I dual boot between Windows 10 and Linux Mint, but mostly still use Windows for now.

From my experience, the tutorials on setting up the dual boots are usually done in virtual machines, or computers that already had linux on them. This is important to note because the setup processes might be different with slightly different steps. I had to manually setup the Mint partition sizes, a scary process when you are new to it.

Make sure to install Windows first, and create a blank partition allocated for Linux with the windows partition tool. Windows will outright ignore and not see any Linux systems installed, but will recognize its own partitions it makes.

Gee, I wonder why, when Boeing is crashing and burning, literally and figuratively.

I whole heartily agree, and thank you for taking the time for writing that. Not enough people look into this, including me. Sometimes I stumble into articles or videos that touch on how messed up the financial world is. The biggest thing I hate is how everything runs on debt, and how that affects the inflation rate to always wanting be positive. It promotes buying now, as money loses value from inflation over time. On the flip side of that, negative inflation promotes saving money because it gains value over time. I wish the system was more balanced instead of always leaning to one side, because as they say, the line has to always go up, is not sustainable. I'm not an economist either, as you mention, just another dude in this rat race.

You have to be asleep to believe it, as George Carlin said.
