cURL flags I use the most

Context

I always see commands like curl -LsS https://www.example.com over the internet, I never remember what does each flag do, and man curl is overwhelming.

This is the list of the flags I use the most.

Installing Windows 10 to an external drive without a Windows host

The long story

We were talking at the office about having a LAN Party and playing some old school games like Age of Empires and Starcraft. The issue is that I have Linux installed. I didn't want to ruin everyone else's fun by having random crashes, out-of-sync errors and similar stuff using Wine, and I didn't want to do the dual boot dance, so I figured out that the best option was to install Windows to an external drive.
