We owe them nothing. They are trying to cheat the system. People who jump through the hoops to get their PR should be the most insulted.

Do you remember when Sun Chips changed their chip bag material to a more environmentally friendly compostable material? People lost their minds. Why? Because the bag crinkled a lot. All of the boring late night talk shows made fun of Sun Chips bags. So, they switched it back to the old bags.
Moral of the story is that people don't care if something is better for the environment if it inconveniences them now. If everything was in cans people would cry because they can't close them or whatever. In fact, many items that were previously sold in cans are now plastic. Also, money... Cheaper to wrap water in plastic.
You can still buy Coca-cola in glass bottles if you look hard enough. But they are pricey.
I've been burned before using crowdfunding. I'll believe it when I see it for sale, and then I'll get one
War is like really super profitable though. So, on one hand we could potentially save the planet.. but on the other hand we could get some short term profits. Tough call.
If I put my old man hat on, I'd say none. I think the idea of "classics" is dead. I also think most modern mainstream music is terrible. But hey what do I know.
If Duolingo is too fast paced, then you aren't going to learn any quicker using a different method. The fastest way to learn any language is full immersion with lessons. It's extremely difficult. Maybe go online and find a tutor/teacher in your area or virtually. Oh and it's "ciao".

"Clean coal"? What next? Nutritious Leaded Water?
In my opinion, the biggest problem with Linux is it requires tinkering in terminal which nearly every non-tech savvy person finds intimidating. Even if it's a simple command. Until Linux has a shiny dumbed-down GUI for everything you need to do, it won't catch on for the average PC user.
Linux has made incredible progress in this area though. But, everytime I use a new Linux install, I encounter errors or something that requires troubleshooting and terminal use.
Do you still need prerequisites? Not like I could do an advanced PhD in physics even if it was free.
Jimmy Dore, a man who has publically admitted he will say anything for the highest bidder. I'll never believe a word he says about anything.
I'm in a Western country and 9 out of 10 phone calls I recieve are scam calls from India. Right now in my country, there are Indians with temporary working visas protesting because they don't want to return to India.
India does not seem like a place I want to visit.
