UBI is supposed to cover basic needs, no? It doesn't mean you'll get the funds to cover the things you do to stave off boredom or fill your life with meaning. Thus people still work making, installing, and doing the less pleasing jobs, but there's no longer the "work or starve in an alleyway" pressure in the background. It also provides leverage against abusive employers, as you don't need the job to make rent and groceries. (Though people are willing to withstand a lot of abuse to reach their goals as well)

Long story short, the claims get much longer and restrictive through the application process. The example you asked about is currently undergoing a non-final rejection, and the claims will get much more restrictive in further iterations (assuming that the application has actual merit somewhere in the original dependent claims)

You can check the application history here: Global Dossier

They're not really all that good. But their presence might convince Krispy Kreme to try, which are significantly better doughnuts.

There are Dunkin' donuts in Switzerland. Don't know when this map was made

Canadian brand (President's Choice) that apparently has a "memories of" product line.

Like I said, the smell alone caused my stomach to turn, so I avoided the fruit. Dad seemed to like it though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My dad used to pick some up when he took our dog for a walk, and the way I would realize he had done so was by my suddenly feeling queasy due to the smell.

I hope you get the chance to try it sometime, but if you don't know that it might also not be a bad thing :)

Does a library count?

It seems like a missed opportunity to not call it King of the Ball-Z
