I have a dedicated windows 10 PC for gaming only. Microsoft is actively trying to brick my machine. I have to read the fine print to make sure I'm not agreeing to the 11 "update." I feel held hostage - it sucks.
I'm thinking of going to steamOS - I'm a casual gamer that just needs it to work when I have the spare minute to fire up a game. I don't have time to do much troubleshooting, but I will make time so I don't get locked into a console. Shrugging emoji.

"We surveyed the mother-in-laws and high-school bullies of our participants to gauge personality traits."
The meat of the article: "Overall, people were fairly consistent in how they judged tattoos. Raters tended to agree with one another about what certain tattoo features might suggest about personality. For instance, cheerful and colorful tattoos were linked to impressions of higher agreeableness. Large, traditional-looking tattoos were associated with higher extraversion. Tattoos that appeared low in quality or included death imagery led raters to perceive the wearer as more neurotic or less agreeable.
However, these judgments were largely inaccurate. When the researchers compared how participants were rated with how they described themselves, most of the links between tattoo features and personality fell apart. Except for one pattern: people who had tattoos described by raters as “wacky” were somewhat more likely to score higher on openness to experience in their self-assessments"
"No women, no kids" is good enough for me.

Finally getting around to Andor S2 (I wanted to devote full attention so I had to wait for a break in my schedule) SPOILER AHEAD: I just watched the Ghorman massacre today. Wow. And so many notes from current events.
Andor S1 did an excellent job of characterizing the start of a revolution, I knew S2 wouldn't let me down.
