy (and motivation) to take care of your health better.
That and it seems like everyone has depression or some sort of mental health ailment these days due to all the stresses that come with being poor.
No. It’s overwhelmingly a positive outcome.
Also, a fair bit of work is work for the sake of work. It doesn’t enrich society, just the capitalism machine. So if UBI were enacted on a large scale, there is plenty of unnecessary work that can go by the wayside.
I don’t have a clue what any of what that means but I’m a big discworld fan so I love the choice of name.
They created it specifically to post that.
One where you finally figure out that you are wrong? Read the room pal.
This is a flyby comment, btw. Don’t bother responding because I ain’t got time for people like you.
I see this on almost every post. My guess is it’s comments from instances we are not federated with?
The amount of money people will spend for convenience is indefinable.
Stremio is bad?
