Eastern Ukraine isn't an ideal tourist spot at the moment.

EndeavourOS on my desktop and laptop. Works like a charm. By far the happiest I've been with a desktop distro.

On my server VMs I'm running Ubuntu Pro because it's absolutely impeccably stable, Pro is free and I like the idea of having the option of not upgrading them for 10 years.

All running on Proxmox. I have a few appliance type VMs like opnsense and 3CX and they're nice and stable too.

Everywhere? Where will we put all the existing things? You can't turn the whole world in to just toilets, that's taking the piss!

I was once not spotted whilst wearing a bright fluorescent orange cycling rain jacket and standing 6'5" tall in an office of suits.

I'm with you. The infantilism of films is so depressing

Just because a DE looks sparse doesn't means it also uses less resources. In imagine KDE would actually run well as it doesn't need all the bells it offers and is actually a well written performant DE.

I mean I can't pick one really. Parabol/Parabola by Tool ranks pretty high

(I told you I can't really pick one)

My camera (Nikon Z6) has a lot of features I never use and probably never will. Bit it's still an amazing camera that I can use to take photos with that I couldn't with other Nikon cameras I could afford. So it doesn't matter if it has a weird feature I don't use when I regularly make use of a feature it does so well. Paired with an old 70-200 2.8 I have taken a lot of photos I would have previously not have dreamed possible with my older camera setups.

I would 100% recommend taking lessons. I waited 25 years to start lessons and wish I'd done it much sooner. It's amazing how much you can improve in 6 months. And even professional touring musicians in really big bands still take lessons. It's only theoretically possible to self teach yourself, but practically very hard, especially if you have no musical background. If nothing else it gives you a motivation to practice whatever you've been set the previous 1 or 2 weeks.

I've never used any fret above the 17th on the bottom 3 strings of any guitar I've owned. Teles aren't known for being particularly heavy, what would you think of replacing it with?

There's 3 things that really stand out for me that I would say made a massive difference to my life:

  1. Cordless screw driver. Bought the day after building a flat pack bed with a crappy screw.driver that just shredded my hand. Thought it was frivolous at the time, but I've used it so much since. It's light, small enough to fit in my pocket and good for 90% of DIY tasks.

  2. Tassimo coffee machine. Bought it 9 years ago, use it every day. Nice quick easy coffee. What's not to like.

  3. My first DSLR camera. It was a Nikon D50 back in 2005/6 and it sparked my interest in photography to this day. It gave me a hobby I can take lots of places and do it alone or with others. I never loved the D50 camera itself, but I did get some really nice shots with it
