This is really cool. I do wonder how often "third-party rights or security concerns" will be deemed to apply, though.

I mean, there is always the option of putting down YouTube and going outside, or picking up a hobby or something.

Gross, I know, having to live in the stone ages, but there's always another option.

I actually watches the first season of the boys recently. Killer show. Its stunning that any real person could have ever looked up to Homelander in any capacity.

For software and devices running locally, sure. Much of what MS does these days is cloud based where the bulk of the electricity is being used in a data center somewhere and the customer isn't (directly) paying for it.

You explicitly asked about apartments tho

Near all apartments around me have exclusively open-air parking, so this isn't a viable solution for many. It's not that the available power is inadequate, it's non-existent.

An enormous percentage, especially in the current housing market, however...

Many (most?) American cities have wildly inadequate public transit and are prone to sprawl. Many Americans live in apartments, but are a multiple mile walk from their grocery store. If there's any public transit at all it's probably an infrequent and unreliable bus line that may not go anywhere near their home to begin with. They live in apartments, but are not anywhere near 'downtown'.

These are problems that need to be solved, and quickly, but public transit is best grown with a city, which didn't happen. Inserting a subway after the fact is difficult, expensive, and slow.

The reality of right-now (which is all a renter is likely to be able to consider financially) is that a reliable car is an essential item in most parts of the country.

The overpriced part is a (relatively) recent development, but point taken

I would kill for this. Trying to get logseq, or any other markdown editor to play nice with an existing obsidian vault is a nightmare. And none of them are nearly as feature complete or expandable.

Flameshot pretty much already does this, though perhaps not as elegantly

I've never understood what counts as 'observing' in this context... Just looking at the thing, perhaps with some kind of microscope/tool? Does it have to be a person who observes it? How about a dog? Or a paramecium?

I think I'm missing some important piece to this.

what does he do all day?

He administers his system.
