Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST)
  • You will get comments both ways on this, but I have put lots of people on Linux Mint and they never once had to use a terminal unless they wanted to. Make no mistake, what you can do in a terminal is magic compared to what you can do without it, but you can survive just fine without it. I would suggest also looking at Zorin, and if you really want something different I strongly recommend Bodhi. Most of the distros which are easy for new users are on a Debian or Ubuntu base (Ubuntu is on a Debian base, but a lot of people forget that).

    Claudia De la Cruz on Tennessee Ballot: New Hope for South’s Forgotten Voters
  • It seems like a good time to start ground swell for a socialist party, but a bad year to run a candidate as we appear to finally have a progressive candidate in a major party. You don't have to agree with everything someone believes to know that they're going to move the country forward. If anything this will dilute VP Harris's support and make it more likely to get Trump, and after 4 years of Trump there won't be any socialism in America.

  • Anyone still giving a name to your car, and what is it?
  • My 2014 Mazda 2 is named Maria, my 2014 Hyundai Elantra GT is named Elaine, and my 2011 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ is named Crystal. Sadly, we need to sell Crystal, it's like losing a family member. You name it, you own it.

  • I am probably blowing the statistics way out, but I'm 71, a podcaster on three shows, no degree, no computer experience except personal, poor, living in a trailer, in Eastern Tennessee.

  • What VPN should I get for Linux?
  • The only VPNs which are not owned by marketing companies are Mullvad and Proton. The largest VPNs are owned by Kape Technologies, renamed because their prior company name distributed malware, whose top people are former Israeli military, so I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them. I would never use a free VPN except for Proton, and Proton's paid VPN has a lot more nodes and features.
