I was thinking the same. This will attract people who are essentially independently wealthy, and so don’t actually need this income. Which adds a nice classism based barrier to entry too.

I know plenty of people who work full time in real jobs, and also rent out a house. Renting a single building doesn’t give you enough to quit your job where I live.

It does change the way people think about history though

Were you literally talking to the land then? That’s pretty weird.

Another one? Is it common for people to find it annoying when you suggest religion is somehow a solution for things?

They should tow them outside of the environment

I like this idea. Animals care far less about the texture of meat, which I think is one of the most common complaints about meat substitute food eaten by humans.

And he also made false teeth

Piss poor management for decades has finally been noticed.

We’d probably need a few people to keep track of things, but that’s quite a powerful position so we’d need a system to switch them out for better people if they start making decisions we don’t like. And if some people are growing corn and others are catching fish, should they just trade them directly? Maybe some system to keep track of how much of next year’s corn you’re swapping for the fish I gave you last week… And grandma is pretty old now, should we feed her? Can I ask my neighbours to help feed her?

They’re specifically refuting claims that it had been sunk. I don’t see what your problem with that is.

Bike shedding.

Let’s focus on this small but easily understood problem and hope that someone somewhere else is sorting out the big and difficult stuff.

For the longest time I had a spoon which literally had sharp edges. I don’t know why I didn’t throw it away. No idea where it is now.

I don’t have personal experience, but it sounds like it is free, but the service is overstretched.

I’m more likely to blame various governments for failing to properly fund the NHS so that outreach programs can support young mothers pre/post giving birth, and providing the information about how and when to vaccinate their kids.

Otherwise they’re implicitly being told to “so their own research”.

Neat, thanks.

The BBC More or Less podcast looked into it. The problem existed pre COVID and is likely more related to cuts in healthcare funding than anyone being anti vaccines.

It’s more about access and support.

It’s not DNS.
There’s no way it’s DNS.
It was DNS

Sure, but these are loans owed by a country to another country, so as long as the terms aren’t too crippling, I personally see this as better than the alternative.

For example, the UK only paid off it’s WW2 loans in 2006
