That makes no sense. Division is just multiplication by an inverse. There's no reason for one to come before another.

Firefox doesn't explain how to do this at all, but it is possible. Make a bookmark with the URL you want, and set the keyword to whatever symbol you want ti start it with.

For example,
Name: Scryfall (or whatever you want)
URL: https://scryfall.com/search?q=%s&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name
Keyword: s
Then type "s Birds of Paradise" to get the result you want.

I did the same with Reddit and it worked on my end. If it doesn't work for you I'd be happy to help you figure it out.

It's also possible on mobile, and it's actually even easier: Settings>Search>Default Search Engine>Add Search Engine. Then you can type your search and choose the engine from a dropdown menu.

I don't know exactly what Chrome does but Firefox lets you sync tabs, history, bookmarks, and saved logins and card information.

They actually had this in Europe and just discontinued it.

That means that as a human being you should have a right to water. That’s an extreme solution.

It seems like he said that to me.

There's lots of stuff that could be considered innovation that is intentionally stifled due to competition laws or security concerns.

I agree that some innovation can be harmful. I guess what I meant was "we should avoid disincentivizing innovation unless necessary." The way I see it, though, job lots from automation is both inevitable and fairly easy to fix (as you said, UBI), so there's no reason to try to stop it from happening.

Really, I think automation should be encouraged. It frees people from usually-undesirable jobs and allows them time to pursue different careers or other interests. As long as we have ways to deal with the unemployment I think it's a huge positive for people.

they should have to continue paying taxes for those roles because the newly unemployed will need government support.

I fully agree that there will need to be a tax increase to cover support for the newly-unemployed, but why not make that a general increase on businesses and wealthy individuals? If anything, this would be and incentive for automation as a way to decrease rising business costs.

Innovation has removed jobs before, and we dealt with it. I don't see businesses being taxed for using computers instead of human calculators. I don't see why this innovation is different.

I disagree. We shouldn't be disincentivizing innovation. Taxes on business and the wealthy should increase regardless of their use of automation.
