Wife and I watched through it for the first time last month.

We watched it for the second time last month as well.

Actually, we started our third watch last night.

Same. Could use a reread. What a great book.

He sounds amazing.

I’m sorry for your loss.

A year doesn’t erase what they mean to us. My wife and I still get upset thinking of our Westie that passed two plus years back.

Do it! Plenty out there that could use the love, and it sounds like you’re ready!

We’re not ready. Could be a while for us to seek one out. Our Mr. Kitty adopted us, so of the same happens again, obviously then it’s meant to be. Otherwise, it’s too big a whole to fill.

Pets are amazing. Two weeks without my Mr. Kitty and I still hear and see him everywhere. Hope you feel better.

What a donut.

Perhaps your award was the friends you made all along…

If you’re still using live journal in 2024, you should win SOMETHING.

Yep. I found it fascinating. I think the version I had probably had a forward from Asimov talking about how we were wrong about guesses about Venus.

I don’t remember much else from the story except this, and the big reveal of the whodunnit. (Or more accurately the how).

There was a young adult sci fi series by Asimov called ‘Lucky Starr’ and I remember Venus was Oceanic in that one. Old old series.

Thanks, I’m leaning towards getting started with Linux and then investigating options from there. The opensuse someone else recommended also looks interesting.

Thanks. I’ve heard of the bootloader issue so I was planning on separate drives for Linux vs windows.

I love powershell, so I’m not afraid of the CLI, but it is daunting.

Thank you!

Thanks!

I meant to add… very long term goal if I get comfortable enough would be to maybe even try to convert my wife… but photoshop/Adobe Creative suite is a must have… how is that on Linux these days? Would this affect what distro I should aim for in that instance?

Did you try others before settling on Pop OS? Is there a largest reason it worked best for you?

Thanks, haven’t heard of this one, looking into it now.

Oh good. I was worried they were defenseless.

Did some checking, out of curiosity.

And yeah. Interesting as hell.

We recorded 65 dBSPL (dB of sound pressure level) ultrasonic sounds 4 inches (10 cm) from tomato and tobacco plants, implying that these sounds could be detected by some organisms from up to several feet (meters) away.

Did some searching. The paper from 2019 that discussed this -
