My house got hacked when I did this once.
At least use protection mine got a hell of an STI.
The ransomware turned by house into an Escher painting.
Jokes on them, I'm into it.
I just tried it and now my front door won't lock.
And I got your feet pics
Got dang son of a gun
You’re either going to download it or burn it to the ground.
Nah. It would just power up and have no data connection. Unless you bought it in Israel...
Damn, this comment blew up unexpectedly
It's 50/50.
When I was young we downloaded cars, and burned our houses to CD-R.
Who the hell thought that anyone wouldn't download a pirated house? How out of touch do they need to be?!
Did you know that you can 3d print a house in less than 24 hours? You can't download the concrete, but you could download the plans.
We're maybe slowly creeping towards a post-scarcity world. If we can avoid destroying ourselves or the planet in the next century, we might get there. But, the entrenched interests are holding on with their fingernails.
One awful example of this is library books.
In the before times, people had to go and take an actual physical book out of the library. Along came e-books. In theory, a library now only needed to buy a single copy of a book and they could lend it out to everyone. It's no surprise that they didn't do that, instead if they want to loan out 10 copies at a time, they buy 10 books.
What's really stupid is that the publishers weren't satisfied with that arrangement. They also want to simulate wear and tear on these digital ebooks, so it can be just like paperbacks. So, after 26 loans, DRM on the ebooks means they self-destruct.
That article you linked about 26 loans is from 2011. Do you know if they still do that or they decided to roll it back or something? I couldn't find anything about it other then more articles from 2011
I don't know if it's exactly the same, but they definitely have a limited number of loans before the library is forced to buy another copy.
Here's an article from 2023 by a librarian with more details:
Other titles are metered. This is essentially a lease. Libraries purchase a title for time, 12 to 24 months or by checkouts, usually 26. When the terms of the lease expire the item is no longer available and has to be repurchased.
Need to rework that to use clay and then many areas could print the house from what's available under the land.
That's MY HOUSE you bookstack! You thieving oil barrel! I was IN THAT HOUSE. I STILL AM. Put us down and LET ME OUT. Where is the exit??
I think that buying and living in a yurt would be a better option than trying to buy a house.

I can definitely see myself living that kind of life.
I totally would.
Problem is, too many greedy people would hook up so many storage drives to download thousands of houses that my house would not have any space left on earth to place it once it is finally finished downloading.
If the outlet has an earth ground and you left the USB plugged in long enough, you would eventually download the earth, then it's just copy, paste you got your own earth.
I want the version with all the African fjords.
What's the keyboard shortcut again?
Ctrl + v
In this economy, I wish i could...
Up vote this shit! If I could, I would download a bunker 20 stories below ground with a jump jet/helipad and 3 in door pools and fun dungeon.

Bruuuhh!!! I usually just press deny all, without reading.
Deny all doesn't actually deny anything
I would absolutely download a house.
They know the minute we can they are cooked
I'd download a house or a car in a heartbeat, and never feel the tiniest inkling of guilt.
Shit, if I had enough filament, I'd 3D print a house.
Be better if I had one of them concrete printers, used for actually printing houses tho.
Except building the concrete structure is the easiest and fastest part of building a house anyway. Not that concrete printing is not helpful, it is, but with a task that's a minor part of building a house anyway.

I would if I could
Maybe she might like it.
I just bought a house. It costs me an arm and a leg. I'll have to pay about 13 years until it is paid off. I would so download it instead, if I could.
Stop right there, criminal scum
the fuck i would download a house, are you kidding me?
I wish it was possible...
Now I wonder what would happen if you put a USB killer into one of these.
Pretty sure it'd fry the power supply. Thats my first bet, is that it wouldn't even get through it.
If it did pass through, it could fry your electronics. A USB killer is a short pulse, and not at all strong compared to main, so I expect that it'd act more like if a neutral was floating, than an actual surge at the voltage a USB killer usually gets to.
No idea for sure though and I'm not an electrician.
