I’m not sure this is going to help your mental state, but the word is “worst”. A is worse than B, but C is the worst of all.

3·2 years agoI said automaton wrong for years. I said auto-maton instead of au-tomoton. I still cringe a bit thinking about it :-/

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•When talking to people who dislike UBI about UBI, they'll often say both that 'people need a purpose in life' and that 'nobody will work if they get free money'.
7·2 years agoThat’s UBS, Universal Basic Services, one possible alternative to UBI, but more likely, we’ll end up with a bit of both, I think.
OruxMaps is an awesome alternative to Google maps. It does require some configuration to get Google imagery working since they were required to remove it, but there’s also a huge variety of other online sources it can use (wmts etc), plus off-line maps, overlays. You can use your own maps from qgis or other gis software, and there’s multiple navigation options. Tracks, routes, way points, and so much more.

The question doesn’t even make sense. You have to redefine it to “purpose” or some other word to even get started. The only literal interpretation is “what does ‘life’ mean?”, which is just something like “a metabolic system capable of Darwinian evolution”.
