  • How about you actually research the things you’re talking about? The solar cycle does affect Earth’s climate, but current scientific consensus says that its impact is marginal compared to the greenhouse effect, which has had 270 times a greater effect on climate change compared to the effect from the solar cycle source. It isn’t possible for the Earth’s orbit or solar activity to have had this much of an impact over such a short period of time.

    As for mRNA vaccines, how are they not considered vaccines? Sure, they’re different from the traditional vaccines where they inject dead or very weak cells. What mRNA vaccines do is they inject the mRNA of a part of the pathogen (like a spike protein), along with sugar to encourage your cells to take it inside, then have the ribosomes print out that part of the pathogen inside your own cells. If you understood anything about the immune system, you’d know this is genius, because to the immune system this looks like a genuine infection, while there is zero actual risk of infection because there aren’t any actual pathogens in the vaccine. So the end effect is the same (or better!) than traditional vaccines, the immune system gains immunity, and the risk of side effects are lower because you can’t accidentally get infected in the process.







  • I’m not a GNU/Linux expert, I’ve only used it on a server for a short time, but I have some things to share.

    Remember: search engines are your best friend! Obviously it would be better for someone to recommend a program for your specific use case, but you can find things like notepadqq (Notepad++) or xone (Drivers for your Xbox One controllers) with just one search.

    About GNU/Linux distributions: each of them provide a different set of software, including package manager, desktop environment, file system, etc. You can basically ignore the differences between distros if you use distrobox, which will let you install software regardless of your distro. Other differences will mainly be in the actual software they distribute (so you may need to use sudo apt rather than pacman or whatever.

    The “flavours” of distros can mean different things, often though they just have a different desktop environment so it runs kinda different, or it is designed for a different use case.

    For your use case, Pop!_OS has an ISO that includes Nvidia drivers, and Linux Mint also lets you install the proprietary drivers. Both are fairly common in the GNU/Linux space (especially with beginners) so you can get tons of support with those.
