The sugar and high fructose corn syrup in food. I am currently back in the states visiting and the food is almost sickening sweet.

Then why do you live....... here? in c/tumblr

I am saddened by your loss.

I am of similar ages and anniversary years, and your post resonates strongly with me.

I pray you find whatever you need to deal with this. I am so sorry.

I feel like that's most of my problems, not "showing up" and being present. Just showing up is like the hardest part, and once done, I find my tasks and responsibilities are half done!

I was working 60+ hours a week chasing promotions, pay raises, and bonuses. Then I'd have to read and study a couple of hours at night to stay current.

Burned myself out. So not worth it.

I finished reading the second book almost a month ago. I don't have the urge to start the third anytime soon (though I eventually will so as to get that 'closure').

Stable, consistent workstation recommendations? (self.linux)

First, thanks for reading and commenting.

I would appreciate any\all feedback from all of you, if there are recommendations for a stable, consistent setup - both hardware and OS. Or comments that I am asking for something unrealistic. Either a desktop or a laptop connected to a docking station.

a. I would like to suspend the machine at night and continue working in the morning.
b. To be able to support three monitors. c. VM app to test stuff - virt network to test varied apps\code on different clients and servers. d. Libre Office to create docs and presentations. e. LTS.

Currently using a System 76 laptop w\ Pop OS and a docking station. The first laptop was warrantied to poor construction (keyboard and bezel weren't flush, they separated and you could see the motherboard...) and now the second one is having the same issue - let alone sporadically working with suspend or the docking station (will have to reconnect the docking station, most times rebooting).

I've distro hopped for years, so I would consider myself a beginner\intermediate user. I am more than willing to pay\donate for consistency, and right now that leans towards MS and Windows (sigh).

What are corporate users using? I think that is my standard, as I've worked at places that were primarily windows shops, And it is pretty easy to come in in the morning and resume from yesterday. "RH for workstations" ?

Thank you!!
