@saxnot Democracy never works when the people loose their ability to support the right people and programs. As for other forms of government, none of them do any better a job of putting people in control who are capable of that.

The only way you will ever have a competent government is when you have people who are skillful at identifying and supporting social competence, and almost no one is.

@saxnot Oh geeze, that man must be pisssssssssed

@saxnot Can't say im surprised.. government has a knack for taking solutions and turning them into black holes for money that solve nothing.

Sadly I could not find this title at my local library...

@korewatsumi Thanks, No problem.

@saxnot The devil is in the details, since I cant read german I may not understand the system well enough to ever be able to give my opinion on it.

I can say that having a job center to hook you up with jobs sounds like a great approach as a last-resort and should be conditional for anyone getting assistance.

In my mind people without work make up one of two groups 1) people who are too lazy or unmotivated and simply do not invest in themselves enough to acquire marketable skills that they can then get. 2) People who are more than willing to work but don't have the money to acquire marketable skills and their current skill level not sufficient enough to be hired.

Because of the existence of #1 any system that helps financially through free education and job training programs needs to make a condition that they will only provide that help so long as the person is doing their part and putting the effort in at all. Therefore people should be given the option to either pursue a free/accessible education/training program or prove they are actively looking for and willing to accept work. Part of that is a job placement program that is required participation for anyone on welfare who cant find work on their own and is not participating in education/training programs.

@saxnot That seems interesting indeed, and promising.. I will need to read up on this, thank you.

Hi, QOTO admin/moderator here.

While I have no idea if your accusations against the other person is legitimate or not I do notice that you opened this account with the sole intent of accusing and/or harassing this individual. This is obvious because your only activity on this account is this one post combined with your username.

This implies it was setup for the purpose of block-evasion, to render the other users ability to silence you through blocking meaningless (as you will just open other accounts).

This is strictly against our rules and as such you will be suspended.

@korewatsumi

I apologize this user used QOTO in this manner. Let me know if this problem continues from any of our other users, thank you.

@saxnot
We need a lot of things, easy access to high quality edication, training, and job placement is one of them

@Faket Let me know your thoughts when you see it.

@Faket yay!

@stemid

Back then hacking machines was soooo easy. i mean hell you could just tap into the phone line and listen to commands if you wanted then have all you need. But also back then you could usually brute force most things too.

The world was so much smaller you could literally even brute force phone numbers if you didnt know them. It used to be that phone numbers were rather orderly such that the first 3 digits was a region, the next 3 were a sub-region, and then the last 4 were randomly assigned within that region. So if you know the location of something you didnt even need to know the phone number, you would do what was called war dialing and would just randomly dial every number in the subregion and mark off each one that responds with automated tones and then you'd have narrowed down your choices to like 5 - 20 things and that was every possible computer in the area. Then just hack them all and see what is what.

It was a simpler time :)

@Faket if it helps this was originally on Quibi as 10 shorts (however it was filmed to seamlessly be viewed as an hour and 30 minute movie too so doesnt feel like your watching a short).

Not sure how easily youll find it outside of amazon prime, good luck!

@Faket its free on amazon prime if you have prime. Check it out.

@Faket Was 100% worth it for me.. didnt hijack the universe but added to it (something a lot of newer revivals fail to do sadly), the actors were veteran well known scifi actors so the acting was good.. the effects were a bit low budget but bearable (and there is an enhanced version supposedly with better GFX). And, well its stargate, so ill take it!

My only criticism was the ending, I thought it could have had a better ending, didnt ruin it or anything but there was one aspect of the ending I would have changed.

Overall I'd say if your a stargate fan give it a go.
