    My grandparents had a dog that looked just like her when I was a kid. Her name was Sophie but I couldn’t quite pronounce it at that age.

    I had met a chocolate lab before and she was shaped like one but her coat was white instead of brown.

    So to me she was a Soapy, the white chocolate lab

    Be careful that she’s not sensitive to the metal. A lot of metal items contain nickel or tin that can cause an allergy-like reaction called contact dermatitis if left in contact with the skin for a long time.

    Some people are more sensitive to it than others so maybe it will be fine, but I sure wouldn’t want a surprise in my underwear

    This reminds me of the time circa 1992 when my brothers convinced me to ride a scrap lawnmower chassis down the big hill near our house. They didn’t consider it important to actually attach the lawnchair so it just fell apart when it got up to speed.

    I’m still kind of mad about it lol










  • I am a longtime fan of Debian Stable, for exactly that reason. I installed the XFCE version using the custom installer about 8 years ago and have had very few issues.

    Initially my GPU wasn’t well supported so I had to use the installer from Nvidia, forcing me to manually reinstall the driver after every kernel update. That issue has been fixed in recent years so now I can just use the driver from the Debian repos.

    I installed the unattended-updates package about 2 years ago and it has been smooth sailing since
