RDOF was an experiment in putting most of the capability evaluation after the auction. www.benton.org/blog/new-dat... shows that this caused significant delay in broadband deployment. But 95% of the defaulted locations were pre-authorization ("long-form"), so they will be covered by BEAD.

Job ads from Feltville, NJ, from the 1860s. Definitely no DEI, but saying the quiet parts out loud.

One of the "old media" advantages: You could go into your local library and likely find most mainstream magazines, from The Atlantic to National Review. Nexis gives access to newspapers. With Substack and Medium, it's death by subscription (or, likely, "not interesting enough").

EV in Germany, cont'd: Learned the hard way that chargers at the grocery store Lidl are only available during business hours. Most grocery stores are closed on Sundays. No food for humans, no electrons for cars. (They do seem to offer free charging, so this makes some sense.)

Europcar EV experience in Germany: Was upgraded from a VW ID.3 to a Mercedes EQA250+ - nice. Came with only 41% charge - not so nice. Quiet and great acceleration. Some chargers require their own app and setup (painful), others take credit cards.
