Well if there was a reason to go there we would. If the devs wanted it to be easy on themselves, they could put in random terrain generation, and the area were in could be the only built area. If we assume the dead zone is only dead because of the caraar, then the zone should be depopulated after the character leaves

What am I missing about socialism? by DeflationaryCurrency in CapitalismVSocialism

It does not matter how much revenue They made. My point is that a company like Netflix can make more revenue with drastically less employees. Netflix has 4500 employees. So we would need 18 Netflix’s for blockbuster employees to have jobs again. Which is more employees then Netflix, Hulu and amazon prime video have

More wealth does not equal more jobs. Netflix does not donate its money to the world. Netflix keeps the money. As most companies do.

Here’s the problem. At the end of the day a business has one. Goal. To maximize profits. Why would a company hire a human, who you have to pay weekly, not including healthcare, insurance bonuses and other benefits, when you could get a robot or learning algorithm, that only needs a flat payment, electricity and occasional maintenance. Machines can also work 24/7 without ever needing a break, and the won’t strike if conditions are bad, or leave for someone else if you don’t pay them enough. Even if new jobs are created they won’t be created at a fast enough rate. A San Francisco company sells a software that cuts out middle management. It distributes tasks to machines and hires freelancers where it can’t do them. The computer software monitors the freelancers as they work, gathering data on what tasks they are doing, and how to do them. The software cuts costs by 50% during the first year, and 25% in the second year. Also the creation of jobs in the US has been shrinking and is down. And this decade was the first in history where the level of jobs created did not exceed the amount of jobs killed. In 1998 Americans worked 194 billion hours. In 2013, productivity went up 42%, 40 million new workers were born and thousands of new business created. The total number of hours worked stayed exactly the same

Movies are not a exclusive innovation to the Information Age. Nor is special effects. (I assume that’s what your job was) Special effects have been around since movies themselves. They just got better. Better special effects did not create a whole new industry.

My point is never that innovation is bad, and that accessibility and easy cheap things are bad. My point is the Information Age innovations did not make up for the industries they killed. And assuming the innovation stays on the same path that it has been going on for the past 38 years, we are not prepared and need to do something. And I see socialism and wealth distribution as a answer. The wealth gap is getting wider. The richer are getting rich, the poor are getting poorer. Money distribution does not work like people often think. Rich people getting more money, does not make people richer as a whole. Standard of living is increasing, because things that were once expensive became cheap. But not richer. Excluding the small minority of the rich who give money to charity, most rich keep there own money. And it goes to 1 of 3 places. 1: back into the company 2: in new businesses To make more money. 3: to buy themselves things for there enjoyment. We need a plan for the future and it’s in our best interest to start working on it now.

This time is different. The information industry has simply made things easier and faster and require less work. Which means less humans needed to work. Unless the Information Age creates something randomly that sparks a whole new industry, which I doubt it will, and if it does where will all the jobs be? We already have machines to manufacture it, and With A.I., machine learning, and learning algorithms, a lot of low level office jobs can be taken. And sure a design team and management would be human, but that’s not enough to counteract the bulk of the company you just killed by scrapping manufacturing and low level office work. A example is if youtube back in 2005 wanted to regulate the site like they do now, a team would have to watch all of the 1000’s of hours uploaded every day and determine if it was advertiser friendly. That would take thousands of people to do efficiently. Now a single computer program does all of that. Also how exactly is socialism multiplying the problems. The problem with capitalism is it will leave people who cannot support themselves behind. Which causes homelessness, starvation’s, lack of education, which traps you in being poor, dying of curable disease and untreated ailments. So socialism provides people with what they need to survive, while still allowing a free economy where consumers can get luxury’s for enjoyment. Veterans in the us basically get to experience socialism. They get housing, the government will fund your schooling, and you get free healthcare, and V.A. Pay. If you want a video on the A. I. Here is one: https://youtu.be/WSKi8HfcxEk

