Also sometimes with a wireless issue there’s an easy workaround.
The ancient Broadcom WiFi module is the most problematic aspect of my 2012 MacBook Pro, but I got a fully Linux compatible tp-link USB wifi adapter for about £10.

I was so confused as a child in the UK when after hearing about “jaywalking” being a crime for years I finally found out it meant “crossing the street”
Probably Sonic 1 on the Master System.
One of the first computer games I ever played at my friend’s house, and came bundled with my own Master System for Christmas 1991.
I wrote that it was people who sneeze “super loudly” that seem to be doing it for attention, not just anyone who makes any vocalisation at all.
Some people feel the need to turn every sneeze up to 11. Saying like a cartoon character is a good way of putting it.
In the UK it’s shepherd’s delight / warning.
That’s an interesting little US/UK difference I never knew before today.
You’re totally normal and in fact it’s the people who are, consciously or unconsciously, choosing to vocalise the “ah-choo!” that are the weird ones, at least in my book.
It actually really bugs me when people sneeze super loudly, I swear some people just do it for attention.
I’ll bite.
It might have been different a few decades ago, but in the UK these days fries are still fries. Nobody would ever ask for a Big Mac and chips. Chips are specifically much fatter ‘chipped’ potatoes. And potato chips are crisps.
So if we’re talking objectively… Fries are just the same US and UK. But US potato chips aren’t actually ‘chipped’, they’re very thinly sliced. And ‘crisps’ are indeed very crisp.
So I’d actually say the UK descriptions are more objectively correct.
Something about how her face is drawn in these comics really bugs me.
The only problem I’ve had was the Mac not going asleep properly, and immediately waking up. But that’s something I encountered on other distros including Mint also.
Found a fix for it.
Ctrl key hasn’t been a problem. Often on many distros the old hybrid Nvidia graphics and the old Broadcom card were both problems. But ok on Mint and EOS.
Endeavour OS has been the best I’ve found on my 2012 MBP
I didn’t buy an aeropress for years as I had a coffee machine and was like, surely that’s better.
But finally got one, and my god. The simplicity. The ease of cleaning. The nice coffee.
It’s basically my sole way of making coffee now, despite more pricey alternatives at my disposal.
