When he was a little boy, Sam Vimes had thought that the very rich ate off gold plates and lived in marble houses.
He’d learned something new: the very very rich could afford to be poor. Sybil Ramkin lived in the kind of poverty that was only available to the very rich, a poverty approached from the other side. Women who were merely well-off saved up and bought dresses made of silk edged with lace and pearls, but Lady Ramkin was so rich she could afford to stomp around the place in rubber boots and a tweed skirt that had belonged to her mother. She was so rich she could afford to live on biscuits and cheese sandwiches. She was so rich she lived in three rooms in a thirty-four-roomed mansion; the rest of them were full of very expensive and very old furniture, covered in dust sheets.
From Men At Arms by Terry Pratchett
Came here for this. The whole field is ~1 1/3 acres, so if you think of the whole field as 4, 1/3 acre sections, an acre is ~ 3/4 of a football field.
I think one thing to keep in mind is how absolutely MASSIVE the US is -- even the smallest state in the US is larger than a handful of European countries.
It's very common for people to live a 30+ minute drive from cities and/or their workplace, and in these more rural areas, it can be unsustainable to open small shops, because of reduced traffic...and people are shopping at the "super centers" in the city.
Not sure if I'm allowed to post links or not, but it looks like they're doing a repress of this on vinyl for"National Album Day", if anyone is interested.
Depending on how strict you are on dates, the first one that jumps to mind is "Dallas". It ran from '78-'91, so in my mind, it is a show that very much was 80s.
Honorable mention to "Doogie Howser, M.D."; '89-93.
Have you tried pinging a known external IP (e.g. 8.8.8.8) to see if it's visible from the LAN devices? It could be something as simple as DNS not being setup correctly. Also, have you verified that the LAN devices are being assigned an address?
I like using vagrant and/or docker to provision the environments, when possible.
I was having issues too. In Liftoff, I was able to long press on my account, remove, and then re-add to fix.

Can't take the risk of getting in the middle of something, losing track of time, and being late to/missing the appointment.
