That's how it used to be. You asked questions to people who were believed to be wise, and then their answer was what the truth was. And most of the things we "knew" were just wrong.

Not that it's less complicated now...

If you're looking for anti-neuclear skeptics and fear mongering, I don't think this is any more the place than reddit was. I hope rather than seeking out those echo chambers you look into this a bit more. I don't have any good stuff to link you too off the top of my head, but maybe someone else in the comments will

X with serifs, but only on the right side

I agree with what other people have said about using the command line more and the gui less, that will make you have to learn about utils like find, grep, sed, and maybe awk.

Try learning vim (or emacs). Use some command like tools for stuff you'd do in the gui. Try some basic scripting for common tasks. Maybe write some short python/ruby scripts if you need them.

It's always nice to get a positive take on how things are improving in North America. I'm excited to see where things will go in the next 10 years. I just had a conversation with someone the other day about not just "running away" from the problems we have, and actually working to solve them.

I was always confused by how the "blue blocking" glasses just looked clear. Like, if you look at something colorful through them like a rubix cube, you can still see the blue color. Shouldn't something blocking blue light look kinda orange through it?

This is I'm great shape! Wish they still made small little hybrids like these. I've heard these get amazing milage.

Increased travel times? Induced demand(s)? Warmer temperatures? Dang, I didn't even notice it happening lol

Im liking it. I'm pretty techy, so I got the gist of the whole "distributed" thing real quick. Honestly, it's also nice that it's still a smaller community. Feels like the old days of the internet, where you could actually interact with people
