Octopus appreciator. Also a fan of hippos, literature, etymology, Linux & left-liberal policies, goats, music of many types, Mr Robot, comic books & the elderly Boston Terrier I inherited. She is the best
To be explicit, I am critical of you for this post, & you've minimised other criticism with "because I added a link?" type responses. No, not because you added a link, because you started your reply to someone close to bombs landing with "Was it too hard for you to add a link?"

You utter tosspot

Linux4noobs is an increasingly popular subreddit with a decent share of members who are happy & able to help when people want to transition

There's a good range of distros to choose from (& a distro selection tool at the top of the sub)

Win10 ending has prompted many to switch & appreciate Linux

Having gained a way of brushing twice daily, gone to dentist for 1st time in 27 years. Not bad, some work been done. 2 sessions, 1 each side + a review in 3 months

It's not too late

Took 40 yrs to find how to brush teeth 2x daily due to reaction to the sound/sensation of brushing

Interesting video played loud. On 1 leg, slow count > 15 brushing outer 1 side, ditto other side, count 10 inside & point 1 side lower, switch legs, count 10 each remaining insides & points + tongue

If I'm reading a social media post & the writer sets out their point, then writes "let me explain" or similar, that's where I stop reading

You know that inflatable instant bike helmet that protects you when it detects you falling? The one piece suits have the reverse of that. This is why you don't see those women squatting by bodies to examine a clue. In the future such action leads to inadvertent eyefuls

I think that's a psuedonym for Hoffman, & a play on 'semitic', highlighting Hoffman's Jewish heritage

Partner & I travelled round SE Asia. Each took several changes of clothes. Also took a clip-up clothes line. Washed clothes in sinks if nowhere else available. That, the mosquito net, & the extension cord we bought there with a couple of adapters were invaluable

UBI would mean that more people have enough to contribute to society. People without much coming in can't put much back

People with loads coming in put some back, but hoard a not-insignificant amount, often in tax havens, preventing any of it getting back to benefit society

I do get fed up with the amount of scenes written with great emotional depth, to be portrayed by child actors who cannot possibly effectively communicate the weight & nuance necessary to do the scene justice. Absolutely breaks the fourth wall for me
