Sorry, stupid reference. In seriousness though, type in a topic into your library’s search and start browsing, check out a few that seem useful.

I’m an academic and I find my University’s library useful for finding knowledge on a new topic. If an introductory textbook exists on the subject, can be a good starting point.

For Most hobbies though, youtube is a great resource. I’ve gotten into woodworking and fishing, and youtube is a superb resource for information.

Not open source, but i’ve been happy with weawow. Free and ad-free.

“Sailing is like standing in a cold shower ripping up $100 bills.”

I had a sailboat for a bit when I lived in Vegas. I absolutely loved sailing. I had a relatively small, cheap boat which was fine for lake mead. It was still expensive though. Everything continuously breaks on a boat.

If I hadnt gotten my dream job in Colorado I would have wanted to live near the ocean and own a sailboat.

A long time ago most airlines checked at least one bag free. I used to always do this and as op suggests, not stand in line. It was great not having to take a bag through security and haul it around through airports and connecting flights, and avoid the stress of if the overhead space would run out.

But airlines have done everything in their power to make boarding and the whole flying process miserable in attempt to suck every dollar they can from you for their upgrades and priority boarding.

I do often take advantage of the airlines offer to “we expect a very full flight, overhead space is limited, and will check your bag for free to your final destination”

Same here. It’s a great size. Probably going to hold on to it as long as possible. Keep being disappointed that newer pixels keep getting bigger.

I’ve bought my last two laptops from System76. They default to their own PopOS now but you can still get ubuntu if you prefer.

Also, i didn’t realize there was a laptop war. But if anyone is winning, i’d have to say it’s apple. Obviously anecdotal, but i think i see more macbooks than any other specific laptop manufacturer.
