  Both see the same offer, neither get the money

  Ironic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Peertube is the obvious candidate, but I’m not sold on the content.

  I use nebula.tv, many of the creators I like are there too. You pay somerhing, but their business model is not too bad imho.

  Floatplane is somewhat similar, but LMG is involved, which I don’t love.

  Who cares about scratches on the outside?

  And you don’t see a problem with treating shelter as an investment?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Morally wrong, yes. But sadly normal…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm a provider⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Why not both?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait, do I understand correctly that in your place, the buy-in costs are roughly a third of the (asking?) price of the appartment?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The financial system is failing since decades, maybe we need to make bigger changes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If the Tenants are really such victims they should just get together buy the property out.

  If they could do that, they could probably buy a better place and wouldn’t have to live there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I had to rant in a couple of comments because I drives me crazy when people defend leeching.

  On a more constructive note: Housing cooperatives. I think they should be more widespread. Some people come together to build a house and then live in it for the cost it takes to actually support it. No crazy big apartments with a reasonable amount of people (roughly one bedroom per person), shared luxury such as gardens, in house shops, hell even a pool if you want. There is no leeching, just collective ownership.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  the land couldn’t be used for housing

  why not?

  But generally yes, garages are less of a problem. But there is no ethical renting (under capitalism).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Are those parasites too? Yes?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  How do you live alone in a fucking house?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The renting part isn’t even that bad, the owning part is the problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  go to war with companies, ban companies on owning and renting places, not people with that I can agree. But taking money is still taking money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking leeches⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You still take someone elses money, just less of it.

  if there are none locally, you can use the lrclib plugin to find lyrics

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jellyfin is not just good... but *better* than Plex now?!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lyrics work :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is my bedroom being heated?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe still floor heating? If the apartment is well insulated, the floor is only slightly warmer than the air, since the large area allows for heating with a small temperature difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advice on enjoying your life⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For what of the list?

  It also depends on the definition of each, but I mean in a basic sense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advice on enjoying your life⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was under the impression mean and average were used interchangeably, but I’m not a native speaker.

  What I meant was mean salary indeed. But median would probably be more adequate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advice on enjoying your life⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Some money yes, but an average salary should work for all of them, no?
