    Do you think this is going to force us towards universal basic income?

    Naw we gunna wait until robots do all the basics and income has little meaning. Until then we'll push people to the jobs revolving around said machines and technology etc. Suck it low skill workers. inb4 basic programming, IT, robot works become the new "low" skill jobs

    Walked into a walmart yesterday that did not have a single register open aside from self serve scan yourself registers.

    Like, by the time I am done scanning and bagging my own shit all my shit should be free for the work I just did.

    I'd be lying if I haven't contemplated tricks like that for my kids. My son had a bad case of poison oak recently and the dr. prescribed him Benadryl each night before bed time. Easiest quickest bedtimes ever! (I have never actually done anything like this to be clear and I would be absolutely PISSED if a daycare worker did something like that to my kids.)

    Funny thing is Benadryl instructions/warnings specifically say don't give this to children for nap time or something to that effect

    This lol. And while I'm not opposed to drinking things aren't the tastiest I expect them to actually get me buzzed without having to drink so much I'm peeing like a racehorse.

    I never understood why people drank it. I've only ever seen Caucasians drinking them and getting buzzed in person but that's in a General Lee with enough to file the passenger side with cans.

    It's not beer though so the comparison doesn't really work. It's closer to coolers or mikes or something

    Also note that 6souls converted from ABV to proof while you gave ABV for bud. So it's more like comparing 4-6 for bud to 3 to 8 which is pretty similar. Also the article makes it sound like that's the current drinks content not what coca cola is going to be though it does seem to be targeting the same crowd who like low ABV sweet drinks
