The problem with UBI is it won't come without the power of the people forcing it. And then when that dies down it can just as easily be taken away. If you've got a mass movement with that power, why would stop at a bandaid?

Of course, that would never change in the face of changing financial incentives. The world as it is is the world as it ought to be.

Xavienth , to Memes in Math

It is the quadratic formula. It already is the solution. The problem is any quadratic of the form ax²+bx+c=0

Have people never heard of the quiet game outside of an Australian cartoon?

I'm not clear on the details but I think some servers just hook up open loop to mains water for cooling.

Xavienth , to Memes in water...

Typo?

Xavienth , (edited ) to Memes in How American

It's a person by person thing and I suspect age plays a large part in feelings towards the term. In general I would say avoid the term unless it is requested.

So you think we should decentralize cities. Make it so you don't need to go downtown for everything. Everything you need would be within 15 minutes of walking.

... A fifteen minute city perhaps.

Xavienth , to Memes in Just one more lane

The joke is on you. There are places where it already is easier than driving. What do such places have in common? There are so many people that having everyone drive is literally impossible to accommodate. You wouldn't drive in Manhattan, Tokyo, or Seoul. It literally makes absolutely no sense to. In these cities, public transit is faster and way more convenient.

Smaller cities can replicate this effect by just... not outrageously favouring car infrastructure like they do today in North America. That doesn't mean exclusively making driving worse, it means making public transit better at the same time with the freed up funding. And the freed up money is a lot, car infrastructure is super expensive. More routes with more stops at higher frequencies are made possible because of higher ridership, which increases convenience and makes it more likely you will get almost exactly from your origin to your destination.

But the American brain cannot conceive of this. "Communist transportation" fucking lmao. What if we made cities more liveable for humans, not for cars? Nah we can't do that that's communism.

If you make driving easier than transit, more people will drive who previously took transit. The reverse is also true. One of these situations is more desirable for myriad reasons.

As well, additional demand can be created by convenience. People will make trips they otherwise never would have if it's easier to make them.

that's what they want you to think

Presumably an asexually reproducing species wouldn't have a concept of gender since it arises from social classifications of sex, which they also would not have.

Xavienth , to Memes in This is not REAL capitalism!

No but it sure was based
