Nothing wrong with buying merch and concert tickets while pirating the discography. Fuck the record label.

What happens to wework when landlords one day offer leases directly to wework tenants? I’m not sure why landlords aren't doing that right now. Use wework to fill the building, then go around them to get more cash by leasing directly to

Fuck SEO and fuck those in this very thread who work with SEO. Congrats, you’ve ruined the internet in your race to the bottom for more pennies.

A skateboard works even better if you are using transit imo. Twice as fast as walking and you can stick it in between your legs on a crowded bus.

Moving people through town one by one and 20 feet apart burning 95% of the fuel just to move the vehicle is not efficient. Busses cram like 60 people in the space of 2-3 cars on the road and with a per person mpg of over 300.

I’ve been taking my skateboard on public transport and its been a boon for me. You cut walking time in half which is huge, and I can stick it in between my legs on a cramped bus and take up no more space than if I didn’t have it. My neighbo

Take writing an email to a professor vs going to office hours. You might write your question, hit send, then get the vaguest reply or one that doesn’t cover all the details that you need to understand the issue. If you go to office hours, t

When I lived in columbus there were already new build 1brs asking for north of 1.3k a month and the housinf market is inflating. Developers have seen blood in the water and cost of living will rise accordingly if people with high salaries c

The difference is in those places you have a lot more options to pivot to a new job. If the suburban office closes there are no jobs for you in the area and you’d have to relocate. Some people like remote work, but personally I don’t. I get

I dont think I could ever move back to the midwest. Spent a couple years in columbus and that city gets old pretty fast. Either you pay 1.3k a month to drink in a 4 story apartment complex with thin walls and a pool closed for 8 months of t

This app is nearly perfect for me, but I cant stand the three pane layout on every rss reader. It’s a mobile layout, not a desktop layout. Give me a single line list view with completely customizable columns. Give me articles in simple popu

My gripe with vienna is that there is no way to hide the reading pane. You can have a nice list view but that reading pane always inches up from the bottom somehow.

There’s a couple for reddit at least. For some of the others you can get by with a bookmark, so typing facebook would take you to your mobile site bookmark.

Its the perfect use case of taxes: a pool of money for public well being. Being able to pee freely in a sanitary area and not on the ground is benefitting the public well being.

In LA the city is really trying to encourage dense building around current and future transit corridors. Metro and city planning really do great work and are staffed with brilliant engineers, but are generally stymied by NIMBYs who eagerly

I think its unfair that the source of these gross profits is due to limiting supply to the market and avoiding as much tax burden as possible. Fair would be if anyone could build anything anywhere however high and were taxed according to to

Some landlords have seen their buildings value and the rents they can command go up well over 100%. There are landlords whose buildings were paid off decades ago. And all these landlords pay property tax on their purchased price, not the cu

Because not everyone can come up with 50k to put 5% down on something that wont start printing you money for 10 years. 4/10 americans can’t come up with $400. But if you can afford it there is no better investment. Practically no home

Building maintenace is the most readily glaring, but by far the worst aspect of prop 13 passing is how much school districts were and still are defunded. Untold damage to 40 years of students.

When a bungalow from 1940 sells for 1.1m in santa monica, its not because that bungalow is plated with gold, but because you can destroy the bungalow and build on that plot in santa monica. All of the inflated values of houses in ca is due

Just shopping locally and picking up your own food saves you so much and helps subconciously cuts down on your personal consumerism. I do anything I can now to make sure my dollar doesnt leave the county if it can be helped.

Ive switched to specialist retailers. Quality is higher and selection in that niche is wider than amazons offerings in that category. Shipping far more reliable as well from a competent carrier who isn’t throwing piss bottles out the window

Design is a huge difference. Old houses have high cielings to trap heat and vent easily with windows open. Hallways are arranged to move air across the house. Modern construction generally doesn’t take any of this into account because ac is
