I don't know about you, but I'm fucking exhausted trying to convince people to give up Microsoft for Linux. If the large companies I've worked for over the years had listened to me, they would've saved millions of dollars on unnecessary licensing fees and emergency IT visits.

Is Blockchain Next?
I think we can take it easy with spreading the blockchain gospel as well. Every government and corporation is embracing it now, so the average person is going to encounter it no matter what. For example, an old lady gets sick from some food she buys at Walmart. Ten other people get sick in the same area. After checking all of the relevant BLOCKCHAINS, the sick may only sue the local Walmart because the BLOCKCHAINS showed the other companies were not at fault. When they start to hear courts and Presidents saying it all the time, then they'll look at you and admit you were right all along about this Bitcoin shit.
