I thought you meant friendship with the sexual partner, not as a skill / attitude with anyone. Nevermind then

What about hookups though? I’d say there isn’t much human connection there, and certainly not friendship.
This thread is weird. It seems like you all never heard of compost.
They took over the Roman Empire. They had a pretty good claim.
This is a common question in economics.
It’s called technological unemploymemt and it’s a type of structural unemployment.
Economists generally believe that this is temporary. Workers will take new jobs that are now available or learn new skills to do so.
An example is how most of the population were farmers, before the agricultural revolution ans the industrial revolution. Efficiency improvements to agriculture happened, and now there’s like only about 1% of the population in agriculture. Yet, most people are not unemployed.
There was also a time in Englans when a large part of the population were coal miners. Same story.
Each economic and technological improvement expands the economy, which creates new jobs.
There’s been an argument by some, Ray Kurzweil if I remember correctly, but others as well, that we will eventually reach a point where humans are obsolete. There was a time when we used horses as the main mode of land transportation. Now, this is very marginal, and we use horses for a few other things, but really there’s not that much use for them. Not as much as before. The same might happen to humans. Machines might become better than humans, for everything.
Another problem that might be happening is that the rate of technological change might be too fast for society to adapt, leaving us with an ever larger structural unemployment.
One of the solution that has been suggested is providing a basic income to everyone, so that losing your job isn’t as much of a big problem, and would leave you time to find another job or learn a new skill to do so.
I often fantasize that one day I’d start my company and require that all resumes be submitted without a name on it.
Are you saying you’ve seen stalls that did not have walls or doors?
Interesting.
Here in Québec, most towns and villages either have a native name, or saint’s name.
Once, as a teenager, I switched channels on the TV, and there was a movie. A caption appeared on screen: “Rhode Island”.
“Nice!” I thought. “I always like movies set in cultures that are very foreign to mine.”
As the movie went on, I was increasingly confused, as those Greeks, or Turks, seemed very similar to US Americans, and the setting appeared to be the USA. (It was dubbed in French, so I couldn’t tell from the language)
I soon figured that it must be a location in the USA named after an Old World location.
And get out only for winter? No thanks. I wait for spring and summer half of the year.
Thank you. I think anyone who spends a lot of time reading about history comes to these conclusions.
How does the band pronounce it?
Many things. The biggest issue, I’d say, is the unability to create tables in Calc. This severely limits productivity.
And I use both OneNote and Xournal++, and the latter isn’t really a replacement to the former, save for a few features.
Not denying but it sounds surprising to me. I wonder how it works
So an IRC chatroom is social media?
The first 3 sentences are actually coherent. The last 2 too. But the first 3 don’t belong with the last 2. It’s like they’re 2 different posts.
Also, Myanmar. Everone seems to forget the young democracy trying to survive.
Yea, really not wanting friends would be unusual but I figure out if that’s what you want, hookups are the only solution. If you have good looks enough and are not socially offputting.
Also, prostitutes. For this, you just need to not be socially offputting, and to have money.
Sorry I’m stuck overanalyzing solutions for a likely troll.
