Oh the t9 era of texting, I miss d tym wen t9 ws d nly optn

Well then i guess ists not an LTT reference.

Linus Tech Tips, founder Linus, thought when someone said hard r they mean the word used to describe mentally different people. But in the context it seemed like he is talking about African Americans, was a short lived story as it was a genuine mistake.

LTT reference?

They will dread everything free

I think he meant incel only, but damn the autocorrects

You do realise, these people are going there willingly, it’s the same people that go to work in cruel conditions to build stadium for Qatar world cup. For a lot of those people it’s just an opportunity to earn, and secure better future. It’s not something that government is encouraging.

Minimum wage in Israel is around 1800 USD a month, average income in India is around 3500 USD, so an Indian worker can work two months and make the same money they’d do in India for a whole year. So they’ll just go to any country that has higher wages and doesn’t restrict their entry.

At a 1mil signatures, it must be discussed in parliament. They don’t do a great job of voting on it, but it’s the law.

Gas oil in english would imply diesel.

So are you telling me it’s like the wedding tax but for firetruck?

Oh open your markets, let us sell our products in your country, but no intellectual transfers, give us cheap labour but we won’t give you better farming technologies, you can lease those technologies, pay heavy royalties, we will sell you defense equipment, but we won’t teach you how to service them, we will charge you exorbitant fees to maintain your defense equipment.

We are trying to be your friend, why won’t you be my friend?

Same with WhatsApp for me, there are new terms and conditions that allow engagement with businesses and sharing some personal data with them, I’ve been rejecting that shit for four years now, they still keep asking.

Or about Xinjiang and it’s uyger people

I think I’ve started to just outright ignore comments from big servers, trolls everywhere

Choosing the right level of income is the key for UBI to work, it has to be enough to live and survive but not so much that a recipient can enjoy luxury. Most people like to contribute to society, being is social is how humans are so dominant as a species.

Most people will contribute to the economy if they can, because it supports ambition, better lifestyle but it doesn’t put pressure to worry about where today’s food is going to be, people take more risks, be more entrepreneurial, explore more curiosity, explore new ideas, people spend time on acquiring more useful skills.

A mentally healthy mind is not entirely lazy. Being lazy perpetually reflects a deeper problem that is psychological to some degree such as having no hope or not being able to Imagine a happy future, or feeling helpless. Mentally healthy people want to contribute to society.

Economy as a whole will expand, which will pay in turn for UBI. First few years of UBI might be heavier on tax payers of the old system, but in long term UBI will lead to better economy. Question is not who is going to pay for it, question is can people agree to pay more out of their own pocket now for a better future for everyone? OR are we doomed as a species by exploiting our own kind?

What near future? Redmagic 10 pro has a very decent underscren camera that you can buy now. Only reason stupid holes in screen exist now is that mainstream phone makers are still assuming all of their customers absolutely care about taking the best selfies all the time.

Well its normal for about 1.5 billion people with about the same fatality rate as the rest of the world. It’s chaos and madness but it seems to work for them arguable about the same as organised traffic countires.

Fuck cars in general for sure, I’d prefer no death machines around me, but having lanes doesn’t make it safer in my opinion, having more attentive drivers kind of makes it safer.

Yes but it’s opt in, not opt out, it’s not shoved down my throat unlike most other companies.

And how many percentage of all livestock do you think is “free range” like the cows you describe?

Estimates vary from 80% to 99% are factory farmed. Which means majority of meat anyone is eating is factory farm. Unless you can verify the source of your meat yourself, you most likely are eating tortured animals.

So this whole argument that I have friends and family that care for their livestock like it’s their kids is the misrepresentation since, it maybe true that you know someone that is treating animals humane, it doesn’t represent majority.

Well couple of things, it’s entirely possible your friends and family are complete assholes, but sometimes people need to ask themselves how many times have they listened to someone when they want to express their negative emotions?

My wife’s cousin, her entire life she’s never once lent an ear to a sad friend/family, had had the audacity to tell an aunt who lost her breasts to cancer that she just brings negative energy and wouldn’t be invited to any gatherings at her house, now is suffering through a divorce and cannot fathom why the whole family kind of supports the husband and not her.

Exchange Traded Funds, basically these funds pool money from a lot of small investors and give you diversified portfolio. Basically if you try to mirror S&P 500 yourself, it’ll require about a few hundred thousand dollars to manage, but by pooling with other people you can have S&P 500 level diversification for 100$
