Really? Despite how much of a flop it was, if I owned one I feel like I’d find it fun?
Though now that I think about it…did it even have many games?

What would be even more wild is if you edited/replied to yourself and said, “nvm figured it out”…only to later discover it and not remember what you did
Are you self hosting?
It gets better.
Bottom, because I put my phone in my pocket top down.
WOW. Way to throw me down that nostalgic rabbit trail.
What a fun game.
Ohhh okay, sorry, I wasn’t sure if by commune you meant I lived in a multi-family commune - which I don’t.
Unfortunately, no, the actual town I live in address-wise has a whopping population of about 1000 people but that’s spread out over multiple multiple acres of farmland. And on top of that I’m on the edge of said town boundaries. If I lived in the town itself I would have had access to fiber internet without having to get a line trenched, unfortunately, I don’t.
Because it only benefits my property, no subsidies or anything available.
Not sure what you mean by commune?
Supposedly it drops to something like $60/mo (in today’s dollars). The rest is actually me having agreed to subsidize the digging itself. I just looked again it’s actually 8 years, so on the whole I still feel like it was worth it.
In fact, I remember them telling me they went way over budget on the project so I’m actually underpaying (we signed agreements prior to them breaking ground). So I guess that aligns.
Not close enough, no. Though I was briefly looking into offering something using some high-powered point to point hardware, just haven’t really done it yet.
Sadly, yeah. Moved out here mid-COVID and I really don’t anticipate needing to move (got a good chunk of land, it’s quiet, farm animals, etc.) and I can do my job remote so the internet was definitely necessary. But we’ll see where life takes me.
I live pretty rural and no service providers had any desire or plans to expand service to where I am. Best offering was 768kbps DSL.
I’m in a little bit of a valley with a ton of huge trees, so Starlink would cut out every 10-15 minutes. Cellular internet was…okay…but not fast enough for my needs.
I ended up paying a provider to dig a trench from a distant main road to my property and bury a fiber line direct for my use. It has a 99.99999% uptime guarantee which is nice.
I’ll be paying for it for 10 years…but honestly, worth it.
1000mbps symmetric, $500/mo (yeah I know…)
Some Starbucks locations operate at a loss to saturate a market and ensure no competitors can move in. Hence why you sometimes end up with them so close together.
At peak a city of about 40,000 people that I lived in had 11 Starbucks within 3 miles, it was insane.
Wow those benefits are amazing.
Wait so it’s possible a Senior Dev outside of London would make $35k??
Holy crap. That’d be a pretty substantial cut for me, but I guess that said, is the COL a lot less?
I’m a full-stack web developer and am involved all the way through including cloud infrastructure, API development, database creation/maintenance, test automation, architecture etc.
I guess what makes a “developer” in your context different? Embedded? Kernel?
What are dev/engineer salaries like in the UK? Been considering places to move to…
Hmm, good point. I have an astigmatism and slightly different vision in both eyes so now I’m questioning if it would even work for me.
