We are starting a homestead and getting away from all the fuss.

You are correct about how our skin has these natural defenses that are much more sophisticated than most people are aware of, but semi-regular hygiene is still important to clear off the debris left behind by this ecosystem, as has been known for some thousands of years. Once every couple days to a week is ideal for most people depending on factors such as humidity and personal biology.

Exposure to "everyday contagions" can greatly strengthen the immune system without making us sick as well, but not always, and the behavior of primates and young children eating their little green nose warriors is actually believed to have evolved for this benefit. Exposure has become more of an issue as civilization has grown in size though, and contagious diseases are being spread simultaneously from multiple points in the global population with more opportunities to find their way into that circle.

I will investigate this claim independently.

It seemed fishy, but I didn't anticipate that LE would be unprofessional enough to put a bunch of random McD's employees in the crossfire by lying about them being the ones to report. Then again...

There's an option to donate on their website here: https://donate.wikipedia.org/ I'm starting monthly at $5 and possibly bumping up to $10 later on.

This was a riskily bad meme.

So many cheap laptops are about to hit the market, and I'm ready for it.

My gaming desktop is the last barrier to a full transition, but I've been buying exclusively games with a Linux release for over a year now. Buckshot Roulette, Deep Rock Galactic, Hearts of Iron, Lethal Company, Project Zomboid... There's quite a few big ones.
