Not at all religious/Christian, but this would be a nice shot for those who are. Lovely sunset, and where I spotted it on the edge of our village made for a nice composition. #Photography

Yup, everyone using Gen AI just now is a heroin user on their first hit from the dealer. https://www.wheresyoured.at/ais-economics-dont-make-sense/ #LLM #GenAI #AI

If ever there was a right place to ask this question: what’s the easiest way to help a person off of Windows on their laptop to Linux Mint? Like is there a nice bootable USB image they can have a mess around with and still use their Windows drive? So they can be happy to backup, nuke windows and install Mint. @emsquared I think you might have tips here ?
