I don't know which one you mean, but let's say you found this image of Luigi on tenor (https://tenor.com/nl/view/luigi-gif-1407430845338737317) you have to copy the URL to the actual image which is the following link: https://media.tenor.com/E4gy5Z5X2qUAAAAi/luigi.gif

then you put that in the url place of [Alt text](img url)

so you end up with the following: ![image of Luigi](https://media.tenor.com/E4gy5Z5X2qUAAAAi/luigi.gif)

if you do that without putting it between code brackets you embed the image:

I didn't overlook it, just not part of the point I'm trying to make. If there would be a basic income and on top of that there is a 2ct hourly wage, everybody will be sitting on their ass. When people are financially 'rewarded' for their work they're more likely to give a damn, even if you'd have thousands of dollars basic income. In other words, having a legally set minimum wage is a good thing also with UBI.

Edit: my statement about underpayed prisoners prove this fact, except their basic income is basically 'spent' on food and housing (it's a bit of a stretch, but better rewards (/higher wages) increase motivation in this case as well). Also let me stress this before it becomes part of the argument, I totally agree on the it needing to be backed by science.

The Netherlands too. The only space they have is protected nature but now exercises are causing fires because there is barely any rain here.

I like the mindset of that one company insider. “In the storm, we’re doing pretty well but we’ll see what the boat looks like afterwards. The storm is tough,”

The money is not divided between you and them, you shouldn't have to reject your own pay rise because that is not the reason the low income staff is earning too little. Also, what makes you so holy then?

I think you should be more grateful for minimum wage than you realize, because if capitalism had it way we might end up with a hourly wage of $0,02 or even less maybe. The problem isn't the existence of a minimum wage it's the amount that's connected to it. Don't believe me? Look at the amount prisoners or illegal immigrants make an hour.

[...] some Silicon Valley tech investors are promoting the frozen island as a site for a so-called freedom city, a libertarian utopia with minimal corporate regulation, [...]

Back in the days i would have thought this is about making money, now I'm starting to think they just wanna escape the chaos and start a new one. Hope they are ready for the cold.

What is the link of the image you put in?

I used Apple stuff for a while but and in many ways it is superior to anything else, but just like I don't have a Bentley to drive to work I'm totally fine with the lesser option and have bunchs of money left for more important/valuable things.
