Make San Fran Tokyo a reality. If you have a 4-car footprint make it a 10-story apartment or condo. If you build more units (and prevent people from sitting on empty units) the prices will do down or at least stabilize. It's that simple. You also need to get people over the idea of home equity as a retirement plan.

    I work at home mainly and would like to be able to play podcasts from my TV (Fire TV). I tried one or two apps from the regular app store and they were crap. I also tried AntennaPod side-loaded but some functions just don't work right. I'm trying to avoid using YouTube as well, plus fuck their dumb ads.

    Before anyone says, "Use your phone," I try to keep my phone far away while I work to avoid it distracting me. I could use it to play episodes still but then I don't have a remote to pause or skip or adjust volume.

    Any suggestions?

     

    Guides seem to reference only the UI version meant for Windows. I only have Linux machines right now and while I probably could spin up a temporary VM I'm guessing that will have its own headaches.

    I got all the way to the point of choosing my IMG files but chickened out because, again, no real guides on selecting individual IMG files since the old method would use an entire TAR file.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    For a little more context I'm trying to convert my phone to a "carrier free" firmware so I get updates from Samsung instead.

     

    I had a vague recollection the other day of a comedy bit but not sure where I saw it.

    The bit was basically two people sitting down at a table playing an overly simplified version of Chess or checkers. One person moved the piece and said "check" and the other moved it back and said "checkmate".

    I want to say it was either Mork and Mindy, 3rd Rock from the Sun, or Red Dwarf.

     

    My son dropped his Switch Lite in the toilet and the battery life seems worse than before. I'm thinking of doing the replacement myself but I'm curious how hard it is or if there are gotchas. I've replaced "non-replacable" batteries in phones before and I usually break some plastic tabs or (one time) pierce the battery. I'm totally fine taking it to a shop if it's moderate to hard.
