My first reaction: I didn't think my graphics card needed eyeliner, but each to their own

I finished reading it the other day, and yeah. Going to be thinking about it for a long time.

Do customers actually like this?? I prefer to be completely ignored by staff and seek them out myself if I need help. Forced smiling and conversation is dreadful.

Anyway, maybe 2026 will finally be the year of Linux on the desktop 😂

My Linux laptops have fallen apart physically before the software was ever a problem. My current laptop is from 2019.

But I know what you're saying. My dad is going to get a new laptop because his won't update to W11.

I don't know what kind of money people are made of, but I'd rather get a few more years out of a perfectly good laptop using a different OS than spend $$$ on a new one.

As a Linux user, I politely disagree.

Of course, it depends on what you're doing. If it's word processing, spreadsheets, and internet, no problem. But people have to be willing to try a different OS from what they're used to.

I wonder if someone had a text-to-speech error...

I block them because they seem like bots to me. Especially if they followed without ever interacting.

What's the issue with this? Other than the crazy price.

About the resume, you might have a good job now, but the job market is volatile. Always keep one eye on other opportunities in case your current job goes bust. It's often easier to get a pay rise when changing jobs than advancing in your current job.

1. Maintain an exercise routine. Doesn't have to be crazy, but keep your body moving around.
2. Don't ignore health conditions. Things might start cropping up now. Don't let doctors brush you off.
3. Pick up a hobby if you don't have one already.
4. Keep your resume updated.
