Twitch and Twitter have some overlap. Probably people from Twitter typed “Twi” and were suggested Twitch and vice versa.

I watched twitch for a short second and mentioned some of the biggest streamers to friends who had no idea what was going on or who was being talked about it. They still have no idea what twitch is and why people watch it. At least the bathtub time was hilarious.


We don’t have a saw big enough for that.


Some good news among all the bad. I hope they can push back the Russians or that Russia runs out of steam next year (as was predicted multiple times). The war has been going on too long.


There was a webcomic about Google doing this and then selling the data to advertisers. These guys are just ahead of Google (or looking to bought by Google).


My concern was that not everybody can afford to buy a house, but back in the day people on a receptionist income could buy a house, so if we go back to those days, house ownership would rise again. And as others made me realise, the stuff standing empty for investment would be sold to be used again and outsized homes could be sold to be repurposed as social housing or jousing outright.


Good point! Yes, larger estates could be sold to be used for housing multiple people or indeed for building new housing. Thank you


Well, there is a lack of houses for rent at the moment. Aaand, while writing that, I remembered that there are lot of things standing empty because they are for investment! If those were forced to be sold, that would add more housing stock on the market.
Thanks for the comment.


The idea is to make the wealthy sell some of their assets. Thus driving the price of those assets down. If people horde fewer houses, the market of buyers shrinks and prices fall.
But who will they be selling to? I imagine it will be people who actually want to live in their homes, not just rent them out. Wouldn’t that reduce the number of available homes people can rent?


And still, there are people out there who think science is a deep state hoax.


But who would attack them besides Ukraine? Which Nato country is going to start shelling Hungary?


What would happen if Hungrary attacked Ukraine?


My dreams have certainly changed, but they aren’t smaller. My dreams now involve space travel to other galaxies and particle physics, which is different from what I dreamt of as a kid which was building a space elevator, drilling to the middle of the earth, and solving world poverty. Well, the last one was naively assuming that poverty was a natural result in a world of benevolent humans.
The universe is still infinite. Take a look at this “Timelapse of the future of the universe” and tell me it doesn’t make you dream of how different our existence could be. Or this one about Egoistic Altruism.


Slava Ukraini!


Everybody’s a racist, it’s just to what degree. Just like everybody’s a hypocrite.


I can only hope that you are right.


The same vibes can lead to feeling on board with mass deportation.
Really? I’d like you to put that to the test.
