A house in Austin

2018: $275,000
2022: $725,000

Those are actual numbers from East Austin. I believe the 2024 market rate is $625,000 but it hasn't changed hands again so I can't say for certain.

What I see is the developer who's left after multiple rounds of cost cutting layoffs and subsequent exodus of anyone qualified, that knows they are only there because they are willing to work for the least amount of money, and are willing to endure abuse from their sadistic manager, not knowing how to systematically debug the mountain of accumulated issues, and keeps trying random stuff hoping that anything will somehow work.

Christ almighty, this is perfect. Literally my life for the past twenty years, except the I start by assuming they did something dumb, so I would have checked the lid first. Then promptly they spill it unto their lap and I have to clean it.

Oooooh, can we shut Elon down? I mean literally shut down actual Elon. Does he have an off switch? He's gone wonky and I'd like to turn him off now.

Of course it does. You go in for a lesson and fall down the gear rabbit hole. Next thing you know you are watching endless hours of gear reviews and demos. A lesson is a single video where gear videos is an entire genre.

LOL. You clearly have never heard of G.A.S. (gear acquisition syndrome). You get on YouTube to learn how to play guitar and next thing you know you've bought three guitars, a closet full of pedals, amps, amp modelers, etc., and you still don't know how to play.

 

I don't think anything like this is listed in the Mega thread. Is there a good place to find high quality sample packs?

 

My main interest is the preservation of media history. To that end, I am looking for a good source of PS2 files so that I can catalog and archive them into a dedicated USB HDD. Then I'll store the drive in the random nuclear fallout shelter the house I bought came with until the day the world needs a copy of 'Little Britain: The Video Game'.

Seriously, any suggestions for collections sources would be appreciated.
