I liked youtube better in the era when its leading star was a talking orange.

I bunch of people have forked the projects on GitHub and changed the README.

I've been reading this for a few weeks now.

There's a section talking a bit about the history of unix that I quite liked. I'm young and don't know the whole story. According to this handbook, unix was used and taught in universities, so when students went out into the world they preferred unix systems. As a result, tons of companies started offering their own versions of unix touting portability with the other unixes but with their own differentiating extensions which sort of contradicts the claim of portability. People would write for one system and frustratingly find that their software doesn't work on a different vendor. I'm curious where linux fits into the story. This must have been before linux because the handbook makes no mention of it. Did linux and its free software license immediately kill off these other unixes? How much role did copyleft play?

It seems Mullvad has the OpenVPN option tucked away as the very last option even though OpenVPN seems to be the easiest method. Why is that?

yt-dlp has the -x option to extract the audio, and as far as I can tell it doesn't reencode which is fast. Ripping music from youtube is a single command. yt-dlp -x url

Here's a good discussion on HN about this, including comments from lawyers.

Finally, I can upgrade from Hannah Montana Linux. Really, I should have upgraded sooner. GML is still stuck on Kubuntu 9.04 and Hannah changed her name to Miley back in 2008.

Some day you may find your machine booting into linux without displaying a grub menu. You were promised a menu giving you boot options. Where is it? The problem may be your grub timeout is 0. Set the timeout in /etc/default/grub and then run update-grub. See section 6.1 of the info grub manual.
