Yeah, weird some asshole thought everyone would be in cars in a DRIVE THROUGH ATM lane.

I agree with your final sentence, but this scenario is not one of those times.

I don't understand how drive up atms are entitled. It is convenient, not necessarily lazy. Even granting it's entitled and lazy, drive up atms are far from "peak lazy-entitled human", see Uber, door dash, amazon, etc.

So, be an asshole? What's it like being the only person on the planet?

Totally agree. Mitigating circumstances, absolutely. Self defense, nope. There should be some punishment. What that should be, I do not know.

Most 17 year olds charge with murder, or some variation of killing someone, aren't charged as minors. That's not taking a position on this specific case, it's just a fact.

I appreciate the reply, I'll have to try that. I ran some other fix commands earlier but haven't tested with a reboot yet. If the pc tries to boot to windows (without Grub), I literally have to power off the psu until the cmos clears, then turn back on in order to get to the boot menu. Win 10 once had a uefi setting console, but it's no more, apparently. If my earlier commands or your fix doesn't work, bye windows.

Edit: neither worked. Efibbootmgr WILL move Mint up in the boot order but windows always stays on top. Figures. I thought about deleting the windows boot Mgr entry, but I'm not sure what that would do. Making the winbootmgr inactive fails. Idk.

Edit2: I decided fuck it; deleted the windows entry in efibbootmgr. Seems to have fixed it. I can still boot to windows if I choose but the select OS option comes up by default now. Yay. It appears winbootmgr has reinserted itself in efibootmgr but as a lower priority than Mint. Oddly, I'm still getting a "Grubx64.efi not found" message for half a second before the OS select comes up. I can live with that unless it's a sign of problems to come?

The only issue I have now is that Grub is not loading to select Mint or Windows, so the compter loads Windows by defailt. I have to go into the BIOS boot menu in order to load Mint anytime the computer restarts. Not the end of the world, but annoying. I tried a few 'fixes' from the forums, with no change. Once I'm into Mint, everything I need is working as intended. I may just remove Windows entirely if it bothers me more.

This post inspired me to reinstall Mint finally, after years of Windows frustration. I've played around with Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora over the years, but I'm ready for Mint as my daily. I still have dual boot with Windows (for now) and am still working out Grub bugs, but otherwise, it's going great so far!

This is my fear. I've only had the house 2 years, exclusively rented before. I'm 'making it' right now, but a few years down, who knows. Sorry for you, hope it comes out okay.

Did any of you read and understand the article?
