Actually, star trek might be. In their lore, things got a lot worse before they got better.

Nah CEOs will mandate RTO for workers while they themselves stay remote.

...ish. My wife and I just did this calculation and (at least in America) property taxes throw a wrench into it.

A decent rental home in Texas costs about $2650 per month. A similar house costs about $460k to buy, and run about $1000/mo in taxes. So you'll only save about $1650 per month.

Even putting that 460k into a bank account at 4.5% interest will give you $1725/mo, let alone stocks, index funds, and all the other investments you could be doing that will out-perform real estate.

Of course, that doesn't disprove your point about poverty since you need to have the money to buy/invest. But it's just a reminder that houses are not the wealth builder that a lot of people imagine them to be.

Always research and determine the best option for your financial situation. Gate-keeping financial literacy is another tool the wealthy use to keep people in poverty.

Support for Israel's genocide carries an electoral benefit for Republicans.

We all now get to watch it increase tremendously.

As someone who's currently wrangling with so much C++ specific issues to try and make just one bloody contribution to KDE, this comment hits too close to home.

You have a link handy?

Pity. I would kind of like to know what the scam website is.
