When Microsoft announced the end of support for Windows 10 (October 2024), I began suggesting that anyone stuck on an older Windows 10 machine -- especially those who couldn't upgrade to Windows 11 -- consider extending the device's life by installing ChromeOS or Linux. I posted the idea on my blog and shared it with family members. Was That a Fair Recommendation? At first glance, the advice felt solid. I own laptops running Linux, ChromeOS, macOS, and Windows, so I thought I understood the trade‑offs. However, my primary Linux machine is a converted MacBook Pro -- a fairly powerful device. A Windows 10 laptop of comparable age and specs would probably still qualify for Windows 11, meaning my own setup wasn't the best benchmark for low‑end hardware. What if someone has a truly old, low‑spec Windows laptop? Could Linux run as a daily driver on such a machine? I didn't know for sure, so I decided to find out.

And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore a...

As we approach Christmas, we're breaking to offer this classic, that you may remember from your childhood, or which your children or grandchildren may in future remember from theirs. 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap, When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow, Gave a lustre of midday to objects below, When what to my wondering eyes did appear, But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-de...
