  • Don’t put any trust in any kind of top level domain, friend. They’ve never had much meaning.

  • Not only does it need to become possible, it needs to become more effective than other treatments like crowns and implants. I think it’s going to be a long time, and even then will only be applicable in limited cases for a long time, and will be really expensive.

  • In theory. Long term vacancy is not in any corporate landlord’s plan, though. They will adjust rather than seek impossible rent forever. And aside from large apartment buildings, most residences (75% of 1-4 unit buildings) are owned by small landlords who don’t give a shit about network effects.

  • Mark Twain, Mary Cassatt, James McNeill Whistler, Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound, Henry Miller, Josephine Baker, Alexander Calder, Man Ray, Stuart Davis, James Baldwin, Richard Wright, Beauford Delaney, Kay Sage, Joan Mitchell, Ellsworth Kelly, Sam Francis, Alexander Archipenko, and Edmonia Lewis all did it before it was cool.

  • If you click on the article, what’s more interesting is how this might be occurring: through the shared microbiome. If there is such a mechanism to it, that’s definitely news.

  • Seems to me that plenty of homeless people have dogs.

  • The only way that happens is if the rent is too high.

    That’s not the only way. It’s not even very likely. If they are looking for too much rent and can’t get it they will lower their ask rather than sit there month after month getting nothing. Too high rent is the most easily fixable situation conceivable.

    Other explanations include things like: it’s owned by someone who is elderly and due to their health or other problem they simply aren’t managing it actively or are even incapacitated and can’t make major decisions. Perhaps the owner died and the property is in the probate courts, which can take years.

    Also, the presence of squatters doesn’t necessarily indicate it has been vacant for a long time.

  • It will eventually get heaped on there no doubt.

  • Check the wind first.

  • A “strategically placed” incendiary device that is placed in your next door neighbor’s lot? Right over the fence from your own house? That doesn’t seem very strategic at all.

  • Yeah this is a case where some kind of HOA or city blight regulations would actually be a good thing.

  • If she is there and so are the kids, you probably have some kind of path to citizenship or at least residency, even if it is not immediate. Being the parent / guardian of a citizen is something to start with in most places, at least. But only if they are actually there.

    If there are no kids involved and you are no longer married, I would guess that you have nothing to work with.

  • I just wanted to add that many countries have similar ancestor laws allowing you to apply for citizenship if you have any roots there. It’s not always easy - but at least you may have an “in” that others would not. So if you think you have a grandfather who immigrated from somewhere or other, look it up and see if you might be able to get on a path to citizenship there. My wife did this earlier this year, and all it took was some paperwork and a visit to a consulate with her parents.

  • That’s how change occurs at the government level and so that is absolutely failing. If you can’t muster sufficient support to carry your agenda out and you get overwhelmed by challengers, that’s failing. If your agenda needs perfect conditions to succeed, it’s a fairyland dream.

    This same thing is all that’s happened to the US as well.

    Moreover, social programs across Europe are struggling to remain solvent in the face of aging populations and shrinking workforces. Even when the will is there.

  • We talk a lot about the failure of the American experiment but it seems that Europe’s experiment with social supports is also failing.

  • No I agree that I don’t want to hear pedophilia talked about as a form of sexual attraction. It is inherently predatory and should not be mentioned as just what some people happen to be attracted to.

    *you know, even with an asterisk at the end to say that sure it’s wrong

  • Granted this was 1999 but I wish I could unsee the shit I saw one day when I did a SELECT password FROM user

  • And what is a private key? How exactly do you “keep” it across multiple devices? It’s all still black magic to me.
