Oh gawd I fell for it. It’s the right amount of blurry that was common on the early internet so I didn’t question the hazy details.

Because claps are the only currency accepted on the secret market where medical workers buy their groceries.

Be Batman, have prep time.

Doesn’t matter. Green Mario is perfect. Working class, deals with literal shit daily, is scared of everything, and still does the thing. Red Mario has it easy, he’s not scared of CEO Bowser, he doesn’t have to overcome his fear - because he’s confident. Which is cool, good for him. But Red Mario is unachievable as a role model. Be more like Green Mario who does it scared, who does it alone, who does it anyway.

What about society exactly do I not understand?

Yes. And I’m tired of pretending otherwise.

Doesn’t matter because it knows how to use it.

I’d argue human developers also enjoy finding bugs, they just don’t like HAVING them.

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.

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.

Tea is an inefficient delivery system for caffeine. If there’s no caffeine in it, it’s a warm beverage that relaxes you. So why would the industrious German worker bee want to bother with tea bags when coffee is right there? Unless of course the bee is sick and needs to relax, doctor’s orders, to get back to work as soon as possible. ;)

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

Let me have this, Captain.
