My cast iron pan is a best buy I use every day. Dropped all other pans.

There are a bunch of distros focused on old hardware compatibility. I often install Linux on 32 bit laptops from around 2008 and they work perfectly

Its more of a niche. You probably won't have the huge support you have on gnu/Linux nowadays

It's another libre operating system that is not GNU/linux

Approaching polyrhythms together with singing intervals, based on their ratios (for example 2/3 for a fifth) and discovering and experiencing that they are the same thing but at another scale, really blows my mind and makes me feel like I am poking through Alice's mirror or neo's matrix code.

Meditation is the best for me. Not striving to get out of the "down" state, but just being there, present, watching it, feeling it, being with it. You know that sooner or later it'll go. Just as being cheerful also goes. Arts are also wonderful. For me it's music. For some people painting or writing. Those are ways in which you can connect with your feelings and discover some really neat things when you can really connect. You channel your complex emotions into creativity. I personally think that playing a videogame or having a distraction can some very specific times get you out of a mood, but most of the time it will just be avoidance of something that is happening within you. We are so used in avoiding ourselves. Be it a videogame, TV, a reel, a joint, a beer, a chat, whatever. For me there are few things better than what happens when you manage to overcome the boredom, fear, anxiety or whatever keeps you away from being just where you are and decide to just stay there and look at it with eyes wide open. Something opens. It's probably not fireworks nor spiritual epiphany, but a subtle thing that has the taste of real. And that real is oh so liberating.

Por better, a good reason to go for linux ;-)

I used to do sketchup a lot but I am trying to learn freecad to replace it, as the former doesnt have a Linux port, and is proprietary software

Beelink is nice and cheap

Mx linux is cool.

You're wrong, he is!

Then I guess I would not put muy 5 cents there.

I have to say I learned both english and portuguese mainly through listening and singing music while reading the lyrics. I also use these tools when teaching English students, and have found them to be very successful. Of course you should complement with engaging in conversations, writing, etc. But for me, music is the number one resource when learning a new language.

Is sailfish OS on a libre software license?

Yeah but its a rolling release distro so I wouldn't recommend it to a user that is not conscious of updating the system regularly

Looks neat. Nothing outside the US?

Snap is not good. Flatpak is.

And Debian

MX Linux, Linux Mint, Endeavour OS
