In working through the installation I was the least disappointed I’ve ever been with an OS. The result was something I truly liked. If I nail down every single problem it could be my all time favourite machine.

Arch is great, but it needs longer explanations considering the user needs to do a lot more. Sometimes you find them, but other times you find a snarky superuser with zero people skills.
It’s a shame they aren’t government standard, so I could take a local course to become a snarky superuser too.
Most of it involves everyday Linux usages, but some of it is specific to Arch and it breaks so hard. It’s not a great thing when you’re stupid busy and don’t have the headroom to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes all you get is vague theories on how a fix might occur. After that you’re playing shell games trying to debug your problems.
Definitely recommend for pro-Linux people that have a breakable laptop that can go on the backburner.
I paid for Lynda.com, and it could have easily taken in more business if YouTube wasn’t working so hard for Google ads. There are a lot of paid (and free) services that suffer because of YouTubes ad-money business model.
Netflix could use the extra business. There are plenty of services failing to thrive while YouTube exists. Peertube would be wide open if YouTube went the way of most of Google’s stable of apps. PeerTube is wide open even if YouTube doesn’t go away anyway.
People genuinely hate ads. It’s a high degree of enshitification. YouTube could divide into paid content and free content in a simple Freemium model.
Or, add third tier with ads, which any user can opt out of in the same way contributers can. I’d be happy to click subscribe on an ad free experience with less content available to me.
Or, add an option for a couple of free tier items per month, week, or day. Like Medium’s business model.
It’s not hard to stop sucking!
Putting people on autopilot. The MS way!
It’s a new management objective.
Imagine life without concern and high expectations your dreams will be profitable. No wonder money makes money.
The more of us that take the hit the fewer people just going along.
I caught a trespasser the other day that said it wasn’t him. Totally believed him too /s

Last I checked, a military coup is being invaded by your own military, and it’s not even over yet. Rebels are cast as horrible bush people that keep trying to gain a foothold.
But, that nation was a member of ASEAN. If ASEAN had put together a security force to restore the people to sovereignty I’m pretty sure the only country that would cry foul would be China.
The biggest problem being that no amount of diplomacy will ever matter. ASEAN believing diplomacy will work is either being an accomplice or a joke.
There’s nothing said here means anything but business as usual for an ongoing military onslaught in Myanmar.
ASEAN stands in the way of any regional condemnation that means anything actionable to the people of Myanmar. Diplomacy, fuck! What a joke! ASEAN is just a hegemony manager.
Did nothing at the ASEAN level though. The whole world waited for ASEAN to undo the coup, but apparently that’s not their mission. 50 million people suddenly oppressed by their own military, and ASEAN does nothing?
If ASEAN does nothing it’s unlikely the UN or anyone else will step in.
They didn’t seem to care much when they were the same ASEAN that did nothing to help the people of Myanmar! (Sorry, still butthurt about that).
For all the hype I barely notice anything new and improved. Tusky still kicks it to the curb/kerb.
The test is usually whether someone is defending the indefensible, or going to absurdity in misdirection.
Like defending some small irrelevant claim that has no bearing on the discussion.
I’m fairly sure I’m calling them hypocrites without defending atrocities. The UAE were kinda already on this shit list and don’t readily admit it, AFAIK. That Israel is on the list is a no brainer too.
Hypocrisy.
Same UAE that’s a major gun supplier in Africa? Some of these critical nations are weirdly hypocritical. There are plenty of children in the Horn of Africa and Yemen that want their lives back.
Fire up the Linux POSSE and it happens all at once!
A local hero was saving women from Windows by installing fresh Linux distros on their dated machines. I wanted this superpower.
