    Yeahhhhh, having a failing power grid ain’t great for tech, banning abortion doesn’t make tech workers happy, plus the myriad of other issues. I can see why their state is losing tech workers.

    London to Nashville is next at the rate they’re conservashitting the state. And yes, they’ve been moving here after they piled out of Austin, and Tennessee is about as worse as a shithole as Texas. Hell, our power company is reaching for that customer service level that ERCOT has. Rolling blackouts are thing here.

    I’m going to Colorado at the turn of the year.

      What part of Colorado? There is bad areas around here that you could end up with the same conservashit with a different scenery. BoBo the clown is from the western slope, ken buck represents the entire eastern area aka west kansas.
