This implies we all want to go to disney as if it is the ultimate goal to work towards. I’d rather go to the ZOO.

Ahh, no problem then. We just need to add a little © to everything and we’ll be good. ©

He should be cuddling a baby sized oil barrel.

My only metric for affordability was land price per m². Cost of utilities depends on size, small house wont be much more than an apartment. Of course this all depends on the location.
Maybe the US is different but all your points about freedom to do anything outside of cities is pretty much the same as in cities. Even though I live in a house, I cant just burn trash in it, I’ll get fined if I don’t pick up my dogs shit off the roads and I cant blast music after 10PM. The same laws apply. Cooperation with neighbors is there about as much as it is in the cities.
I think we probably have vastly different view points on what rural means. In my country, rural is not the middle of nowhere where I can do whatever I want. Such rural environment are uncommon here. “Outside of cities” here means living in close proximity to 100-200 other houses in a village. Rural middle of nowhere isn’t really a thing here.

OP actually has an affordable reality here. Its cities that are expensive, not rural areas and small houses. It depends on the location, but this is usually the case. The further away from urban centers you are, the less expensive it gets to buy. From my experience, a small city apartment costs the same as a spacious house with land outside of the city. There’s drawbacks to both, pick your poison.

I do. Its only a problem for about 3-4 weeks every year though. After that, the sun is high enough in the morning to not bother anyone.
Counted one crash due to this on my commute this year.

Nah, we can bend space. Sam Neill checkmates God.

Because they are a company and a board of ethical leaders to ensure it doesn’t turn to shit is no guarantee it doesn’t turn to shit. BlueSky is something a corporate mindset person creates because that’s the only thing they know. Have a problem to solve? Needs company + board.

1300$ in 17 years. Around 1200 games. I think I probably spent more elsewhere and got steam keys. I still have a physical copy of portal 2, which was cheaper at release than on steam and had a key inside haha. Good times.

This is so you don’t bother IT with “Wi-Fi” issues, right?

I gotta say, first time I heard of Concord, was two days after release. The headline which introduced me to Concord was “Concord only has X active players”. At least I’m hearing about Marathon before it comes out.

I get it and yeah, it does sound like you have other things to worry about. Not everyone does though. Most people who are hurt by the pricing of a video game console are probably in a better position where their more basic needs are already met.

And if you go to Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Congo, people are worried about losing limbs, life and actual stage 1 Maslow survival. They probably envy your problems right now. They keep focused on shit that actually matters, like not dying.

Yeah, people care about different things related to their circumstances. That’s life.

Its the only way you can signal your intentions. Being predictable is the best way to ensure the safety of yourself and others on the road. Combine these two and its a no brainer. Always use them.

I haven’t used PHP in a while (10+years) but I didn’t think it was that frustrating as its reputation seems to imply today. I remember their docs all had examples and I found that pretty useful.

50 eur, second increase in its lifespan. 1st increase was 50 eur as well.

Sweet pale labia’s ghost. Those look pretty good.

That’s how crocodile hunters are baptized.

Been coding for 10 years. Wouldnt know how without looking up the rules for quicksort. Guess they want programmers fresh out of college or highschool then and I dodged a bullet?
