People who started learning a second language, how has it made you aware how broken English is ?
I don't feel it's particularly broken honestly. Some languages are more consistent with their rules and therefore easier to learn but English is surprisingly consistent in practice/sound throughout the world. You also don't need to memorize the gender of a washing machine...

Oregonian here but same. There's nothing quite like hiking PNW old growth, and to imagine the forests used to be mostly these giants.

Most the people I know that did vote for them blame them for not being in charge. Yes, it is a clown country.

This is legislated in the US. Just not enforced and cars became taller since the law was written (-3ft/75ft iirc, may vary by state).
In Scandinavia they actually care about this and high beam use is part of diver training. It's nice. Also semi trucks will happily blind you with a thousand Suns if you forget. So it's rare to get blinded in night driving.

Despite tech-savvy reputation, Gen Z falls behind in keyboard typing skills

I learned by playing StarCraft on 56k modem. VoIP was not possible so you had to type fast. Style is wildly non-standard but i was typing fast enough not to see a benefit from standard style.

I just get bothered that even on very modern tech my CPU is under load even when idle in Win11 such that the fan is spooling up. I'm convinced they're sneaking distributed AI compute into personal PCs. Doesn't happen on my Linux install.

The members of timber dynasties (e.g. wheeler, as well many others) would have deserved it. These laborers rarely had other options but to starve. Ethics under capitalism or whatever.

They won't do anything if you don't put in the work. They'll give you a 4-6 hour experience of access to your emotions, and which ones are often most affected by set and setting. It's basically breaking down the walls between you and your emotional self.
It mostly gives you a break, and shows you a goal. So putting in the work is a matter of taking from that experience and changing your life/behavior to start breaking down the emotional walls now that you know what emotions actually feel like.
It's rarely one and done and depression is complex. Sometimes you need a reminder as well. You'll sill need to change your neuro-chemical condition and literal brain structure. That could be simply behavioral, sometimes psychological, and sometimes it's hard wired.
In all cases progress is slow. Getting better takes years and you're not looking for perfect here. There is no failure, feeling like your back pedaling can often be part of growth.
Also don't skip regular therapy as long as you can afford it, just find a therapist you like. They're professionals. They won't be offended if you want to switch. If they are then they're a shit therapist and run even faster.

You can get into tighter spaces and it's safer when leaving the spot for pedestrians as the driver has better visibility. At last they did before side airbags.

No they don't give a shit about you they care about their stock portfolio. This is true for both parties' leadership. Consider inside testing in the debate/house with no legitimate oversight.
Fuck you i got mine and all.
Investing is the only way to get ahead on an individual financial basis, but it feeds the machine. They win more from it than you.
Our capital to bargain with is labor and civility. This is why they want to replace us with AI while blocking alternate means to survive. If AI can do it we lose leverage.

I'm partial to blinking for charging and solid for charged. Allows single color LED which is cheaper. Then if you do use multi-color or RGB you can turn red for incompatible/error.

1000%. It's a miracle when someone uses the trash cans or pack in/out at all.
Leave no trace isn't common knowledge, nor respected by lots of people, especially the less experienced or invested. Even the slightest inconvenience can be the difference between the can and the ground.

Im the same with reading speed. You could try finding a block of time you would otherwise just be on your phone so it feels less an jnvestment (e.g. before bed, riding the bus, or break at work). I use e-books so i don't have to remember it and opening the book is as easy as social media. Finding something you WANT to read is hard too.
If you're into fantasy then branron sanderson is great. The Way of Kings grabbed me after getiing past the prologue (bonus points for women written decently). Alternatively Name of The Wind by patrick rothfuss. If only he'd finish the trilogy...

Ehh... Thinking more European or urban (us) parking lots where you have much less space between rows. Usually it's hard to pull forward into the spot in the first place because you need to swing the front versus pivoting the back.
You can practically park sideways at a suburban Costco without inconveniencing your neighbor.
Solution to space between cars is not using a double wide truck/SUV nor parking like a Tesla driver.
