Gog is not in the bridge building business though

Build more homes. A lot of housing regulations tend to make things worse

Because Linux still makes up a small % of PC Gamers, so CDPR hasn’t prioritized it. Plus they’d need to have some kind of proton-like middleware (or just proton) for the majority of their games (which are mostly 15-20+ years old) to be playable. It seems like a large engineering challenge for a company which isn’t nearly as wealthy as valve

The incentive to build new housing is to then turn around and sell that housing, they don’t need an incentive, they need permission.

No, it’s because of a lack of new supply. Most houses are owned by the people who live in them, not land lords

The only reason rent would decrease in response to economic conditions would be if they started building tons and tons of houses and supply began to outpace demand. OR, your country were experiencing deflation, which is bad

You’re wrong, building more housing is THE solution. The vast majority of homes are owned by people who live in them, not landlords. Building more housing is literally the ONLY solution.

I argue that we should replace property taxes with income taxes because property taxes lead to disparities in outcomes between different jurisdictions. Then an old man can be secure in his own property without depriving the public of funds.

Yes (Chad face)

I think it’s the moral issue of having to cash out your own property to afford to live in something you built and already own

Lol. Lmao, even

No there’s lots of different kinds of people. Some people work a full 9-5 chained to their desks, and others get their work done early so they can go and live their lives to the fullest. The point of WFH is flexibility: I don’t need permission to go walk my dog or fold laundry. As long as I get my assigned work done, who cares WHEN or HOW or WHERE I do it

Engineer Syndrome. You get mildly good enough at writing Javascript to sell a product and then assume that means you can fix all of society’s problems

Terrible website with some legitimately hilarious but completely unironic posts from what I can only surmise are the human equivalent of NPCs. Still, I don’t spend all day reading LinkedIn crap, I just use it to communicate with recruiters. Has been useful in my career but the social aspect of it is hilarious

Fuck:

• Meta
• Google
• Amazon
• TikTok
• Reddit

And all the tech douchebags who created them. Apple and Microsoft aren’t included here because they’re not running websites that rot our fucking brains, I think
