Who's the one in the back?

Hands you a card for a plastic surgeon.

Lol, guys an imbecile. Even if "millions were living in space somehow im 20 years it would have nothing but a bad effect on earth. Population growth has us set to be at 9.7 billion people in 2045 from 8.2 billion people now. So say you got 5,000,000 people in space, which we won't, you've got 1,495,000,000 more people using resources on earth, and us sending resources into space to build shit. The cost to mine resources and maintain life in space would be so much harder than doing so on Earth, yet we can't get Earth right. Terra-forming a planet is all but a myth to us at this point. We aren't making acute changes to a planet we have everything to do it with on currently. Yet they think they'll somehow convince people they can manipulate an entire planet/moon that has temperature fluctuations drastically more uninhabitable than earths. Everyone who moves to space will die, only an idiot would think otherwise. Why, because you can't make peace on earth. We are already trying to bring weapons to space. It takes one suicidal person to end their entire community in space. When have we ever known someone willing to sacrifice a life to serve a cause. Today, yesterday, the day before, for every year mankind has existed. If you don't create a peaceful utopia, it is certain death and a massive waste of resources.

Agreed, I think with automation and technological improvements the only way forward is to supplement people's livings based off loss of work at a national level. 200 years ago, 70% of the U.S. were farmers. 1900, 38%. 1925, ~25%. 2025, less than 2%. Sure we can say about 10% of jobs surround agriculture in some way, but that is a drastic amount of work that has been offset. If we have offset 50% of the required work needed to keep our country fed, clothed and roofed, we need to develop ways to cut the workload by half for the people, and find other activities people can partake in that aren't just about making someone else money.

Id say it's more than a bit different. It would be like if you or I started going into work Monday and Tuesday, and skipping Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Except yeah, they still get paid the same. To bad we couldn't all have jobs like that.

I wasn't sure so I went looking. It fluctuates, but 150 days a year is what I found. So that would be 50 days per 4 months. Or rather that they have shown up about 40% of the norm.

How does that work, I got conceived during the day, night, or they weren't quite sure they hadn't left the house in days?

I went to Gboard and cleared my cache/data (was like 1.4gb or some shit.). Curious to see how much different it is.

That's got to be a weird part of being a parent. Like I understand both needing to trust them, and needing to monitor them, but when you start taking the training wheels off I don't think I would ever want to know about their interests unless they were telling me, because I know they would sensor it enough that I could be like, oh alright, I understand where you are coming from.. but not need to see it for myself and have it burned into my brain

I worked multiple customer facing roles when I was younger. This is the procedure for all of them, in fact it is usually a firable offense to try to stop someone with a weapon or threatened you. It is easy to defend stolen product to an insurance company. If you try to stop someone robbing a store and are injured or killed do to a policy the store had or a manager told you, the insurance isn't going to pay anything. Someone stealing "$30,000" worth of merchandise (which insurance pays you back for) and then being on cameras and not being able to use a lot of it without getting caught is much more preferable than having to pay hundreds of thousands in medical bills or millions in gross negligence if someone dies.

The fact that they say the facility will increase to be able to produce 20-30 jets a year in a couple years means to me it'll be what, 8 years before they have an order of 100. Thats a long time when you're already at war
