A strange hypothetical, I know, but I've been thinking: I love planes - Wouldn't it be awesome to own a private jet? Maybe even one with gold fixtures! It'd cost so much to operate though... That's "multiple homes" money. Not to mention the environmental impact! I could never.

    @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt Does it have to be a jet? Why not just a single engine, twin or quad seater? Plenty of fun to be had, minimal cost (in comparison to a jet). And you get to learn to fly yourself instead of paying someone to have all the fun!

    @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt Not to mention purchasing a home to turn into a tech house in a market that's already struggling with availability and affordabillity. What next, buying and completely decking out a firetruck with tech to bring to LAN events... oh wait.

    @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt but would it be water cooled? Would it be repairable with a screwdriver?

    @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt On the other hand, a boat could also offer a freedom vibe for a fraction the price... maybe even do it entirely green. ๐Ÿค”

    @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt certainly doing some financial trickery to ensure you never actually lose money on purchasing it makes it okay, right? ๐Ÿ™ƒ

    @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt it feels like to me handing fresh ammunition to all those that dislike LTT ๐Ÿ˜…. Regardless, I think the plane episode will be a historical moment for the LTT channel and brand. Letโ€™s see where it goes from here ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

  • @emilyyoung@tech.lgbt this feels like a sub-toot and I really didnโ€™t need more reasons to dislike your former employer. The intense pulling up the ladder energy has been evident for a number of years. Iโ€™m not saying not to post it, just idly musing on what we, as a society, allow people to do.
