Yep. Flying is the most polluting thing the typical citizen of the wealthy world has access too.
It is not as bad as the ultra rich taking their 200 foot yacht to helicopter ski down the melting glaciers of the antarctic, but a single long flight exceeds the annual per capita emissions for a large chunk of the world.
there’s about 8.3 billion people in the world right now, so driving a car is something about 16% of the world does. Though that assumes most people have one car per person, and suspect that may not be true. The wealthier people have several cars per person, which lowers what fraction of the world drives. Though I couldn’t find any statistics on how many people regularly drive in the world.
For what it’s worth for the “average american household” transportation is usually their largest source of emissions. https://coolclimate.berkeley.edu/calculator
Can you set your NAT to port forward a port to your ssh host?
I’m currently using yggdrasil to deal with this problem, though I’ve also used tor hidden services.
This.
The way to know where you are in the pollution impact is if you drive a car you’re in the top 10%. If you regularly fly you’re in the 1%, and if you fly a private jet you’re in 0.1%
Why rich people use so much more energy: It’s mainly all the traveling, says a comprehensive new study. https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2020/3/20/21184814/climate-change-energy-income-inequality
Debian has a page of resources available over tor. https://onion.debian.org/
Which includes the archive (ftp.debian.org) http://2s4yqjx5ul6okpp3f2gaunr2syex5jgbfpfvhxxbbjwnrsvbk5v3qbid.onion/
Maybe save a copy of onion.debian.org?
Vast amounts of time on bandcamp?

I’ve seen some rural people say EVs are better because you can recharge them at home and not need to drive a bunch of miles to get to the nearest gas station. This gets even easier of they have solar.
I tested my US middle school student who, when forced to pick a country on this wikipedia blank world map, https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cf/A_large_blank_world_map_with_oceans_marked_in_blue.PNG picked Ireland.
I did get it right, though uh thank you to reporting from ukraine for your news tied to map animations.
The “Justice” department has a search tool, though they might hide files again… https://www.justice.gov/epstein/search
I also saw some of the datasets on the torrent trackers and they’re tens of gigabytes.
Eeew…
I had a coworker who’s laptop started emitting smoke in a meeting. thankfully this was in the days when you could still remove batteries. That was a nice safety feature.
Yikes!
What brand was that garbage?
I’m curious why Chrome OS had such a big drop?
I remember one of the xmpp devs mentioning one reason the XEP-174 spec became less popular was there’s no good way to support OMEMO. This may or may not matter to you especially over a yggdrasil encrypted network, but it’s probably worth keeping in mind
try “flatpak remove --unused”
The transcription of D is wrong. It should be:
sed 's/\([a-zA-Z]\+\)/\n&\n/g; s/\n\(.\)\(.*\)\(.\)\n/\3\2\1/g; s/\n//g' file.txt
also D is correct, assuming file.txt contains a list of words one per line
Welcome to the software commune comrade!
For someone doing solitaire and mahjong, maybe try iagno (reversi), tetravex (tile layout puzzle), or minesweeper.
Being around too many antagonistic people is stressful.
“The impact of election stress: Is political anxiety harming your health?: Psychological science shows that politics can harm our physical and mental health, but the positive aspects of political engagement can lead to greater well-being”
“In polarized communities, they found that bonding ties, or bonds between people who are similar (in this case, politically similar), were linked with better physical and mental health (International Political Science Review, Vol. 75, No. 3, 2022). Bridging ties—connections with dissimilar people—were associated with worse overall health for people who were politically isolated.”

There’s a big difference between analyzing your enemy and letting them shout at you constantly. I can research conservative evangelicals attitudes without having to let one set up a loudspeaker next to my house.
The conservative troll types are also the ones most likely to try and argue about echo chambers because their style of rage farming doesn’t work if everyone avoids them.
You might try adding more gateways to the conf file?
Or if you’ve got a host your trying to connect to I think I’ve seen people get a VPN connection through ssh? https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VPN_over_SSH
