It's crazy (sad) how much we are all starting to have to rely on the EU to save us from the BS.

I mean yeah. Once other "financial assets" become more attractive (bonds at 5.5%?) maybe less parasitical activity will happen in the housing market. The whole thing started going off the rails when rates dropped to essentially nothing.

If you think current home owners have it bad, imagine anyone trying to get in the market now. Not only are mortgages 3X the price, but the houses are 2X the price they were before. The entire thing is completely unsustainable, and yet the Feds have done fuck all. Well no, actually they have made it worse every single step of the way (see the first time home buyers savings account for the latest idiotic idea).

Honestly surprised there isn't more. There's a lot of money that would be lost if the fediverse became more mainstream.

Obvious a very low level study, but as someone with tinnitus any progress in their area is exciting!

 

University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers have discovered how cells that let us hear can repair themselves after being damaged, an insight that could benefit efforts to treat and prevent hearing loss.

I would argue we also don't want to be in a place where we rely on any one individual. Thankfully @ernest seems to understand that as well.

Given the progress in just the last year... that's terrifying.

I hate everything about this. I came here to escape the Corporations damnit!

I don't even care what the vote was for. But the fact that over 94% of people agreed on anything is crazy to me.

Is it really a big problem right now?
Like we have Bluetooth for medium range, wifi for long range, and NFC for short range.
I would argue it's a feature.

And equal parts terrifying.
