Today at the grocery store a sweet older lady approached me and asked if I knew anything about computers. I said yes I do, and she produced a mouse saying that her son set up Linux mint for her and she was wondering if the mouse was compatible. It needed kernel version 2.6 or newer so I said that the mouse should work, guessing mint itself was probably newer than that kernel. Happy with my answer, we chatted a little, then she thanked me and left.

It was a nice experience, so I thought I should share!

      There’s been a rash of these celebrity Milky Way encounters over the last few years… just check the internet.

        Lol, the Internet really is the land where anything happens

        celebrity Milky Way encounters

        I think I’m totally out of the loop on that, what does the Milky Way have to with it?

        Edit: I may have dementia
