Likely less a value and far more a cost thing. It is a lot cheaper to be poor and on welfare in a city. I pay an immense mark up on groceries. I also own a farm, so I don't buy much groceries (produce in the winter, a few luxuries, tha

You mistook my meaning. I did not mean no cash, I meant, little to no "you need to have a bridge" type laws or anything. The OP is talking about laws that effect this rural community, I was explaining how at an infrastructural lev

No clue, not even sure if that data is available. We have a population of a bit under 10,000 in our county, and it is a very aged county. The census said the majority age is 70+.

Read? No. Daily? No. I do listen to a twice weekly podcast that mostly sums up the stuff worth hearing about. In a world that is instant, and where content must be new to be of value, I think it is best to delay our news consumption by at l

My previous house was built in 1902. It had lots of issues. We lived in it for almost six years, loved the place and its character. I sold it for 50% more than I bought it. It never made it on the market before the contract was signed.

This is how we do it. Two on prem datacenters, one colo, and a handful of on-the-ready cloud providers. We serve far fewer users, but we also are getting 20 to 50k per user per year. Needless to say, at the scale we have cloud is out of the

There is a section of Interstate 81 where you can't tune into any radio stations. I believe that this installation is the reason for this "dead zone".
