Just a random stranger here for their own soapbox. Expect things about nature, conservation, food, homesteading and the like.
You’d get more for developing the land, yes. But depending on your area, and how you develop it, you might not profit from it.
Land with trees on it looks nicer, and draws a higher premium, but usually only if those trees are mature and provide benefits in the form of shade, use, etc.
A scraggly patch of undeveloped land with some scraggly new trees won’t see much of an increase.
Really depends on the market, and the effort you’re willing to put in if making money is the goal.
Not just merely a machine powered by explosions, sitting on volatile liquids… but one in which we’ve decided that it’s also a great place to enjoy some music, maybe a nice beverage, and as a great way to take our attention off into vast distances to the sides to “see the sights”.
I think to myself as I steer with one knee, trying to simultaneously drink my coffee and light a cigarette…
Driving.
Somehow millions of us go hurtling by each other mere inches away in multiple tons of steel, often in conditions less than ideal yet for the most part, it’s a safe way to travel.
We can’t even collectively agree on most topics, yet we put our lives in each others’ hands every day.
Even disregarding all the other drivers, we put ourselves in a metal can, hurtle towards solid objects, and simply count on the idea that on average, nothing catastrophic will happen.
Pure, random chance is enough to end us - animal pops into the road, a tree randomly falling, etc. - yet there we go, on yet another daily commute.
I have a long commute through the “middle of nowhere” so lots of time to think about things that ought to be downright terrifying. The thought of hitting one moose is bad. Never occurred to me until just the other day that two moose was not out of the realm of possibility.
Put an N64 controller in my hands, and I’ve still got the muscle memory for all the fatalities in Mortal Kombat 3 Ultimate Edition. As well as Shang Tsung’s entire move set.
Oh and HALIFAX? !YNGWIE! to unlock the Naboo starfighter in N64’s Rogue Squadron.
There really isn’t any decent Linux support for anything beyond the basic 5 button mouse without use of 3rd party apps. Even the “name brands” suffer from mass market shitty build quality that negates any “linux compatible” bonus points.
Then there’s the issue of the mouse hardware itself. Good luck finding an “MMO Mouse” that correctly reports every button as it’s own input. Which makes the whole “Just remap it, it’s an HID” aspect annoying. Redragon seems especially guilty in this area.
