  No idea how and why but my dad once had a cable like that in his workshop.

  Short story: we were having a party bit drunk and wanted power for the bigger speakers, needed an extension, rummaged around and found this one. Of course didn’t check the ends, plugged it in and then thought “oh what a weird male adapter there, lets take it…bzzzzt”.

  Have a tiny burn scar on my hand now, luckily nothing else happened. The cable got dismantled afterwards, but I still don’t know why it was there in the first place, he is a pretty good handyman normally.

  I switched two years ago and it’s mostly fantastic. You might “lack” something windows does because you are used to it, but you get a vast amount of choice in other features, depending on how much you try and experiment.

  I recently moved to EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma and immeditately loved it, and so much of the UI is customizable by default and super easy. PoP!_OS just works, Mint or just Ubuntu are also often mentioned as nice picks.

  Of course there might also be situtations where you have to look up solutions online because some software/hardware might not be automatically supported, but I personally can count the issues on one hand that took me longer than a few minutes to fix.

  As someone else suggested, give dualboot a try and feel some different distros out. Could also just make a ventoy (fantastic tool) usb stick and try multiple distros very easily without fully installing.

  I think as long as you don’t expect it to “be exactly like Windows” it could be great to switch.

  Doesn’t sound bad tbh…i like savory waffles. Don’t sugar the dough (no idea if thats a thing, just guessing) and you are good to go

  Living in Norway, it always strikes me how disgusting smoking still is, even outside, when i go to central europe. You get completely unused to the amount of smoke and stink e.g. outside of stores
