It doesn’t seem like a very “walled” garden if they were able to migrate all their data including issues and comments

Pretty sure they can. Or at least, they can deny you entry into the country if you decline to unlock it for them.

You’ve never been to rural Japan if you think they primarily use public transport.

Hell, even in the outskirts of Tokyo most people have cars and drive.

That said tho, there’s no excuse for urban city centers to not be walkable.

Uh… except for most games

Demand to who?

Like… I don’t know any organization that would listen to them that actually has the power to do something about it.

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?

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!

And have very rich parents

Because chrome doesn’t make any money

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.

FTFY

You have a link handy?

Their reasoning was that X11 network transparency had been broken for quite some time. If you tried running chrome, most games, or anything with modern hardware acceleration over X11 forwarding, they wouldn’t work.

So, IMHO waypipe is actually an improvement in terms of compatibility, rather than a regression.
