Unfortunately health care will be many times more expensive than anyone can afford with just UBI so they will still have to work and companies will still take advantage of them.
In the early 1900s there where battery changing stations used mostly by businesses but there was a period when electric was preferred over gas people tend to forget that.
If you think AI should look like something from I, robot or ex machina then you are correct. It's kind of like UFO it doesn't stand for aliens. I saw a UFO... "Do you think it was aliens?" Hell no I don't... I think I couldn't make out what the hell it was.
I don't see us colonizing mars any time soon but we can put things on it including humans although it would be costly and hazardous.
Some of us are looking at this from a very different perspective, as a kid I saw space flights and watched the original star trek thinking wow that's amazing in world where the home computers and internet didn't exist and phones where still landlines. Today I look back and think that the technological world I live in now didn't even exist when I was that young kid or even a young adult and again I'm amazed.
*water has high heat capacity (as well as high latent heat of fusion) and thus stores cool very well; and is both cheap and environmentally benign.
The use of windmills to pump irrigation water is not entirely uncommon, less common is using that water to cool a barn or workshop although it is done. They pipe the irrigation water which depending on where you are can be very cool {it's usually below 60f in my area year round} through a radiator with a blower before it goes into storage tanks, etc.. and is used to irrigate.
Walmart has 90/10 at around 4.25/lb but it's frequently on sale for a dollar of per lb if i where willing to drive 60 miles to the closest sam's I could get a better price but I don't make those trips often.
The most expensive debt that I have is health care mostly my wife's and that's with good insurance. I had always thought that my largest debt would be a mortgage however health care exceeds all of my other debts put together by a very large margin.
Researching into more and more intelligent AI isn't really a thing because we are creating them to do work and limiting their interactions to those tasks because attempting to make them more intelligent or allowing them to learn beyond a certain set of parameters would be counter productive.
I have no idea how the cost of living differs I have friends in countries where $90k USD would be about the same to them as it is to me and some countries where it would be more, of course $90k is a lot more in kansas than new york and that's the same country.
There aren't a bunch of asteroids near earth the best candidates for mining would be on the other side of mars. The moon is a fairly extreme environment making mining a costly and difficult endeavor at best. It would very likely be cheaper to bring the resources from earth for now.
This is more like a convenience store when a vendor pays for prominent placement of their product or the store places higher margin products in better locations. It's not an ad on a web page or in the news paper but there is still a big sign.
The roku shows new and top movies for amazon prime and showtime on the right hand side of the home screen only I haven't purchased either, now if it showed new on netflix at least it would be for a service I purchased. I'm not really sure if apple tv does that but I'm sure they have some agreements with content providers.
I would consider both of those advertising although less annoying than a giant popup ad for hemorrhoid cream or mind altering anti-depressants. {in rare cases some people using (insert dug) have experienced sudden death}
Why am I under the impression that it still has advertising only it's more subtle than new cars and feminine hygiene products because it's top movies, shows, and new releases.
Perhaps the internet made more brick&mortar stores I don't remember there being a dozen places to buy internet connected devices in my little town during the 1970s

A Citizen's Dividend of 17% would end poverty.
I keep seeing this but a 17% dividend of what?
They are not going to shank you in the kidney... they'll shank you in the throat and take the kidney.

You forgot on your Android or IOS device for only $1.99.

Perhaps that's why he is so adamant about colonizing mars he is tired of earth politics...

Walmart super center $2.98/lb after a dollar off sale also not very lean.

That's about 6 million rubles is that enough to retire?
I had to look that up. All I can say is "Wow! that's crazy!"
I thought the answer was anything to not go through a bunch of color swatches to pick a new color for the living room...
Will saying "I hate Monday" equal hate speech and if it does then that's a lot of posts to delete.

Sorry, I just thought that's where it would have to go before it would do any good.

lovely let's start an annoying ad campaign to get people to sign a petition against annoying ads

I swear I was never BOFH at prodigy...
