I agree, one friend installed Debian because he saw that everyone recommended it, but he couldn’t understand how to make VirtualBox work, even less when I explained the reason to him. He ended up returning to Windows because of more issues and he didn’t like troubleshooting as much as I do lol
I’d say Linux Mint is pretty good too, Debian alone may be harder for new people who wants a system that just works out of the box.
You can’t prevent it without regulations. Companies won’t care while gaining money from it unless they’re obligated to, and even then, some won’t comply either.
BTW, that mentality of “other countries vs mine” is absurd. War crimes shouldn’t be committed by a country just because the other commits them; others bad ≠ I good.
LLMs can’t and should NOT replace a human, at least not yet (they’re not even that good either). If we can’t have guaranteed basic needs such as housing, food and healthcare or a BUI, then they should not keep leaving people without jobs because no one will be able to afford anything.
I use some GNOME apps and they work fine. KDE has good support for GTK theming ;)
Does anybody know if there will be more providers or the option to add your own for the Weather widget/app?
I used to “virtual distro hop” because I tried a lot of distros in VMs before dualbooting. I installed Tumbleweed and haven’t changed ever since.
I don’t regret keeping my distro, I’ve been curious, of course, but I think i already have it all:
I sometimes try distros in VMs, but with that and Distrobox I think I already have everything I could need to learn and try them in case I need to work with them in the future :)
I think that the main problem is that companies keep getting revenue even if actors don’t. Book writers don’t stop earning money just because they wrote their book 5 years ago, and yes, they don’t win money for reselling, but companies like Amazon and their editorials will keep earning money because of their work, so why shouldn’t the writers earn money?
If your work isnt being streamed or sold, well, you won’t see much. But still, you signed a contract, like the old perpetual pensions.
I’d say updated documentation, there are some articles in their wiki/documentation that don’t consider the default configuration for openSUSE, but an old one I think.
