This is an argument from ignorance

I’m curious as to where you live (city, suburb, etc) and what the age group of the people are

This is a loaded question / fallacy of presupposition

Love the drops-fill-buckets mindset!

Piggy backing on your comment: for folks wanting to put their money to more ethical use, here are some resources:

• Change your banking account: https://bank.green/
• Donate to charities: https://www.charitynavigator.org/
• Vote for right candidates: https://www.lcv.org/congressional-scorecard/
• Join the SHIFT is a general one for climate stuff: https://jointheshift.earth/

These are mostly US and climate focused resources since that’s where I am. Would love to see other people’s resources too!

I just loved the baseline aesthetics of LaTeX. I liked writing stories when I had an itch for it, and it feels a lot better when your work is formatted nicely. It was a fun challenge without having any consequences.

Do you journal? Journalling on its own feels nice in the long run, and would also look cool if written in LaTeX.

What are your current living circumstances? As in, are you in a city, a suburb, or rural area? And do you have financial security and potentially a surplus?

I ask since many hobbies and things to learn could cost money, space, or both. When I used to be in a congested city with no financials, things I’d learn were mostly computer based: writing stories on LaTeX, making a html portfolio, etc. Later, I got into building and flying RC airplanes which truly takes my mind off things and gives a relaxation feeling while flying. Now, I attend various seminars and lectures of different disciplines since it’s a no-pressure way of learning random cool stuff.

Having just 3.5% of the population protest nonviolently would be enough. Speaking of which, the next No Kings is on March 28th!

This. Much of human history has been reliant on renewable energy (firewood, food, heating, etc), and it is only the past 200 years or so that fossilized biomass has been a thing. Exotic materials can also be avoided with techniques such as concentrated solar power for high temperature manufacturing (see Odeillo solar furnace), manufacturing at sites of energy generation (eg wind mills for “milling”), and Stirling engines.

I’ve been seeing a lot of research on reversible fuel cells, hydrogen safety, and using hydrogen as storage for renewable surpluses. I’m curious to know what sources lead you to believe that hydrogen is “a dead end”.

This article talks about additional things such as importing data, pros and cons of Firefox, and other alternatives. I know many people who are not tech savvy enough to even know how to change a browser.

However, considering that this is posted on Lemmy where most users are already tech savvy (enough to at least start using Lemmy) and more privacy and open source focused (enough to at least stop using reddit), I do agree that this does feel a bit redundant for me at least.

List of 3D printers, with their pros and cons. You can just skip to “Top Picks”

You can fiddle with the settings as much as you want to fiddle with it. I use the Sovol SV06+, and after assembly (which you can’t go wrong with because it’s just near impossible to place things the wrong way), the prints worked just fine with PLA and the default profiles in the Prusa Slicer. You can leave it like that, but if you enjoy building, you’ll enjoy fiddling and starting to explore things like different materials, settings, etc.

Also, what and how are you planning on printing? Are you making your own models or downloading them? You will end up having to fiddle with models regardless for printability (for example, printing something tall and thin will result in fail prints in many cases).
