I forget which magazine published the article, I thought PopSci but couldn't find it, where the editor wrote something like: "We're no longer focusing on ideas about stopping man made climate change, we're going to focus on articles on surviving as a species in inevitable climate change." Which I think is the best thing smart people can do. Me and friends are working on saving for and designing a sustainable and (hopefully) climate proof farming co-op, because we don't see rational discussion or action ever happening and we aren't willing to just cook to death and be unprepared.

I would rather see ads or something than having someone work that hard for no pay to keep it going. Have you thought about other potential revenue streams, or would you like to workshop or discuss options?

Overall it's been pretty good. I mainly needed it to stop the problem of having an Android phone and MacBook, where sometimes texts from iPhone users "slip" to Messenger on my laptop and I don't see them until I'm at my computer. I cant get it to take over my native Android messages, and it glitches when I get a call on WhatsApp where I have to open WhatsApp manually to answer, but still worth it.

Spending time with friends and watched a thunderstorm roll through a mountain valley last night. I try to really memorize moments like that because when life inevitably slides the other way, those are the things that help me carry on, hoping to be lucky enough for one more of those good days.

Not even Office anymore, theyve got multiple levels of ERP systems linked in a with Azure resources for doing lots of core business functionality and automation which is becoming more and more a requirement, i.e. if your business can't send/receive EDI you can't sell to most major stores like Walmart/Kroger/etc.

Same, I'm mostly part of specific communities based around Europe/language/hydroponics which simply don't exist here and am here mainly out of spite and solidarity.
