I think you’re really overstating things here. I’ve lived all across the spectrum from dense urban to acerage rural and I think it’s a lot more feasible than you’re depicting to go for a walk around the block in a wide variety of living spaces.
Stay fit and maintain lean muscle mass. You don’t have to be a crazy fitness nutcase, just try to walk a few miles a day and do some kind of exercise to get your heart rate up 3 times a week or so. Try not to eat total crap, but honestly this matters a lot less than the first part. Be thankful that diminishing returns kick in really early here.
I’m in my mid-50s now. My friends and I are all getting old. Each year the chasm of difference in lifestyles between my fit friends and my unfit friends grows larger. At my age it’s starting to feel bleak and grim. The older you get the more your fitness is going to affect your quality of life and happiness. In your 60s it’s going to determine whether or not you are even mobile without assistance. Aging ain’t fun for anyone, but it’s fucking brutal and painful if you’re out of shape and/or overweight.
The older you are, the harder it is get in shape. But it doesn’t really get any harder to stay in shape once you’re there. Don’t put it off. If you don’t move you’re building towards a future where you can’t.
I was amazed at how little time it took me to develop this habit as an adult. Honestly, just commit to flossing every single day for like 2 weeks straight. It’s just 14 times you’re signing up for. Don’t skip a day.
By the end of the two weeks I bet you’ll feel gross if you skip it and be wondering why you haven’t been flossing your whole life.
Just this one habit change will save you tons of grief and thousands of dollars in dental work over your life. Your gum health affects your overall health in countless ways.
I like those little plastic floss pick things instead of bare floss. Lowers the hassle a lot.

I’ve owned a half dozen VR headsets, starting with Oculus DK2 up to the Vision Pro. I currently use both the Vision Pro and a Meta Quest 3.
The software in the apple product is like nothing else on the market I’ve used. It’s not a perfect product, not even a great one really, but Apple have done a great job making VR/AR in their own style and I have a lot of optimism for this product line in their hands going forward. There’s a fair bit of new in visionOS that nobody else has done yet.
I don’t know what the BoM cost is for AVP1, but it’s almost certainly a lot higher than other flagship headsets on the market.
In what way do you feel like apple laptops are just fancy tablets?
No, What’s on second

One of those exceptions is to be 65 years or older. Guess who that disproportionately benefits?
The path to a viable third party presidential candidate has to pass through the down ballot races. If you want (for example) a future green party or libertarian president, you need a bunch of governors, senators, and representatives first.
Third parties struggle to get on presidential ballots because they are ineffectual on a national scale. They’re ineffective on a national scale because they barely exist in between presidential elections.
Expecting to change the political landscape from the top down is misguided and unrealistic.
There are better editors to learn if your goal is to not learn vi.
In vi, search is not only used for searching, but also for navigation. Demoting search from an easy-to-reach single key to a difficult-to-press chorded key combination breaks one of vi’s core philosophies, natural editing flow, and will significantly reduce your enjoyment and efficiency using the editor.

YouTube is a great experience with a paid subscription. It’s the streaming service I use the most and I find the monthly cost to be worth the content I watch there. It’s also an even more effective way to fight the disruptive influence advertising has on our online communities and helps fund the creators on the platform that I enjoy.
Everyone should make their own choices, I’m just highlighting one of those choices that works well for me.

You have every reason to be optimistic here as it remains to be seen what Trump will do to the dollar.
