I use NTFS with Linux a lot, and have for years. The only issue I’ve ever had was Linux not being able to recover it properly after unsafely disconnecting it, but Windows fixed it just fine

That happened with Windows 8 and Vista as well. There was a running joke that every other Windows release was garbage when I was growing up.
And the joke works with 8 and 10 both being shitty, because they skipped 9, which would have been the good one.
They really should have gone with Windows Nine, to bring the naming scheme in line with Xbox One while also avoiding the startswith.('Windows 9')

This meme is older than windows 8
Crash Nebula and The Crimson Chin from Fairly Oddparents are both great
Backslash is allowed too - how do you escape that?
It’s backslashes all the way down
Fair; that was mostly a general warning, not necessarily directed at you, because many people do copypaste terminal commands without knowing what they are actually doing.
As long as you understand what a command does, absolutely go for it. No point typing that shit out when somebody else already has
Do not copy and paste into Bash if you don’t understand the commands you’re pasting in
This is the biggest thing. I’m very comfortable in Bash, but that is not the norm; the second my wife needs to run sudo apt get
, she’s out, fuck that
It’s probably the standard in both POSIX and the Single UNIX Specification, so I guess ask Ken Thompson?
LxQt is nice, it is barebones like Xfce, but built on the Qt framework like KDE. Xfce uses GTK, like GNOME.
I specifically like Xfce or LxQt, because I generally run older hardware; I suppose my biggest question is how easily I could use either (not overly picky about which). I’m not sure which desktop environment LMDE defaults to, but both Gnome and KDE are deal-breakers for me, unless it’s easily changeable.
I don’t have that problem on my actual Debian machines, because they’re headless anyways, there is no desktop environment at all
I’ve been curious about LMDE, I use the Xfce version of regular Mint, but am comfortable in Debian (at least, server Debian). How does LMDE compare?
Linux vs. Windows doesn’t generally affect the cost unless you’re building the machine yourself, or buying from a Linux specific vendor like Framework (which are generally more expensive than what you’ll find at Best Buy anyways). The major PC manufacturers are going to have Windows pre-installed whether you want it or not.
Well, hockey season is starting up again soon, so there’s that
Pascal or Camel are best cases
A second person would help a lot, but not be entirely necessary. They are designed to be swappable
The fridge door one is perfectly realistic, those are designed to be swappable.
It’s not real, it’s an xkcd joke
Right? Big whoop, votes are public. Oh no, people might find out I’m an an-com from my voting patterns, instead of from my comments
The plastic isn’t really a huge driver of climate change, the problems it causes are different.
For the climate change comparison, notice that the old boat has oars, but the new boat has a gas engine
