Catholics: Fucking people over since 33AD.

Yup. They should go to 'Methford', Oregon instead...

Yup. Very close to today's economy. I survived on a diet of Rolled oats, Kielbasa and Top Ramen for almost three years in that timeframe. Rent and auto insurance took 80% of my wages.

Not surprised one bit as this has been an ongoing trend for techies in the SF Bay area to Seattle for decades.

It'll be less a problem with small offgrid farms and more an issue for rural to suburban areas with full utilities because most of these people have no clue how to farm.

Yup, was small, but impactful to many. I was just entering the workforce at the time; minimum wage in the US was I think $3.15/hr, gas had just topped $1.00/gallon for the first time and the cost of living had gone up about 20%. Wasn't fun holding 3 part time jobs and working 60 hours a week to pay for just basic living expenses.

The 1990-1991 recession actually made it difficult for many to afford gas. It was a shitty couple of years.

Hoping Canada wins now ...

"The team found that liking the smell and the taste of onions was associated with lower odds of developing either type 2 diabetes or having high blood pressure."

As a Californian yank who has spent a combined 2 years living in East Sussex, England and León, Spain; let me just say this:

There's dumbasses, highly ignorant chads and plenty of wankers on both sides of the pond who will readily make stupid comments.

Any comments about the US being hotter than the EU really comes down to a lack of basic knowledge that most Europeans don't have Air Conditioning and are therefore unprepared to deal with prolonged heatwaves.

Sure, we Californians for example endure entire months of continuous 33'C weather, but we're prepared for it here. We expect to have two seasons here: Summer and Spring for fucks sake.

Europeans however don't expect that and the only criticism you all are entitled to here is that this isn't going to go away. All you Europeans need to be pushing for infrastructure now instead of fucking talking and talking and talking some more about it.

Gigabyte R152-P30 Ampere Altra A1 w/ 80 cores, 128GB DDR4, 2 x 480GB SSDs is about as cheap as they get right now.

Base systems are under $2,000USD. Definitely worth it if your company can leverage them.

...in 2027.

Gives users a year to find an alternative and dump their new 'Fox News' overlords.

FYI: Roku intends to do mass layoffs prior to the sale in order to "save" $400 million.
