  • You’re assuming people who are forced to buy into the suburban hell have a choice.

    If a person had a choice between a 100k house in a suburban hell or a 100k house in secluded heaven. That they pick the suburban hell.

    Have you seen the housing market in the US?

    It’s also funny how “Suburban” meaning has changed. It’s supposed to be non-urban.

    But with these “suburban” neighborhoods in cities. It has basically became a word for a neighborhood with houses built next to each other and less about where it’s located.

    Suburbs use to be an inexpensive option as opposed to urban living.



  • I have been on this planet for a while and I have only seen the night sky like the last picture driving through Texas in the middle of nowhere.

    Power going out in a city isn’t enough to stop the light population from surrounding areas. It would have to be the only city around for miles and it would have to be a full power loss.

    I would say most people have never came close to seeing an uncountable amount of stars in the sky.

    I live in a medium sized city that is 30 minutes from a large city. I can count like a dozen stars in the sky. If we lose power the sky doesn’t magically change to look like it was in Texas. Honestly, I don’t remember it changing at all.


  • The idea was as she got older he wouldn’t date younger than her current age. Weird and creepy but not the weird and creepy way you think.

    “In 3 years when you’re 20 I won’t be dating an 18-year-old.”

    This was in 2006

    Trump married Melenia in 2005

    So imagine saying this after being married to your wife for a year.

    Here’s another quote of him saying he has no age limit only to back track and then “weaved” to bring up another senator’s folly to divert attention on what he almost just let get confirmed.

    Things got a little weird after co-host Robin Quivers asked Trump if he had “an age limit.”

    Trump fumbled a bit at the response.

    “If I— No, no, I have no age— I mean, I have an age li—” Trump said, while Quivers asked him “the upper bracket” of his limit.








  • A laptop with a screen on both sides would have its niche.

    Shuting it would be like a tablet.

    You could do something while a person across watches.

    If you could rotate the screen you could swivel the screen to swap between two physical screens. I prefer two monitors over an ultra wide or trying to digitally swap between two screens. Rotating screen would have the problem of not being able to see both at once.

    However, if you made the screen on the back hinge forward. You could flip the screen towards you and have a second physical monitor.

    Sounds expensive and not really needed. But it wouldn’t be a bad design



  • I get that

    I wouldn’t buy diamonds or gold hoping they increase in price just as much as I wouldn’t buy bitcoin to do the same.

    If you offered me 1USD in Gold, Diamond, or Bitcoin.

    I would take the gold. It has the most intrinsic value.

    The probably that gold hits 0USD is less than bitcoin hitting 0USD.

    The only reason you’d take bitcoin is if you think that it has a higher ceiling. Intrinsic value is the floor. But that is gambling



  • Gold and diamonds have intrinsic value

    Gold is needed for computer parts, and diamonds are used for cutting

    They are more than just shiny

    Their value will “never” hit 0 (Bitcoin would be worthless without gold for computers)

    Yes, we could find substitutes in the future, but for the substances to not be useful somehow is so low and would have to be an apocalyptic scenario. And in an apocalypse, gold could even be worth more.
