Is there somewhere adults can speak to someone in times of crisis?
Something like that kids help phone thing but for adults. I’m specifically looking for a website I saw posted somewhere weeks ago, I don’t remember the name, it was a free website where you could speak to someone - I don’t believe it was necessarily professionals.

Will people show off their old computers and phones in say, 30 or 50 years in the future?

Is there a way to set the time filters to "past year" for Ecosia? (kbin.run)
This is the one thing keeping me from using Ecosia at this point. I use year filters a LOT as a programmer, and I really don't like how shady Brave generally is. However, even changing "freshness" to "year" in the URL just makes it get set to "any time", which is not ideal....

Can I filter X-Day old accounts as they're likely bots or trolls?
Pretty much the title: I see multiple posts on 3-day old accounts, all promoting disinfo for the RUS, ISR, CHI or some weirdo faction thereof. CanI set a filter on my account to ignore these prolific bastards until they have attained certain age or number of responses that exceed the AI 's smarmy word count?
Why did Pootin threaten the whole world with nuclear weapons, but then stopped doing so?
Why did RuSSia not take the bodies of its soldiers at the beginning of the aggression against Ukraine, and then suddenly change its mind?

As far as I know, the big damage from Nuclear Weapons planetside is the massive blastwave that can pretty much scour the earth, with radiation and thermal damage bringing up the rear....
