The idea behind Universal Basic Income (UBI) is that everyone gets it. Rich, poor, and everyone in between. There is no criteria (other than maybe citizenship) that would prohibit getting the money. That helps to prevent what you are describing.
I’m sure someone will figure out a way to make it terrible in some way, but we have to implement it first and then deal with the hiccups.
I do.
The better question is this: How does trying to make Biden lose the primary in Michigan help the people in Gaza?
Right… Because there is another real choice in this race.
The orange con-man is even friendlier to Israel and would help to escalate this tragedy.
I don’t like the choices either, but the one that isn’t Biden is so much worse!
My first thought was anti-labor.
You only need a key to activate Windows. Windows 10 and later will install and run just fine without activation.
The difference for me is Reddit started treating it’s loyal users like sellable assets. I loved Reddit, it was a comfort zone for a long time, but they betrayed my trust, so I left and I have no intention of returning.
I doesn’t matter if Reddit is really dead or not. They are dead to me.
Yep. Leave them in the pants pocket until I transfer them to a fresh pair.
Sleeping me is not to be trusted with such things. 😴
This didn’t stop being a problem for me until I made a long term effort to only allow my keys to be in my hand, in the ignition of my car, or in my pocket. Not my coat or jacket pocket either. My pants pocket. I may not always have my jacket, but I always take my pants. Opening a door and leaving them in the lock is also not allowed. I used to do that and then leave them there all night long. No matter how inconvenient it may be at that moment, this rule is never to be broken.
Keys are in the hand, ignition, or pocket only!
I never let go of them unless they are going in the ignition or my pocket.
It was hard at first and I continued to lose them for a while. But I kept at it and because I did this the pattern is now habit and my keys haven’t been lost in years.
I’ve got fifty cents that says this dude watches an extraordinary amount of gay porn and somehow he thinks that is shameful. It isn’t, but he thinks it is.
I have thought something similar for a while. The number of robocalls and survey calls we get on our landline phone outnumber the calls we get from friends and family something like 10 to 1. At this point, if we don’t recognize the number, we don’t answer it. Most everyone I know does the same thing. So there is an entire swath of people who never answer these polls and are not represented.
I’m also suspicious of any news suggesting that Arab and Palestinian Americans are going to vote for Trump because of what is happening in the Middle East. As bad as it is for Palestine right now, I believe it will be so much worse under Trump.
If you have a vacuum bag sealer, you could make some custom bags that hold two eggs or more, crack the eggs into the bag (a wide-mouth funnel helps), vacuum out most of the air and seal them. Lay them flat during the initial freeze and they will store great!
I use it to control some of the lights in my house. WiFi enabled plugs and switches are more convenient than having to go to each one and manually reprogram them. In my bedroom, I have one set to turn on every day at 7am and again at 9am in case I turn it off and go back to bed. It’s basically a silent alarm clock.
I also have WiFi control for the mini-split (AC and heat) in my workshop. I can view the set temperature vs the actual temperature from my phone and I can adjust the temperature remotely if I want.
Those red hats do seem to have a “mark of the beast” flair to them. They aren’t the permanent mark indicated in Revelation 13:16, but I think if you wear it every day it may as well be.
I’m not a Christian, but his followers certainly are. I wonder how they don’t see it?
American citizens who reside in one state are not the property of that state and cannot be prohibited from traveling to other states. Case closed.
I would expect that the wheel shaft has a flange or maybe some knurling on it to prevent it from coming loose. You will probably need to drill it out. I wish you the best of luck on your journey, you will learn a lot about how things are made. I also expect that this will end with you buying a new castor or a new suitcase.
The main character is an unemployed mathematician with schizoid personality disorder whose social interactions are mostly with his old professor and the people in his apartment building. The movie is a thriller, but the main character’s isolation from the rest of the world is rather stark. This is helped by the fact that it was filmed in high-contrast black and white.
Start small with important things, like your keys and your phone, and create a contextual place for them. In the home they are always in the same place. The location should be convenient a table or a shelf is great. The important part is that you never set them down anywhere else.
When you are out, they are on your person but always in the same place. Never set your phone or keys down while you are outside of your home. They are in your hand or in your pocket. There are no other places to put them.
My phone is always either in my pocket, on the arm of my big chair, or on my desk on or next to the charger. I try to never put it down anywhere else. My phone is almost never lost. My keys are similar. They are either in my hand, in a keyhole, or in my pocket. I never put them anywhere else and I refuse to put them down anywhere but my pocket.
Get in the habit of refusing to put important things down unless you can put them away properly and they will get harder to lose track of. Once those habits are strong, slowly expand to more things having a specific place in your world and you will find that things go missing less often.
UPS used to give real time tracking info here, but that disappeared sometime in mid to late-2023.
Agreed on the rest though, Amazon and UPS delivery are both much better than FedEx. I could not think of FedEx being a good retailer until they can improve the quality of their deliveries.
MS Solitaire, Space Pinball, and Minesweeper come to mind. They were not my favorites, but I know a few people who have a few hundred hours on one or more of those.
For me it’s C&C Generals Zero Hour. I have had a copy since it released in 2003, it still works, and I still play it in single player mode at least once a week. It’s great because it does not require a huge time commitment and campaign missions take about an hour or less to complete. To me it’s one of the best RTS style games out there. My second favorite? C&C Red Alert 2 and Yuri’s Revenge.
I have also very much enjoyed the Assassin’s Creed series up to AC Odyssey.
The only danger I see in communism is that no matter how benevolent it starts, communism will always (eventually) become a dictatorship. If we could somehow take human greed out of the equation, communism could be really nice for everyone. As long as humans are in charge, communism will suck for nearly everyone.
