i almost went with aurora here. in fact it's still on the other pc i was also testing on, sitting on a shelf unused the last several months. but after trying out pretty much everything i could get my hands on.. i ended up back 'home', on debian. where i started ~ 30 years ago.

solus os (independent 'semi rolling') and ultramarine (fedora based) were two other non-debian based ones on my short list. i already have a manjaro desktop so it wasn't on my list at all.. i already knew i didn't want it on this box.

youtube, google, gmail. all better platform to market from than your desktop os. plus google spent a ton of money on mainstream ads, and had the perfect place on those aforementioned platforms to peddle their own and at no cost to them. and google is far from innocent here.. they've bullshitted their way to the top of the browser game and pull similar stunts as microsoft does.

i remember that. it was my first year in school and i still remember going to school "at night". i was not a fan. yes, school was only across the street, but i did not like the dark--at all. mom had to walk me to school instead of just watching from the back steps like she usually did back then.

i am firmly on team standard time; and i'd rather keep changing (and preferably with the old time change dates and shorter dst) than be an hour ahead all year long.

random junk goes in private windows. but stuff i might want a history of (research or work related, for instance) to go back later for, stays on the normal window and history.
