I’m unfamiliar with KISS. I don’t really distro hop, since what I use has satisfied all my needs to date.

Debian for my daily workstation. Minimal terminal-only install, and then I piece together my environment.

For smaller, headless applications I like Alpine. Containerized projects, VPS, etc.

Lots of French loan words are also used by other languages.

I have been waiting weeks to use that image.

The best crash course I received was when I needed to translate my startup scripts into systemd services. The hands-on learning was priceless.

I’m very cold acclimated, so I usually wear workout shorts and a thin sweater. I just use a blanket, when I’m stationary and need some coze.

The thing I love about Cubans is the smell. The US is spoiled with a wonderful selection of great Nicaraguan and Dominican cigars that for all intents and purposes beat out Cubans. But Cuban cigars have a very particular smell that I can’t get over.

I’m 99% certain Trump administration put the kibosh on that. At least that was what I was told when I traveled out of country in 2023, and wanted to see if I could bring some back.

In 2016, the Obama administration eased some restrictions, allowing U.S. travelers to bring Cuban cigars into the country for personal use. However, this was short-lived. In 2020, the Trump administration re-imposed strict regulations, re-banning Cuban cigars—whether bought in Cuba or through third countries. Current Regulations:

As of now, it is illegal to import Cuban cigars into the U.S. This includes bringing cigars bought in other countries that originated from Cuba. Any attempt to bring Cuban cigars into the U.S. can result in serious legal consequences, including confiscation and potential fines.

Legalize the import of Cuban cigars, and I will personally bring Cuba back into an age of prosperity.

Oh okay.

Well, I don’t know the answer. Sounds like you’re going to have to find some way to internalize the feelings and engage some coping mechanisms, so that you can file it away emotionally.

Maybe some breathing exercises, or taking a brief moment to meditate quietly in your chair. Or talk it out with your internal voice, which I think is what I do.
