  • I’ve heard that Sceptre is a good brand for that

  • The simplest solution is just don’t buy these TVs

  • It wasn’t always so one sided. Jane Jacobs wrote about the power and effect of local community surveillance over the streets in her book The Death and Life of Great American Cities. When we zone for and build mixed use streets with enough density and points of interest to ensure foot traffic at all points in the day from a variety of ordinary people, with a healthy percentage of them being established locals, then it’s much easier for good samaritans to notice when something goes wrong (like a kidnapping attempt) and intervene. Privacy used to be a lot easier to achieve too when you needed it.

  • Seems to be gaining popularity with real estate and construction to help visualize spaces as they’re being built and/or sold

  • Alberta’s shorts are great 💙

  • The world doesn’t have enough sectoral bargaining

  • One of the easiest ways might be to have him take a look at an app like GroundNews, which displays biases of publications and shows blindspots in the media according to political lean. The biases and differences in headlines, presentation, language used, and what stories get reported at all by any given publication become very apparent.

    Edit: Maybe reading Chomsky would be better. Ground News has problems.

  • Have you tried OnlyOffice?

  • Property taxes. Land value taxes are just better.

  • Does anyone use MPL anymore? Is it a decent middle ground or the worst of both worlds?

  • Even hyperscaler cloud service providers don’t aim for 100%, don’t sweat it

  • Monopoly needs a Luigi role

  • Lizzie Magie, the creator of the predecessor game called The Landlord’s Game, was a georgist who supported UBI.

  • Hard not to bitch when, as a citizen of another country, I could never vote, and yet people here still have to deal with the consequences.

    You better believe the rest of the world will be bitching.

  • My experience with it has been mostly positive, however the laptop I’m running it on is aging and now doesn’t have support for hardware accelerated video decoding for some of the newer codecs. Watching some streams and videos has been a painful experience. Not sure if there’s a way around that.

  • we definitely want the fourth column to remain independent from government funding

    “among rich countries, the United States is a biiiiiiiiig outlier [in per capita spending on public broadcasters]”

    “Germany spends $142.42 per person on its public media. Norway spends $110.73, Finland $101.29, Denmark $93.16. Leave Scandinavia for Western Europe and you see the U.K. at $81.30, France at $75.89, and Spain at $58.25. Heading a bit east? The Czech Republic’s at $60.08, Estonia $55.70, and Lithuania $32.71.

    Only trust the Anglosphere? Try Australia $35.78, New Zealand $26.86, or Canada $26.51. How about Asia? Japan spends $53.15, South Korea $14.93. Africa? Botswana’s at $18.38, Cabo Verde $15.22. 

    And then there’s the United States — which spends $3.16, per person, per year, on public broadcasting.”

    Fund PBS and NPR.