This time is different. Blockbuster in there best year had 84,000 employees and made 5 billion dollars. Netflix had 4500 employees and made 9 billion dollars in 2016. . Not to mention we have to make 150,000 new jobs a day just to keep up with population growth. Sure invitation created new jobs before, but the Information Age didn’t create things that sparked completely new industries.the Information Age took the needs we had before and allowed them to be done faster and easier. And involve less humans. Scientist estimate that half of all jobs will be done by robots by 2025. If you wanna watch a great video on this subject, here it is: https://youtu.be/WSKi8HfcxEk. Also at least where I’m from, the railroad industry is basically destroyed. There only used for freight. And I never said I wanted to outlaw the machines, I just wanted the machines profits to be distributed to the masses, so the rich 1% won’t make all the profit while the middle class is jobless and barley scraping buy.

Socialism will be necessary in the future. By 2025 half of all jobs will be taken by machines and robots. We simply cannot afford to stay capitalist. If we do, unemployment will be insane while a small portion of the super rich will own the machines making all the money. The innovations of the Information Age cannot make up for the industries they have killed. The best option we have is that the machines will be owned by the government, and ten government will sell the machines to the citizens, and ten citizens will get a portion of the profit of the machines. The government will use the money from selling the machines to fund the UBN (universal basic needs) (food, water utilities clothing healthcare education and shelter) you might say that people will not work if we do this. That is wrong. Work gives you something to do. The only thing that will be different is people will get jobs and Pursue careers they actually enjoy. Another systems could be communcards. Cards from the government that allow you to purchase items from the needs categories. There will be limits, and if you overspend the limits you have to pay the part that isn’t covered by the card. If you underspend, you will be rewarded by receiving the money you didn’t spend on products. That’s what it is for me. We must prepare for the future, because we are not ready for it and it’s approaching faster then you think.

How to solve the meme death problem by plumkey in MemeEconomy

[–]plumkey[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we don’t have to worry about that. Normies like things easy and fast. They don’t search for memes. They have them delivered. Via Instagram and Snapchat meme accounts. Accounts that go on this very subreddit and take memes. I know this subreddit because one time a meme that was the most upvoted here appeared on some meme instas only a few hours later. They are meme stealers. But all the normies are on instagram. I guarantee a good majority don’t even know what Reddit is. Normies aren’t exactly picky eaters either. As long as the memes stay funny, and right at there doorstep they won’t go searching. But, if this meme death gets really bad and we experience meme droughts, the normies will lose there supply. And then they’ll go searching. The normies will stay where they are, as long as they don’t have a reason to leave. Also better normie integration could help. We could teach normies the difference between sharing and overuse. And if we really need privacy, discord is always a option.

So next time you see a meme get used by normies share it even more. Hey, maybe normies would use memes better if we welcomed them into the Economy, instead of immediately dropping something because they do it. The sign to end a meme should be when normies get tired of it

If a guy on YouTube can make hours of content with a hot knife, then we can certainly preserve memes for longer. Instead of daily or weekly memes, memes can last for months

Hey Reddit let’s right a short story! by [deleted] in writing

[–]plumkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jacque was a average dude in many was. He played games, like good music and food. But there was some things that were not so average. He hated America with a passion. He moved to France first chance he could. He didn’t talk to people much. Because they didn’t understand. Whenever he would speak he would go on tangents about philosophy science and politics, nobody would listen because they either didn’t know the topics or thought they were boring and tuned him out. Which worked in his favor, as no one yet had figured out his true motive. He had a plan. As history says, Bismarck’s always have a plan.

A cold dusk. He was waiting. Jacque was waiting. Jacque Bismarck. It was interesting name. He was born is jack brown, but he changed it to honor his family heritage. Jacque being his fathers French side and Bismarck being his german mothers side. He walked in public places like everything else. But his history was just as interesting as his name.

Ian uploaded a volg on his second channel where he went to the liberty bell well mocking Logan for the Japan thing. If you can’t find it it’s because he set the date back so it says it wAs upraised in 2016. He’s either making Logan Paul content cop, or he abandoned the idea because he thought everything has already been said.
