  • Hacker News
  • Make Magazine.

    I’d be interested in other good physical periodicals.

  • 2600 Magazine
  • 2600 magazine baby. (With cash, as always.)
  • I subscribe to Wired, American Chess, and Architectural Digest. I had a sub to Raspberry Pi Magazine, but now I just read the free PDF version.
  • Garden and Gun (https://gardenandgun.com/)

    It's absolutely not a 2nd Amendment apologist rag.

  • Buying boxes of NatGeo mags at estate/yard sales is not a bad answer. Lot's of folks want to get rid of them, and they are still in every way amazing.

  • The New Atlantis, The New Criterion, The Hedgehog Review, and Garden & Gun. And then Stack magazine, and independent magazine subscription. They pick a different one from somewhere around the world and send it to you.
  • Lapham’s Quarterly (though the print version has been on hiatus — and we’re told it will eventually start back up as the publication finishes its resurrection). Looking forward to my print copy of the “Energy” issue.
  • I should add one more. Last year, I picked up a physical mail delivery of the financial times. 52x6 issues a year for $99. I had to poke around to find the offer. I felt lucky finding it. But the font is so small - I gave it up.
  • The economist. I like that it’s the right volume that can finish it in time for the next one.
  • And weekly is the right cadence for seeing the bigger picture for news too.
  • I subscribe to The Guardian Weekly [1]. I read it at the weekend.

    I'm a long-time Guardian reader, but I'm trying to reduce my exposure to constantly-updating, anxiety-inducing news. I only recently subscribed but it seems to be having a positive effect.

    The subscription also includes access to their food and drink app, which I enjoy, and an app that gives me a static, digital version of that day's newspaper.

  • Until it went out of print, The Modern Farmer. It was directed to the homesteading lifestylist wishful thinkers. It was quarterly. The quality was astounding. Each magazine like a book of shorts with exquisite photography. Perhaps it will return. Signs of the time.
