I've been considering chenille one of my operating systems specifically to Bazzite for exactly this reason. If I don't need Windows, I kinda don't want it.

Big Ham got to you.

That actually sounds pretty nice.

For most Thanksgiving foods, I'm just kinda over them in general. I've been spoiled by doing different cuisines for Thanksgiving in past years and just mixing and matching my favorites.

Though to be fair, ham is more likely to grace my table than turkey.

Sun.

Curious here - Have you tried a Machete order viewing of the main saga and the prequel trilogy?

100%

No argument from me on that front.

Without prejudice, though. This case can resurface later on, so Comey and James are not entirely off the hook yet.

I agree. Pretty much 90% of my technical education (and a good portion of my music production education) came from YouTube. I'm a big fan.

I had a professor in grad school who would always explain that the way to learn magic was to be in the room where it happened.

It was a lesson about composing music and such but I think that it applies anywhere. Find the people with that special sauce and hang out with them.

Real talk though - I've been using the same computer for nearly fifteen years. I changed operating systems to squeeze more life out of it. Anybody who says you can't have a very long device life is selling something and shouldn't be trusted. :P

This makes me inordinately happy.

That's similar to how I went to school for music for a decade because a teacher in high school told me I couldn't be in a musical because I couldn't fluently read music and wasn't a good singer yet.

Big fuzzy pawbs and trains.

I misread it as "vicious nerds." Still accurate in places.
November 22, 2025 at 2:45 PM
Savage.
November 22, 2025 at 2:26 AM
It's true though.

Summon the final raccening.

Oh my god this is fantastic. I may have to try booting Bazzite this weekend to give it a go.
November 21, 2025 at 3:14 AM
That's fantastic actually. I want to say that some libs are missing in the default Ubuntu install so that distribution probably just comes preloaded with them. Super cool.
