Only progress I made is switching to iOS from Android

"progress"

Setting number to -1 might cause you to wait a while.

System76, Tuxedo, Juno come to mind. Even Dell has a Linux range I think.

You don't need to troubleshoot Linux any more than Windows these days. Especially if you get your machine from a Linux-friendly supplier.

I would block the boulder's path by jamming Trigger's Broom in the tracks.

Those bananas in the bottom pic definitely look edible to me. They taste better slightly overripe too.

I am exponentially more experienced at swimming than the average person.

I'm actually a pretty average swimmer, so in this case the exponent is zero.

You disagree because you don't understand how number bases work.

It's not fundamentally easier to do calculations in base 10. It's only easier for us because that's what we learn as children.

If our number system was based on a superior base, like dozenal or senary, we would be able to do calculations on that base easily and would find working in tens awkward.

Base 6 however is perfect for 2 hands with 5 fingers each. You can easily represent the six possible digits 0 1 2 3 4 5 on each hand, and can therefore comfortably count to 55 (decimal 35) with two hands, using our familiar place-value numeral system.

Mind you, regarding the sun being green, it's worth noting this observation from https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien%27s_displacement_law

The effective temperature of the Sun is 5778 Kelvin. Using Wien's law, one finds a peak emission per nanometer (of wavelength) at a wavelength of about 500 nm, in the green portion of the spectrum near the peak sensitivity of the human eye.
