It's been a hard week
Today I learned how to run applications designed for Microsoft Windows on my Linux PC. Needless to say I was really geeking out on that ability. Allow me to explain the need for emulating a Windows operating system on a Linux computer. Almost every Linux user has made the change from Windows out of the need for better security than Windows has, today it's even more so with the buggy updates and less than appt software Microsoft is putting out. Some Linux users however have their favorite Windows based (but not Microsoft created) software. Enter Windows OS emulators on Linux designed to let you use the software you are used to in an OS you can trust.
It looks like my internet issue has been fixed by Cox after almost a week of spotty connectivity and sudden drop outs and limited bit rates. Wow what a frustrating week for someone who just about lives on the net.
My sister caught Covid-19 and developed Covid pneumonia this week and is bouncing off the walls in frustration at being quarantined. Now she is in financial straits because her husband also had to take time off from work to take care of their child. My sister is getting better (she says) but the financial setback is going to be hard to bounce back from. When will we ever get this damn virus under control and come together as a nation and get behind the science that works.
