Sadly a reoccurring problem with lots of white rock and roll “heroes” from Aerosmith to Led Zeppelin to Iggy Pop to Lynyrd Skynyrd to The Cars to The Stones…

That’s why we have “reading”. Literally the first paragraph. So in this case, pretty easy to separate.

I”ve been installing Linux desktops for decades (mostly Ubuntu, but in the day: Suse and RedHat, and Qubes, and FreeBSD and NetBSD, Nix, Arch, etc…) I always check out the latest L…

Not if you are coming from windows and are not a tech nerd. I don’t want to end up being tech support for some non techie I coerced into Linux. It is nowhere near as seamless as ze…

Oh good point. Thanks. I don’t think about cryptocurrency at all. But yes the sigs are now 4.6k. Thats a huge block. Yeah that sure throws a wrench into blockchain. But the alterna…
