They kinda did that in I Am Legend
Just when you think the “last person on earth” fantasy has been fully explored!
Last time they did it in africa… well I’m sure the following starvation was just a coincidence.
Speculating about the disappearance of money would be like speculating about disappearance of a thermomether. Even if every specimen were to be destroyed, someone would reinvent it.
Even if all basic needs are to be taken care of, somebody would always come up with something more. Other people would naturally want it. That would quickly lead to a realization that there is something like a value, and also a need to measure it somehow.
Could be pieces of seashells we exchange directly, or a massive database of who makes what for whom, but the result is the same.
Our perception of poverty and luxury would rapidly change. Food and roof over head alone would quickly be considered inadequate.
Just look how in the rich parts of the world we consider running water, sewage, electricity and internet as something non-negotiable. In some places those are still luxury.
There was a cuban peso and convertible peso, but apparently they’ve been merged 3 years ago. So the sanctions probably are the main barrier to free trade now.
Aren’t cubans still banned from using the real money?
The more I’m eager to take a piss out of someone, more I emberass myself.
I really wish for them to hit the jackpot and break the cycle, but so far, everything valuable in the region was quickly turned into poverty and famine. It’s like a bad magic trick.
Wait. There was a plan to release anyone? I thought the guy who invites an armed military observers to the parliament voting session wouldn’t bother with that.
Move the price? Talk is cheap… and so is 1 BTC per year.
This is just Bukele craving some attention. I hate the term attention whore, but can’t find a better description.
As opposed to their national currency… oh, wait! :D
making people concerned they are being bullied into always being signed into the service
So, the majority WANTS to see the political propaganda, endless livestream of chill music to relax and study to, a bunch of spoiled kids making faces, and something indistinguishably small being pointed at by a huge red arrow?
And here are the requirements:
Notice how they do not say anything about the automated driving system itself.
Firefox has profiles, so you can further separate your work browsing from personal browsing. Each profile acts like a separate instance with it’s own history, bookmarks, addons, everything…
But are there any working examples? I know there were some attempts at creating communes in the US. It usually ended up by people arguing so much that the group dissolved, or a charismatic leader taking over, which lead to a whole bunch of abuse.
There is no communism without a dictatorship. Nobody is going to donate everything they make to the collective, if there’s no threat of gulag lingering around.
The only thing amazon had was a brand. They’ve sold it for short term profit and now it’s just a shittier aliexpress. The question is, why not go for the real thing?
Why crash a car when you can crash a plane? I always considered this to be my final quest in this kind of scenario. Learn to fly a plane as big as possible. Then probably get lost and crash while looking for an airport.
