It's fucked when you're looking in from the outside. From the inside, they're all convinced that they're correct about everything and that Trump is their Messiah. It's a cult.

My parents adopted a quirky cat that seems to have had some past trauma. She's finally getting more friendly and less skiddish - AFTER FOUR YEARS.
Sometimes it's just love and time that helps them get over past trauma.
Murican here. Usually you can ask for a child's portion. It's an option in some places. However, it can also be prefaced as 'only for ages 12 and under'. Depends on the place as to whether or not they care if you don't meet their criteria. Sometimes they'll charge you for an adult small. If that's the case, just get an adult small portion and eat half. Either toss the rest or share it with a friend.
It's definitely possible to convert in both directions. I've never done it though. The technical hurdles made it unpalatable. My main method of moving back and forth was to keep my personal data on a separate disk from the OS disk. That way I could always take my data with me when I changed OSes or VMs.
I think it's far less invasive to setup a Linux VM that can be thrown away vs. setting up dual booting.
With Hyper-V or Virtualbox the OP can have a Linux distribution installed and booting very quickly without fear of disrupting his current Windows installation.
Not OP, but possibly the Kent State massacre was the watershed event that shifted US public opinion about the war.
16+ years. Learned about it from Joel Spolsky's blog.
I pretty much agree 100% with your characterization of the decline and your overall experience.
I also hadn't realized how dysfunctional Reddit had become or how much I'd tried to adapt to that dysfunction.
Yeah, you're right. I did leave that part out. Thanks for pointing that out. sigh
