If it's a shit business, they should get out of it, and sell the property

Transit ideally should be partly funded in the reduced road cost. Less so for buses, but imaging you linked exurbs and outer suburbs to the city by rail and a simple one lane each way road, instead of a five lane each way highway

My city* only levies land taxes on investment properties

If you live in your own home, there is no tax

*Canberra, Australia

Landlords should NOT exist.

There is the Georgism position where rent is discouraged with tax which is set to share out society's share of the value of limited natural resources

It's hard to run a civilisation without landlords, since some people are not in a position to buy land and need to borrow it.

We'd see a lot of finger cancers if it was. Acetone being the primary solvent in nail polish remover

I find it amusing that OP is named shit and is good, meanwhile our guy above you is named god and is shit

Maybe it's the name of the animal?

The first one is MASH

Gen x got MASH reruns and internalised the theme song "suicide is painless"

Beyond the supernatural (role-playing game)

Behind the scenes

Not until the diabetes kicks in

Report the bug to mlem. I presume they have a community so you can do so on lemmy

I couldn't grow a mo until age 40, so if you're young, don't be discouraged

Also I never had success just growing a mo. I grew a wild beard and then shaved off everything else

Yeah it sucks if your government just rolled over when asked for strictest copyright.

I'm pretty sure VCRs and tape backup got it legal in the US to move media you have right to watch between media

Australia got its law on circumvention through American diplomatic pressure, we refused leaving out the interoperability clause. Others under the same pressure didn't push back

Australia: If you do that for interoperability (in this case you want it accessible from your library) it's legal.

In my country (Australia) you're allowed to break the DRM for interoperability purposes. We could legally use deCSS, back when DVDs were state of the art, if we wanted to play them on our Linux computers

I don't think blue ray is nearly as easy to break I just double checked. Not quite "super easy, barely an inconvenience" but quite do-able

Skilled programmers can see that Linus is an expert. It works in tech. It probably works in any professional environment - anywhere where skilled people are picking someone highly skilled.

For the average person, we have clearly seen average people suck at picking expert leaders, though it works fine in small groups

I reckon Voyager was the best of the star treks

I and my wife have both watched all of Star Trek individually before we met. When new trek appeared we rewatched everything before watching all of new trek, good and less good, together

It's nice here that so many have their proper name. I couldn't get "psud" on Reddit, I have it on three instances here :)

If there are people here who have known me on any of the old internet they might recognise me
