This is pretty much the best answer, Debian with flatpak is your best option as it will be the most familiar and the safest bet.

Another alternative is to go the Arch route, which comes with its own headaches.

I don’t think you should be afraid of asking for help, the ones that will offer help are usually going to be very patient.

I’m with you on this, I used to avoid using apple products at all costs due to the way they are so anti consumer and lock you in heavily to their ecosystem.

But in terms of security and privacy they aren’t even playing on the same level. Android will never be as privacy or security focused as apple due to the way google runs its business so long term a Linux mobile operating system would be the dream.

Until then I stick with what I can use which is the apple products for now.

Overall a solid episode, a little different but ultimate felt very core Star Trek TOS with strange alien life and coming to a resolution.

Paul Wesley continues to impress me in the role of James T Kirk but his character did not need to be in this episode, they need to be careful with how they use him going forward.

in recent years I'd say Dizzie Rascal.

In my entire lifetime that award goes to Mandela

I haven’t seen all of them in person, but the other day someone showed me the StarLite which is their budget laptop and honestly it really surprised me. The only thing with similar build quality I’ve seen at such a low price was the google pixel book go which can be had used absurdly cheap.

I think they’re the company I’d use to buy Linux laptops if I used one daily, these days I use a MacBook Air m2 simply because the battery life beats all and for how I work that’s what I need most.

If you're genuinely looking for Linux Laptops I'd take a look at https://starlabs.systems/pages/starfighter

There's also https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/index.php

The price to pay for myself to move is way too high, I use 3 chrome profiles daily. 1 as my personal gmail and 2 work email profiles and trying to manage that in Firefox is just not worth it.

A lot of businesses use the google services and when you’re locked into using them through work there’s absolutely no reason to not just do everything in chrome with profiles.

There’s also the fact that Firefox sync is absolutely shit compared to the google sync features and while I understand why from a user perspective it’s a massive loss of functionality.

Now you're making me nostalgic for Myspace

Definitely has to be Megadeth without a question. Imagine them with an actual singer and they’d be so insane.

Dream theater is second but only because labrie has had his voice deteriorate so much over the years. His voice on every album up to octavarium was amazing.

Maybe but I can only go with my own anecdotal experience and It tends to be the younger audience more attracted to them.

Of course, I fully admit I may be completely wrong.

Yeah Disney+ legitimately made me mad also. Fuck the streaming services.

I think they use the tablet location info to block you.
