Wasn't the chastity belt hacking story a fake? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEM6SHbjY7Y

Edit: looking into it more, seems like there was a (maybe) real story about it perhaps and then the YouTuber messaged the writer of the original coverage and pretended he was a second victim.

To be clear here, while they advocate for UBI this isn't really a study on the topic as much as it is on direct cash payments to the homeless. Which has been supported by tons of different research in Canada, London, so many places I can't even remember them all.

but that probably cannot be said about Canada.

Depends on what you're eating. Even in the most insanely priced areas, beans and rice tend to be pretty damn cheap, and North Americans do not eat a lot of rice or beans or chili or other cheap foods that are staples in lots of Asian diets.

I don't think it's particularly unreasonable to conclude that any decent approach to the first will also include the second. That shit is literally designed to be addictive, even the best teachers are gonna struggle to compete.
