I'm thinking somewhere between medieval and below a drone. Also delivering a physical object, so not a message that could be conveyed alternatively, and without an intermediary like birds or riders.

Really enjoy the creative slingegg idea!

That's good to know, thanks!

I'll have to look into bioreactors more. I'm also not sure about that last sentence, but then it sounds like maybe they don't know what's up either (or how to communicate it).

Interesting, thanks! I vaguely knew of tree farms, but more for like decorative trees or fruit trees than general purpose ones.

With the OP I was thinking even a monoculture tree farm may be preferable if it reduces destruction of natural, biodiverse forests and allows them to recover where not completely destroyed.

Speaking of brotymology, what's a gender neutral version of bro/man?

Would you need to pair them with an adblocker, or do some handle adblocking built-in?

Mentioning @Diddlydee@feddit.uk here to address you both in your similar corrections rather than duplicate my reply: I stand corrected.

I see that I had misconstrued my personal misgivings with the penalties of failing to pay with a lack of legal ownership.

It still feels off, precarious, to describe it as ownership to me, but I recognize what you're both saying regarding the legal standing of it all.

hello frog, that is sad to hear, have you tried calling doompost?

(how is there no !doompost??)

Own as in mortgages/loans paid off, I take it? That's the slight distinction I'm thinking of with expensive items that typically can't be bought outright. It's not wholly owned until mortgage/loan is paid off, which you kinda nod towards with your last sentence.

In the vein of houses and cars, yeah. I should get in a better habit of elaborating on ambiguous terms in the body, only haven't as I've mixed experience with people skipping over those.

How does one account for maintenance costs with this view? Even barring taxes, you may have to pay for upkeep either in materials or contracting out services to assist in maintenance.

Thanks for this info! I was unaware of this given how rarely it's mentioned.
