  • A day with no plans where I’m not thinking about the end of my days off. You don’t get it with a week off. Every day you have a thought about how many days left but two week on Wednesday. You’ve done what you want the weekend is still far away and you know the next week I’d more time. Bliss, no need to worry about utilising your time off. Just pure impulse.










  • I agree with universal basic income and also believe it will cause issues. The only way it works is if regulations are put in place to avoid making it useless. The rich can spend large amounts to find loopholes so basically the government will have to provide a bunch of guidelines and when the government steps in people get mad. Even if the pool of money is the same, the pool of money in each market may not be. Stocks and Yachts (extreme example) may go down and investment in rent or cheap food would go up, therefore demand and therefore prices. An alternative would be to make UBI use a separate commodity but it wouldn’t really fix the problem as it would likely mean that the commodity could only be spent in select stores and there not provide the freedom it should.

    Unfortunately, its a matter of needing real investigation into the market as there’s a chance it could drastically backfire.




  • There’s a sidequest in Like A Dragon Gaiden that literally mocks the danger of using AI to do this. I don’t know your position but I’m sure your friends aren’t gonna mind if you just send them a sentence response.

    I’ve found in my life the more I think about how I should reply the more likely I am to say something they dislike, I’ll overthink and add something that infers I’m not talking about X. And the reply will come back “If you aren’t talking about X, why did you bring it up?”
