So assuming one is coming up, how can I protect myself? Pay out everything and store it under the mattress? Hold and hope? I have little clue how my assets could be affected or how I could untangle the mess that would tell me :( That said m

Thinking that reducing living standards to more ecosphere-compatible levels (at current technological sophistication no less) would result in "miserable lives" is an unfortunate consequence of the consumerist programming of the la

Why not have a Teamspeak/Discord like system where you can hang around all day in various rooms (e.g. virtual bureaus) and do the "office chit chat"? The meeting model is more like phone calls and, while I adore WFH, not well
