Do any of you have this urge?

This is a tough one. I have an autistic child. I love that they’re curious, but sometimes, for all of our safety, I can’t explain why I need them to stop talking about a dangerous subject… for now.

Great. I love that you’re curious about bombs. We’re in line for security at the airport. I need you to be quiet now.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

there is a solution

I’m right there with you. For all of you that say to just wait this out — how many of these am I supposed to wait out?! I’ve been doing this since Reagan, and it’s only gotten worse.

Insert (I’m tired boss) meme.

I just want out at this point.

I understand. When my Win10 PC was approaching End Of Life, I switched to Linux instead of buying a new computer. I’m fairly familiar with Linux since all my servers are Debian, and it’s been great. I tried three distros and they all were unstable due to my hardware. When I asked what I should do, I was told I should buy a new computer that was compatible with Linux. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I’m using Ubuntu now on that computer, and it’s more stable, but I’ve still had to use a boot drive to roll back TimeShift after a hard crash.

Punished for success. It makes you realize that you need to set boundaries. Work will punish you for being a good employee, but that only lets you know how valuable you are — at this job or the next.

I have to agree. I love Linux. I’m using it for all of my servers and it works great. I recently tried to switch my daily use computer from Windows 10 to Linux, and it’s not gone well. I’m on my 5th install and third disto. I’ve been told it’s a hardware compatibility issue, but if I need to buy a new computer to run Linux, I’m in the same boat as switching to Windows 11.
