Not cheaper by any means. Starlink is great if there is nothing else as it's $110 a month plus $600+ to install YOURSELF. Shows how awful internet monopolies are in the states as in Europe with competition the same EXACT service is half the cost.

Mass exodus because Musk fired half the company and then demanded the rest work 80+ hours a week. He gave them an option to leave for 3 months pay and everyone took it. Those that decided to stay are probably not gonna stay for much longer considering the workload that will get dumped on them. It's a damn dumpster fire. IMO it's awesome, hope the same happens to Facebook. Mastodon seems promising as there are no algorithms and it's decentralized, seems more natural of a social platform.

I feel you could pass a littering ban that bans plastic political signs, wouldn't go against free speech as they would still be allowed signs but would have to resort to using compostable/burnable signs instead. The side effect is those signs would cost more so their would be less of them. Plus you can burn them for heat in the winter.

Personally I like Eastport, it has the best downtown of all Washington county. Gun violence is very low, drugs are a problem but super easy to avoid.

Internet generally sucks, if you can get spectrum you are considered lucky, consolidated is hot garbage better off with starlink if consolidated is your only choice. Starlink you want 0 trees blocking your sky.

Job market sounds about right, everyone is hiring so it's a big competition.

For buying a house, this is probably the worst time to buy tbh. Could wait out for the housing market to crash or get lucky.
