If you delay construction, they can't start earning anything with the building. So the part that HAS finished sits there, not doing anything and accruing interest costs, which balloon the budget even more. Eventually something has to give and the builder either cuts losses, or bankrupts.

to phrase at a scale you may be familiar with, take a 200k@6% 30 year mortgage with a monthly payment of 1200. If you were to pay 1320 (10%) extra every month, it saves $56,000 in interest payments, and pays off the loan in under 24 years instead of 30.

The same principle works in reverse.

context, these things are funded and constructed by DEBT, so stalling them means interest FUCKS the budget on top of the time delay. that's your #1 way to fight them. even if you think its completely inevitable, stall, delay, do whatever you can and it will do so much damage to the people buying it

I can’t say more now as it could jeopardize the entire project but I am very close to developing something that WILL beat a Jet2 Holiday

Games Workshop has always known the same thing the writers of Star Trek knew: if you include just a little bit for the horny weirdo, they'll spend thousands on your merchandise. This is something George Lucas only did by accident, because he doesn't really know about sex

Ditto as the Messiah: Exploring the Second Coming through the Lens of a Pokopia-centric Theocracy

I'd also settle for a copy of the previous terms and find the differences myself

anyone have an idea what actually changed in the twitch monetization agreement? i got the notif that it changed, and of course the link just takes you to the new terms, without clarifying any changes

I want to mention that not only did Dan take one of the seats, he had the most votes of any candidate. (it was a top 2 of 4 race) FeelsGoodMan :D

also, in that mayoral race, the incumbent Ryan Schroeder is being challenged by the only person to try and get a book banned in the years my sister has been working at the library, so take from that what you will.

The 6 arrested yesterday, along with the 9 arrested Wednesday, brings the total to 15 arrested at the Idaho State Capitol building this week in Boise while resisting the extreme anti trans bathroom ban, Idaho HB 752.

This law is the most extreme in the country but citizens are not going silently.

sometimes the end unravels for me but its way not like people make it out to be lol. We got these 'plastic' ones at work now that are made from guava plants and biodegrade, they are very nice, used one all day once 9+ hours

When DOGE employees break the law, their names should not be secret.

In the Privacy Act lawsuit against DOGE and the Office of Personnel Management, EFF helped unseal the names of employees at the center of the violations. Read yesterday's Court opinion. www.eff.org/files/2026/...

In the spirit of April Fools' Day but without sacrificing the Supper Mario Broth veracity policy, here is a fact that seems so outlandish as to be a joke, but is actually true: in 1993, a Sega ad campaign briefly planned to use profanity to slander Mario.

I can't believe they got Nick to go to Japan what the hell

Thanks to AI, Google has become perhaps the largest source of misinformation in the world.

This is precisely how a government sets up the framework to install a backdoor, create a firewall, and switch off the internet when it's convenient for them.

Rep. Finke Was Right: Age-Gating Isn’t About Kids, It’s About Control What’s at stake is whether “protecting children” becomes a legal pretext for embedding government control over the internet to enforce specific moral and religious judgments—judgments that deny
