All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again. Except uglier and dumber.
I think there is a big difference between a single room pod that is coming from Walmart and the entire house that Sears sold to be built on site.
These feels like tech bro bullshit to "disrupt" the housing market.
Especially since those Sears kit houses are still around and people still live in them, decades after their construction.
'the fuck? Sears homes are legit. I've worked on them. As long as the builder followed the instructions they worked fine.
These shiny sheds? Consumable bullshit.
Yeah I’d be pro Walmart selling well made sears style homes. Hell, mass produced cheap kit homes would probably make more room for architects to get weird with it like I want out of a house
it would be funny if that was how the saying went in BSG
