The Montreal Protocol passed because the CFCs industry failed to lobby Reagan against the to be against Protocol. They assumed Reagan would be on their side.
Big oil saw what happened to that industry and lobbied a crap ton. Now just about everyone in the government is sponsored by them.
I hope I could have it pay out maybe $1 million a year for 1000 years. If not…
I would find a financial advisor how to save and invest properly so my money could make money. I would give a bunch to my parents and sibling so they don’t have to worry. I’d give a bunch to my extended family. I would give a bunch to my friends. I would restart a nonprofit I was a part of. I would build housing and a support system for unhoused people. I’d buy some medical debt on the market to forgive it. I would lobby a few politicians to do some good things. I would travel some.

-2030’s maybe Humans on Mars
We bought a cheap above ground pool that we put out in the summer. It helps that we have super cheap abundant supply of water.
A few times I needed to leave home and get my mind cleared. Distance helped. I would go to my friends house for the night. I’m in Chicago Area and he was in Champaign.
He move to San Francisco so I went to my Grandmothers in Toronto for a week.
Other times I take the dog to do something.
That wasn’t sustainable so I started seeing a therapist if only just to vent and put an emotion on what I’m feeling. I have so much to vent that I make my therapist overwhelmed.
Don’t know but on iOS there is an app called iSpy that does this.
Any smart home stuff. The story with Amazon shutting down someone’s account and all their devices is terrifying. Frankly I should probably unplug my smart speakers.
The Apple Watch is neat for health stuff but I don’t see a need for another device to charge.
OLED and Mini/MicroLED screens for PWM sensitivity. Even LED lights are starting to hurt my head.
VR/AR is just Ready Player One stuff.

As much as I love astronomy and find it awe inspiring I have to say no. With current technology not at all.
I am neither physically fit nor mentally capable enough to stand space travel.
Globally
Probably being one of those exploited slaves in the Democratic Republic of Congo in the hand dug tunnels to mine cobalt. Or indebted slaves in Pakistan who spend their whole lives making bricks for taking out predatory loans.
But where I live any manual labor as I am very accident prone, or DMV and Postoffice.
Learning about Space. There we’re working miniature prototypes of a ship to get humans up to 12% of Speed of Light. Project Orion worked by blasting nuclear bombs behind a ram jets once per second.

During the Cuban middle crisis and around the time of Tsar Bomba people in the US had the capability to make 10 Gigaton Bombs.
On a school Mac I figured out using some command I could create a new admin account. I used this account to gain access to the school WiFi password and admin account password. I found out what a vpn was and brought my own laptop to us instead of the crappy ASUS Eee PC netbooks. The Vice Principal was not happy. They called my parents for a meeting ( I had a lot of issues with many IEP meetings). My parents were okay with it.
We would also pass around pirated GTA 3, GTA Vice City, Free versions of Minecraft, and Halo CE and run them off of USBs.
5G, Vaccines, MSG, WiFi, Socialized Medicine, Jews.
Extremists are extremists.
Everyone’s got crazies.
Muslims as you said.
For Christian’s in the US they are the largest terrorist group.

For Jews (I am Jewish and Half Israeli) look at the current Israeli administration.
Frankly it doesn’t matter what religion, dogma, ideology, or doctrine you follow. Replace label X with Y. Someone will always take the rhetoric to far.
A similar thing with me. I am on Trazodone for sleep. If I miss one dose the next day I will have panic attacks where I’ll sit curled up in the shower and bawl my eyes out until I get another dose. I am chemically dependent on this medication. Whether the or not it even helps for insomnia anymore I don’t know.
This may be too new but Justin.tv
I did some tech work for a wealthy old guy and his wife. They used AOL Gold Desktop Browser as their web browser as of late June 2023. His issue was caused by him using AOL. I put them on chrome with Ublock and bookmarked aol email. They should probably have a password manager with 2FA but switching from AOL to chrome was a big step.

It has less than 1000 members for a very niche topic. With the subreddit so small I doubt it would start here.
