Windows 10 is end of life soon. Been running Linux Mint for the past 2 weeks. I blew away my Win 10 install and wow. It's so good. No bloat. Shit just runs well. It's awesome. Not a single problem at all so far. It's the year of the Linux Desktop.

I asked Gemini to make me an 8 day intensive training plan (I thought there was ten days left) in the lead up to Christmas, along with a meal guide. This is what it gave me. g.co/gemini/share...

Today was day 1. I'll be blogging my experience with an AI trainer at the end of the plan.
