This has been happening for more than a hundred years now... 90%+ of the people have been farming not that long ago, and mechanized farming equipment has replaced 95%+ of those workers. This doesn't mean 4 hour workweeks or majority of

There's a special place in hell for people who block curl and wget, especially on sites with downloadable files (eg source code tgz's, media, etc.), basically anything i might need to wget on a server.

Why is the communist-built national assembly building in Ljubljana, Slovenia on the list here? A bunch of missing castles, but then a commie style building from 1959 comes on the map?

It could be 1.7 if we actually built apartments young people could afford. It could be 1.9 if we had better paid jobs for those without college. We could have even more if kindergarden didn't cost as much, and if people could afford ev

So invading the privacy of millions of people, even if it's just automatic scans for some specific thing is a right thing? Does this apply to mandatory drug tests for everyone everywhere? How about drug and weapon seeking drones, doing

More effort should be done to find real-world equivalents of such actions and "think of the children". An icloud is like a storage locker or a safety deposit box... the owner should go through all your stuff there, just in case yo

You can spin many things to sound as racism if you want them to. My small eu country has in the recent years started importing workers from asian countries, and people are against that... of course it's branded as 'racism' in

There's no need for the city to build it, they have zoning plans, and they can easily zone "that corn field over here" into an aera of commie-style apartment buildings (5+ floors, commercial on ground floors, apartments above

Yep, same with seatbelts... a lot of broken ribs, etc. and people complaining. If you crashed so hard, the belt broke your ribs, without the seatbelt, you'd be dead right now, head first through the windshield. I mean sure, you wouldn&

For us living in "the rest of the world", we only have a choice of being spied on by chinese or american companies, and american ones can do a lot more damage to us than chinese. So if we're getting spied on anyway, why not b

It's easy... you just tell it what you want, and it gives you the answer, especially if you know very little about the topic itself. The problem is, when you know the topic well, and it's giving you bad/wrong answers, because

A lot of the new designs are actually practical.... be it striped carpets or patterned bus seats, they're designed to hide stains and wear. If eg. bus seats were made from white fabric, no one would want to sit in them after a month or

But we want cheap stuff, we don't have unlimited money. This law didn't open a phone case factory in europe, it just made the 1eur case cost ~5euros (vat is paid on customs too). The only alternative is to go to a local mall and b
