Yes, they don't make it easy.

100% on purpose, then the same companies push for "personal responsibility" and "vote with your wallet" movements, instead of real regulation, knowing full well they can misinform us into doing whatever they want

that's not true… if the "market" is to be believed, many people would buy those condos, just not at the current price

if the current bag holder (some company) takes a bath of these, so be it… the entire market would not collapse and I guarantee you the rest of the bag holders will adjust, if only temporarily

what seems to be happening here is that we buy these overpriced condos to sell them at a loss … the greedy companies keep fattening and we eat the market correction

there are no rules anymore man… they just change them to rig the game in plain light… no ill consequences for the rich

yes, best way to distract people is to call as much attention to yourself in the most convoluted and stupid ways… this is why nobody has noticed the corruption, ineptitude and overall failure, right?

so we are bailing out all the construction moguls whose greed left them holding the bag?

the fact that you see taking 1 day off to defend your erodinc rights as an affront confirms everything we see from the outside… yet instead of fighting the powers that put you in that place you rather attack me instead…

Exactly like the people who don't complain about their own poor wages but complain others are getting paid too much

good luck with that bud

It's worse than that... what they IPO with is basically a tiny percentage of SpaceX composed solely of xAI

The entire stock market is basically 99.9% blind speculation and 0.1% basic math, which is why it rarely makes sense

so they mostly do…

Most sports were played (and still are) on foot

Look I get your point but neither my original theory (foot = kicking) or yours (foot = not on horse) have been proven to be the "real" source of the word football today; maybe it's one or the other OR influenced by both sources

 

The Trump administration has forced a Canadian-backed renewable energy company to abandon its landmark wind power project — and is demanding an equivalent investment in US fossil fuel development if the company wants to recoup $120 million USD in offshore wind leases.

Hi Lemmy,

I want to do a project that involves concrete. Basically I am making steps, giving them texture and stamping them so it looks somewhat like stones.

I have watched a million videos and I feel I can tackle this, plus I have a lot of areas to practice that won't be too visible so if the steps look a bit amateur it's fine.

My biggest question is about the effort of mixing concrete. I have a corded drill with a mixing paddle and most steps won't require much. However a few are larger and I would have to mix 10 bags or so. The drying time allows me to work one at a time and then do my stamping but I was wondering if this is feasible from an effort perspective.

I am an experienced DIYer but have not worked much with concrete, I made a coffee table, post bases, etc but never something that requires so many bags... am I setting myself up for failure / a broken back? hehehe

 

"Unexpectedly"... who would have thought that taking a chainsaw to all establish trade could be an issue?!
