headphone jack, NFC, and microSD
The holy trinity.
I need to move on from my LG (RIP) G6 soon due to battery life and apps becoming unsupported so I've been shopping around.
Right now I have a headphone jack, NFC, MicroSD, FM Radio and 4k video recording. I'll probably have to give up the radio at least if not more to get a well rounded phone.
The G6 came out 7 years ago but it feels like most new phones are a downgrade in comparsion.

I've noticed routers in recent years have default passwords like "wristrhino040" printed on the sticker on the bottom. I suspect we'll see more of that.

Cheap living in blue states exists, ask me how I know.

No, as a person in a magenta county this map tracks.
The state has a problem with alcohol, much of the culture revovles around it.
Bars have so much power here they successfully lobby to keep weed illegal. They're like a cartel.

The difference is real, Wisconsin has the Tavern League. Powerful group and a big reason why theres no legal weed in Wisconsin.
Meanwhile it's surrounded by states with legal weed.

Terry summed it up well.
I still have fun with it, plenty of full servers to be found.

And you might still miss some things the first time but it makes rewatches even better. I rarely feel the desire to rewatch shows, even good ones, Deadwood is the exception.
Hell even the set is amazing because the background extras took their roles so seriously, listening to the commentary tracks the lead actors noted that the background extras/actors developed their own routines and really made the camp come to life.
It had more of a living history museum or renaissance fair vibe than that of a stale set. Everyone invovled with the project had passion for their role no matter how small.

Right, I think he had a lot more in the tank that we never got to see.
For years I was upset that Deadwood never had a fourth season. When I learned more about Milch and listened to his recent memoir that came out in 2022 I was just glad those first 3 seasons made it to air.
Many people don't survive all the drugs, family problems and a gambling addiction that he had going for him.
It would be cool to see the alternative universe where the other frat member becomes president or the one where Deadwood doesn't get cancelled but this one could be a lot worse really.

BSG is a very different show but there might be some crossover between the fanbases. Deadwood is legacy HBO, the quality and depth of cast is on another level compared to what the scifi channel had at the time.
It's also endlessly quotable, that's one thing I miss about reddit is the small /r/Deadwood sub. You'll see some general "cocksucka" quotes in the wild but that sub has multiple rewatches under their belt and uses the full range. I have to revist some posts there everytime I rewatch it.
Anyway, here's one of my favorites from Wild Bill in S01E04: https://webm.red/view/cn5t.webm

Both shows are at the top but Deadwood's dialogue has a deliberate rhythm to it that is unmatched. If you get on it's wave length you're in for a treat. I watch it at least once a year and never grow tired of it.
David Milch the creator details his thought process on the rhythm of the dialogue and the push back he got with use of obscenity here: https://youtu.be/F2qk7W8_KLE?si=LxeRNs2N_-kzKiGb&t=1196 (20:01) Once he's done answering that question (around 29:00) i'd stop watching if you haven't seen Deadwood as there are spoilers later in the talk.

I was happy to see the snow but I don't think the birds shared that sentiment.
"Where's the damn bird seed?"
"I know it's down there somewhere!"

Thank your ancestors for that. Couldn't think up any new names on their way over so they resused a bunch.

Having to find an ATM to be able to complete a transaction
Much like cash an ATM isn't needed by a lot of people as they bank online and use cards. Crypto has all those options as well.
Point is here you either adapt or have to find a new job because old payment processors won't let you sell your Giraffe bukkake art. It is what it is.

I didn't "sell it for cash" I paid my VPS hosting bills with it. It's simple for business to accept crypto these days, couple clicks and they're set up.
If your business is making NSFW art than you better be willing to adapt.
