I've dabbled in Linux for decades, but fully switched to Linux as my daily driver about 5 years ago. I still have a Windows partition set up for dual boot, but only boot into it once every couple months now to run very specific software. I can honestly say I miss nothing about Windows. Linux has matured leaps and bounds even in the past 5 years. Gaming, productivity, programming, hobby. It can do it all. I will admit there is still a technical barrier to entry. You will need to get used to the command line and searching the web frequently for how to do something. But if you have those skills I don't think it's a contest anymore. Linux is the better OS.
Saio et al. created a model that simulated Betelgeuse’s pulsations and say it provides unique insight into the star’s internal status. The only way for Betelgeuse to pulsate in this way is if it is at the very end of its carbon burning period. That means the collapse of this star’s core and the accompanying supernova is...
This would be a seriously once in a lifetime experience that I hope I live long enough to see. And after the initial fireworks it will form a supernova remnant that will be visible for hundreds of thousands of of years.
