- Comment on In just 15 years, the average U.S. homebuyer went from 39 to 59 years old: Top analyst reveals how the housing market has warped in one generation 3 days ago:
No, it’s not us GenX buying ski condos. It’s corpos like BlackRock buying up everything at 10% over ask and trying to turn the country into permanent renters. They figured out they will make more money over 30 years by renting it out and barely maintaining it than by backing mortgages.

I think FRS is the only thing legally available without a license. You can buy GMRS radios on Amazon that will communicate with FRS radios on all of the FRS channels, see here:
wiki.radioreference.com/…/GMRS_combined_channel_c…
However, these radios are VERY limited in an urban area with lots of concrete towers. In my experience the GMRS radios on “high power” really only go one little valley over out in the woods. In the city you might get two or three blocks because of all the concrete.
Maybe Meshtastic? That’s a radio I haven’t messed with and I don’t know about it’s performance in an urban environment.

That is true, and bought us significant soft power
- Comment on who was the aggressor in cold war? 2 weeks ago:
But for me, knowing that the USA did the Iran and CIA stuff while the USSR did Afghanistan and KGB stuff is enough for me to decide both were elitist assholes that didn’t care for normal humans but just wanted to increase their own power.
That’s actually a pretty solid take from what I know about it. Both powers were being total assholes and wanted control over as much of the world as they could get. USA had strong weapons power but USSR had strong soft power, bringing social programs to people who desperately needed them. Roads and bridges and such.
- Comment on who was the aggressor in cold war? 2 weeks ago:
while Russia was the aggressor in Cuba and arguably in Afghanistan
Fucking pardon me? Russia literally tried to take over Afghanistan after the US gave them weapons to protect them from Russia.

No flying though. I’m looking for airplanes in space and sometimes SC can scratch that itch but E:D is the better product.
Like you literally cannot “fly” your damn spaceship, you have to use a point and click interface (at least the last time I checked). I wish SC was a good product and I’ll be sad the day E:D goes offline but EVE is definitely not it for me.

Yeah, but the problem is, they don’t. They didn’t think it would be a problem and now it’s a fucking problem.

This can cause a cascade of particles to rain down through our atmosphere, like throwing marbles across a table.

- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 5 weeks ago:
I disagree. look at the failed states right now. USD and precious metals are the most valued means of trade.
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, I know. I have what many would consider an absurd amount of rice and beans and salt so it makes sense to store something that won’t go bad. Gold never spoils. Never.
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 5 weeks ago:
Ever since we found gold we have valued it. I don’t understand the position of, “Oh, no one will value it!” We love the shit and it’s a store of value. How much value is dependent.
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 5 weeks ago:
Well, you can.
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 1 month ago:
If you don’t hold it, you don’t own it.
Investing in gold someone else holds is silly. Having a few ounces stashed away is just illiquid asset that should be a hedge against inflation.

Asian asian food is saltier than I expected, but I try to watch my health. Honestly it’s probably just restaurants that do it, like everywhere in North America and Europe is trying to kill me with butter.

As opposed to the Europeans who think that wine is a dietary group? Or Asians who think that salt is a vitamin?
