I would say fire, flood and no tap water for three days.

Those are the most probable things that people are not ready for and should be. If you leave in a city near a river, chances are high that the general population (you included) underestimate vastly the risk of flooding. I learnt it this year with the heavy rains in my area.

He talks about it in this video (the video this thread is about)

Show them you can export the passwords and print them. It will help them to make the switch to know they cannot lose everything because it is on paper. It is what helped my parents

I realized I was anxious about climate change because I was depressed and not the other way around. I cannot change the world radically but I can do my part, convince others to do the same, vote for the right politicians, pressure companies and politicians to act for climate change… In a nutshell I can do a lot and being depressed or anxious doesn’t help

Staying child-free is likely the most effective personal decision you could make to reduce your environmental impact.

How do you reach this conclusion ?

I had a two laptop: one main for gaming and a shitty computer for school. I had to code on python. It was easier to setup on linux. I liked KDE. I installed kubuntu on the laptop for school.

As soon as I stopped playing videogames on my main computer I went for linux definitely

Edit: it was 10 years ago

Two mains reasons:

Attracting investors

Attracting talented workers by signaling they are doing technical research

Also, people working in the industry might not even use those products. They want a cool job not a cool product

Yes. You already know that.

Dersu Urzala from Akira Kurosawa. Great movie about friendship and "civilization" vs life in nature. It was slower and more contemplative

Trap from Night Shyamalan. I had a lot of fun but the movie is average and you will be disappointed if you expect it to be realistic

As an aside, I love that they have to stick the “worlds second largest economy” line in, despite by every metric China being the worlds largest economy.

For those like me who didn’t understand: China is the first economy if we rank them by GDP PPP. USA is the first by nominal GDP. So depending if you use the definition of the WTO or the IMF, China or the USA is the first economy. But, what is funny is that even IMF says that the USA is the first economy and Chine the second. That doesn’t fit their own figures

Yeah, I don’t understand either. Why isn’t he happy to be able to see his family more often? It is great news for when his parents age and when he will have kids

I talk to people who knows people I know. That way I can get a recommendation for a job offer and know at what job offers I might have chances
