Execution is what matters, not ideas. Anyone can half-ass an idea and say “I did it first” but whoever comes along and does it right is who gets remembered.
Detroit has some great suburbs (check out areas like Ferndale and Plymouth/Canton), but don’t write off Detroit based on what you’ve read in the media. A lot of people in Michigan are in the same boat as you and are missing out on what Detroit has to offer because of what they think Detroit is.
It’s really flat here compared to California, you can’t just drive a couple hours to get what you call hills and we call mountains. The Great Lakes are great but they’re not an ocean.
Flights from DTW are more expensive than from big cities. It’s funny that Detroit is 2,000 miles closer to Europe than SFO, but flights to Europe from SFO are cheaper.
We started getting wildfire smoke from Canada this year, but I imagine we’re still doing better than SoCal.
California is still more progressive than Michigan, but we also don’t have as much craziness around ballot initiatives.
I adore Detroit, but it’s no LA or SF. Chicago is about 4 hours away.
A lot of people in Michigan are expecting the state population to boom in the coming decades. No earthquakes or hurricanes, minimal wildfires and tornadoes. Lots of access to fresh water.
We passed a ballot initiative in 2018 that made an independent committee draw up congressional districts and wouldn’t you know it, the state suddenly went blue when no one could gerrymander anymore! Legal recreational weed, legal abortion, free school lunches, the progressives are moving fast with the new majority.
What area all depends on how much winter you can take. Detroit-Ann Arbor area is probably the mildest, followed by Grand Rapids-Kalamazoo (great cities, lake effect snow storms), Up North (even worse snow) and da UP (Marquette is amazing but if you don’t like snow sports you’ll go insane).
$500k will but you a great house in some suburbs or a decent house in a hot market.

I tried that but the app froze
Do people these days still know O’Reilly books? I’ve seen a few posts over the past couple years that are essentially asking “how did you figure out how to program without Stack Overflow?”
Neither of those assertions are true, I don’t think you’re arguing from an informed position.
I’m more comfortable with macOS than Windows and find many of the UX patterns on Windows to be grating. It doesn’t mean Windows is insane, just that I’m more accustomed to the macOS patterns.
FWIW the Dock can be hidden, and the menu bar at the top can hide as well when an app is in full screen mode.
It’s not the best experience, but it works. It also means that Mastodon users can boost Lemmy posts and other Mastodon users may wind up commenting.
I follow a couple Lemmy communities from Mastodon. If you create a Mastodon account and search for @technology@lemmy.world
you can subscribe to new posts, which get boosted into your feed. You can upvote by favoriting a post and you can reply from Mastodon and it’ll show up on Lemmy.
I can also follow Lemmy users, like by searching for mxwarp@lemmy.world
and your posts (but not comments) will show up in my feed.
If you make a post and tag @[email protected] it should post the first line as the title. If you include a link, I think it will post it as a link too.
Edit: found the issue, it looks like links aren’t supported but it uses the first part of a post as the title.
IIRC the post format is:
Title

Body text
I saw your post on Mastodon, that’s where I found out about it!
The difference between Docker and a VM is that Docker shares a kernel, but provides isolated processes and filesystems. macOS has a very distinct kernel from Linux (hence why Docker on macOS uses a Linux VM), I would be shocked if it could run on a Linux Docker host. Maybe you were running macOS in a VM?
What is RTX in this context?
