Never stopped. Now I also host a service that can convert some sites to an RSS feed when they don’t have one.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Gig work is just turning the poor class into servants. And adding further debt to other poors trying to use these services.English
12·1 day agoA lot of gig workers just treat it like a paycheck and don’t compare revenue to expenses like the independent business it really is.
Edit: poor wording, I don’t believe it’s entirely an independent business but that is how they are paid.

Android@lemdro.id•Oppo is building camera phones like the smartphone race never endedEnglish

Android@lemdro.id•Oppo is building camera phones like the smartphone race never endedEnglish
4·3 days agoBecause this is one device that fits easily in a pocket or purse. Most people want to have a nice camera on hand without having to lug around another big device.
This is great advice. And yeah $16k sounds a lot like “I don’t want to open this can of worms.”

Real Estate Talks@lemmy.today•Incompetent house flippers left me a grenade, effectively, set to blow at the 20 yr mark.English
4·3 days agoI suggest consulting a local attorney. Laws concerning these things vary greatly. From my limited knowledge though that will probably end in some money wasted and an attorney telling you you’re SOL. But that will be small vs what you’re facing.
Also, normal home inspectors are not looking for this kind of stuff. The kinds of inspections mandated by law for sales don’t go nearly deep enough. And whatever was signed when they were hired no doubt covers their asses for this stuff. You’d have to pay someone a lot more to do a more thorough inspection.
Even if you’d hired a contractor yourself and this happened, after 9+ years in most US States you’re past the statute of limitations.
And you’re right, this is not what homeowners insurance is for.















But their employer put them up at his workplace, so it would protect them in this case. Unless his Union consented on his behalf.
The protection from government is voting. After years of fighting them our community finally canceled its flock contract.
