haui_lemmy,

And this happens if people interested in the matter start discussing. Thank you for this great addition.

haui_lemmy,

I fully agree on the second part.

The first part is tricky as it entirely depends on who the offender is. The fact there are sick individuals at the wheel in the US is hardly shocking to me. But in most other countries the judges are still somewhat decent people but bigotted lawyers will find ways around clear cut laws.

Through my experience with both, the legal system and being an executive, I can tell you that its mostly psychopaths - either as lawyers or clients - that will use this to their advantage.

But I guess you‘re right. If we can make it illegal to circumvent this law, it doesnt need to be as vague as possible.

Little food for thought: if the legal system is corrupted, its not a legal system but a control scheme.

haui_lemmy,

I understand the idea and its great if they were able to do that but the world would look a lot different if they would actually do it differently. There would be more houses to buy and they would be cheaper, their money would need to be put in other things to collect interest. The kids would be able to buy the houses themselves at 18 and the parents would have the same outcome, just bad actors would not be able to buy up the market.

To be clear: your extended family is not the problem imo and would not suffer from a law like this.

haui_lemmy,

Good question. I didnt think of this. Maybe one needs to make an exception for hotels or something? Obviously this would need to be restricted so residential homes dont get transformed to hotels en masse.

haui_lemmy,

Okay! Bold but I like it.

We need folks to run with this for political offices though.

haui_lemmy,

I think that is something that could be discussed but we‘d need to make sure peeps wouldn’t just search for a way to circumvent the law (which is always a problem).

haui_lemmy,

I already thought of this as a potential loophole but chose to ignore it since there will be a ton more. Imo, the law should be made as vague as possible and include something like „if a company by any means gains the ability to own or control residential buildings, they should pay twice the amount of revenue (not profit) they make of it. In repeating cases, all people involved with the transaction as well as all directors of said company face up to 10 years in prison.

haui_lemmy,

Thank you very much for pointing this out! It seems I‘ll have to read up on this stuff for my next home automation project.

haui_lemmy,

No idea if you‘re serious but in case you are: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elitism

My post is about a metaphorical superpower, not some perceived advantage over others.

haui_lemmy,

I agree. We‘re making an ND wiki too so that would be something to go over in detail soon. Thanks for pointing it out.

haui_lemmy,

Easy:

  • you have to live in the building you own
  • only humans can own residential buildings

Done. Any further questions?

haui_lemmy,

You‘re the first person in a long time to put it this accurate.

Had a boss like this recently. Looked like he invented micromanaging and got frustrated every day about the lack of progress the company made.

Big surprise there /s

haui_lemmy,

Same here. Got me deeper into tech before I started with linux. I was still a windows addict when he did the linux daily driver challenge.

I‘m really sad he‘s just one of them after all…

haui_lemmy,

On another note: why do we have open standards like jpeg and png but proprietary shit like docx?

haui_lemmy,

Thanks. Thats actually very interesting. Do you know if there is a good open alternative at this point?

haui_lemmy,

Probably an idea as old as time but wouldn’t it work to stream adobe products from a terminal server?

Let me elaborate: two major fronts I’ve seen are “I type data and write emails” types that can easily work on the terminal and “I make heave graphics and video editing and cant work without 4090 gpu” which we usually just leave to it.

Obviously there are more nuances but most should be doable in terminal unless no internet or very bad internet. I’m somewhat hopeful this would work. Everyone has a very efficient linux pc/laptop and the heavy lifting is done by windows vms with adobe suite running on shared A100s. And while they are not used they could be rented out for extra cost efficiency.

haui_lemmy,

Good bye troll

haui_lemmy,

Neat explanation. Thanks. I also modded some communities over there.

It’s not only reddit i‘m seeing this happen on. At work, on discord, people with questionable morals start to get into power and take over from those who built stuff up.

It’s like we have an epidemic of the dark triad. Being manipulative, impulsive and brutal seems to get more and more normalized through our economic system.

haui_lemmy,

I‘ll have a look, thanks! :)

haui_lemmy,

Damn… thanks for mentioning this. I thought musk now bought a couple shills since it seems to work for zuck.

haui_lemmy,

I think the important message is „informed decision“ instead of „indoctrination“.

You can decide to do something against your immediate self interest to get a greater benefit later.

But the way we were brought up was „do what you‘re told“ which leads to exploitation and endless suffering to provide for the exploiters.

haui_lemmy,

You‘re not wrong. I left firefox since you can’t say anything critical about firefox without being downvoted to hell even if it is just trying to improve it.

Wonderful how the people spoiling irl groups also spoil online groups.

haui_lemmy,

I have posted this exact article there some months ago I believe. Or at least one just like it.

I totally get your point. Instead of just saying „this is false for x reason“ they go after the people who post this.

I really hate that.

haui_lemmy,

Exactly. Especially getting rid of this ridiculous buy but now own idea.

haui_lemmy,

Likely not in the same country as the person you asked but where I live, being homeless means you don’t want to go to the government and ask for housing/money. You get both. Those people who run around crowded areas do that as occupation, not because they’re starving.
