if the revenue from the tax is used for the UBI, there is no change in the money supply compared to the current situation. So, can you explain where the inflation you’re predicting is coming from?

I wear glasses, so 3D glasses on top of my regular glasses are annoying. Some 3D movies make me motion sick, too (not always, but sometimes). But i do it anyway because friends/family are worth a bit of discomfort . I don’t feel super strongly about it or anything, but that’s what I have against it.

I shall tell you the story of FrankenPod. One iPod had a broken hard drive; one had a tear in the connector to the screen. I managed to reassemble a funtioning iPod from the pieces of each. Eventually, though, it became too onorous to find the old-style iPod charging cables, so I had to move on. But I do miss FrankenPod.

I would definitely suggest getting a good chair. Being able to adjust the height and stuff is really important, especiallyfor shoulder pain. Take a look at used gaming chairs and/or keep an eye out for recently discontinued models at brick-and-mortar office supply stores (mine was super cheap because they only had the floor model left).

I hope the new keyboard and mouse do the trick! I also was experiencing wrist/arm/shoulder pain after I started working primarily on a laptop. I got a split keyboard that i can angle in a more ergonomic manner, and that single change cleared my pain up. Repetitive stress injuries suck. and I hope you find relief with your new work setup.

The Great Oxidation Event

I saw The Fellowship of the Ring nine times in theaters. Once i hit time #4 or #5, I realized i had to keep going until I could say i saw it once for each member of the fellowship.

does hiding bot accounts hide both comments and posts? I don’t mind bot comments, but bot posts are annoying because they can be quite spammy and never have any activity (at least that i’ve seen). so far, i’ve just been user-blocking them as i see them…

For me, the vaccine seemed to prevent catching the first few variants quite well, but i eventually caught the Omicron (probably, idk for sure) variant. My SO showed symptoms first, and neither of us tested (nasal swab) positive until ~24hrs after symptoms appeared.

I’d play that video game.
