The point was that the lines are pretty blurred nowadays.

No, they’re apps.

I get it. That’s why I included the part about “the family tech guy”. And I think some sparkle of interest must be had in order to learn about that stuff. Or any stuff, like learning Ancient Greek. One has to be able to use a web search (or write a prompt to an LLM) for “beginner install linux” or some such. If the spark isn’t there, maybe buying a new Windows/Mac is the correct way to go.

Undoubtedly.

Life is a long learning experience. Installing (or asking that nerdy relative to install) a Linux distro is no biggie anymore and when picking a good all-around distro like Mint, for example, pretty much anyone who has some basic experience on computers can do it.

Yup, and the egg from which the first chicken was hatched was laid by a very close precursor of a chicken that was not yet quite a chicken herself, unlike her chick.

The first guess was pretty good in eliminating characters. The rest had too many possibilities to choose from, so (bad) luck was involved.

lol

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm or not.

Bird flu is the nature’s way of saying how cruel and fucked up the system is and how it should be abolished. Humans don’t need eggs for anything.

Cheers! Seems to work.

The second guess was pure gibberish just to get any hints about the word appear. It kind of worked. Certainly would’ve been possible to get it right on the third, but didn’t care to delve on this long enough.

edit: I can’t make the line breaks stick, so separating lines.

This goes without saying. In my case, the problematic tooth had started affecting the neighboring molar negatively, adding more weight on my decision to finally get rid of it. I have to say, now a bit over two weeks post-op, it’s starting to feel almost normal-ish.

What an absolute cunt.

By the blueberry with a surprised look on the left. Aim at my mouth please.

Sama. Näin sitä aikuistuttiin ihan pyytämättä ja yllättäen.

Yeah, shows my image editing fu. Thanks for pointers! I did do a search but turned out my fu is not particularly strong there either…

OKT-asujalle kyllä ilppi melko mainio kampe. Talvella lämmittää ja helteillä viilentää. 15 vuoden ansiokkaaseen ikään ehtinyt ilppini sanoi syksyllä viimein sopimuksensa irti, joten jouduttiin hankkimaan uudenkarhea Mitsu seinään. Täytyy sanoa, että ovat laitteet kehittyneet tuossa ajassa, sillä tuntuu uusi laite hoitavan hommansa selvästi vanhaa tehokkaammin. Kaipa näissä(kin) tekniikka kehittyy.

They just need to try harder.

I use Debian btw
