must be all over the map. Long ago, in Atlanta, I heard the hourly wage in one county was fairly high, so was shocked by how low it was where I am now.

help people install Linux and set it up - show them how to use it. I’ve considered doing the same. I’d do the first ten installs and lessons for free just to get experience and referrals. I suppose you could buy good laptops cheaply online, load them up, make videos on YT, removedute, Odysee, etc. on how the system YOU set up works. Most of that has very little upfront costs. Are you being replaced by overseas tech support and/or cheap local imported labor?

I am not homeless, but rent a room in a shared house. I prefer ethernet connections, but my landlord wouldn’t allow it and even removed the ethernet wall plug from an empty bedroom where I used it for 10 minutes to set up a raspberry pi. It wasn’t you, but the ethernet requirement.

What must’ve been a broken blood vessel or something that caused pain and swelling near the vagina…how, you say? Sitting cross-legged on my own bony heel and sometimes to fast and too hard so that the heel bone damaged something. It hurt so sit down for a week. It healed completely within 3 weeks, but, boy, was I scared to have to go to the doctor to have it looked at or worked on.
