Yeah for instance it would be awesome if 5 out of 6 times i click a link on kbin it could come up with an actual page and not an error

“I simply couldn’t care enough”

So you are saying that the people infected with the zombie disease are all going to be cannibals? Somehow this doesn’t sound like a good news.

Oh deer

care to elaborate? i agree with the sentiment but laugh is not an argument

To clarify, these tokens would be in addition to money, not a replacement for them. It’s a concept more similar to the carbon markets but they would be at the level of the citizen.

That’s not what i’m suggesting, and the limits and costs associated with externalities could be tuned so that the life of a normal person would not be altered if not in the sense that you would get additional tokens that you can keep or sell depending on your needs and personal values. I can elaborate if it’s unclear.

The real change would be that if a billionaire wants to live that kind of lifestyle, they would have to gather enough tokens from the market. This would really enable some sort of trickle down because they would have to buy the tokens from you and you would always be able to tell them “no” and keep them from polluting.

“The chinese leader Biden”?

Translated: McKenzie just wants the sweet money and is trying to gaslight us into thinking platforming nazis is ok.

When are we going to introduce tokens to handle externalities like this? It shouldn’t be possible or at least easy to abuse resources like this.

Btw that seems pretty cool to have in the house, and the also furnace is always useful especially if you have many enemies

Something like that but with amplifiers to repeat over tens of kilometers

Now i’m visualizing a world where long distance communication is done with sound and you have screaming pipes across the continent

Yeah wtf is reverse immigration?

I am old inside

Now this is diversification

None of what you said makes any sense to me. Of course EU states are very different right now, and the language barrier is huge.
I’ll say some debatable things now but I don’t want to write a dissertation so i need to take shortcuts.
To unify Europe for real compromises must be made and an european identity must be created, the USA pulled this off almost entirely thanks to having a shorter history and also thanks to things like hollywood pushing calculated stereotypes (an arguably positive form of propaganda). European populations have been fighting each other for thousands of years so it will take some effort, but I think the reciprocal hate is at a legendary minimum nowadays, and there is a lot of mobility.
I may agree that going straight to unification may be premature, but to be honest the usa have a great deal of diversity and still make it work.

Yes and then you wake up more tired than when you went to sleep (talking of my experience with lucid dreaming).

The humanist principle that we are all humans is too often forgotten

Many times during the 50s, 70s and 80s republicans won by 10% or more, and this is the popular vote. They were not a random fluke.

I agree we should not be so divisive, but if what’s happening is not what you want you should try to make yourself heard.
