  • Hispanic here, I grew up using “gringo” specifically for people from the U.S. despite skin tone.

    Canadians are “Canadiense”, English are “Ingles” but United States? “Estadounidense”? It’s sort of like saying “United Statian” but arguably more “correct/proper”

    Gringo is just much faster/easier to say.

    That being said this can vary a little from one Latin-American country to another.


  • My debian machines usually only have their uptime interrupted by power outages or the like. They’re not my daily drivers, but very stable and reliable.

    I have Linux mint on my “daily driver” (used for work and gaming) desktop and I’m also very pleased with it - most updates can be installed without rebooting and it’s over-all a pretty trouble-free experience!

    Hope this helps!
