"Users protesting by leaving should weigh the broader social implications of staying versus exiting."

Hmmn, let me weigh up the broader social implications of . . . holocaust, world war, racial purification, hatred and divisiveness. Strangely, I think i can trust the gut on this one without having to do all the complex social cost benefit analysis.

Sweet!

I've never heard of a divan-potato so I'd guess the divanlayer is a fair bit less likely to be a tuber.

All your base are touched by us.

Thanks! I'll be using that from now on.

I'd expect it to work maybe 80% chance.

I feel ike I've had issues with grub doing that type of swap- I can't remember the specifics, maybe hd0,x became swapped with hd1,x Or maybe i did something daft like futz with the partitions.

(assuming mint does use grub) maybe be prepared with either a grub shell cheatsheet, or just a live usb to chroot from so you can reconfigure grub.

Or just try swapping the ports over.

Only other issues I've had is maybe going non-uefi to uefi, and with things like "secure boot". You can just trial and error the few combinations if you dont know.

Maybe note down any current mobo bios settings especially re: disks and boot.

edit - i fogot cpu microcode is vendor specific - you might need to swap that or at least remove the old microcode before swapping it could be irrelevant https://wiki.debian.org/Microcode

In my country if you get bottled gas supplied on contract, the cylinders usually remain the property of the supplier. They'd' take them back and recycle, or the vendor should take them and pass them back.
