When I was a child I had a neighbor who was a mentally challenged adult woman. I learned how cruel life can be. I didn't understand why some have it worst than others. But I also learn to appreciate and be grateful for what I have.

It's been a little over two years now since I orded mine off amazon. My kids drink out of it everyday because they know I always have it filled up with water. I love mine and take it every where I go.

Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] solidneutral@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

I got my wife a netbook when they were popular. It came with Windows 7 Starter Edition. Shit was kind of slow, but it worked. I thought about installing Linux cause people say it's lighter and faster. When I started looking up Linux there were so many versions. I can't tell the difference between a Mint, Cinnamon, KDE, etc. As a noob (I'm still a noob) I don't know which one to choose so I settled on Mint cause I liked the theme. After the install it was slower than Win7SE. VLC video playback was trash. At the time I was using Photoshop 6 and Gimp was a not so great alternative. In the end the experiment failed. The netbook ended up being donated to the sis in law (teen). Best thing about Linux is the ability to run it off a CD/thumb drive. I think I'm too use to Windows though.. It's not worth the headache to switch Operating System unless I have to. I won't switch to Apple/iOS cause I'm use to Android. I currently run Win10 on my desktop/laptop and Win11 on my wife's Surface laptop. I fucken hate how Windows is always asking me to sign on with their account. I probably switch to Linux if Windows ever goes full online subscription base.

What's your favorite memory from the early internet? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

So many great memories.. My favorite would have to be chatting for the first time. It was an amazing experience being able to type to someone in real time and get a response back.
