Depends on the humidity.

28C with little humidity is a pleasant day, however 28C with 100% makes me want to die.

C'mon Sony, do us a solid and just release it on PC already.

Thanks for the ideas. Will the update script still need sudo to run, or can it be done at an unprivileged user level?

Thanks, I will put Mint on a USB, along side some others as well. I have fond memories of Mint, as it was my first distro.

Thanks, and good idea on letting them check out the different DE's. Does Debian have multiple DE's ready to go, or do you need to install each one individually?

I was thinking Fedora as I use it personally on all my computers and really like it, but I thought Gnome would be too much of a drastic change for them since they are coming from Windows. Might just put it on a USB just in case, and let them test out a couple DE's before committing to anything.

 

Hello there. Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a Linux distro for grandparents? They are over 70 years old, with an old HP desktop and laptop running Windows 10. All they need is a Web browser, so no need for special software or wine to run Windows programs. Would preferably like something that is low maintenance so I don't have to be constant tech support for them (apart from the initial install and setup). Thanks for any suggestions.

RIP Infinity, the only thing that made reddit tolerable on mobile.

Still shitty, but at this point, anyone buying Blu-Rays and DVDs should chuck that stuff on Plex/Jellyfin and be done with it.

Me:

  • Gets a bill for my tax return.
  • Pays said bill.
  • 3 months later; government refunds me the interest from that bill.

Am I winning?

micro is one of the first things I install on a new distro. I can't live without it now.

Out already on Crunchyroll. It's one big episode that goes for over an hour. It's the last one.
