Gen 2 is my favorite Gen, and I'm long off the Pokémon train, with Black + White as the last titles I engaged with.
I loved Heart Gold and Soul Silver. They feel like the polished, finished versions of gen 2. Most of the gen 3/4 pokemon aren't really available until later on in the game, so it will probably feel very comfortable and familiar to you. At one point, I found a hack of HG/SS that upped the difficulty by making the AI stronger and smarter in ways that still felt natural to the game--e.g. gym leaders had a full team and used more healing items, sometimes x-items. It also added in ways to catch all the Pokémon to max the dex, which is really what I cared most about.
Honestly, the newer 3d games with hundreds more Pokémon and new battle/catching/evolution mechanics just don't look or feel like Pokémon to me, so I haven't tried them.
Very quick:
Müsli or oatmeal, overnight optional;
Fruit and/or nuts;
Toast/bagel with peanut butter, jam, or margarine;
Less quick:
Tofu scramble;
Tofu "egg":
Mung bean "egg" (good for omelets or egg sandwiches):
Crêpes, pancakes, or waffles made with vegan batter;
French toast (either with the mung bean "egg" as batter or a vegan batter);
Home fries / hash browns
I'm not one for meat substitutes, but there are plenty of vegan breakfast sausages on the market if thats up your alley
I know you just described your bean prep, but just to inform anyone reading who might buy beans from the shop: canned refried beans often contain lard in my experience
You forgot the part where the relatives don't want to help out or even spend time with your kids, then chastise you for having children even though they were the ones who pressured you into having kids in the first place
Some of these companies hire for the holiday rush. I wonder if they plan to work skeleton crews to the bone, or if this is just a tactic to hire a now-larger pool of more desperate workers at lower rates for seasonal employment.
Breath exercises, like box breathing. Count in your head to help quiet your thoughts. I like to couple this with yoga poses. You can start simple, with e.g. the half lotus pose.
The only way to learn is to give it a try. There was a time when you didn't know how to use Windows or MacOS and had to look things up for those--e.g. where certain files are stored. Like you said, boot from USB and mess around with it. It's the same point-and-click, drag-and-drop type of setup as Windows and Mac. I use Ubuntu and don't really have any more problems than I did with Windows. I also hear Mint and PopOS get recommended, but I haven't ever messed around with them.
(Before you tell me the error messages are not that bad: the following sentence appears in this thread, of which I know none of the words and I do not ever want to:)
The Debian developers have also criticized Linux Mint for mixing Ubuntu software packages with Debian packages, creating "Frankendebian".
"The Apple developers have also criticized Microsoft for mixing iOS apps with Windows apps, creating FrankenOS." They're just names of operating systems. You don't really need specialized knowledge. Most applications you probably need are a one-click install in an app store.
You might have to Google "where is x setting", "where is x folder", but you only know that for your current OS because you've been using it for awhile.
Where do you live that you need to retake a driving exam to maintain your licence? I swear, the drivers near me don't even know how to stay in one lane.
Unfortunately LLM policies are often determined on a class-by-class basis. I have met lots of educators and education administrators across k-12 and university who are pro-LLM usage. They typically don't understand how it works, and/or believe it currently can do better than it can.
I have had undergrad students who use chatgpt without question, thinking it's totally fine (despite my syllabus policy), and k-12 students who won't touch it with a 10-ft pole before I cautioned them against it. Lots of individual variation and credulity.
There was a medieval "etymologist" who published a list of takes like this unironically for Latin. "'Nox' (night) comes from 'nocere' (harm) because it harms our eyes"
