I've tried Linux in multiple flavors, and still not been able to get it to do more than the very basics for me. I'd like to tell Mr. Gates to blow it out his kazoo, or whatever, but I've got too much time and money invested in Windows and MSdos. I have slightly less on my mind now that I'm retired, and may have a chance to learn some other OS, but for the moment I'm waiting for a Z80 based CP/M computer to arrive from the UK. I'm going to see what I can do with that first. It's been a long time. Being a bit stubborn about such things has let me see some really cool stuff over the years. And waste quite a bit of time, too, I admit. ;) I absolutely hate Apple, but they do a lot of graphics stuff, and Apple cameras and phones are everywhere. This heic format is an Apple format, and I'm probably going to need to be able to see it in the future. And it was worth seeing. I probably won't build mine exactly like Pauls table, but I'm pretty sure I will build something inspired by it.?

I have a simpler method, if Linux won't view it
without installing something, I don't look at it.? More things to
see than I have time for so I skip videos (or skip to the last 30
seconds) and skip anything that won't display or requires me to
sign up or anything.? FB and Twitter are pretty much automatically
skipped.
