  • Source on inflation being underestimated?

    Also if something like housing grows in price faster than inflation, then something else has to grow slower than inflation for the inflation number to be what it is. No matter what category you pick that grew faster than inflation, it doesn’t matter to the overall increase in prices by definition

    For example, grocery prices have increased slower than inflation. It doesn’t actually make my argument any stronger, since it just means other things increased faster




  • I’ll tell you why I use it: to use open source software. I noticed whatever freemium program I used on Windows that was cool eventually got enshittified and became spyware. Like fucking clockwork, the author of uTorrent sold out and all the new versions became cancer

    Linux has better support for a lot of open source software, you can use a package manager to download most of it, and flatpak for a bunch that’s not there

    It’s just so much easier than trying to find the official site for the program you want.
