Cooked? It takes a microwave oven with 1500 watts of power about one minute to boil a cup of water. Assuming you weigh 150 pounds, how long would it take a million times less power to cook you?
Hey, can you tell me why I need to pay income tax to a federal AND a provincial government, a city, and a school board?
All I see as the end result is mostly done by the city, like water in/out, garbage collection, snow removal, etc. All of which I could do for myself far cheaper than the total taxes taken from me.
Oh, would you like more wasteful government programs? How about the UPAC, which was supposed to be a watchdog against government corruption, which it turns out was corrupt itself?
Or wait a minute... How about Bombardier? Why should I pay them to build planes no one wants because they have family connections to the right thugs in the government?
Or, closer to you and your sig:"Space Shuttle was a program that strapped humans to an explosion and tried to stab through the sky with fire and math"
Besides your cringy attempt at profundity, the Space Shuttle was nothing but pork barrel politics to build a useless firecracker to go where we've been before to achieve precisely nothing.
They've been trying UBI since the 1960s in Canada. We have the technology and resources to enable a leisure society with guaranteed minimum living conditions for everyone.
Yeah here's the link https://www.marketscreener.com... So I don't know if they "make" it yet, but I heard about this technology and I didn't see a particular model.
"People have been searching for evidence of other intelligent life in the universe pretty much as long as anyone has been able to conceive of the concept"
Except that the concept of the "universe" as you think of it is barely 100 years old. People thought the Milky Way (that thing in the sky you could see at night before cheap light everywhere) *WAS* the *ENTIRE* universe.
Then they figured out those little patchy clouds of light are other galaxies, millions of light years away.... Uh oh.
So it depends entirely on what "concepts" you are referring to. Finding angels in the celestial spheres?
Weird. There's a McKesson is in my industrial park! I always wondered what they do, they have the newest cars in their (large) parking lot, the cleanest building, the best picnic tables, and the best employee events! I know this as I take my noon walks in my used perforated pants and worn-out shoes...
English seems to be too hard for you to write in. I'm always amazed by software types who can parse @%%@@#!!! in their heads, brag about knowing hundreds of languages yet can't master written English.

"we all need to work."
No, we don't. Unless by "need" you mean a psychological need.
That would depend on where you live, wouldn't it?

"Any my taxes won't pay your leisure while I have any say on it."
And yet they pay for any number of wasteful government programs. You're paying for the leisure of well-connected thieves.
Nice psychological problem you're illustrating there.

We *choose* to not do it.
Really? If a paste going through a nozzle counts as "3D printed", every tube of Cake Mate needs a new label.
Seriously, I thought 3D printing hype died down years ago?
If you'll excuse me, I have to go 3D print some paste on my toothbrush before I go to bed...
Those animations got old by the fifth time, though.
Yeah here's the link

That's how they got GEOS to work on a Commodore 64. Can you imagine the performance of modern software if it were done that way?

Then you should be making it yourself.
Do *you* own a government? No? So there.
You mean it can't be 3D printed?

Most of what people do is useless. Myself I work in electronics hardware, I create next year's landfill.

When did cdreimer become Slashdot's whipping boy?
Maybe that Joe Rogan interview didn't help either.
" They will probably only get wannabees"
Oh another typo! Unless you meant a type of eusocial insect known to make honey?
Just face it, you're nowhere near as smart as your auto-fart-smelling over the last few years makes you think.
When a narcissist is caught, that's when.
