Possible to use Linux for Wi-Fi drivers on Windows?
Sorry if this is slightly off topic, I searched for communities about tech support on here and couldn’t find anything that wasn’t dead in the water.

Never buy .xyz

Could you drink distilled water with a mineral pill

But what if you had a pill with all the minerals usually dissolved in water and washed it down with a nice big glass of distilled water? Would it be more or less the same as drinking tap water? Or would you need more time to dissolve the minerals?...
Do you have some kind of subconscious awareness of interests you already have or know you eventually will take deep dives into at some point in life?
