    I think that was probably intended to be subversive but it suits my purposes so it's accidentally good.

    What were the good parts?

    All I know about it was modernising the church and trying to turn it into hippy bullshit.

    As much as I hate him he is correct: Any resource that costs human labour is not a "right." Someone has to work for my food, why shouldn't it be me? Same goes for water.

    The big issue with what nestle were doing in California is that they were abusing government power to gain access to a scarce resource and profit off of it.

    From what I recall the context was discussing the morality of nestle bottling spring water and selling it.

    Lefties were arguing that water should be free and no one should be allowed to sell it except the government.

    There were problems with what nestle were doing, but it was a lot more subtle than "selling water is bad."

    Specifically it was in CA in an area with an already low water table. There were all kinds of state restrictions in place for local businesses and residents to stop any one person from hoovering up all the water and causing problems for everyone else.

    But like most western states a good chunk of the land is federal, so nestle went around the restrictions by obtaining a licence to bottle water on federal land, thus making huge profits from a resource everyone else has very restricted access to.

    Well, there's usually luxury and convenience markets for bottled water, but yes that does add to it.

    Come to think of it... I wonder if they deliberately tried to turn it into a "water should be free vs. pay up commie" argument just to get rid of the subtleties. Evil genius move if so.

    Venice used to have a system where every square had a huge hollow under it filled with sand so it'd gradually filter water for public use. Then they had a well in the middle.

    Public fountains originally had the same purpose.

    It used to be considered an honour for wealthy men to contribute to their community by funding a public resource like an aquaduct or even a sewer. It was considered a good way to preserve your name for posterity if there weren't any good wars to die in.

    Nowadays we have this weird idea that any infrastructure worth investing in *must* be paid for by the state or something's wrong. The most people pay for is a park bench.

    Right?

    Also concept art, low effort projects, textures and other small crap no one's going to notice.

    AI Art basically replaces shitty stock photos and bad devient-art scribblers, that's about it.

    It will get better over time but the result will never be less art or less jobs for artists.

    Huh? I do like it.

    My point is that the only artists really threatened by AI are the lowest quality ones.

    I think it's a highly useful tool and I use it all the time. I look forward to seeing how it develops.

    "wan"

    Dublinese slang for any woman or girl. As in "Dat wan over dere," or "The face on yer wan," or "He's aff chasin' chun wans."

    From what I read it started during WW1. Some riveter started writing it in inaccessible places before they were sealed up, so when they were opened back up again for repairs they'd find his drawing.

    Eventually it caught on and seamen started drawing it everywhere.

    You're not wrong, I fully agree.

    I'm just amazed it got any traction at all. I assumed no one would want one.

    Even so, it did succeed. I assumed it'd be a money sink like microsoft phone or microsoft slate.

    With all the bird flu stuff lately they restricted "free range" birds so much from being let outside that the lost the classification. They had to put a sticker on the packets calling them "barn raised."

    Exactly. And even in supermarkets they're restricting the number of cash lanes now, plus a bunch of small vendors in my city are card only now. From their perspective it's more secure and less hassle.

    Any competitor to that system will have to offer the same advantages.
