I would love to have the option. Even if the down speeds were the same as I get now and for the same price, having it be symmetrical and fiber would still make it worth it. But that said it will be cheaper and faster than Comcast’s bullshit.

Here is the real answer: Your contract with ANY service provider including landscaping/snowplowing needs to be as detailed as possible. Make your expectations and desires very clear, and then they will quote you based on that. Then as long as you are paying the agreed price for the agreed level of service, they will be the ones in breach of contract for not following the guidelines.

The contract should state how often or when to come plow (include a snowfall minimum usually) and what is to be done in a given visit. Then also include that salt/dirt is not to be spread to close to the vehicles so as to hit them, conceding that if you fail to move your car, that’s on you.

Again, more detail is better. Although a plow person may view that as a red flag that you will be high maintenance, and may not want to even give you a bid. But also make it clear that you are willing to listen to their thoughts/concerns/suggestions on the contract so as to allow them to do their part in a reasonable and efficient manner.

In short: communicate, and don’t be a dick.

As someone who’s generally pro-capitalism, I would be 100% ok with making STR’s in Vermont banned on a state level. Yes I’m talking outright banning AirBnB from the state. I don’t mind someone renting out a home for a reasonable amount, making a little profit, and providing a home to someone that doesn’t want to buy. Just don’t be a slumlord and don’t fuck over the states housing crisis by blocking out locals that need a home.

OP, if you can do something to gain traction in this direction, let me know and I will support in whatever way I can. Whether that’s voting a certain way, signing a petition, or whatever.

Honestly I hate the two party system and I hate the left and right. I believe that there are a lot of reasonable people in this country that can take a reasonable stance on multiple topics, but the two party system is meant to divide us. Like, I want my gay friends to get married, smoke some pot, and then protect their home with AR15’s. And I want everyone to be able to live whatever life they want as long as they aren’t assholes to others and are considerate of others desire to do the same. Freedom and liberty as long as it doesn’t encroach on others freedom and liberty. Is that too much to ask? Call it whatever political party or stance you want, but that’s me in a nutshell. Fuck Trump, fuck Biden, oh and fuck Bernie too.

Bruh what about what I said made you think I was “triggered”. I genuinely think that the laws in NY and CA suck. I am very pro-2A, although don’t let that make you think I’m a right-winger. And those 2 states are very bad as regards violation people’s personal rights and liberties. Also the taxes, the housing crisis and homelessness issues in both locations, etc. It’s two fucked up places that we should not want to emulate in any way.

I believe it’s in response to the newly proposed “assault weapons ban”. Which, to be fair, even from an anti-2A perspective is very poorly written. That said I’m pro 2A and fuck them hoes.

I understand that things don’t always go the way you want. You just have no way of knowing the exact situation you will be in. But I’d rather have a gun for another guy with a gun, than attempting to engage him by hand instead of (potentially) at range and from behind cover. The guy in LA got lucky, and the other guy had the misfortune of being in a town with shit cops. But also, if he hadn’t gotten shot by the cops he woulda been shot by the shooter anyway so it’s actually moot as regards your argument. Congrats, you played yourself.
