Hey here's a thought: let's get rid of all the laws requiring single-unit detached housing. That should open up some new housing in places people want to live.

I thought Arch was notorious for breaking all the time? Is that a specific version of Arch?

I couldn't find any information as to why, but playing around with other symbols suggests it only does it with symbols where they assume the space isn't supposed to be there. E.G. Colon, ending parenthesis, equals sign, etc. Digging around in the settings I couldn't find any option to disable this functionality.

Folks elsewhere suggested switching to the Swype keyboard, but I don't have personal experience with it in a very long time so I don't know anything about the settings and automatic behavior.

In case you haven't been to a library in a while (yes I know this post is a joke) they do way more than just books these days. Depending on the library you'll get music, movies, videogames, computers, photography equipment, 3D printers, laser cutters, audio visual equipment, recording studios, meeting rooms, and probably other shit I'm forgetting about. Smaller libraries are obviously more likely to stick to the basics, but my suburban library where I used to live had nearly everything I mentioned.

There's a few places that didn't get cars until later and "no thank you" was a very common reaction. We really ought to just ban private ownership.

While the strike is important, if we can get recognition that these subcontractors are just a way for corporations to dodge employment laws, that would be fucking HUGE.

I've been idly trying to come up with a framework that discourages this kind of behavior, and I haven't come up with anything good. Got any ideas? Everything I come up with either wouldn't work or would never get implemented.
