Be Batman, have prep time.

The Wikipedia article?

Oooh now that makes sense. Thank you!

“Let’s see one upvoted opinion in favour of killing this healthy cat. Echo chamber!”

Idk, might be the lack of US genes in me.

What about society exactly do I not understand?

a lot of people will sit on their ass all day and take advantage of it

And they’d be entitled to just that. That’s the point: nobody being forced to work just to survive. You don’t understand the concept.

True, I just wanted to phrase it in the terms of capitalism.

That’s what I’d expect to happen. Why does he think it’s significant enough to commemorate on social media?

Non-USian here, what was the plan?

The next one won’t.

I don’t follow?

That still not “a lot” in European terms :)

At first, maybe. But that’s the neat thing about capitalism and the free market: the first to lower their prices again has a huge advantage. There’s always an incentive to operate at minimal profit.

Why wouldn’t UBI and capitalism be able to coexist? It makes MORE capitalism possible, as it were, expanding its principles of supply and demand to fields such as employment. Right now, people need a job, any job, and if there’s no job that fulfills your needs, tough - you take the shitty one and you’ll like it. With a UBI, you could shop around for the perfect job, choosing the best offer, or not “buy” at all right now because the market doesn’t offer what you want and it’s not like you’re going to starve without a job. Employers would be forced to make YOU an offer that YOU can accept and if they can’t operate under these circumstance, tough. Capitalism in a nutshell, really.

Of course, dear.

“White” is not a category that is used a lot in Europe.

Let me have this, Captain.

If you wish to ask websites to respect your privacy, you can use the “Tell websites not to sell or share my data” setting. This option is built on top of the Global Privacy Control (GPC). GPC is respected by increasing numbers of sites and enforced with legislation in some regions.

So is the difference that DNT was asking for no tracking at all while this GPC setting allows for tracking data to be created but not forwarded to third parties? That seems reasonable, not all “tracking” is malicious. Though I wonder why, if DNT isn’t respected, any other vaguely similar setting would be.

It’s really just “this thing happened” and nothing else, as if they’re reporting on events where they’re just innocent bystanders. Instead of saying what they did, it’s “hey, we didn’t do [detail]”.

I REALLY love how, in this AI friendly article, they’re using a picture of Aloy. 5/7 no notes.
