Alright I forgot about that one. But I think the East Side of Saint Paul and North Minneapolis both have some cheap housing. Not great neighborhoods, but they’re on the up.

Minneapolis will definitely get snow, but there isn’t towing in that depth of snow. That’s child’s play.

It’s a truly lovely place to live though. Yeah winters are a chore, but we go hard in summer. And there’s some excellent camping within less than an hour’s drive.

I’m an NDSU grad, so I’m a little biased, but Fargo is a really cool town. The downtown is especially awesome. Pretty good food, good bar scene, a few museums and such. If you can handle a winter you’re golden, because the summers are not bad at all.

This is fascinating, thanks so much for sharing!

Always have been.

I use arch btw

ATP has a lot of Apple talk, but the hosts fit the bill you describe as I’m pretty sure they’re all left of center. Not that politics come up a lot, but there certainly aren’t any off-color jokes. ATP’s John Siracusa hosts another podcast with Merlin Mann called Reconcilable Differences, and Merlin Mann hosts another I like called Back to Work, and they talk a lot about tech as well. Neither is a strictly tech podcast but I enjoy them all the same.

I’m not on Mastodon a lot, but when I go I like to use Phanpy.social as a PWA. Feels a smooth as a native app and looks great.

I really appreciate your comment. I feel the same way. I feel I can accept both that they were victims of their own hubris, and were other people suffering. Those notions do exist together no matter how I feel about the ultra rich.
