Also, having a lower initial cost is always a trade off. A heat pump, spray foam + rock wool (for sound + insulation), good windows, are probably worth it if you intend to live there long terms

For perspective,

220k plus taxes and delivery

You could push it down a bit further, maybe 125-150k? But modern code and labour costs dictate a lot.

I suggest looking into pricing of ready-to-move homes/cottages, they tend to be more basic and could give perspective. Based off experience, I reckon you could build/finish a 1k sq ft, 2 bedroom, 1 bath for <200k if you do very basic finishing, add minimal windows and penny pinch.

Yes, if you never try the solutions, they aren't proven.

When possible solutions for issues already exist untried, vilifying effort towards any other tasks or issues is not helpful.

Assuming a magical solution to your issues will appear with a couple more technicians is fanciful.

The "diet" references the outsized methane gas made during the production of meat or other foods. For those who can choose, what they choose to eat causes of various issues. The world makes a large excess of calories, the distribution is the issue and more tech isn't the only solution.

That was the point. The original comment was critiquing the technical effort being put into space instead of other issues.

I brought up that many of the issues we have are "technically" solved not politically solved. The solutions exist, but people care about other things instead.

Reducing methane is a global diet change, rebuilding the ocean is a global diet change, global hunger is a distribution issue, the technologies needed for reducing fossil fuel consumption exist.

The solutions have been known for a long time, it's a political and social issue to implement them.

The issue is that we already have the technology and capability to solve most of the world's problems. Most current global issues are primarily political and social.

For someone with a technical specialized skillset to use their skills makes far more sense.

I remember hearing that not including videos or shorts in sub fees, especially for more niche topics, the video will generally perform better because if it does go to sub feed and a bunch of subscribers don't interact with it, its deranked in the algorithm.

I do think it would be fair to say that they would have some benefit from partial rewrite to make it more hardware/operating agnostic would be benefit to the long term viability of maintaining the system.

I do get the point of getting a good enough solution and running with it. But business critical software to running on old operating systems that haven't received security patches for decades and are running using esoteric hardware in more and more limited supply has a cost.

Not really, I primarily played locally. I've heard good things though.

Modrinth + Prism Launcher works really well for me.
