    This is not bad, but I’d suggest for large urban centres you’d probably want to have more than one to reduce waste on transportation. 

    There are a lot of assumptions that are being made with regard to skill sets and learning but given a large enough population it’s doable (the example of bakers, not everyone can bake, but with a large enough population you could have skilled bakers every day, and some would still be able to have days off).

    The problems of course come into play with: not everyone wants to live in a city, you have greed and other negative elements of the human condition to contend with, and who does all the really shit work like sewage maintenance, plumbing, animal control etc.

    Other problems come when it’s more efficient to manufacture on economies of scale. And of course some resources really are scarce, and so competition for them will still exist. 

    you could have them all over according to community desires.  small ones that are just a garden shed with tools any neighbor can use.  medium ones with.. books, sewing machines, art supplies, wood shop supplies, whatever.  huge ones with basically everything.  obviously you can't manufacture ships in some city center.  or cars.  but we need less of those anyway.  but we need more trains.  this isn't a replacement for modern supply chains and industry, but a replacement for modern work environments and production of basic goods like curtains, clothes, food.  it's meant to be whatever the people who use it want.  they can vote and get a new CNC milling machine or 3d printer with the funds.  or a new sawhorse.  but on a larger scale and much more stuff

    "Librarization of everything. Large buildings where people can work on anything they want in groups or alone by free access to any tool or equipment needed for any form of work. Anything one could need. A mall where everything is free but communal. Walkable and integrated with natural outside surroundings. Efficient conveyor belt based automatically routed transportation of objects between any two points. Spontaneous supply chain generation according to communal needs, as indicated by the number of people who are doing a particular type of work with a particular conveyor belt routing. The most important centerpiece of every city. Increased in complexity and breadth in larger cities. But with easy access to all cities proportional to their size. A place designed for work, in the most free and voluntary way possible, but also optimally and without wasted work through compulsory but free education on tool usage and ability to manufacture whatever is being made. Encouraging the workers to not need to buy any commodity except certain subsets of items not manufacturable by amateurs or on a small scale."

    This is directly counter to Musk's ideology and real world behavior.  He wants top-down hierarchy and rigid worker exploitation

  3. and yes, having pineapples available to anyone in the world is not the reality for most of the world, or a sustainable reality in general.  no, you can not have every commodity.

    Sounds like a really massive convoluted overpopulated hamster enclosure where everyone takes turns running on the wheel

    yes, but it's honest about itself.  we have to work or we will die, this is one of the places we can do it

    sorry, no bread for you today, sir. the baker decided he's had it, and is at home watching sopranos in his underpants.

    the kitchen is freely available for anyone to bake bread, if they don't know how they can follow the guides programmed into AR glasses until they do know how

    >western media:

    the poverty of private capitalist owned media.  where's the "incredible scene" when joe biden said he'd veto medicare for all if it was signed by congress on his desk, that actually matters?

    ^^ which "major crypto" are you talking about because if you're holding any crypto and you're not steaking or trading, then you should know when a hard fork is happening. if you don't, you eventually will. i personally don't (and wouldn't) hold any stablecoin so if you're talking about those i'd just figure you've been scammed and it's a case of whether you'll get out fine or not fine (with a loss).

    why would anyone care about random hard forks from some idiots, i dont keep track of these and have no intention.  everyone who holds bitcoin for example has tons of hard fork coins sitting there they aren't even aware of.  sometimes you can technically sell them but it requires careful security practices and wallet management (as in, do NOT expose private keys of your bitcoin wallet to the hard fork wallet software which are sometimes backdoored, you have to transfer all your bitcoins first, then open your hard fork wallet and move them to an exchange, massive hassle)

    EDIT:
    To explain further, I am talking about (and I believe the law is talking about) hard forks like Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Cash, etc., worthless shitcoins created as hard forks

    i think, to me, what would be cool is if there was a series in the style of blade runner 2049 with no plot. and i mean NO plot. each episode is just like wandering around, maybe some stuff happens, maybe not. episodes are like 90 mins.

    I had to block Quora.  It was all America sucks this, America is worse at that. It was constant. No other topics. 

    i wish this anti-america quora is what i was seeing.  instead its always random speeches that have little to do with the original question.  hard to even explain why i hate quora but its something like that
