I want to move to Linux but I need to be able to access my apps that are not supported

If you must dual boot, have totally separate hard drives, and the choosing between Linux and Windows should be done in the UEFI boot menu, not GRUB menu. Windows can render Linux unbootable otherwise, requiring a rather complicated rescue. Windows would ideally not have any chance to see the Linux hard drive while booted.

What is a way you arrange your home that makes it simple?
Always be pruning away any objects you don't immediately need that day, putting them away.
Always leave at least one square foot of empty space on any countertop, desktop, table, etc, so that you have somewhere to put things down upon returning from a trip out of the house.

Content moderators are just janitors of social media: Low-pay, low-respect, but one of the most important jobs of cleaning up human trash
What incentives could be created to make that janitor work less thankless and more thankful? Their favorite 15" pizza - the toppings being in non-stingy portions - arriving every Friday at supper time by gig-worker delivery for the length of their tenure?

Western consumer culture is creating a psycho-spiritual crisis that leaves us disoriented and bereft of purpose. How can we treat our sick culture and make ourselves well?
A thinly-veiled plug for political ideology, which will never accomplish what religion can.
