Universal basic income will start in the 2030s, which will help cushion the harms of job disruptions. It won’t be adequate at that point but over time it will become so.

In the US? Fat fucking chance. The social safety net here is so poor that even the amount you get for unemployment is the same as it was decades ago, which doesn't pace with inflation and can't even cover rent anymore.

I don't believe I'll see UBI in my working lifetime. There are too many powerful interests that oppose it.

Do the bonuses from all the sights stack?

All that RPG needs now is a bayonet.

When do I learn how to dodge gigantic boulder traps?

Your friend sounds like an awesome person to hang out with.

Why though? I like public infrastructure. I don't want toll roads everywhere I go.

So how would you say that you're a disappointment to the empire in Klingon?

I'd be curious to know what the Kremlin's actual spend is relative to what they promise to give for recruit contracts, considering that so many die on the front lines, their remains never get collected, and are listed as MIA to avoid having to pay.

He needs to put points into two handed fighting though. Otherwise he'll have a -6/-4 attack modifier. If he does though he should be able to reduce it to -2/0, negating it almost entirely.

That's how Big Floppy has tricked us into buying more floppies.

I'd eat it.

Right, but at the very least the government goes through a commercial grade dedication screening for these types of things. It's not like Norfolk Naval Shipyard just goes "eh let's just put a X-box 360 controller from Amazon on it and call it a day."

I agree, definitely for those safety-related critical components.

Got a separate sonar monitor that needs a controller to navigate menus? Sure a Logitech F710 would work for that. For actually controlling the entire sub? Definitely not.

There is a good reason engineers specify single points of failure so as to mitigate them in the design phase.

Move fast and break things isn't the right philosophy to have when you're leagues under the sea and a failure can be absolutely catastrophic lol.

Ave, Caesar!

The original guy in that company had such hubris that it amazes me that he was an engineer at one point. Choosing materials for a submarine that didn't fit the role (carbon fiber sucks at compression), going cheap on those parts (Boeing QC-lot rejected carbon fiber lol), over-reliance on commercial-grade components like the gamepad for submarine control, and the general "safety is overrated" mentality that eventually hoisted his own petard.

The submarine wasn't designated seaworthy by any third party organization and even independent engineering analysts said years prior that structural failure was less of an if and more of a when.

A 🦅 bald eagle 🦅 has just shed a single tear to this meme 🇺🇸🇺🇲🇺🇸🇲🇾🇱🇷🇵🇷

They can get cockroaches, but the nozzle has to be like 2.54 cm or less away from it otherwise the velocity dropoff is too great.

What if they're in Britain or any of the left-hand drive countries?

Plan 9 from Bell Labs says hello.

Can't infect a filesystem if it's so fundamentally different from any others (including Unix) out there.
