Usually, my own thoughts are the only ones that matter to me. The exception is the rare occasion when I actually create a post or comment asking a question. That’s when I want to know about what you think. Otherwise, buzz off.

  • Arch because it’s rolling release and customizable. I was using Nobara until a couple of weeks ago and switched to Arch because Nobara is basically a tweaked Fedora. The switch had nothing to do with the RedHat thing. It had to do with Fedora’s phasing out of X. I don’t need X for very much, just actually one little game that doesn’t work on Wayland (yet). I think I’m sticking with Arch forever now that I’ve realized how nice it is to not have to upgrade from whatever version number to the next. Gamers who don’t want a lot of hassle and like out-of-the-box functionality should consider Nobara, though. I love it as much as I am enjoying Arch.







  • I remember it was somewhat available in the late 1970s and early 1980s where I grew up in New England. Its availability was sporadic but my mom bought some if she saw it. I’ve eaten it. Not my favorite thing. There are other countries where it is not marketed, either, for example where I live now, in Spain. Lamb that is younger than what we can buy in the USA is a tradition. At Christmas it’s popular to roast a whole suckling lamb and there are restaurants that specialize in serving it. It’s about the only sheep-related meat you’ll find here. Not a gram of mutton to be found anywhere. There are plenty of sheep, of course. I think here when sheep die or are slaughtered they wind up being turned into pet food or something.
