Economy 2.0 is next week I think (hope!) - so this is just vanilla breakage.
The obvious recommendation is Gentoo stage1 tarball running in Windows Linux Subsystem.
(on a serious note: whatever you’re running on your daily driver)
So, is this the type of SLAM you’d typically see in a moshpit? Or are we talking about wrestling slams?
Manor Lords all the way. There’s a big Cities Skylines II patch coming out this week (I hope). I might fire it up and check it out. It’s getting close to “release quality” after pretty crappy release.
What else am I missing?
Large scale manufacturers pre-installing Linux? Readily available multi-language support for home users? Coherent UI regardless of computer and distro underneath. Billions on lobbying money spent on politicians for favorable policy crafting? Billions spent on marketing campaigns to actually sell the idea to the masses who simply don’t care any of your points (or any technical reasons, privacy or anything else that might be top of mind of the current Linux userbase).
I’d say Linux has a good chance of capturing 5-6% of the market in the coming years if lucky (I believe we’re somewhere around 4% at the moment), unless one of the big tech monopolies decides to start throwing money into it (Like Google did with Android)
The only AI function I could see myself using is one that would summarize 15 minute youtube videos into coherent readable text in blog format. That would be nice. Especially when they’re posted like this, just links without much context.
So your requirement with cellular calling (eSIM) is already fairly restrictive and depends on which market we’re talking about. Where I live (.se) you get to choose between Apple and Samsung and since Apple was out of the question, you’re stuck with Samsung.
Not entirely sure if your second requirement with long battery life can be fulfilled. You’ll be charging the watch every day, probably more often if you take calls on it.
There’s some rumors that Garmin Forerunner/epix will get eSIM support, but that will be also carrier dependent.
These wearables are pretty complicated high end devices, I wouldn’t really give them to elderly parents who stuggle using a normal mobile.
I think it might be better to look into other tyoe of devices like pager systems from caregivers, if you’re worried about health issues.
I thought it was funny as well. Sometimes FOSS communities are so very uptight, we should relax a bit.
Yeah, well just go ahead and see if it works for you now. I doubt much has changed, but some bits are probably more polished these days.
Most distros support some kind of LiveCD, so you can try it out without having to reinstall your machine, it’s painless and quick to evaluate before you take the plunge.

A quick search reveals this. Might be helpful. https://davejansen.com/asus-zenbook-duo-and-fedora-linux/
Average Bethesda experience I guess
Ente Photos - Google Photos replacement with encryption and privacy
Ente Auth - Good multiplatform authenticator.
^^ These are paid for service (you get both with same sub), but extremely good.
AntennaPod - Podcatcher

Someone being enraged about snap on behalf of Windows users was certainly a take I didn’t know I needed.
I don’t and the energy consumption of public AI services is a stopper for “testing and playing around”. I think I’ll just wait until it takes over the world as advertised.
I’ve configured Firefox on their Linux laptop not to keep any cookies after the browser is closed. I know this isn’t a Linux/Firefox issue
It’s you issue.
Block third-party cookies, but allow cookies from the site itself. I’m not sure why you’d filter those out in the first place?
But if it was reality
“In a future, post-apocalyptic Los Angeles brought about by nuclear decimation, citizens must live in underground bunkers to protect themselves from radiation, mutants and bandits.”
And you picked a girl punching a guy the exact moment to suspend your belief at? Damn dude.
Gamers are so fucking weird. Really enjoyed the show. Hope they make 2nd season.
It’s spez so of course they’re going to go for NSFW subs. Pretty sure that’ll just cause people to move to Onlyfans and other, already NSFW platforms.
Can’t really see anyone paying for sub access apart from porn.
