So what's the other 40% of house prices where you live?

My annual real estate tax assessment shows about 50% of the assessment in land price, and the rest is the house. Depending on tear-down costs, replacing the structure (say, in case of a fire) would likely cost significantly more than the assessed value. I haven't looked closely at land prices, but that part of my assessment is probably fairly close to market value.

To me, the description sounds like GNOME 46 is on the server side, and the client side is whatever RDP client one might already be using.

Sometimes, RDP gives a much better user experience than "ssh -X".

Alternatively, academic needs to publish, leading to #4. This gets him thinking about #3, which leads to #1 and #2, possibly with the help of motivated reasoning.

It's about 30% of the higher price, which is a 30% increase in Ars Technica journalism, where 200% of something is "200% more" and a performance increase is a performance "uplift" because the latter sound stupider, I mean fancier.

Equatorial launch is helpful for equatorial orbits such as GEO because a "simple" launch will end up with an inclination approximately equal to the latitude of the launch site. Satellites that are not at GEO normally want inclined orbits, though, so they don't mind launch sites away from the equator. It's just that GEO was, historically, relatively common for relatively big satellites.

Do you have any source for your claimed historical meaning of broadband? I'm an EE/CS guy, and work in a company that mostly does DSP .. and in my work, broadband vs narrowband is all about the spectral width of a signal, with a typical cutoff around 100 KHz. (Phone lines and voice data are unequivocally narrowband, but broadband for us is still pretty tight in terms of modern signals.) "Baseband" means the signal is transmitted at or around DC, which is an entirely separate question from being able to share a channel without meaningful interference -- the latter is "orthogonal". Broadband doesn't necessarily mean DC-free (aka zero mean) or orthogonal to anything else, it's purely about the difference between the minimum and maximum frequencies in the signal.

The way that Google and Apple changed their application-store pricing structure in rapid succession and very similar ways is classic cartel behavior.

That's a lot of whataboutism and zero actually answering the question. You, as usual, pointed to something tangentially related that was entirely driven by politics rather than facts.

Hunter lied about his father sitting next to him when Hunter demanded a payoff from a Chinese company?

Hunter's business partner lied when he said Hunter would keep 10% of a bribe "for the big guy"?

The times that Joe Biden met and spoke with Hunter's business partners were lies? (Or did you mean that Joe Biden's denials of attending such meetings were lies?)

When Joe Biden called to reassure Hunter about a forthcoming new article, in spite of claiming never to talk about Hunter's business pursuits, that was a lie?

Which parts of the laptop evidence do you claim were lies?

... and we know it's true because all of those are real things!

If you think "one item under under 3 US tons" and "a regular series of 20-metric-ton items" are the same, sure. Most of us are better at understanding differences than that.

Besides building out huge arrays of unobtanium batteries, what do you think they should have done to "make it work"?

You could bother to read what I pointed you at. Or you could just be wrong. You chose poorly.

Companies generally don't have more pricing power now. The ones that do typically have it because government has screwed up the market and put them in that position. https://nymag.com/intelligence... argues further that "greedflation" theorists mostly (the "crude" version) have causality backwards.

https://news.northeastern.edu/... says that "greedflation" is an ignorant political hack explanation.
