I mean, in that case, it seems to me that the right move is to add Food Not Bombs to the network and allow the city to refer people to them. This is a group of people who clearly care about their community, and they should be given every tool to help them succeed.

I managed to get myself back into Snowrunner this weekend following the Season 10 release. Honestly it's my favorite expansion so far for two simple reasons: the second map has a garage, and all the warehouses (so far) have unlimited quantities of materials, instead of the limited set that has been the norm through most of Years 1, 2, and 3 (so far).

Otherwise, just grinding away on the OSRS group ironman as usual!

Honestly it could be just as simple as reddit spooling up the bots so the drop in users only looks low, when in fact the number of real people using the site plunged considerably.

Interestingly, Trey Parker and Matt Stone bought Casa Bonita in 2021 and they just reopened it this month.

Just make it so if you stop providing regular updates/servers/maintenance, etc. you lose the copyright

I only found out about the emoji keyboard when I got a Microsoft ergo keyboard at work, and it has a dedicated button for the emoji keyboard

I mean, it's not like anyone goes to Fox for real news anyways. I doubt any of their userbase would complain.

Or maybe it has to do more with the region in which they're lost. The USCG is typically very good about aiding anyone within their AOR, no matter their socioeconomic class. This should be framed more as "why isn't Europe/Greece doing their jobs" than "why are the USCG/Canada actually doing their jobs".

Didn't Reddit already drop at least 40% in valuation from when they started the IPO process a year or so ago?

It's controlled with a knockoff Xbox controller. I'll bet the "black box" is a cassette recorder bought from Goodwill for $3 and then spray painted black

I mean, one good long term solution is either ban or heavily, heavily tax corporate ownership of single family homes. And heavily tax short term vacation rentals. Basically force all the companies that are buying up blocks and blocks of single family housing to sell.

Then, take a look at zoning laws. I have no experience with this side, but they're probably often a barrier to creating medium or high density housing. Which we're gonna need a lot of in the near future.

Apparently foreign home ownership is a big issue in Canada, so I have to assume it's also a (smaller) issue in the US.

Basically, the issue I see is not that there isn't enough housing. It's that corporate greed is pricing people out of their neighborhoods and then the houses are sitting empty because they're barely worth $150k, but the "market" says they can be listed at $400k, and not many people can afford that.
