So many questions:
# Who WANTS Infinite sales messages?
# What happens to tax income if people are getting replaced?
# What happens to society when many people don't have an income
If it is good for bussiness but not for people, do the free markets work well for individuals?

Multilinguals - can you relate?
I recently feel so brain exhausted from work, I do a bit of language learning to relax.
A bit of Yiddish, Russian and French. So random. 🤔

Random intercultural question: Why do windows in UK don't fully open? 🤔
Like a door?
Usually just one half of the window opens, and even then only at an angle. Why such restrictions? One could never escape through UK windows. Unlike continental Europe.
