news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

yeah maybe 10 years ago i could get a shipping container tiny home for ~30k and it seemed fine, slightly better than an apartment unit the same size
A part of me still has the desire to give it a shot, it’d be a lot more scaled up than a single unit though, I consider them to be building blocks. An idea I’ve wanted to do is have them in a hexagonal shape around the center with a inner garden sanctum
You don't even need shipping containers to make this a reality.
True, but metal is the medium I know how to work with best and some sort of structure already there makes things easier, especially if you want to design it in a way that you can shift around as you see if and reconfigurate the layout as you expand
ooh yeah courtyards are fun
Would be better, or at least easier. to just do a big rectangle with them with a courtyard inside I'd guess.
Rectangles are boring
No they're not.
Posted on a rectangle. From a rectangle. Inside a rectangle. To a rectangle.
A better world is possible
Get rect.
