The only bad thing about switching to Linux is that you can only do it once.
(Ok, sure you could switch back to Windows and then back to Linux again but nobody does that...)

wrote 17 days ago last edited byI switched back to Windows, because Mandrake was frustrating, but Ubuntu got me back a few years later. It helped that I was into Richard Stallman and the philosophy of free software. There were a few Linux supporters in the local punk scene, too.

I mainly game on Xbox but run Linux exclusively on my PC. I am considering cancelling my Xbox Gamepass Ultimate sub but my kids also use it. That's a tough one.

wrote 16 days ago last edited byCall it caring fatigue. There are causes that I care about and that I spend my time and energy on. But over the course of 2020-2025, every little thing-of-the-week issue that popped up demanded that I stop buying socks at target, or burritos at chipotle, canned beans or pens or video games or cloud services or t-shirts or shoes or plastic cups or what have you. I just don't have it in me to pretend to care about everything that everybody else cares about all the time. I'm picking my 2-3 things and sticking with them
