I agree it’s ridiculous that we still have this private monopoly running. IRRC the contract is coming up for renewal and they’ve already tried to get rid of it before but it would have resulted in billions in penalties. I hope they do get rid of the beer store, but fuck the cons.

So does Musi on iOS

I believe the CEOs son has some special needs and he’s been big on pushing them to develop inputs methods that are accessible. It’s definitely getting better! As a gamer who’s been playing since they were a kid and now in my 30’s I’m starting to get RSI like issues and definitely appreciate some of these accessibility movements because they allow me to change up my input more often.

Doubtful, some people in my building had mentioned it was a car accident taking down a utility pole

That’s ridiculous. I do put money away. The problem is that the size of downpayment needed is growing way faster than I could hope to save. How often do these adverse affects actually happen? Once or twice? You can also DIY.

Other things you can reliably budget for, new roof is every 20 years, maybe new appliances every 10 years. General upkeep? Renters do that already but you can DIY and you have a say in what happens.

Your argument is basically if you can’t save for a home while already paying for a home you can’t afford a home.

That’s me. I don’t have a mortgage, and don’t have a down payment so instead I just pay my landlords mortgage and then some. The best part is I can get personal use evicted at any point and instead of actually gaining equity I get nothing but another 30 day extension of having a roof. And at this rate that looks like it’ll be forever. If my landlord decides to kick me out I’ll likely have to leave the city and therefor my job.

Basically anything short of we’re going to expropriate land and build massive amounts of rgi’s and cooperatives will fix it on the supply side of the equation.

We need to tackle the problem at the source and that’s housing being used as an investment vehicle by wealthy people and corporations as a means of wealth extraction from the working class. It’s completely choking the economy.

I keep seeing them too! It’s always some “news report” looking format with either angry Justin or confident PP (weird how that works).

Same. Burn it all down. I’m tired of paying my landlord the equivalent of a mortgage for fuck all security because I don’t have enough for a downpayment.

Woo paying for ads! We’re back to cable.

Isn’t that technically salting the earth? Maybe in something like the Sahara but I don’t see like it’s a good idea.

Ours switched to attesting in the hr system. You don’t do your 3 days? That’s a paddlin’

If that’s the issue what about just cranking the vibration up so you can feel and hear it if you set it down?

Good thing we keep letting these oligopolies buy each other. It’s never good for the actual people.

I’ve thought of doing something similar, the other fun part is that you could stash a big battery behind the display and run the E-ink on a super slow refresh rate since they only use power to refresh. I wish E-ink wasn’t so ridiculously expensive. This monitor would be perfect if it weren’t $1200.

Yep. Some torrents are low bandwidth and you can have a lot. Sometimes it seems you’re connecting to an AWS server and all of the sudden you’re saturated.

The article doesn’t really go into it but what’s a typical yield for chips like that? That’s great they’re on a smaller dye but if you’re trashing half of them it seems you’re not quite there yet.

Isn’t arc a chromium fork thus subject to Google’s shenanigans?

All the most recent OLEDs are smart TVs, the only thing I could think of that isn’t are basically things classified as digital signage but these panels aren’t really tuned for watching at home.

But your best bet is to use the TV as a display for whatever you have and switching inputs old school style. Connect it once to do software updates. Unplug from wall and don’t give it your wifi password or vlan it off the internet. Otherwise they’re all sending data back about you, and your consumption habits.
