No discovery is useless. Even if it isn’t used now, it could lay the groundwork for more useful discoveries later.

Just put the laser high enough above the ground, like in orbit, and nothing will ever reach the lens.

How exactly is that a strawman argument? You act like technology does nothing for us. I agree that fighting for higher wages and other protections also makes things better. I don’t understand why any of this makes the luddites right. Tech literally does work for us. You say tech makes people appear richer but it really only hurts us. What about medicine? What about the learning we can do through the Internet? What about the million other things that we can do that our ancestors couldn’t?

Yeah bring back telephone operators too while we’re at it! No one should ever lose a job! Jobs are a person’s whole life and they should get to do it even if something else could do it better!

Stopping tech from taking jobs just doesn’t make any sense. If we did have the perfect economic system, having that tech would lower the overall amount of work that needs to be done. That is a good thing. We should fight for fair labor practices, but fighting to keep labor itself around is the wrong idea. Why keep useless jobs around? Just to keep people employed?

People like you are the problem. All this pointless violence and you just want more.

Important note: Those prices are per year.

I could use a good site like this

Perfect. Then you won’t have to pay for anything.

I imagine everyone has some slightly risky things they like to do with their free time. The way to sell it is to recognize that we’re all paying for something else other people want to do in some way or another that we don’t take advantage of ourselves. By collectively contributing to society, we can make this whole experience of life worth living for everyone. I, personally, don’t want to be forced into a plastic bubble of safety for my entire life.

People need to be allowed to enjoy their lives even if it has a cost. I’m not advocating for driving while under the influence. I’m advocating for being able to make your own choices about your own health. I think it goes further than just drugs. We even make laws preventing people from swimming in public water because they could drown. Shit happens. We can’t let cost and perfect safety ruin all the fun in the world. Just because some people can’t handle it, doesn’t mean it should be removed from life entirely.

Yeah cuz sitting on a couch watching tv is such a costly mistake. I bet you’re pro gun too and just fine with paying for the mistakes of those people

Why does it even matter if it’s safe? Why shouldn’t you be able to make the decision for yourself?

Why would people want this? How else do you find videos to watch?

I completed a ticket made in 2011 today!

Bro what? Just go somewhere cheaper. They’re like $20 normally

Try out Connect

But what if 10 mil is enough for me to never work again and just spend all my time doing stuff I actually care about? I might even do work that matters to me that doesn’t normally pay well if I can control it myself.

I did. Change is hard but it’s hard to argue that we would be better off without that robotics. It does a lot of work for us and we can all have better stuff because of it. In a better world we’d be excited because it means we all have to do less work but the upper class just keeps finding more stuff for us to do.
