@Omega_Variant The US should end all foreign aid period.
@matana Arktide is the one that I'm looking the most forward too. Their houses look like traditional suburban homes, except they float and they are based in the US. Where OceanBuilders is based in Panama. But they seem to only be in the pre-production phase as of now.
@matana OceanBuilders is just one company though. There are other companies like Arktide, Ventive Floathouse, FlexBase, among others. None of them seem to be into the smarthome shit except for OceanBuilders, but OceanBuilders seems to have made the most progress.
Okay, the smart shit seems to be running locally on a server located in the pod (the entire design is open-source), but I would rather not have this smart-shit at all.
Motherfucker, they do have microphones! I just want a home away from government control. I don't need or want this smart-shit.
Arktide seems to be more into traditional style homes (non of that smart shit) with the exception that they float of course. These also look a lot better than the SeaPods, but they are still in the pre-production phase.

>their seapods are "smart"
It seems to just be appliances activated by a smartring (no microphones or cameras), but why? Hopefully, this will be optional. Otherwise, we will have to hope that Arktide and other seasteading companies don't do this.

@icedquinn Real capitalism wouldn't have schools.
