  • It's because you're supposed to customize them, not use as-is. We've had a lot of happy customers. Some send us gifts! But for the first year or maybe even couple of years, you probably pay more to your partner for implementation, customizations and advice than to the ERP developer for licensing.

    ERPs aren't for every company, different ERPs work best for different companies and different partners themselves have their own specializations. The one I work through (used to work for, but now I have my own company and just contract for them), does small to medium sized production companies. Think 5-200 employees usually. The ERP we work with is meant to cover every imaginable use case - which is why it doesn't have enough depth. We add a bunch of stuff that isn't there OOTB, sometimes remove things in default modules, etc.

    But first you NEED an ERP partner to make the most of it. At ours the CEO is also the biggest salesman. He's not afraid to tell you if he doesn't think it's a good fit. A bad partner will still try to sell you and that's going to end up in disappointment for everyone.

  • I'm gonna have to agree with you here.

    There's a better special tax carve out: Don't require tax for the primary residence. The owner MUST be registered as living at that address. Not a family member. The owner.

    Okay if you have family you can have a few more homes, but realistically, if you own 10 or 20 homes, how many people can you REALLY trust to have full ownership of them instead of you? You're going to have to start paying tax at some point.

  • Every 3 years due to forced upgrades or just old style deprecation over 3 years.

    iPads don't deprecate in 3 years, nor require forced upgrades. They get nowhere near as much support as a regular Linux laptop (which is what schools SHOULD be using) and even less than Windows laptops pre-11, but if they're being replaced every 3 years, that's just policy, not an actual need. Currently the oldest supported iPad is going to hit 8 years since release in a month. The newest unsupported one is going to hit 9 in a month. So yes there's forced upgrades, but that's in like 8 years.

    I work as a software engineer and most companies have had a minimum 3 year lifetime policy for company laptops. Reasoning being, after 3 years there's a higher chance of failure, and there have been enough advancements in hardware that upgrading might save SOME dev time. If it fails before 3 years, you get a new one. If you want to keep it longer, you can keep it. But if you want a new one, it should be 3 years old first. I don't get why school iPads need to be replaced this often, but I reckon there might be a lot more wear and tear and THAT could be the reason for a 3 year replacement policy. It's simpler than just replacing individual units every now and then.

  • Newer LED headlights are often matrix headlights. See the entire road like you've got high beams on, except the oncoming car's area is dark. Best of both worlds if implemented well enough. You can still turn off the high beams so that if the system stops malfunctioning, you have something equivalent to normal LED low beams.

  • Hmm, maybe. I still don't like the fact that some rich dude could just go and say "Hmm such a nice home they've built for themselves, I think I will forcibly buy it". There's so much more value to a home than the land it sits on and the building materials. There's a lot of sentimental value once you've lived somewhere for years or decades even.

    If there was an exception for primary residences, your idea might be a lot less horrible. Again something that could likely be schemed through, but at the very least, it'd just be investment properties that get targeted. I don't give a fuck about those.

  • Discord has a single point of registration though.

    You can see the same communities from lemmy.world and lemm.ee, more or less. But the average user doesnt know that. They get confused. People are stupid. Sad, I know, but also true.
