I memba and can almost taste dem “buhdaydohs” as my mother pronounced them.

I memba, you memba?

Ranked choice voting is the first step we have to take to get away from this two-party stranglehold on American politics.

People often have a hard time with change, but RCV isn't really hard to understand. In fact, we rank-choice things all the time: "I want ham, but if they don't have it, then turkey would be fine". "Chocolate is my first choice if they have it. If not, chocolate chip. I guess if they don't have either, I'll take vanilla"

It actually opens up our political choices, because you can vote for a third party candidate without feeling you've "wasted" your vote, or inadvertently helping a candidate you really oppose by siphoning a vote away from their opponent. I would love to see RCV everywhere.

This sounds like Masshole talk. There is no need for RCV as it is fine the way it is now. Go peddle your BS in another state

Except most people don’t understand it and do not like the results when it is used.

I would really love to hear more about that.

I would call them and ask what their new customer deals are if they won't give it to you then cancel it and have a roommate or spouse call back to get the new customer special. Might lose internet for a day but it's worth

God i would live RCV. I hate the idea of having not being able to vote for my preferred 3rd party candidate because it would be a "waste" of a vote. RCV makes so much sense.

Ranked choice voting sounds good on the surface, but there are some pathological cases -- some are described in this post http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~unger/articles/irv.html

"my chosen career field supports my pet politics" wow

Bold assumption the NH leaders & lawmakers have functional brains to care about the greater good/what's actually best.

That sounds about right. I got charged $100 for a dentist to look at a broken tooth. No xray, no cleaning, just a light and eyes.

My garbageman says that he has come up with a way to validate string theory.

That's interesting, I didn't know that. I have had CC for the past 5 years or so. I switched from Comcast as they kept raising the price. It's been the same exact price for the past 5 years with CC which frankly is what keeps me with them. I hate that "promotional period" junk and then a massive price hike.

I didn’t see a DM, but if you post the specific work needed, or if you need suggested on what is needed that would help folks determine a contractor to suggest. (Ie. “looking to have a roof replaced, some rot fixed, flooring etc”)

In your position I am guessing you are looking to GC it yourself and contract subs or a handyman to perform the work directly as opposed to a GC who will manage the project, subs etc ?

At any rate, congratulations on the purchase and good luck with the project

For your own long term protection hire qualified people not “handymen”. Hire licensed electricians and plumbers, carpenters with good reputations. It will be worth it to pay now versus pay later. You’re close to Keene and Hillsboro, there are a lot of good qualified people in both areas.

If there is someone else living with you one trick is after the new customer promo period ends, cancel your service and switch it to the other persons name. This will allow you to have access to the new customer pricing again. You can do it over and over to always get the best price

I've had success using Craigslist for stuff like this

In DMs.

I will be likely buying a 3-unit multi family for now. Then likely more properties!

Are there more details you could share around the scope of work you are looking to have performed?

Fidium is Consolidated FYI. Just switched to them from Comcast. Works well so far, and been loving the upload speeds.

We have Comcast at 200 MBPS for $50/month including fees and taxes. It's on a 2-year contract. We're in Merrimack but I have a friend in Nashua that has 400 MBPS for $50/month. We both call and demand the $50/month price every two years.
