Don't make me add your name to the list, person reading this. Behave. You won't like me when I'm adding your name to the list...
People will just make stupid shit and sell it on Etsy. We'll have a whole lower class economy built on selling eachother stupid handmade knick knacks. They'll become status symbols.
and more simply, we need cash to live.No, we don't. Cash is artificial. And sooner or later there'll be universal basic income (UBI) in every first world country.
I don't know which one is worse, the current world where we kill ourselves at work, or that upcoming world where we (or the future generations) will be more or less larvae.
I'd be fine with being a (an?) larvae (larva?)visitors can't see pics , please register or login
We all should all move to Nepal to study Buddhism become a skinhead monk eat tofu everyday and live life in it's purest formits*

Funnily enough, it literally is the vision of one of the candidate for the french election. And while cash may be artificial, you're buying services and goods with it, and you most likely won't be able to distinguish yourself from others with UBI, unless it is very high for everyone, which is an utopia. While I hate working, I can't help but feel uncomfortable if I'm getting paid doing nothing, and I'm not alone, since a survey shown that 70% of french people would still be looking for some kind of professional activity. I could find it, but meh.What do you mean by "distinguish yourself from others"? Why would you want to distinguish yourself from others?
500kg nerds in front of their computer all day for a lifetimeThat's my dream tbh. I have the body of a monkey and the brain of a pig.
With all the nice things to do in the world, you'd have to have some sort of anhedonia to feel uncomfortable not working. Shit, work out, read a book, write a book, paint a picture, play music, learn, cook, travel, take up a sport, spend more time with friends and family, build something, go camping, visit an amusement park, learn to dance.Spend more time trolling the interwebs
So you have no idea what you're talking about yet you feel confident in making predictions? I mean, that's what almost everyone does, but it's still amazing.
also, although we had some breakthroughs with deep learning I think that it´ll still take some centuries until robots will do the actual majority of the work today, so I wouldn´t place my bets on that happening anytime soon(tm)
tl;dr feeling superior by being useless is stupid and makes you a fat hobo nobody wants, as long as there isn´t impressive dedication, hobbies won´t personally push you as far as jobs can do. You first gotta pick the right job thoughFeeling superior by being a wage slave and working (i.e., wasting half of your waking time or more) to increase the profits of your master is stupid and makes you a slave nobody wants (except your master for as long as you can increase his profits, then you're thrown aside like a spent condom).
What do you mean by "distinguish yourself from others"? Why would you want to distinguish yourself from others?
And you feel uncomfortable because you've been conditioned to be a wage slave since you could talk.
Money is artificial and when AI and robots are producing more than we can consume (post-scarcity economy) there's no reason not to give it out for free.

Wonder how i'll get money, or do the machines herald an age of pure communism?From the government. Universal basic income.
It's also disheartening that most of what we're learning today will be completely useless in the (relatively) near future.That's the real kicker, isn't it? A lot of people - most, maybe - will have spent their entire adult lives learning and doing something that suddenly becomes entirely obsolete. Then they'll have the qualifications to work at Mickey D's -- except that'll probably be automated too.
"Hobbies" can push you as far as a job. Why couldn't they? That makes no sense. Show some scientific backing for this absurd claim.
A lot of people just lack the dedication, there has to be something that pushes you to your goal, unless you got lots of willpower.Doing whatever I like.
But I´m curious now: What´s your idea of "based" living? How do you spend your life?
Doing whatever I like.I rest my case.
I rest my case.Was your case that not everyone is as dumb as you, i.e., doesn't need to be forced to work to find things to do? If so, you made your case well.
If most governments in the world implement 'human quotas' in the workplace like they're already talking about (as a feeble attempt to maintain the status quo), then Xant if your job gets replaced by AI you'll simply be unemployed. Your 'Universal basic income' will just be job-seeker benefits if your country has those.What are you even talking about? You should perhaps look into some of those concepts you mentioned, right now you're making zero sense.
If that's all you need in order to do whatever you want, why dont you stop working and just start living on those sweet benefits now?
You see 'technology can replace jobs' and assume society will adapt so that work is no longer required for you to maintain a basic quality of life.It'd only make sense if I knew as little as you about economics and AI. Perhaps once the AI overlords arrive, I can have a temporary mind wipe and be able to understand and sympathize with your argument.
But I see the EU, the UK etc already debating legislation in preparation for the AI revolution. One of the many subjects, the protection of jobs for humans. Society's going to be rewritten overnight so that every single citizen get generous pay for doing nothing? Or, governments of the world perform the minimum necessary tickbox exercise to make sure humans still need to work for their money? The only difference between now and then, X% of jobs depending on the quota will be lost.
My argument will make more sense if you get your dearest wish and lose your job to an AI.
completely unaware that not all that much has actually changed in the last 50 years

That's it. I'm calling Kim Jong if they have a free spot in one of their reeducation camps for a worringly work-shy mongol.That's outrageous. You need to capitalize Mongol.

One of my few regrets in life might just be that I won't be able to sit by Xant's bedside as he dies a senile old fool (if he can even last that long off unemployment checks, err, sorry... "UBI"). I'd love to hear him crying out "quick, plug me into the computer, upload my consciousness to the internet!" completely unaware that not all that much has actually changed in the last 50 years, and such things are still little more than fantasy. Alas, I'd never stoop so low as to fly over to whatever third world country he's living in just to be his only company as he passes.Jobe or Lucy? visitors can't see pics , please register or login

You are finnish, so i guess it checks out. Just dont get angry and take it out on your wife.My waifu never complains....
As a work-shy invalid you are among the first to go into the gas. At least you can use your last breath to discuss the latest holohoax evidence with the mudslime refugee next to you.

The best part about this thread is how Xant shittalks all the "wage slaves" when all he does with his expansive amount of free time is browse the crpg forums anyways... Nigga, we're doing the exact same thing you are but getting paid a fuckton more than your shitty benefits will ever cover.
in your logic though it means that your parents are also useless, shitty wagecucks and they´re stupid enough to pay for your wellbeing, cause you outsmarted them by being their son? Just as you outsmarted the system by being officially psychologically disabled with "crippling depression"?Not only yes, but FUCK yes.
Welfare? I prefer to think of it as tribute, like the Englishmen paid to the Danes, a payment so as to stop the Danes from raiding and visiting harm upon the poor Sheeple aka Englishmen aka wagecucks...

but you still raid your parents fridge and purse, so where´s the tribute? Not shitting on the kitchen table every morning?You're projecting LMAO
So you are either a wagecuck or a thief and a terrorist in that scenario?

BAAA!!!!! Wake up wagecucks! It's Monday! Time for sheep to go to work and earn a pay check so that it can be taxed and given to me. My lifestyle isn't free and YOU are both the sheep and the wool... LMAO!

It's labor day, so no work today though.I don't hold with that sort of laziness. How does it even make sense? "No work on LABOR day"? Oh well. I guess I can allow the sheep ONE day to rest and recharge their batteries so that they can work twice as fast the rest of the year.
Do you get mad when the dog eats your scraps?YES, I can't afford to waste any food
Wake up, Xant. Your family is worried about you.If only.... :cry:

First you need to go through an examination, should take a few weeks with regular checkups before they determine your state of mind, get some injury, preferably in a work related accident but make sure it maimed you for life. And most importantly have a system that supports it. Good luck.That's badvice, don't get an injury bro, just be depressed.... it's a real condition these days.... easy to get permanent disability...

But you'll get more money that way, no?Why would you? Depression is a physical disability like any other. These days....
