Austin experimented with giving people $1,000 a month. They spent the no-strings-attached cash mostly on housing, a study found

  • For profit housing and for profit healthcare are abominations.

  • We don't know either. It's just fucked and nobody cares.

    • You are granted one of the following super powers: which one do you choose?

  • Two of the other powers are in some ways worse than not having powers. Flying slower than you can drive a car is pretty pointless unless in extremely nice situations. Then running near the speed of soud could cause you permanent damage to the ears or eyes just from pushing through the air.

    Invisibility is fine but mostly useful for nefarious purposes. But theoretically you could get a form or invisibility through telekinesis if you can control photons. You probably wouldn't be able to see or hold it as long without suffocating but it's something.

    • Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do. The generation that grew up with the internet isn’t invulnerable to becoming the victim of online hackers and scammers.

  • Sensationalism- the use of exciting or shocking stories or language at the expense of accuracy.

    You clearly grasp it is surprising or shocking and you clearly grasp that a higher percentage of Z are online in their generation than the percentage of boomers online.

    You've got to be trolling at this point.

  • You just broke it down on how it sensationalized some completely bs data because boomers aren't online as much as zoomers. You've gotta be trolling with this

  • So you agree the article is sensationalist? Why link me a study that is irrelevant for no reason?

  • That study seems to be a survey of college students knowledge of cyber security not anything to do with what you were claiming before as there are no boomers in question.

  • No I mean the source. You're just being anecdotal and that's ok.

  • I'm not even a zoomer. I'm just trying to not be sensationalist like the source.

  • I'm not sure that is any different than any other generation. Hell, I doubt you know the age of all the people you're talking about.

    If you ask my grandparents the whole US is being destroyed by immigrants despite their day-to-day being the same for decades.

    All I gotta do is point out Newsmax and Fox News viewership to counter this stupid Zoomer vs Boomer shit. Just because they are less terminally online doesn't mean they are less gullible.

  • Well the companies specifically. If we're talking about two companies competing with each other it's in what they're trying to achieve.

  • By that same rational: My not getting a raise is a lost sale because if I had more money I would buy more. So is corporate profit a lost sale?

  • Artists called the camera theft too. The problem with protecting ones livelihood is a tale as old as time. It's ok for the robot to replace laborers and it's ok for the computer to replace accountants but the machine making pictures is where I draw the line.

    Your livelihood is always under threat because capitalism designed it that way.
