I've got great news for you! Even with little money (from a Western point of view) you can still have a huge impact on people in poorer countries

Fake it till you make it. I realized everyone is very busy thinking of how they come across, so likely what I worry about isn't that important anyways.

Interesting, thank you for sharing

How would you store the heat/convert to electricity?

I'd look into something like https://whistleblower.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/whistleblower.house.gov/files/whistleblower_survival_tips.pdf

Also consider how your country protects (or rather prosecutes) whistleblowers and whether this question you asked here + additional online interaction history could lead then to identify you

We have a similar saying in Denmark, something like "shoemakers kids always have holes in their shoes" but in this case it's more about that the people in the profession don't prioritize their own craft. I've seen this with electricians where whole house is done but electrical sockets aren't installed but for IT I think it's more about distrust towards developers (takes one to know one)

They're geographically shielded from Russia by Poland, Germany, France, and probably have less reliance on Russian energy. So having an alliance with USA is less important to them geopolitically. My guess at least

From their website it looks like they're "reselling" so, that's my best guess as to why their bill would be so high

Nice. One of the ways to write Chaofan in Chinese is η‚’ι₯­, which means fried rice. Amazing to be able to get that Twitter handle

Not sure this is what social media wants. They want to maximize shareholder value. The teen segment is crazy valuable since a lot of them are able to convince parents to buy them all kinds of shit. Without this segment, advertisers will turn to other platforms and thus remove lots of ad money from these platforms

Haha fair point. Don't know if you have kids but I do - Kids are extremely impressionable. So even without social media, but just online videos, some kids (luckily not my kid) go fucking crazy when you say "no more Minecraft videos". And I know there's a lot of parents that don't take that battle, or that simply just don't know their young teens aren't sleeping but instead scrolling tiktok underneath their covers.
