What really floored me is that he said people are sing them to write texts, as in chat messages for them.

AlbertFlasher posted:wtf why did I just quote my self why wouldn’t you no one else is gonna qirex posted:it’s not a physical problem but an economic one of being “too valuable to use” which sucks and you should get your property forcibly sold to someone who’s going to use it if you’re doing this [see also retail units sitting empty for a decade because the landlord wants stupid rent and bought the building mostly to eventually flip or redevelop it] don’t they lose significant money by not renting it at all? maybe there’s some tax write offs or something idk but I don’t get why getting no money is better than just some like if stuff at my work is about to expire we might sell it a bit cheap but then most just goes to waste, surely even if it was 75% off that’d at least recover some of the money spent to buy it? maybe it’s a bad look idk

echinopsis posted:why wouldn’t you retail space doesn't expire on a meaningful timeline. if you think you can give up a year of rent at X per month and then land a tenant who pays 2.5*X per month and make it back within the year, waiting makes sense it's on local governments to structure the legal environment so doing that isn't profitable

800 billion dollars were not lit on fire. The predictions/expectations of money paid to billionaires because they own skyscrapers went down by 800 billion dollars. this is objectively a good thing.

infernal machines posted:like, broadly speaking, if you have the budget to retrofit in plumbing and hvac for 20 units in a building that was designed with two washrooms per floor, you probably have the budget to tear the thing down and just build proper residential. then you can avoid the fun that comes with jank-rear end infrastructure retrofits. yeah i guess you're right. i'm just imagining ghost downtowns with no office workers to support retail, and municipalities completely stumped about both 1) how to get people downtown and 2) what to do with all these people who need housing. two completely unrelated problems, oh well. maybe we'll at least get some sick as hell squats

like I appreciate that lots of small businesses will fail and hollowed out downtown cores are a Real Big Problem but i dont think its up to workers to prop this up artificially. Not that i think raminasi was suggesting that, but the suggestion has certainly been made by some people.
