If you don't mind the snow, I can strongly recommend south east Michigan. I love it here. You could get a nice home with a large yard, especially if you go a little more rural. You are also likely going to be within an hour of DTW airport, which is a delta hub so you can fly to a lot of places direct.

Take a look at Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, and Ferndale.

That's a great point, I didn't think about that. Not certain how to test that out. Probably let the glass sit after the first rinse till air dry and then test again.

I love that guy! I actually watched this video when it was released and follow these steps. I noticed that the high end, high efficiency dishwashers still have residue even when following these steps.

Complete shot in the dark but my brain can't let it be (also fuck it, thats the point of this topic):

Surfactants, specifically modern soap and soap products. I strongly suspect that petroleum based soaps cause damage and issues.

When you wash your glasses in a dishwasher, pour some water in after it is dried. Look at how many bubbles are formed on the surface. Pour it out and do it again - usually there will be less bubbles. That means you are ingesting leftover detergent that wasn't rinsed off. Can't be great for you.

I looked into carbon offsets of shipping containers from China to the US as part of my job. I was shocked at how little was emitted per container - Probably cost around $40 of offsets for one 45 footer.

Like you said, the bigger issue is the trucks needed for last mile / between distribution centers.

 

Title. Probably best not to go there till its all settled.

I like to cook it ahead of time and serve the salmon cold. Kind of like a prepared lunch. I find that blueberries match the best.

Whats a good way for me to take the dive into self hosting without getting myself in trouble security wise? I would love something that is basic to build off of as I experiment with it to teach myself the more advanced stuff.

I am more of a business person than a developer, so I approach it from that perspective.

I suspect that we will see different instances using different ways of paying for the service. It wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if there might be an ad supported instance, donation supported instance, subscription instance, etc. I think this is great because it puts power in the hands of the user to choose the experience they want. It should strongly encourage the design of a platform that prioritizes the user.

Right now things feel hacked together, but its inevitable that at some point performance issues, onboarding friction, and UX issues will be addressed. I really think its only a matter of time before decentralized platforms talking to each other take over.
