Well I just dumped windows and MS office. For machine vision I'm only dabbling with openCV, so that's already open source. The switch to libre office has been pretty nice though

Cool thanks, I'll stick with it! At least until I'm familiar and want to try something new

No worries, it's all part of the experience

Hmm, okay. Yeah I was trying to set up an environment to dabble with machine vision and had trouble finding good instructions or guidance for programming env setup. I think in college we used something-Unix but it's been so long I don't really have a frame of reference anymore. So I'm looking for a low-overhead daily driver that's also relatively common or amenable to maker communities

If that makes sense.

Damnit I just switched to Ubuntu. That explains why I kept getting lost. What about Debian?

I'm convinced they'll do it to themselves, especially as more books are made with AI, more articles, more reddit bots, etc. Their tool will poison its own well.
