In the past, with similar issues, I’ve had good success with requesting the book on Zlib, especially newer books.

Ea-Nasir has got to be one of my favourite internet phenomena

God, I love the internet.
Whilst this only applies to a minority of people who use these services, if you’re disabled, having someone else stand in line for you is a godsend.
Finally, something that isn’t vetoed
Your instinct is right, because it does take a little bit of time to be familiar enough that it’s automatic, but it doesn’t need to be a big daunting thing - I first dabbled with Linux running in a virtual box. Then I dual booted for a while. Now I’m running just Linux. Dipping your toe in the water is good
I was doing something similar for a while, but I found I struggled with inertia enough that I kept doing non-gaming stuff on Windows. I switched to using Fedora as my main operating system, getting rid of Windows entirely, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how straightforward gaming has been. (Though as I understand it, it’s trickier for people with Nvidia GPUs)
I work in science and at university, I was noticing that increasingly often, the kinds of computational work I was doing worked better on Linux. Often, there’d be software that would ostensibly run in Linux and Windows, but the Windows documentation and community would be pretty sparse.
The more I learned, the clearer it became that switching over properly to Linux was the way to go. It just provides better infrastructure. As an example, an area of science I feel passionately about is FAIR data principles, a list of guidelines on how we can make scientific data more Findable, Accessible, Interactible and Reusable. In practice, for me, this means I’ve gotten very good at using containers, which I found much easier on Linux
I think the term is as much a comment on maturity as it is literal age.
I know, right? I didn’t expect to watch it through to the end, but that was mesmerising
I wish you well for whatever remains of recovering from the illness, it sounds like you’ve had a rough time.
