Using two different numbering schemes is NOT easier to remember and navigate. It's harder to remember and navigate.
Stop making stupid claims with zero evidence, and expecting your community to just believe you and parrot your incorrect statements unthinkingly. It's insulting and unethical. Show your research, or just stay silent. But never, never try to spread stupid falsehoods.

Happy #WorldPhotographyDay !
This is one of my favourite images from last autumn in Scotland's Ancient Caledonian Forest. In the dark of morning, I hiked up this pathless steep sided hill to gain a view over the magnificent glen beyond and was treated to an exceptional sunrise. Amazing to see all these regenerating pine saplings growing on the higher slopes.

Mid-century Modernist teacups by Figgjo Norway.
These are so quirky and playful. They used to be somewhat abundant. So, people thought nothing of passing them onto secondhand stores. Like many things from that era, this is changing. I may be forced to collect something else! But really, I don't need lots of things. These in particular make me happy.
They remind me of the country teaparties my mother used to hold. The young ladies attending might have been living on farms, but they knew how to dress up with hats, gloves, and beautiful dresses! I was usually situated on the floor between my mother and the coffee table.
@Ivy Blackledge Whitfield @Joyce Donahue @Katherine Bond @Janet Logan 🏳️⚧️ @Jodi @Susan ✶✶✶✶ Virtual tea party! Feel free to join. Even if you aren't named, you are still loved!

my laptop (windows 10) is 7 1/2 years old.
My next laptop I get, I'm going to see if I can get Linux installed on it.
I've had enough of windows for many years now.

in reply to It's FOSS • • •I wish we could push more Linux into the world somehow. Not only would it help users, but it would also benefit ecosystem hugely.
Look at Steam Deck, it has done a massive amount for Linux. People will say Android but I don't see how that contributed so much to the ecosystem.
I'd love to see more laptops with Linux pre-installed. And at competitive prices, not just some outliers.
