I think Chrome inevitably losing a lot of market share could be a pretty good result for the web.

It’s a bit of a conundrum, because if you cannot figure out how to force update the kernel on Ubuntu, then it’s likely rolling release will cause you endless pain, but that’s what you need for Blackwell right now. Maybe try Tumbleweed or even one of the Arch installers such as Endeavor OS.
Fedora licensing cripples the stock Silverblue offerings. Using an immutable without the drivers and codecs baked in is not great. Sure you can add these with ostree, but then why use an immutable …
I have embarrassing code and commented lines in mine, so not sharing. (using Awesome and qtile)
If someone has a problem my dots have the solution for, then I might copy paste edited segments.
They cheat to fuel their donate button. Meanwhile Debian maintainers do most of the work.
worst case you can install w10 once now and years from now you can just run a Windows live usb if needed
I don’t like MSI as a manufacturer, but compatibility is not a real concern if not muleheaded about it.
“so far” is not a meaningful timeframe, give it half a year…
Basically no one is using powershell on Linux. zsh is popular and i’m using fish.


This not yet scary, scary starts when malicious actors take over orphaned AUR packages…


I think salt and pepper grilling is way worse than just ala natural.
That’s incredible.
Imo whatever problem you had is probably way easier to solve than managing an Arch derivative medium term… Anyway I wish you best of luck.


There should be strong pushback. You need to be quite insane to let someone scan your face when accessing insert random fetish porn.


Bunsenlab Linux I suppose, but do know if it’s the single core atom version web browsing will be very slow and YT will only work in 240p after spending 10 minutes loading and you gotta use Chrome.
Mine has a Windows XP dualboot for retro gaming and Office 2007 flies on this thing. (Though it’s not very compatible with newer versions of office)
Retro gaming is the best use case including ps1 emulation. I’ve been thinking of putting native dos on it, because some dos games are lagging in dosbox. (like imperium galactica 1 and even Prehistoric 2…)


Bluefin/Aurora is the most sane option in that space, stock Silverblue offerings are lacking a few essentials.


Because Linux +firefox is like a fingerprinting wet dream, I may be the only one in my locale. (maybe not anymore, but yeah)
Also Librewolf by default reports Win+Firefox.


Statcounter considers me a Win user due to the Win user agent I’m using, this is not a rare behavior in the Linux space…
Probably not significantly less secure than Xorg itself, I wouldn’t mind using in your place. DE security is usually not a huge problem, if someone can exploit these vulnerabilities usually you are quite bonked.
Remember most of what happens on screen is xorg, the wm is a simply interacting with xorg and other parts of your DE are simple user level programs like the panel etc…
These days it’s mainly snap and how you can type apt install and the system will do snap install instead, for firefox for example.
I think for home archival use is btrfs is a terrible idea. I burnt myself with it so many times.
Yes it should be safe and resistant to unclean shutdowns, but my experience with reliability is not great.
