28·1 year agoI would love to use FB Marketplace, but not enough to have a FB account.
Windows 10. I was happy with Windows 7, got prompted to ‘upgrade’ to Windows 10… I declined. Next morning, my PC had Windows 10 installed. I got this crazy idea that my PC belonged to me and that I would be the one to decide what OS to use. Hello Linux Mint.
I don’t mind paying for YouTube content. I do mind their data harvesting, however. Figured out that my life isn’t diminished at all without Youtube.

That Tracy Chapman Fast Car duet with Luke Combs on the Grammys got me. I remember listening to Fast Car when it came out and relating to it in a big way. Mainly because I was very young, married with a child, broke, and scared to death I wouldn’t be able to give my family a good life. All these years later, it was great to see that Tracy is ok, and so are we.
