  • Instead of news organizations holding general debates, I’d like to see non-political non-profits hold more narrowly focused debates. Can be broadcast by any channel that wants to air it.

    Focus on two or three core, interconnected, issues with a few offshoots that are tangently connected.

    Invite top thinkers on those specific issues along with the top presidential candidates.

    Even if the other invites don’t have a shot at being president, it will still force the presidential candidates to try to make valid arguments against or side with people that really know about the issues. The people really should hear these views instead of main candidates just trying to bring their opponent down. And if someone not in the top two expresses something that really resonates with the audience, maybe it gets picked up by a main candidate.












  • I have been using linux, mostly Pop OS, for the last several years. Haven’t really touched Windows since maybe Windows 8 came out. Very happy with linux.

    I just bought a new laptop that had Windows 11 installed, and I was travelling, so I didn’t do the usual format and install linux right away. I thought I’ll maybe keep windows installed and then try to dual boot so if I need Windows for anything specific, I will still have it installed. And I thought I’ll just wait a few weeks until I get home to do that.

    But with the Windows Subsytem for Linux thing they have now, I have an Ubuntu install running inside Windows and it works really well. Connects directly with VSCode, Ubuntu has access to Windows filesystem, Ubuntu comes up as my default when I open terminal, Oh-My-Zsh installed perfectly.

    I’m sure at some point I’ll find something really annoying with Windows and just scrap it, but for now it’s easier to just keep running Windows and access Ubuntu through it.
