Anyway, I will continue to watch his videos because they are informative and entertaining. Of course I will decide for myself on what I buy and why, because I have a brain and my own agency AND can assess things using my own logic and values.
And please don't tell me you don't notice how a sweetheart he is to Apple and Tesla...

If I really want to chat a little, I will go to one of the other small shops next to me and buy a beer/coffee and talk with the owner or whoever is outside the store.
Because I work from home most of my friends are at work during the day. But come evening and you can hang out for at least an hour, with someone you know, every single day if you want. There is no planning, you just go to the places you know people hang out, and they will be there. And if you don't want to talk much, you can just listen.
I feel I am blessed to have this because I was an expat for some years and you don't know what you have until you don't have it anymore.
Here, everyone has facebook, from your grandma to your little cousin. My family is spread all over the country and you can keep in touch via text, phone but seeing what they are doing with pictures on facebook is very convenient and helpful.
Yes, the older/younger crowd do eat up conspiracies on facebook, sadly. They also don't read news sites, all the news is from facebook and TV maybe (older crowd).
Still, you are missing out a lot if you don't have it here. For example like meeting new people even. That "friends of friends" feature is immense. Kind of a social proof that you are normal/not a creep/have friends.
In the end it comes down to education. The first 7 years at home are ridiculously important. Then you have primary school for another 8 years, which is almost as important.
It got cold & pitch dark in the middle of a summer day.
Chickens went to sleep.
edit: my battery powered radio was pretty great too when the power went out.
Hybrid approach is best in cases like this. Use the cloud for client facing interfaces and rent dedicated servers for the spiders.
edit: even better, build your own data center instead of renting.
2-3 people in a real office was the best years of my working life really.
Live your life one day at a time.
