I like Linux Mint a lot. It was the single most important factor which allowed me to completely migrate away from Windows over 5 years ago, without any regrets and without ever having to go back. As such, I will always regard it fondly.
That said, I run Linux Mint Una 20.3, on all my computers, rather than Vera. Up until 20.3 upgrading was painless and easy. Vera took that away. During several tests of upgrading from Una to Vera so many things I had installed and running perfectly were marked as needing to be removed during the upgrade that I stopped the process and stuck with Una. Vera may have some nice features but if the process of upgrading to Vera gets rid of many of the things I actually use and have functioning well in Una then I doubt there will be further version upgrades in my foreseeable future, which I find disappointing.
I have had around 16 or 17 motorcycles since I started riding in 1983. I started with an ancient Kawasaki enduro I bought for $75 and then while I was in the USAF I bought a Honda Interceptor 700 brand new in Illinois in 1985, no license yet, and rode it from Illinois to Texas when I changed bases one winter, making my first real "street" ride a 2 1/2 day thousand mile journey through snow, mountains, and all sorts of nasty weather. Ah to be that young and stupid again!
From there I had a few bikes but settled with a Yamaha XS650, which I kitted out with a full Windjammer and hard cases and rode to work daily in Hawaii. When I moved again to Texas I shipped it in a crate to LA, flew over when it arrived, built it from the crate in the shipyard and rode it from LA to Houston across the Mojave desert. For 10 years I never had a car, sticking with bikes.
When I moved in 1996 to the very rural area in which I now live, 8 miles from the closest small town, I gave up bikes for several years. Then I got the bug again and bought a used Suzuki Katana.
This quickly let me know that I was aging and I did not like to have my weight on my wrists while hunched over in a jockey position.
So I bought a Honda V45 Magna and turned it into the Puppy Cycle, and since I now worked in that small town 8 miles from home it became something I rode to work often, splitting the time I drove in a car and rode on a bike about evenly.
A couple of years later I had the itch for something different so I picked up a Buell Blast, which I kept for a year.
My current bike is a Harley Davidson Sportster 1200 Custom, to which I have added a windshield, hard cases, sissy bar with luggage rack, etc. This bike taught me I don't particularly like forward controls, but it is still fun to ride. Unfortunately my aged body tells me more and more that "nope!" today we are taking the car with AC to work in the 100F heat so I don't ride it as often as I should or would like to.
Here's a throwback to what I was riding 31 years ago, another 1200 Sportster
