Hmm. I like the concept but think there are practical issues: Suddenly everyone who owns apartments or other rental property in a major city immediately sells it (even if just to be demolished) and kicks out the current renters. Mass homelessness affecting disproportionately those worst off. Perhaps the cost of Buying a home would drop due to all that property for sale - especially if the apartments can be sold as condos, but I’m not sure if it would compensate enough, and would be a huge mess for some time.

davidgro,

What I mean is that they couldn’t afford to keep it in any way and may end up selling it at just the land value (if that)

davidgro,

I’ve often wondered that about house flies.

davidgro,

And here I assumed the whole thing was fan fiction.

davidgro,

Let me know when I can check it out without owning an iPhone. Web access would be fine.

Doesn’t strike me as a company that cares about openness if they are being that exclusive.

For that matter how will federation work with them showing ads and having paid posts like they promise (to ‘reward the creators’)?

davidgro,

My main account there is nothing like this, even the shorts are mostly pop science stuff.

But my other account is very much this way on purpose, much like my other Lemmy account, X account (really the only one I use anymore), etc.

davidgro,

Exclusive to iPhone. Not even a Web sign up.

davidgro,

My related question was: how many days (or maybe hours) of revenue is that for them?

davidgro,

I’m going to assume that there is no context here that I’m missing.

davidgro,

Soups of the night, what flavors they make!

davidgro,

Besides evaporation, blowing on something which is very hot will bring it closer to room (or breath) temperature by removing the air right next to it which has been heated up already and is ‘protecting’ the hot item a bit from direct exposure to the room air. When you blow that hot air away the hot item then touches the room air and heats that up, which cools it down.

The same applies to cold things, you can melt ice cream for example much faster by blowing on it even if you use a fan instead of hot breath.

davidgro,

Huh. Today I learned that it has “lyrics” (sonnets that the music is based on)

I was going to say that it was my first thought, but my second thought was about it being instrumental. Then I looked it up just in case.

davidgro,

Springtime for Hitler?

davidgro,

They don’t seem to be made for walking.

davidgro,

Just goes to show that a horse and carriage Really Do go together.

I have no idea why it’s ‘censored’ like that in your image.

fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves... (lemmy.world)

One of the most common mistakes is assuming that political opponents are ignorant. If only they had the right education; consumed the right media; or had the correct experience, they’d surely see things properly. The error is believing that we arrived at our values through reason. Values like hierarchy or equity are adopted by...

davidgro,

Well yeah… Morals aren’t absolute. I didn’t even think that was a controversial opinion outside of religion and such nonsense.

Sure we have laws to define the most generally acceptable cases (and many which are not) but that’s only because it’s the best system we can manage for the masses.

davidgro,

In this case the literal interpretation may be the most accurate. Much like these.

davidgro,

I guess I don’t know what you mean by “authenticating transactions”.

davidgro,

Interesting. If they do that in the US some day, I would absolutely much rather buy that device than unroot my phone.
