It’s the fascist populist playbook in action again

1. Campaign under “bringing things back to the old ways”
2. Implementation of exploitation
3. Make it harder to leave
4. Make it harder for others to enter

Nah, Linux Programmers are all nerds, and they started using it, which then made basically every programmer use it, but it’s way older, 1960s sci-fi novel

I’ve explained to you, read that

Yes I’m aware the book series is from the 50s, it’s excellent.

But the image is AI slop. It’s very clear of that. Have a look at the letters around the edge, they blur and artefact in a way no human would do, and the same generic overly rendered hair that they always have in AI slop.

I’m on about the ugly-ass image, which is very very clearly made by AI.

Another telltale sign is inconsistent level of detail, stuff like a heavily rendered background element right next to a loosely rendered foreground element, something humans would never do.

Ew, AI slop

It’s fully regulated to bet on politics of other countries, we don’t all live in the USA

There’s Bookmakers, who are professionals responsible for estimating likelihood of events using maths

But they can become corrupted, or simply told “you’re not allowed to accept bets on this subject, ever, or lose your license”

It’s close enough geographically that I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s an attempt to FREEDOM them into being the 51st State

Nobody omitted that. You just have poor reading comprehension

for the initial trial period, also in my own words.

It’s no longer in the trial period. No random samples. Just have to be a member of the governing body (which does take effort and a nominal fee to join)

You do know the definition of Pilot Program, right?

Here it is;

Pilot Program: To test the feasibility of a path of action that is aiming to become more widespread, by choosing a smaller subset of the eligible people and then using the program on only that subset and analysing the results. If results are positive, then the program is approved and becomes widespread, if the results are negative or no change, then the program is not approved

The document linked is about the Pilot Program, the details of the Full Program are not yet known, but it can be presumed that it will be the exact same as the Pilot Program minus the Random Sampling (as the point is to cover everyone that is eligible)

Edit: spelling

Then you’re daft.

You have to be a part of an art organisation (as in a governing body that requires paid membership to join), and to have proof of being paid, multiple times, for making art

Being paid to create art, that’s the literal job description

And it’s not a full UBI, it’s got an assessment as part of it
