Play an MP3 on Audacious and it's just as good as Winamp.  Write a
letter with LibreOffice, although admittedly it's just as great on
Winblows too.  You give up nothing of real value by using Linux.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
