I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]:

Hopefully I did that?

Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub:

Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!

Not the best use of resources considering we are in a housing crisis. Another thing on the list of things wealthy people think they need...

Flipside: they created more housing, in a place where people want it. He even said prices in Austin are falling because of development.

Once you've made the money, better to spend it on building materials and (local) labor than keeping it in the bank or investing in Dubai nonsense projects or NFTs, don't you think?
