My understanding is that they use up a lot of water and electricity, driving costs up for local residents.

Datacenters are asking for tax breaks because they "contribute back to the local economy". In most cases however, the added jobs are mostly temporary (construction)

In short, they're asking residents to pay for some short-term jobs and long-term utility price increases. A bad deal if you ask me

Nice! Which screen is that? All of the screens I've found are widescreen and I'd like to do a similar project

Maybe it would be valuable to have an anonymous "onboarding" experience where people choose the genres they like or dislike, and then the people choosing the book can be informed a summary of the groups preferences.

Also an anonymous thumbs up/down after the book is read could help the group choose a better next book

This is awesome. I've always wished someone made something like this for one of Casio's calculator watches

No, I sell domed stickers that stick onto both sides of a penny. Though I also have a number of other products including deckboxes and specialty dice

For the past 5 years, I've been running a board game accessory business out of my house: https://burgertokens.com

There's a surprising number of people who love to upgrade their board games! It's a great community.

Pinball doesn't have any internal systems that force you to lose like a claw machine or other arcade games would.

I would like to be able to filter out games with in app purchases. Or more specifically, in app purchases that impact gameplay.

I don't mind cosmetics but whenever someone spending money has an advantage, I don't want to touch that game.

I run an aftermarket board game accessory business.

https://burgertokens.com/

Last year, I shipped nearly 4000 packages. My customers love our products, and most of our growth comes from word of mouth.

I've been spending time working on my board game accessories business https://burgertokens.com/

It's been an awesome experience so far. I have enough customers now that I can go to pretty much any board game event and find people who are fans of my business.

I'm working on editing a video for an upcoming kickstarter that we're about to run. Super excited :)
