Fair enough but both the chrome and Firefox password managers are cross platform and can be exported and imported supporting the ability to move away from them in the future should you choose. So for a first step from having insecure passwords to a password manager that gives strong passwords for someone who doesnt even want to rema strong password in the first place, they are good steps in the right direction. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

I mean the post is about people who dont want to put in effort to remember a good password, the path of least resistance here is still a good one. It's not like the built in password managers are bad. With Firefox you can import from chrome and I believe you can also export the passwords if you wanted to move away from Firefox anyways. It's not like you are locked away for good.

Or just use the built in password managers in chrome or Firefox. No need to pay for a password manager when they are free on the browsers most people already use

Yes and housing costs still take the largest chunk of low income people's income. This wouldnt only effect the costs associated with the cabin but also their main residence's taxes as well. Collected taxes might be used to improve public infrastructure and benefit programs which could also alleviate some of their expenses, giving them more ability to afford the cabin and have spending potential in other areas of their life. It's not a zero sum game.

I have never encountered that bug, seems like an issue with the duck duck go not doing proper url encoding. I daily Firefox on mobile and its the best option by far with all the available extensions and of course working adblock

Eh I think most people are forgetting that for the average person something like this will most likely lower taxes in total for them as the market rate for the properties readjusts due to increased supply becoming available. What might be untenable now might become completely affordable after even with a scaling tax rate on additional properties.

Or does the correction in housing pricing lower their actual taxes paid in total on their main properties, granting them more breathing room, allowing them to comfortably afford the hunting lodge even if the rate itself has increased? You're expecting everything else to remain the same and just increased tax rates as a whole. Something like this would readjust the market values of properties and the subsequent tax being paid while making sure those corporations hoarding properties are taxed appropriately and providing inventory into a market that would bring pricing back down to earth. The rate could be increased but total paid could be lowered in these cases of second homes so long as tax increase is exponential and not flat on additional properties. The goal of measures like this would be to make companies hoarding thousands of properties an untenable option not to hurt every person who might look into having a second or third property.

It might even alleviate the financial burdens that are making that situation almost untenable for them now as real estate markets are corrected and added tax revenue gets allocated into public benefits that could reduce the cost of living. They may benefit from the proposal even if tax rates get increased on subsequent properties.

Or if housing costs were reigned in via this measure would the costs they are burdened with that make it barely feasible for 5 families to split the mortgage cost on a hunting cabin in a remote rural area be alleviated. Granting them more financial freedom, benefiting society all while still keeping the place thats becoming nearly untenable for them due to outrageous real estate markets?

Yeah it took me a moment to try and work out what they were saying when they said 10g as well so your confusion was well waranted there lol. I just noticed someone posted the comic further down and thats my best guess as to what they were referring to because I'm not aware of anything that 10g could mean otherwise.

Ah that makes sense, I've never tried the SC so I just assumed they worked in a similar manner to the decks track pads. I think I would still probably prefer joysticks but now I can see the appeal for some regarding how the SC track pads work.

Is there some meta to using the touch pads? I never use them on my deck due to the lack of being able to have continous motion like a joystick. If I've just been using them wrong I'd love to try them out in the way that makes people rave about them
