Negative - that's why I was thinking of giving Portmaster another go but am open to any solution like that.

Yes the PC will be unattended for many hours at a time.

The problem is they're already talking about needing trillions of dollars worth of hardware to make it happen. It's absurd.

+1 for e-skating. I have been rocking around on a BKB longboard that I put together for about $750 (custom batteries). I feel like a little kid zooming around on my local streets / bike paths and think it is an awesome option for micro mobility.

As for portability, it's decent though the thing is heavy and the longboard size means I'm pulling it behind me instead of picking it up most of the time. If you want something easy to pick up and take on a bus or whatever I'd look for something smaller.

WEAR WRIST GUARDS if nothing else. Wrist injuries are the most common injuries in board sports.

I forgot he did this lol

Hahaha

u mind if I pipe my car exhaust to your office for a while, it's making mine smell bad

When choosing your first distro it's probably best to go with one that is very popular - Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Mint, etc. Niche distros are a surefire path to immediate troubleshooting.

From there, decide what desktop environment you want. Most distros offer releases with various environments (KDE, Gnome).

There are differences with package managers... who cares, you either run this command or that one to update.

I second using a Live USB to run any distro release first so you can test drive it. If you use Ventoy on your USB drive you can put multiple distro ISOs on it instead of having to flash only one at a time.

Omg, auto-butcher plus so many other niceties... everyone should be using DFHack. It's installable through Steam as well so everything automagically works.

Terriforting in this case

Well also remember that Republican state legislatures continued to gerrymander the shit out of their districts in 2020. The electoral map is different now than the last election.

Played so many 3 hour games where everyone just held their stoppers for when someone was going to hit level 10. By the end you're just silently pleading that someone dings so it can be over.

So they wanted to die. Got it.
