Dont know what that is, tbh. I lost interest in the series after Disney kept doing their thing. I can't speak for any of the new stuff from the last few years.

The originals were fantasy. I's not a hot take, it's fact - Swords, wizards, castles, knights, the heros journey. Some of the other shows and media since departed from that. Mandelorean is a western, solo was a heist movie, and most the shows don't fit the fantasy tropes that well. None of Star wars, to my knowledge, fits sci fi at all.

 

When the world needed you most, you vanished.

Looks like the bot has an off by 1 error somewhere in the way it counts words. Not to mention the fact that it didn't seem to remove any.

That's amazing. What's the most common issue you have encountered and how is it fixed?

[–] derekabutton 6 points 1 month ago

This is so obvious in hindsight. Thank you.

Can anybody help me with this one? I got the words. I just don't understand the theme or how they connect.

I think it is that they are $100 bills. You have to multiply the quantity of bills by $100

Perhaps I do misunderstand. What do you mean by how the division of labor is used?

My point was that people will do what they want, and if they want to do those jobs now, they would also likely want to do them in this hypothetical situation.

These Individuals may rotate as others are expected to, but they could do that relatively easily in the current system already. High valued education and experience is sought after and the opportunity for them is higher than your everyday person.

People don't become research scientists to make money, especially after they take on tons of debt that will take decades to pay off. Does more need to be said about their motivations? If you give people what they require, they will do what they want. Many of them want to do specialized jobs because they want to. Just because many will not specialize does not mean that nobody will specialize.

Choice is the point. And some will choose to specialize.

WHY. DO. THEY ALWAYS SEND THE POOR. (Repeat a dozen or so times)

Sorry but no way they are non political. That's just one example from a more well known song. Haven't they publicly spoken on the Armenian genocide, too? If you need to separate your art from your politics, perhaps you should re review your politics. It's inherent in most aspects of life.

Physics vs metaphysics, the branch of philosophy that studies time.
