The thing that's changed is how time is no longer major limiting factor.

Just doing nothing isn't great for the "human spirit", but UBI doesn't mean people can't find their own goals to pursue. The idea of something where people are not longer required to work to survive is hard to accept since many people haven't seriously considered how they could meaning outside of their careers

Thought there was no way this was from the same Haribo that makes gummy bears, but apparently it's them. Makes me curious on what other companies have licensed products that would be unexpected given their main business
