Losing unnecessary jobs is not a bad thing, it’s how we as a society progress. The main problem is not having a safety net or means of support for those who need to find a new line of work.

Atheists and ghosts are not mutually exclusive. They’re just not allowed to worship the ghosts.
AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.worksto World News@quokk.au•Malaysia grapples with growing religious conservatism4·7 hours agoThis is a legacy of the previous Malaysian govt pushing religion hard as a way to divide the population and retain control. Of course this was bound to happen, but those in power got rich and fat in the process.

Assuming you lived in a place with access to a library like you mentioned, that is. For me, libraries were a once a month thing growing up.

AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Baby dies after California mom leaves him in car to get lip filler on 101-degree day, police sayEnglish2·4 days agoTragedy is not usually due to a single cause. Multiple failures have to happen for a tragedy to occur. In this case, the mum left them unattended, and the manufacturer implemented a feature in a dangerous way. It should have been obvious in the design phase that this was a risk, to pets if nothing else. The solution is also well known, there have been groups lobbying to make occupant sensors standard for literally decades. That they implemented one without the other is arguably corporate negligence for nothing more than extremely minor cost savings.

In 2012, a great amount of priming research was thrown into doubt as part of the replication crisis. Many of the landmark studies that found effects of priming were unable to be replicated in new trials using the same mechanisms.[10] The experimenter effect may have allowed the people running the experiments to subtly influence them to reach the desired result, and publication bias tended to mean that shocking and positive results were seen as interesting and more likely to be published than studies that failed to show any effect of priming. The result is that the efficacy of priming may have been greatly overstated in earlier literature, or have been entirely illusory.[11][12]
AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Baby dies after California mom leaves him in car to get lip filler on 101-degree day, police sayEnglish3·4 days agoI agree. But that doesn’t really address the issue under discussion
AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Baby dies after California mom leaves him in car to get lip filler on 101-degree day, police sayEnglish2·4 days agoThe kids died because the engine auto shut off, so it’s actually an interesting question as to whether the manufacturer bears responsibility for having implemented a ‘feature’ dangerously.

Hopefully! My comment wasn’t aimed at KSP / KSA though, just talking about why IP is valuable
Name recognition sells stuff. Somebody who loved KSP 1 will probably give KSP 3 a go, at least to a greater probability than an unrelated game in the same genre.

Keep in mind that the pattern that resulted in the OP being banned from over a dozen communities was down voting a single post.
Nah, it turns out OP has downvoted multiple posts in the comm over time. Somebody posted records elsewhere in this thread

Yep, UBI would solve a lot of social issues currently, including the whole scare about AI putting people out of work.
Not sure what you mean about work robot ownership, care to elaborate?
