Having lived in a rental for many many years the inability to make small mods is SO annoying.

But this does beg the question, who OWNS a balcony. 99% of the home owners I know have single family houses. Granted I live in the south so owning an apartment is not the norm but I assume some people own an apartment in places like New York? But I’d assume people do?

I tried to look it up and from what I could find only about 15-17% of housing units in the US are apartments, and of those only about 15% own. So maybe 2% even have the opportunity. And this is assuming THOSE units have balconies, which I’m assuming only a small percentage of that 2% do. I’d think this is a major factor to balcony solar not taking off.

I thought so.

I don’t understand the self-cooling. Isn’t it harder to keep things cool in space since there is no conduction or convection cooling? I mean everything is in a vacuum. The only place for heat to go is radiative and that’s terribly inefficient. Seems like a massive engineering problem.

That’s it. He looks like a sociopath

I probably have like 3 or 4

I agree with the first statement, because it’s entirely true. And I even agree that constant threat of defederation being a problem with Lemmy in general, but there is so much wrong logically wrong with the rest of this comment it makes my brain hurt. How can they be nazis and not allow nazis at the same time? And why would you even want the noise of constant nazi propaganda in the first place?

Why does every picture of him just make me want to punch him?

My wife is servsafe certified and I have a terrible sense of smell. Guess which one I am?

I love this thread so much.

I do not trust Mark Zuckerberg. Period. End of sentence.

The part that always bugged me is they would be going the same speed and direction as the truck they were on not shooting backwards at bullet speeds.

The physics on this just always really bugged me.

I’d settle for a holodeck or a brain device that lets you feel others experiences or makes VR completely real.

Yggdrasil somewhere around ‘93… maybe ‘94. Recompiling a kernel took a VERY long time.

I’ve been doing this a while.

All replaced my AI and stock holder profits.

Fuck I hope not. I’m 54 now.

I’m gonna burn a bunch of music to cd this week just because I can. Might even archive some movies.

I wonder what this would do to those Hall effect keyboards

I got mine in ‘87. Hello fellow old person.

I would want to pet him so much…
