Yes but you don’t have anything to make power to charge it :/

Their trackpad can and does work via USB so ???

I have one of their trackpads and it works great with Ubuntu over USB but not over Bluetooth for some reason. (It connects, but Ubuntu doesn’t handle it well.)

I don’t believe everything on the internet is a lie (although of course I don’t believe everything on the internet is true either). You have to read it and judge for yourself.

In the case of getting medical advice, there is an inherent bias to finding anecdotes on the internet. The people who post are going to be the people who have something to say. That’s going to be either people who had a life changing positive experience, or who have something to complain about. The middle-ground experience is underrepresented.

However, there is value in anecdotes. The doctor can tell you high likely a given side effect might be, but people on the internet might have a better description of what that experience is like.

I try to take in as much information as I can when I am making an informed decision, including things like asking my doctor, finding anecdotes on the internet, and finding actual scientific papers.

In a disaster situation they have to decide who does or doesn’t get treatment:

It comes full circle because the proposed solution is to increase the number of people who are able to work, with the idea that those people will take on more jobs, and those jobs will fund pensions.

I think this is a bad idea because we already have more workers than useful jobs. An increase in the population wont really help.

Your response was

It’s not about necessary jobs, it’s about paying into social security / pensions.

In my answer those are two topics that are not directly related, although they are linked by both having to do with the economy.

Hence I gave responses to both topics.

If the jobs aren’t necessary, then surely there’s a way to organize society without those jobs existing.

This is the fundamental argument behind universal basic income.

As to the question of how to fund stuff like pensions or UBI without everyone working, the answer is simply to tax those who are working more, especially those making huge amounts of money.

We already have far more people than necessary jobs. One person with modern trchnology can produce way, way more than one person could even just a century ago.
