Cook testified in court Wednesday, saying he was playing a Google Translate prank on Colie where he would play “goofy woods.” Colie’s defense lawyer later said Cook was playing the phrase “hey dipsh**, stop thinking about my sparkle.”

Colie said despite backing away, yelling “stop” several times, threatening to call police and pushing the phone back, Cook refused to answer him and kept moving forward.
“In my mind, I registered that he was a threat to me, and he was going to harm me,” Colie told the jury. “I saw his left hand down in his left pocket. I didn’t know if he was concealing a weapon. For the sake of my safety, I took out the gun from my right pocket and I shot him in the stomach. At that time, I was fearful that my life was in danger.”
The last version of windows I could tolerate was Win 7. I could find a webpage something like “how to unbloat Win 7” after a fresh install and happily use it.
Linux was a hobby I learned slowly but gaming hold me back and best I could do was dual boot.
I hated everything about Win 8. Win 10 was too demanding hardware-wise. So when Steam bridged the gaming gap, Linux as the only OS was a no-brainer.
I’m interested in the philosophy of open source and I use open source when there is a viable option. But at the end of the day, I prioritize convenience and practicality and Steam is convenient.
