I’m literally arguing a point that someone made, then the comment was deleted. I think you’re projecting an inability to follow things onto me when really it’s a struggle that you’re coping with yourself.

Reflexively hating all landlords is a symptom of not understanding how things work and, probably more importantly, a burning desire not to understand a goddamn thing.

This is such a cool idea, however what if I had needs that weren’t being met through charity?

If you can’t get a loan to buy a house, what makes you think that will change if there are no rooms for rent?

For real though not understanding how loans work at all is on brand for you guys, If you want to go back to the days when everyone could own a house why don’t you go attack the zoning laws that make houses so expensive and survivable, then we can go back to shanty towns that burn thousands and crawl with disease but hey everyone can own their own no loan hovel right?

What gives those people a right to a paycheck? Why aren’t they just making things and selling them.

so if nobody will rent to you because renting is evil and you STILL can’t get a loan, where do you live? I think you kind of glossed straight over the unable to get a loan part which is going to poke them either way. Free house doesn’t exist.

Sweet jesus save me from this driveway FULL OF LOGS

I WANTED TO LIVE IN A BOOM GENERATION, NOT A BUST GENERATION!

Yes, stupid empire units. You had me excited for a minute but I should have known that was absurd.

Hey, mastodon isn’t that bad! When bluesky runs out of funny money and has to enshittify it’ll be the one left standing!

You’re describing the gravity fed charcoal grills from masterbuilt and I love mine. Especially when I toss in a cast iron pan full of bacon and run it at 450 for half an hour.

I have a Masterbuilt that has optional firmware updates sometimes, nothing mandatory and certainly nothing automatic. It’s a gravity fed charcoal grill that works like a computer controlled forced air rocket stove. Gets up to 700 degs from cold in 10 mins if I want or hold 225 for the rest of time as long as I keep feeding charcoal into the hopper and emptying the ash bin. The computer is adding actual value.

No soggy pellets, no weird feeding issues, the biggest problem I’ve had with it was the hatch sensors all going out over time, but once I jumped the circuit past them it worked fine again to this very day, going on six years now.

It’s not actually a very fun game to play, reading the lore or watching a video of someone else play is sufficient.

The motivation from their side is not wanting to support Linux. There’s a difference between working and supported; support costs them money in terms of every phone call from every person for whom the material doesn’t work correctly, as that means paid trained staff on hand all the time whether you’re having linux issues right now or not. Imagine if one person a year had linux issues, requiring them to hire a full time linux tech with nothing to do but pick up the phone once a year. By putting a roadblock in front that people can get around, it can ‘work’ on that system while they have a leg to stand on to say no to any linux user who wants help they can’t provide.
