so, who’s buying their products once everyone is unoccupied?

UBI is an inevitable future. the only question is when, not if. And probably the countries that will be able to create a better law quicker than others will get a decent economic advantage over the conservative ones.

I still remember the first time (as a layman) I studied the details of how DNA and genetics work.

You usually get the sense from popular science that DNA is just dices rolling and mixing up genes and everything is totally random, then as soon as you start looking up how things actually work, you find out that your body is composed of actually nanobots with some kind of will, or scope actually, that work within your body doing super complex tasks, and that as of today (well, as of when I read that 10 years ago) we yet don’t have a specific idea of how those nanobots move and reach the places they’re supposed to reach.

our body is an amazing machine, amazing in a way that goes waaaaay beyond our comprehension… I recently started studying the immune system and that’s even more amazing!

I think I tried it and it ran perfectly. I think there’s also an UI redesign for the Deck IIRC

super interesting! I listened to it on Curio (which needs a subscription) but the title is:

“Magic Mushrooms. LSD. Ketamine. The drugs that power the Silicon Valley”

by Kirsten Grind and Katherine Brindley on the Wall Street Journal.

here’s the Curio link though

they actually do if your mind is susceptible to a breakdown, i.e. a latent psychosis.

I read an article on the WSJ just yesterday that said he (and many others in the Silicon Valley) are using psychedelic drugs while working in order to find new business ideas. they are into microdosing (which I’m not against), but they also throw big drug parties according to the WSJ and that might have messed with his mind. That, COVID and the recent breakup upon a narcissistic personality might be enough to explain his total breakdown.

yeah I don’t know if “fucks up” is the correct term, but it definitely is a neurological virus. see lack of smell and such.

what do you mean google is like apple privacy-wise? Google is HORRIBLE, they invented tracking in order to sell customised ads.

On the other hand, Apple has lots of flaws but a strong privacy nonetheless, since you’re paying upfront their expensive products.

ah! I didn’t know that. I was actually thinking about Diablo though and all my other bnet games. I think they won’t send out steam keys… I’d like to make them easier to play on the Steam Deck.
