I am considering converting an old Win 10 HP laptop to Linux. Opinions?

It says G60 on it. It's around 10 years old. It was a Win 7 but converted to Win 10 just fine.

From what I read, it seems Zorin might be the best bet? Any other ideas? I am thinking the conversion would also wipe a lot of old data that is safe on another computer and detachable hard drive.

Indiana has paid $229k to defend this unconstitutional law; not worth appealing it

Maybe we should focus more on what it costs state taxpayers everywhere to defend laws by legislators with no understanding of the law and no understanding of medicine and health care.

anyone else noticing rightwing FB posts claiming the hate for trump is being directed at them

I've seen two FB posts tonight suddenly bemoaning that the left's hatred for Trump is being directed at them and other right wingers 'personally'. Seems like a new effort to unite them in their deplorable bubble?

This is one:

And this one:

It just seems unusual to me that two people who I see rarely post are being triggered to post things along these lines. Both tonight. Something is effecting them to where they have reached a threshold to repeat these types of items.

Aren't any Korean War Veterans pissed about

Trump asking and stepping into North Korea? How many Americans died in that war? And he becomes the first American president to dance into it? Bone Spurs and all?
