It’s dead. The main dev announced they’ve ceased development and shut down the main instance.

Nah CEOs will mandate RTO for workers while they themselves stay remote.

Is it just me or does he have a bit of a Mitch McConnell look?

Unfortunately, if they don’t patent it, someone else will and charge royalties.

That mistake has been made with life saving vaccines and other treatments before.

Eeeeeeeyup!

I agree with your last sentiment too. Warren Buffett said the memories he made in his house are worth way more than the money he lost by not investing it. We’re thinking of buying for the same reason.

…ish. My wife and I just did this calculation and (at least in America) property taxes throw a wrench into it.

A decent rental home in Texas costs about $2650 per month. A similar house costs about $460k to buy, and run about $1000/mo in taxes. So you’ll only save about $1650 per month.

Even putting that 460k into a bank account at 4.5% interest will give you $1725/mo, let alone stocks, index funds, and all the other investments you could be doing that will out-perform real estate.

Of course, that doesn’t disprove your point about poverty since you need to have the money to buy/invest. But it’s just a reminder that houses are not the wealth builder that a lot of people imagine them to be.

Always research and determine the best option for your financial situation. Gate-keeping financial literacy is another tool the wealthy use to keep people in poverty.

I don’t know if that’s true anymore. There are games on there that require login into PSN after installing.

Ka…booom!

Just because someone is a twat now doesn’t mean we should erase all their past achievements.

As someone who’s currently wrangling with so much C++ specific issues to try and make just one bloody contribution to KDE, this comment hits too close to home.

Some stores require you to use the app for order pickup.

Sounds like a store to avoid like the plague.

What a stupid, stupid reason to have to live through another Trump presidency and continue the war unchanged.

Aww what, show the view behind you! I want to see the cave, not the forest 😅
