What was the game plan here? Wisconsin produces a lot of cheese, so I'll make myself more relatable to the Wisconsin common man by wearing a fucking cheese hat?

The thing that I appreciated most about Lemmy and my transition from Reddit is how cordial everyone has been. Even if a comment is taken out of context, people tend not to jump down each others throat and assume the worst, or make bad faith arguments full of fallacies. I've had legitimate back and forths with people, something that basically never happens on Reddit.

I use all of those Microsoft products at a sensitive department of the Federal government of Canada, and they are NOT ready to transition away.

(btw VSCodium is an open source VSCode without the telemetry)

I couldn't name another Microsoft employee if a gun was to my head. but I can still vividly remember myself in 4th grade reading about Bill Gate's mega mansion in Popular Mechanics for Kids

Already did and it's glorious! Steam works beautifully and the only final thing that I'm missing is Adobe products.

I recommend, if you want to try Linux, that you try out the 'Debian' distribution, and use the 'KDE Plasma' desktop environment. It makes for a very Windows-like experience and really assisted me with the transition between OSs.

I agree with this. It's cash. If I handed it in and the police called and told me they found the rightful owner I'm not sure I'd even believe them. Let the girl keep it!

Yup, members of the Heritage Foundation have talked about making massive camp systems in Canada. I imagine it would be largely for Canadians and deported Americans and migrants.
