You have all right to, that photo is stunning!

It’s all about familiarity. People feel comfortable with Windows because they always used it and it has all the programs they always used. Most people just want to get their shit done and don’t care about operating systems at all.

DeWalt? I thought they did ladders and power tools

I have Nextcloud running on a Pi4 and it runs like a charm. It has a lot of RAM and processing power to spare, actually. The good thing about arm mini computers is the exceptionally low power draw. You can’t achieve that with some old x86 PC.

Spelling is still a hot mess in US English, but it’s substantially better than British.

Generative AI is not deterministic. The same input doesn’t necessarily mean the same output every time.

I like GIMP :)

I thought the B was for the British?

They usually do if they don’t use kernel level anti cheat. But it’s a bit more complicated than Steam. There are guides online. It’s manageable but it’s not “click play and you’re done” like steam

For most users it probably just comes down to what is installed on their machine when they buy it. People generally don’t think about operating systems a whole lot.

Fairphone 5 can force slow charging via settings. I use it all the time because I usually charge over night and it helps preserve battery life.

I love KdenLive!

I love that feature so much. I have played through at least 20 backlog single player games with my deck. Amazing games that I could never finish before because it’s apparently too much to ask for my brain.

It’s so much more convenient to play locally though. Just press the button and you’re back where you left. No need to boot up the PC, start the game, establish the connection.

I have been pretty much exclusively using Bluetooth headsets for almost ten years and got my first phone without a jack this year. Sometimes you want to plug into someone’s car or home stereo and can’t, that’s annoying. But other aspects are far more important in my buying decision.

Same. I’m sure the rest is not bad but I can’t get into it. Ten is absolute perfection.

Explain what you mean by bloat please

There is also Mint Debian if you want Mint. But honestly, distro doesn’t matter at all to most users. Pick any desktop environment that looks nice to you and go for it.
