AC Unit Has Arrived

Just received my new Pioneer REC rooftop inverter rooftop AC unit for my Pro Master 2500 conversion. Was going to install an actual mini split, but I found this one, which is basically a mini split all in one. It's 115v and drops into a standard 14x14 hole and has a heat pump. Had no idea pioneer made this, as they are a leader in mini split brands. Now comes the fun part this weekend, getting it on the roof of my high roof van, lol. Anyone use this particular one let me know. I posted the link to it on the pioneer website if you are interested.

Anyone ever use Crow Translate as alternative to Google translate ? Looks like a solid pick, but not 100% sure.

Well I'm switching gears on my floors in my 2020 Ram ProMaster 2500 159wb high roof build. I didn't go the traditional route with vinyl plank floors, as I've read and scene people complain about weather changes warping them and/or looking bad after a while. So I tried a couple traffic master peel and stick vinyl squares. Well they don't seem to completely stick. So I think I'm just going with Gilden Floor and Porch Paint and seal it with Olympic sealant. Simple, no heat/cold issues, throw down a nice small mat/rug and call it a day. Get tired of the color, repaint. Anyone out there use paint and sealant over the traditional planks?

As someone who recently has degoogled their life, ditched microslop for Linux, said goodbye to all these greedy data pirates, lol. I unknowingly found out that github is owned by Microsoft. As strickly as user, of some linux apps that only use Github, am I being overly paranoid, or should I be concerned about microslop getting there grubby paws somehow, someway entrinched into these app developers like google is trying to do with these new rules coming down in September. Thoughts?

Hi, I've recently degoogled and ditched Windows for Linux, and I am going with Void based on it's fit with my style and vibe. I tried initially Pop OS and Mint, but pop was very buggy and Mint kernel was too old for my newer MSI 870 Tomahawk motherboard network drivers. But anytime I mention void on other subreddits, it's seems to drive out the fanboys trying to push me to Fedora and Kubuntu, and KDE, all while preaching about how hard VOID is and a newbie shouldn't use it, lolol. It's like they can't read instructions, research things on their own, or take the time enjoy learning something new. Well just an observation and any tips or tricks for a new VOID user would be much appreciated.
