Linguistics is cool AF! A lot of people think (I certainly used to) English is a romance language, sharing as much as it does from French. But it is Germanic!

While something like 90% of the dictionary owes itself to French in loan words, 95% of the most commonly used words, and the Grammer by which they're used, belongs to the Germanic language family!

Fun linguistics fact for ya! Now you don't have to play that game.

The lack of commercialization being shoved down and up your orifices is really nice.

Idk... what with the world burning at an alarming rate. Might be a good thing to cool it with the air travel for a bit.

Lol I thought this for years! I always thought it was a bold choice for a bumper sticker. I was like "Ya! You do you!" To be honest idk what they mean by salt life. Slut life I could wrap my head around. But salt? Do they harbor ambitions to become deckhands?

That's what people are missing here. It's essentially just a vehicle for anyone to bribe trump nice and easy.

Holy hell that IS metal. No black lung in heaven indeed!

Sounds metal AF.

I mean how many miles a day are most routes? Why order bigger specs if you don't need them? I can't imagine most carriers go more than 20 mi a day. I am curious though, I'm sure someone's crunched the numbers on it.

Miss Caligula

 

Thank you all who reached out, it really was awesome.

Was super easy, even my Nvidia cards driver was basically automated. Haven't played anything yet but I'm sure I'll be fine.

I opened up the command thingy a couple of times just to get some settings how I wanted them, but could have gotten by without it.

The biggest stumbling block for me personally was getting the thumb drive in order, then the hardware to boot from it. First you gotta use a thing called Rufus to format the drive correctly, not sure how or why, but you do.

And then I couldn't get my laptop to load bios no matter what key/s I mashed at restart, but searching " advanced startup options" in settings brought me to a menu to reboot from my (now correctly formatted) USB drive.

The rest drove itself. Still some stuff to figure out with it but it's doable. Very polished and user friendly.Thank you all again so much!

I just fucking can't with windows anymore. I'd preach about it but I imagine you've heard it all. I have minimal computer expertise.

I use my PC mainly for streaming, downloading torrent files who's copyright you don't need to worry about, and light gaming. Usually just messing with New Vegas mods.

If someone knows of a good YouTube channel or guide or something written for andelder millennial caveman I would be grateful.

Edit: after having been recommended mint OS and giving it a quick Google, I got this! I haven't fucked with anything linux scince the early aughts. And holy shit has that come a ways. Guess I remembered back and got a little intimidated. Mint is downloading now. As a small f.u. I booted up edge to do it. Ty you beautiful people!

 
 

Sorry to flood y'all with photos of the same cat. I have time on my hands for a bit and have been posting daily. If you guys get sick of it let me know and I'll cool it.

This is Miss Caligula, we call her calie or just kitty for the most part. I found her as a stray kitten a few years ago. She's the most social cat, will go on walks with you and involve herself with most activities. I swear sometimes she understands English.

Great mouser, horrible birder (thank God). I know there's a lot of good reasons to keep cats indoors but she was not having it. We try to keep her collar on when she's outside. Such a good kitty

 

An older pic but one of my favorites
