Besides, Plasma can look like anything else anyway, so why switch?

7·7 days agoWait, would I have to actually do anything?
If it’s your os drive that dies, nothing important has been lost except for a few minutes of work. You can boot from a variety of media (cd, usb…) for recovery, or drive replacement. Worst case, you’ll have to reinstall a few things in the following days.
It’s also why it’s not a bad idea to separate the various aspects of the system on distinct drives.
The OS is the least important part of your computer.

I suppose it’s so you can take them home and cook them the way you like them.
No, it’s still touché.
Up to date and stable. Best of both worlds.
I’ve run OpenSuSE and then Tumbleweed for a while (as in years, now) on a variety of devices (including nVidia) with no real issues. It’s been by far the most solid of the distributions I’ve used since I started using Linux in the '90s.
It’s always been for USeR binaries. It’s the first time I’ve seen this bizarre backronym (40 years of Unix here).
4·2 months agoThat’s what a ligature is. Combining two characters so they don’t clash.
Did they Google windows error messages?
Commercial software compatibility has always been poor. It’s a classic way of locking users in.
A lot of people (regardless of age) have a very fuzzy idea (if at all) of what a file or a directory is. They wouldn’t know a operating system if it sat on their face.
The only way to get them to use Linux is to switch the system on their computers. And they’ll probably manage just fine(after a bit of initial grumpiness), since most interfaces are pretty much the same anyway.
But they’re never going to change on their own.
They’re in Linux now, it should show the shortcuts they’ll encounter everywhere. Not leftovers from another system.
But it’s got blockchain!
(does that actually still get any vc excited nowadays?)
It’s not that simplle or user friendly when none of the usual shortcuts work. C-a did something completely unexpected.
archive.org is hosted in the US and could end up being a valid target. It doesn’t strike me as being a very good place to securely store anything nowadays. I’d consider anything hosted in the US to be out.
