The best people on this planet care about others. The worst turn into Putin.
I've been using it for work for many years, it doesn't disappoint.
I'm 47. My reaction time hasn't slowed at all. My memory have a little bit though.
Google can affect what every human thinks about anything, because they control the worlds information.
Nobody really understood the full power of a search engine that becomes a near monopoly until it happened.
I think people are disconnecting way too much from what's real and embracing what's not real.
There has been rumours that theming may be dead though? Appearently it's harder to theme things in Gnome 42 but I don't know why.
I use alacritty now. I also used wezterm for a while, it's really good but feels slower.
Overall we are spoiled with choice. :)

I was watching as the industry went all in on something fundamentally wrong. It didn't make anything better, it made everything worse.
Now we are looking back and wanting monorepos, monoliths with simple code, and low complexity.
I didn't even notice covid.
But i welcome alternatives since I think it has become way too complicated now, and it's not necessary for most people with all the complexity (distributed tasks with celery comes to mind).
You can run Windows on a Intel cpu that is 10 years old and notice hardly any difference in performance.
And on the other hand, they changed everything. Their cpus are actually innovative and really fast, and brought the entire multi core thing into consumer hands in a real way.
It's not like they are having tracking JavaScript on 80% of the worlds Web sites like someone else I know, starting with Googl...
Developers joining the team now must understand nix, scripting and a lot of other things just to build a simple docker image.
Just stop.
Couldn't be more happy.
