You can, but you may have to bounce around servers a bit to find one that works. I’ve had good luck with servers in Norway (not 100%, but better than other countries).

As a dog owner in a city full of smokers, I can verify that this is true.
I agree, but I have to say I’m not familiar with the attitude that prompted him to write this. It sounds completely bananacrackers to me to go into a store and ask to throw something away that has nothing to do with that store. And when it comes to hiking, I feel like everyone knows that everything that comes in with you should leave with you. (But apparently not?)
The interesting part to me is his implication that the world might feel better without public garbage cans. I think if people really would take care of their trash, that’s absolutely true… but there’s enough litter already WITH public garbage cans that I struggle to imagine it going well.
I don’t know about ”most people in the workforce.” I’m in my mid-30s, and not only do I remember it once or twice from my childhood, I also encountered it once in 2013 (at a brewpub somewhere in New York). You’re right, though, that it becomes less of a thing with each passing year.

I frequent a bakery that sells the Swedish treat called a semla. No one who works there speaks Swedish, so when I ask for ”two semlor” (pl.), they repeat it right back to me ”two semlas”. Sigh. They have a very finite number of foreign language menu items—they can learn the plurals. (Don’t get me wrong, if ”semlas” is the price of semlor I don’t have to make, I am willing to pay it, but boy does it annoy me.)
And that is exactly how I ended up never watching Game of Thrones.
I’m neither a writer nor a scientist, but there’s a copy of this on my bookshelf and I wish I could lend it to you: Deadly Doses: The Writer’s Guide to Poisons
No comment on headphones vs. not; I’d never even heard of it until this post, but I found some free audio for people in the same curious boat: Binaural Beats
