You can have a good laptop or a cheap one, not both.

This is my Linux Mint Cinnamon dressed up as Windows XP. How much more Windowsy would you like it ;-)

I run Linux Mint Cinnamon, latest version, on a GPD Pocket 2 with absolutely no issues. The touch screen, although it is a small one, works perfectly.

My main OS since Linux Mint 17.3, and still very happy with it. Switched from MacOS after a 10 year Apple stint and haven’t regretted it for even a second. My hardware needs were much cheaper if anything.

Like an onion or like a cake?

After whining for a long time my mom let me see Carrie on a Wednesday afternoon, the Sissy Spacek version. After watching it pretty unscathed to the end the scene came where they show her grave and the hand rises up from the grave…My first official jump scare and since I still remember it today, it has left quite the impression.

And the kicker: the config files show 99% were extracted from Debian Linux. Own Chinese distro, my ass.

Proof the bald dude did something right in his life.
