    My laptop has been discontinued by the manufacture for a couple years now and with support for Windows 10 ending, I wanted to increase the lifespan of my device so I looked into Linux. The lack of ads, bloat, and spyware are also major selling point to me.

    I think is more of the loading power of my computer, sometimes there’s a bit of a delay when I open an application or try to close it, opening some setting will have more loading time than others. Although now that i think about it, I most likely had this problem with Windows, so its probably a hardware thing. My laptop is “old” by today’s standards (or at least, that’s what HP thinks lol). I have an HP Pavillion x360 2017 model. It has 8GB Ram, Intel Core i3 7th Gen processer, Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 620 and a 1TB SSD.

    My late cat Princess would beg me to open the cage door everytime I took it out for her annual checkups the vet. She would relentlessly beg and meow, and I’d eventually open the door and she would walk right in. Hell, you could close the door and as long as there were toys and treats she wouldn’t complain. But, the second that cage was lifted up and carried into the car, she would realize that it wasn’t just some magic box with food and try to get out. As she moved around in the cage, one of her cat toys would roll and she’d calm down before her realization hit again.

    She was truly the epitome of an orange cat…
