House Flipper, in the same vein, is free on Steam right for the next half day: https://store.steampowered.com/app/613100/House_Flipper/

These are just clicker games without the manipulative timer. Progress bar goes up, when filled it gives you a prize, then the progress bar is reset.


Reminds me of Norway's Matpakke, the "Most boring lunch in the world":

A majority of states already have an "EV" annual fee: https://taxfoundation.org/data/all/state/electric-vehicle-ev...

That's sad, because one of Swappa's main selling points (and the reason they got popular) is that they started out as a marketplace for Android phones, and should specifically know about rooted / bootloader unlocked / etc. phones. Enthusiast stuff.

Their About page says:

> The inspiration for Swappa sparked when Ben had trouble finding a good source for test devices for Android development projects.


Here's the discussion around the original research:

Retirees increasingly don't want to live in the empty desert. They want to live in the convenient and familiar places. Except that's where everyone else wants to live too, but since the retirees have the money, the existing land, and the voting power, they're blocking everyone out.

True that many seniors are aging in place and occupying more housing than they need.

You may have a sensor that estimates CO2 based on measured total volatile organic components. These are called eCO2 sensors, and were used instead of the gold standard NDIR sensors due to cost.

There are better cheap sensors available now, like the one in the $30 IKEA Alpstuga: https://cleanair.community/t/thoughts-on-the-ikea-alpstuga-a...


I've got an Aranet4 and started tracking CO2 and submitting it to IndoorCO2Map (via https://whn.global/indoor-co2-map-co2-monitoring-and-data-co...), but after a short period of time, there aren't really any surprises. Carrying a CO2 detector everywhere seems like mostly a way to give yourself anxiety.

If it's crowded now, or was recently, the CO2 is going to be high. If the building is old, or low volume, the effect will be worse.


Aren’t old buildings usually draftier? So less CO2

I've found old buildings to have generally worse air quality than newer buildings because of a lack of mechanical ventilation.

How can it detect nearby microphones?

Also, seems like your voice would easily project farther than 2 meters, the "protection zone" of this device. That's not even the size of a room.
