I mean… Dell is headquartered in Austin and Apple has a fairly large presence there as well.

  1. Require rental properties to be registered and report when vacant.
  2. Block any new single dwelling rental property purchases.
  3. Only allow more rental property purchases when vacancy rate is below a certain threshold in a metropolitan area.

As someone working in hardware support, I did exactly this and tell others to do this, especially if they have a kid in middle or high school. Sooo much cheaper to bite the bullet on the front end and then have a printer that’ll last a decade.

If you need a ton of local storage, it would be cheaper to buy a NAS and some 20TB drives for it than to upgrade from a Studio to a Mac Pro. Especially with a 10-gig Ethernet connection.

My guess is that it didn’t. I wonder if all of the subreddits going dark left the front page and r/all open to god knows what from more unsavory subs, and when Reddit realized that it was happening, pulled the plug until they were able to filter out anything less-than-corporate-allowable on the front page.

Yeah… except that users that only use Reddit on mobile browsers are going to be the ones who refused to use any app at all and will probably not use it on mobile any longer.
