Do hobbit holes get the gigabit hookup?
1000/500 is the default in Hobbiton, but up to 8Gbps is available across most of Tue country!
Surely you mean gigahobbit
What if gigabit hookup is the problem?
Shire always looks so perfect. I swear it and Whiterun in Skyrim are my happy places.
A city near where I lived had an underground house that looked like this. It was the “house of the future” because of reasons I don’t remember. I passed by it a few years ago, and it looked empty, overgrown and run down.
Apparently has plenty of light inside. I wonder if the cold would eventually seep in. Or what the plants and water are going to do to the structure.
A meter of soil is a pretty good insulator. There is plenty of more newer houses built like this by enthusiasts, that practically go without extra heating or ac, because the sun warms it up enough in winter and the soil keeps it cool enough in summer.
I have a distinct memory of driving past a house like that repeatedly as a kid, but that was decades ago now. Tried searching for it now and cannot find it. I suspect it suffered a similar fate. Can’t find any photos or references to it online though, so maybe I imagined it…
Hobbits walking past the hobbit hole in the pic like motherfuckin gentrification buildings brah, this rent is already too high, I gotta use my gun more
I keep bumping my head on the roof tho
We’ve kinda figured out suburbia is really bad for multiple reasons though
Hobbiton is not suburbia, neither are actual villages with a village centre, a small shop and a bus stop.
Sadly the density is shit, so it’s not really viable
Would still love it, also great meme
i mean i’d still love a 5 floor apartment building built halfway into a hill, those at the bottom get to live like hobbits and those at the top get a shorter distance to the ground
I empathize with the feeling of living a simpler, happier life, but living like a hobbit would suck for a lot of us.
Indoor plumbing, sewage, electricity and internet, are all way more important to the kind of people who are on this site than they might expect. In addition to that, if you’ve never lived in the countryside, rural living and basic peasant subsistence farming is fucking awful. You are constantly working maintenance and rebuilding damaged property. You’re always dirty, smelly, and tired.
but like rural people have plumbing, electricity, and internet? the internet one is absolutely trivial nowadays with 4g routers
I am pretty sure 4g isn’t really viable for most rural areas.
here’s the 4g coverage in sweden for the Telia network, how much more rural do you want to get? siberia?Yeah our coverage maps look pretty good too. However, in practice the service can be very hit and miss… mostly miss.
To my knowledge, hobbit holes have none of those amenities. You can make one of these in a city or suburb if you can get the permit, it’ll just be a strange looking house. That’s not how I interpreted the post.
