I'm gonna have to try that.

Again they already are building like fucking crazy. The question is, who can afford them, sorry it just pisses me off thinking keep building dense apartment communities being the answer. If there's supply and demand then maybe the demand shouldn't be able to hit over certain amount in price. Like fuck man there's a housing crisis , saying supply and demand for who? ??????????? If you have over 650k$ and get lucky.

Capping the housing market, though would have the downfall of making it so people would hold until laws would change so they could sell for higher so the revolving issue of affordability vs area vs job market I guess is just a thing.

My goal is to own a house. I hate renting. When you rent you're locked in to so many stipulations and regulations it's not living it's surviving. If you want to live you need your own place, if you want to survive, you rent.

Maybe that's just Boston but I plan on buying a house ont he outskirts Boston or outer areas like Woburn or potentially even int he western Massachusetts areas cause they're notoriously a bit cheaper but again one county away, you need a car because the cr comes two hours max away and that's a two hour wait.

They're building like crazy near me and..... Who's affording these places?

I'd rather the revolving issues of owning a house, than pay 21,600$ a year, 1,800$/MO.

That's such a waste of you actually play the medical field or coding though because then you're better off a mortgage.

You can only take so many job opportunities and if your career you paid to go to college to master or even took advantage of a free college initiative (like Massachusetts has), isn't near your areas then you're settling to a lifestyle so you can chain yourself down to living in apartments fuckin' doing a career you hate and most likely will never get out of debt.

Like Boston is mainly coders and medical field . If you're doing anything at just above minimum wage you're living with 4 other strangers.

In Boston the train works well, outside of it, good fuckin' luck with the cr and bus services out of the mbta's reach meaning no Charlie card access. Worcester WRTA has Charlie card access but I don't know of anything further on other sides. I'm guessing it's the same.......

It's fucked but if you want to live cheap you need to live out of the city. There's nice places out of the city, you just need a vehicle.

Personally I think there needs to be an absolute cap of 450k$ that an individual can sell a home for. I think that there needs to be an alternative fuel cell that's not purely batteries but an actual liquid fuel. I think that it's criminal that people charge homes for a mil and up. The market changing and affordability would assure homeowners. Also the criminal aprs for home purchasing loans is beyond unreasonable. If the aprs for mortgages crashed we'd all be doing a little better not fully okay but a lot better. You'd still have to find an affordable home you can put a mortgage on that's most likely in the 450k$ range.

Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky have a decent real estate but you're gonna be near nothing and will need car to get to your jobs. That's everywhere. That's not, "the rich," that's just the average US economic infrastructure. The only upper hand,"the rich," have is they get to sit in traffic for less getting to work in the inner cities because they're closer.

Let's all concede and never drive gas cars or buy houses...... Awesome attitude for the public.

Actual, healthy, walkable cities are few and far between, and are almost always reserved for rich people.

"Actually Healthy," meaning what?

I will say though, it's fucking dope seeing people exploit the sterling engine for a renewable energy source. Those things are so extraterrestrial to me but dammit are they simple.

I've had idea of splitting my incomong water line and making an in home turbine to charge a wall of liquid cooled batteries hooked to a separate circuit breaker panel.

I've thought about 12' diameter solar dishes for Stirling engines. A farmer somewhere does that and that made me happy.

I've thought about making my own biofuels but thats too risky.

I like ethanol as a fuel source. It'd be nice if cars could distill everything down to the last drop.

If we ran out of gasoline, we'd run out of an extradoridarily effective and efficient energy source to power our electrical grid. May not be as clean as propane (fucking next to nothing GWP over 20 years of use) but it's effective and efficient.

If we 100% relied on renewable to power the grid we'd be absolutely fucked.

Every day layperson who's going to work and coming back home, yeah fine get an EV but in the long run of what we need to keep your phone charging at night in the middle of bumfuck (yeah I know solar on roofs, wind turbines at home and all the DIY shit I'm talking the the layperson who's not going to go the extra 15 miles to learn all that shit), you're gonna want natgas.

cause you cooked it. I swear every time I cook after going back and fourth between ordering out of laziness or cooking, I'm always happier that I cooked something. Yeah the craving may remain but that dies in the moment when my eyes widen and I got I made this!!!! What the fuck!!!!

Also what I've learned in my adult years, get a meat thermometer. Yeah you can know how to cook but if you use one, you can seer the turn down the heat and not have to worry as much. Shit like that. Ngl, salmon got better because of it and it's it's great to be lazy and slap a marinated salmon in the air fryer and hear the meat thermometer go off and know it's fully cooked.

And if you're a pothead, it makes life easier.
