DST is bad, byte me
Sounds like a state problem. It works great in my state. It will get better in time.
It works fine in Lemmy ui too. Just kbin doesn’t support Lemmy spoilers.
If I was an homeowning instead of renting, I would have bought a much better refrigerator at trice the cost. But I won’t pay that much for an appliance I’m not going to own, and my landlord won’t pay it for one he wouldn’t use, so I’m stuck with a cheap and noisy refrigerator.
Right, I’ve been on both sides of your example. I’ve both bought a refrigerator while owning a home (and picked a more expensive model), and I’ve also had a fridge replaced by a landlord with a cheap model.
Again, for me the renting side of this is a “pro”. I will second guess not splurging if I know it is an option while owning. If I rent, I just don’t care because its not an option in the first place, and I love that.
I’m currently renting a home for space for gardening. Tomato seedlings went out last weekend :)
So there’s that, and there’s retirement. Having set expenses (aside from taxes) is super important and you’ll never have that with renting when you’re retired.
I don’t consider my home a retirement vehicle. I save separately for that. But I do understand that for some people, it is, and that’s understandable.
I never understood the obsession with homeownership.
I’ve owned. It kinda sucked. The things most people think of as “pros” (like being able to renovate) were not that great for me. I’d spend a lot of time thinking about things I could change/improve, and then doing them.
My brain operates differently renting. I don’t really care about things like that since its not an option in the first place. It saves me time/money/stress and I spend more time living my life instead of maintaining a property.
Of course there are drawbacks with renting, specifically shitty landlords, but to me there are more pros than cons.
One time I tried a sample, liked it, price was good so bought it

What made you stop?
Technically its not exclusive as their data and messaging is distributed by other channels, including traditional, and their own site(s)
Not in my experience. I know because I’ve corresponded with my office, and complained about posts that aren’t tied to a particular weather product (like the Weather Story) or disseminated otherwise.
It depends on the government I suppose. US National Weather Service offices posts bunch of weather info exclusively to Twitter (and sometimes Facebook).
Good. Also you shouldn’t need a relationship with a corporation (account) to get information from government agencies…
Thanks! Fun fact, it’s not a drone pic, I took this with my phone flying a paramotor. Shameless plug !paramotor@lemmy.world 😄
Electric cars are a solution to save the auto industry, not the planet
To me at least the speed isn’t a problem. I’d much rather take a 2 day Amtrak (in sleeper) than an 8 hour plane.
The problem is the pricing, and also how much it fluctuates due to the extremely low capacity (one train a day…)
