With books, Internet, ham radio, and video conferencing my mind knows no bounds (maybe also because I don't watch TV). We are way better off than two generations back when they had little information and were very reliant on physical presence and analogue communications.
I'm glad to see many challenging themselves now to actually start with things like learning to play the guitar (with YouTube instructors) and to see some jobs migrating comfortably to online presence (such as a psychologist I know).
Let us not forget though there are also many citizens stuck in small habitats where there many sharing that space and it is difficult to get out even to buy food. I really hope they can at least be given free mobile data not just to educational resources but even to download free books etc.
