Ah, that's because you're reading from the King James Version. While there are many other translations, the one I read says "The man who sees and acknowledges the attractiveness of others is a kind-hearted soul, for he is aware that few will do the same for him. But he takes solace in the knowledge that those who do will do so with a fiery passion." - Proverbs 69:42 NGT

One of the major silent qualifications for posts like these are "if you read/speak English and have a standard keyboard layout".
Which is sad. I had an Egyptian friend who told me he had to use Linux in English because the Arabic support wasn't quite there. This wasn't a problem for him, but would have been a non-starter for his family.
I would say one of the few downsides Kdenlive has is the lack of the premade templates. I feel like there's gotta be a site out there for those premade templates that us hobbyists can download and use, but hopefully they'll just bake that in directly in the future.
The other issue I have is the effects plugins aren't always up-to-date, so not all plugins work with the latest version.
I feel like Vocaloid got pretty popular in the early 2010s for a couple years and then everyone moved on.
It might still have a small fanbase in Japan, but interest is nearly non-existant, at least here in the US.

Well there's our problem. There's no way you'd get my Evangelical Homophobic Constitution Party voting uncle to even listen to There's Your Problem because within the first two minutes they'll say "So the problem is Capitalism," and he'd go back to Limbaugh reruns.
This is why routine Preventative Maintenance is important. My job strives for World Class Manufacturing, so I hear all the manufacturing buzzwords all day everyday.
If they are 12 hour shifts, so that the people can head home at 5 with everyone else. If they are 8 hour shifts, usually for the later shifts to have an okay life balance: 5-2 for day shift, 2-11 for second shift, and a third shift option that overlaps.
Even though I'm a night person, 5 is a common time to wake up for enough people who presumably want to be productive, and the benefit of getting off work before the school day ends has to be enticing. And on the second shift side of things, they get to have lunch with loved ones before going to work, and 11 is early enough that they could potentially go out for drinks or other fun before bed.
It's also nice that for either shift, the person has time to run errands at a time when most stores are open and activity levels are low.
I wish I could find it and share the actual quote, but someone on Twitter (iirc) posted something like, "the best way to approach urbanism and biking to conservatives is to say 'I'm for traditional neighborhoods that use independent transportation methods without government overreach' or 'I want fiscally responsible transportation methods'."
To no one's surprise, these refer to walkable cities, using walking or biking, and include buses with the second quote.
Y'all might be imagining NYC levels of density and, while that's important, is definitely several steps further than what's needed to make America not terrible. Something like rowhouses or even 4-plexes would be an improvement, and that would, at max, only add 50-100 more people to the average city block.
If you already live in a neighborhood, you would really only be interacting with your neighbors as you do now. It's not as if your entire city is going to be in the same 15 minute stretch.
I mean, you could probably put a short version of your title like "How Polluted Are Our Waterways", but you should have a tighter title that's not a question like "Our Polluted Waterways and the Threat They Pose".
