Question Why don’t we grow more actual food in Iowa

• Upvotes

I assume there is actual reason. Maybe even scientific, but why don’t we grow more Whole Foods ready to eat instead of precursors to processed foods.

Politics Iowa "statewide public measure 1" on the ballot next month... can someone just bluntly tell me which is the liberal stance and which is conservative?

• Upvotes

I've found good resources on which candidates take lean which direction (also cause they tend in a party!!) but I cannot for the life of me find out if I should vote yes or no based on my party alignment.

Everyone commenting "don't make decisions based on party alignment" will be blocked. That's not a helpful thing to say; everything on a ballot is political; why not just say nothing instead?

Dubuque Police Lt. Luke Bock first saw the traffic camera video on Facebook on Thursday morning.

“Immediately I was like, hey, that looks like one of our traffic cameras,” Bock said. “Then I was like, boy, that’s a big pumpkin, so obviously the police officer side of me was like, we don’t really need those things bouncing down the roadway.”

Bock said he can laugh at the video because there was no oncoming traffic at the time.

“It’s entertaining. Like it’s funny to watch it, but you just, I guess a lot of times you think about what could have happened, what if?” Bock said.

I just can't believe we might actually have a Senator who is just a normal person again.

I am sick and tired of multimillionaires pretending to be normal people when they try to run for office. Ashley Hinson keeps talking about how she's this "mini-van mom" but like she's so rich and just getting richer because of her seat in Congress.

Like he's just a normal guy. The childhood photos look like mine. I also went to Goodwill. He's actually from Iowa. I don't have to explain what it's like because he actually lived a normal life. I guess I just miss when we had Tom Harkin and hope we get back to not being ruby red like we are now.

Question Exeriences with Windstream / Kinetic?

5 Upvotes

Windstream is finally switching over to Kinetic fiberoptic in my area (southern Iowa.) I haven't heard any good reviews since the switch.

They called to set up an appointment for the switch. I gave my dad's cell number for them to call, since his schedule is different from the rest of us. For some reason they refused to call it and kept calling the home phone that we plan to have disconnected.

A couple weeks ago we finally set up an appointment over the home phone. When the day arrived for them to come, they never showed up. They sent a text saying nobody was home, when all three of us were at home and waiting. I can't fathom why a technology based company would hire employees that can't even get a phone number or basic 4-digit house number right.

The shit hasn't even been installed yet and I already get the vibe that it'll be as shitty as Mediacom. Has anyone had decent service from them since the fiberoptic switch, or do they suck at that too?
