To the point of a very new person to linux asking about the lingo and the basics of using linux, the Debian Administrators Handbook has an excellent "remedial" section in its appendix. It covers a lot of the basics of working with your first linux computer. I have run various distros over the years but when i finally pulled the trigger on migrating to debian from ubuntu, i did take the time to read the remedial section and the first 8 or so chapters to have a more in-depth understanding of the logic and design choices but i found the remedial section to be a particularly good refresher and explanation of the basics that everyone takes for granted.

There is a suggested donation but the author is kind enough to not enforce a paywall.

50 dollar pair of Sennheiser over the ear (not cans) headphones absolutely blew my mind which lead to many a denon, electovoice, carver, klipsch, adcom, & cerwin-vega passing through my hands (i miss my "house" speakers (cobbled together and refoamed the woofers from 2 sets of 1970's vintage D9's and ran them with a 200 watt rms/ch electrovoice power amp as a bedroom dj for many a house party 😁🍻) not to say my current stereo cant thump, buuuuuttttt (i hear an old man in my head) "theres no replacement for displacement" way of thinking will probably lead to either a home theater sub or more car audio

Edit: and good taste in polk! I ran their 6.5 coaxials in the doors of my car with an Alpine 9855, kenwood power amp giving them around 80-100 watts and 24db/octave high and low pass filters (i cant recall the center freq of those crossovers but i think i rolled the lows off around 1500 hz and the highs around 4000-4500 hz)

Same experience here with mid and high end audio collecting for both car and home.

I guess you can, but generally when folks say something along those lines they have ruffled some feathers along the way.

Okay sure the internet is free and corpos are always going to give away web hosting...or i do self host and know that someone has to pay the bill despite it being "200 kb"...bruh, they aint giving it away for free, your content and everything you "own" are the price you pay for admission. Start up or mega corp, if you are not paying for it, you are the product

I disagree, someone has to pay for the internet, server and electricity to serve your supposedly "free" page. If you are talking about something like GitHub pages? Not really a solution if Microsoft, just...i dont know, got rid of freebies once they have you locked into hosting your content with them? Corpos would never ensure thay have you locked in as a consumer before turning the screws

Imo, yes but the things that are dealbreakers (for me it was ads in the terminal) that Canonical has done are across the spectrum. In the end i felt they were too opinionated (see also why i like kde plasma) and wanted to control the "experience" of using my hardware. Always compromises within any complex system and i thought Debian was a good blank-ish slate for me to work on. Plus i self host quite a bit and am sick of windows licensing and microsft shenanigans so i need something for my servers as well.
