I'm not so sure. The knee-jerk reaction of the cynic in me is to agree with you, but I actually think it's fairly unlikely that they own rental properties specifically. Many, if not most, probably own multiple properties as rich people are wont to do but, I would imagine that most of those are just "summer homes" or similar rather than something that is rented out as a "landlord" in the way most people think of it. It is possible that they could be investors in these funds, REITs, or other such vehicles which would make them indirect owners of these items.

I agree for the most part. I do think that the businesses that provide/manage properties should be public benefit corporations or whatever the local equivalent is. Housing is an essential human need. In an ideal scenario, profit wouldn't even be a factor, but I'd settle for it not being the first priority.

I live in FL with my trans partner. This is right up there with the damn driver's license thing. I have lived in Florida my whole life in a city that is very pro LGBT. To see the rest of the state bending over backwards to take a fascist kool-ade enema just breaks my heart and pisses me off. This isn't my Florida. As a person who has lived here for 35 years I have never been more torn between wanting to stand my ground, or go to a state where my partner and I aren't vilified for being queer.

That's an iOS/iPadOS thing. Mac browsers can use any rendering engine they want.

Yeah thinking about it more, you're definitely right. I've only ever been a W-2 employee (United States) so I know nothing about this kind of thing. If they are employees of another company, they should bargain with them instead, and force them (via strike if required) to negotiate a new contract with Google. I'm very pro worker and support striking to get results but you have to make sure you're targeting the right business to get the results you want.

Yeah I'd certainly like to know as well

I'm gonna have to grab that later and play the hell out of it! Thanks!

JK and MotS were two of my all time favorite games growing up. My dad and I even ran a crossover Ethernet cable between our computers to play multiplayer matches

Actually this looks like another channel entirely. I'll have to add it to my list. The short I remember watching had a very TOS type plot where some kind of radiation or energy caused the crew to become obsessed with the object in their own way. The tactical officer wanted to shoot it, the science officer wanted to study it, etc. It was hokey but still pretty neat. The effects were low budget 90s TV movie quality but had a charm about them.

I stumbled into a whole YouTube channel full of fan shorts from various groups but I can't remember the name anymore to find it again. Thought it might be starbase something or other but I can't find it again.

Oh, my god! I had completely forgotten that this had ever existed. I used to watch it when I was a kid. I seem to remember that it was on either before or after Reboot on Saturday mornings at least on whatever channel I was watching it on.
