Well, not exactly nothing, the communities on them would likely move or merge somewhere else.

If you’re looking for the root cause of climate change, here it is.

Wonder what’s going on with your games. I’m running various new Windows games on Wayland with no flickering and 120+ FPS. It’s an AMD GPU though.

I don’t think that’s true for I2P torrents; there are a number of hops between you, the tracker and peers.

Maybe have a look at Proxmox, a Debian-based hypervisor for VMs and containers.

Oh man, I never finished it because I didn’t realise I could use the monkey as a wrench because “monkey wrench” was not a thing in my country. We have “shifting spanner” instead, so the wordplay was lost :(

I found mine in a bin ten years ago, bought a toner cartridge, and have only printed a dozen pages since then. What waste of money, I’m furious!

It’s as useful as asking which is the first stone that’s part of Mount Everest. Some things are vague and do not have definite boundaries.

The one thing I learned at Trump University

If Gopher counts, 1993, downloading Wayne’s World and Ren & Stimpy clips at the university’s biochemistry lab on a Mac IIsi. Otherwise 1996, looking up Green Day lyrics on Webcrawler.com and posting on Usenet from a Sun SPARCstation in the computer lab.

You kill all of “them” and that leaves just “us”.

As much as no-reason evictions are bullshit, don’t let them convince you that any reason is a good one. Even the landlord wanting to move in should not be reason enough. These are people’s homes already.

Which section of society needs more help, renters or investors? Let’s say you pay off your rental property and it now costs you $100 per week. Let me guess, for some reason you can’t lower the rent.

Thanks for the considered reply. I think we can agree that it’s a difficult balance between the incompatible interests of two parties who both want to live in one place. Maybe my take is too extreme, I’ve just seen enough of disadvantaged people getting the short end of the stick.

In Aussie society, we tend to treat housing like other property, where the owner has ultimate control albeit bound by a contract and (IMO weak) renter protections. My view is housing is in a fundamental way a class of its own and should lean towards the resident who has the real interest in it rather than the owner who has a financial interest. That’s not to say the owner should be at the mercy of a bad tenant who is damaging the property or anything–the rules around upkeep and maintenance are not too bad. But around decisions of who gets to live there, the bias should be towards the person who has made it their home. If the owner wants to live somewhere else, then they can find somewhere else that’s available. They would even get the benefit of the timing being on their own terms, unlike an evictee. I’m sure there would be social and economic impacts from that.

Anyway, I want to take a minute to praise the landlords that provide longer than required notice and any other assistance to the tenants they evict. Landlords aren’t all bad, it’s just a system that needs change.

Indeed. If Y exists then X is justified. Z exists. Therefore X is justified. It doesn’t follow.
