    On LTT there was a race and the person who chose to install Linux had a huge head start as the install only took a few minutes. While Linus took forever to install windows.

    I forget the outcome of the video, but I wish he would show more support for Linux on his channel.

    This is me and my dad so much.

    Last year he was complaining about how the owner of the company he works for is retiring and giving the company to his son who doesn’t know anything about the business.

    We talked about how the workers could all own a portion of the company and run it themselves.

    He agreed that’s how it should work.

    But socialism is bad… 🤦‍♂️

    I still prefer it over windows. If it were not for their absurd pricing, I’d have a MacBook Air over my thinkpad.

    I’d much prefer to run Linux, but I’ve yet to find a way to do my main work task on something other than Mac or windows.

    macOS is pretty bad about using up storage space. There are always huge 10gb+ cache files for cloud related stuff. Even if I’m like, don’t store it locally.

    I’ve not used macOS in years, so many that issue has been resolved.

    Sorry, I should have elaborated.

    The laws are strict and would hold doctors liable in some places. There was an instance where a woman needed some pain killer but the doctor wouldn’t prescribe it because it could cause the termination of a fetus.

    When the lady told the doctor she wasn’t pregnant, he told her that she could become pregnant.

    I know that’s an extreme example, but it is an example.

    Another is that abortions in the case of rape might be illegal in some places and traveling out of state to a place where about is legal is also illegal.

    It’s also illegal in some places to knowing help a person get to a place where it’s legal to get an abortion.

    I’m not in expert in the subject, and the law varies by state so it gets confusing.

    My wife and I do not live in the US and don’t plan to return, so we have not followed it closely.

    Oh, I think there was also an issue of cops or the government possibly buying the data from period tracking apps, but I’m not sure about that.
