True, it’s what Putin does. Fortunately I don’t think Trump has the intelligence to realize this is what he wants to do.

Perhaps Luigi+Trump is what it actually took to get them to move…

Absolutely. I was going to suggest TOML as the standardized Linux format as well.

I actually looked into it, although I didn’t like very much that the config file is actually a program and an odd language. They should have used something commonplace like JSON

I also wish Linux used a standardized config file format.

I guess that’s essentially what UBI is – benefits, except that they’re high enough and you’re not forced to seek for a job. The negative income tax could perhaps be constantly adjusted to respond to how many humans were currently needed in the economy; although I suppose that the size of the wages themselves would be enough to achieve this. Also, I think UBI could be paid for by taxing the robots, whenever it could be proved that the robot had the same abilities as an employee. The monthly tax could be the size of the replaced employee’s montly salary and it could go directly to the specific person that the robot replaced. Come to think of it, the legal framework could be that only employees are allowed to own robots (and not companies), and the robots would therefore work and earn directly on behalf of that person.

It might be worth calling representatives from elsewhere and pretending that you are their constituent.

Tbh I’ve been on !casualuk where politics is also banned and it made for a more chill environment
