I think most internet users are straight up smooth brained, i have to pull my wife's hair to get her to not use my first name twice and the year we were married as a password and even then I only succeed 30% of the time, and she had the nerve to bitch and moan when her Walmart account got hacked, she's just lucky she didn't have the cc attached to it.

And she makes 3 times as much as I do, there is no helping people.

The hottest 14 days ever recorded are the last 2 weeks

Well, you can't so celebrating one poor guy's AC going out in a heatwave is kind of a dick move, besides, it's not AC in it of itself that is causing global warming, i'd bet that if we ran all AC on solar we'd still be fucked.

Also it's businesses cooling (empty) offices that are the bulk of the % of AC watt hours used.

The Purge

Reply in thread

I would be surprised if all major companies didn't have ex military security for that night, probably could even pay employees less to extend purge night protections to them and their families in the process. Though that wouldn't be without risks.

No matter the situation, if capitalism exists, corporations and Uber rich win, no matter what the movies show.

For me I'd probably prep for mad max/death race style racing on purge night, I'd love it so much.

Leaked Zoom all-hands: CEO says employees must return to offices because they can't be as innovative or get to know each other on Zoom

I think the issue is the one-size-fits-all mentality, it leaves no room for each person to do what works best for them.

My wife's company only rents one of the 4 floors it used to, for those who wanted to return to offices and it's worked out perfectly, they maintain a space for necessary in office meetings, a place for presentations while only paying a fraction of their old lease.

Time to solve the housing crisis...

Reply in thread

It's definitely not going to slash it 90% to do that you'd have to make moves to guarantee houses are always losing value, much in the same way cars do, so that you have a thriving used house market for people that can't afford, or don't care, to buy new.

That means either implementing the construction of houses with materials that have a short life, or forcing houses to be torn down after, let's say 50 years.

I'd prefer just getting rid of ownership of property, but i dont know if we are ready for that as a society.
