They prefer RISC-0, and MONEY-5
They will move the goal post and complain about something else Linux does or doesn’t do.
There are definitely Rpi “card form factor” x86_64 SBCs. UP Board for example is one of those.
I have been using Odroid boards for many years. I currently have 3 C4 boards and 1 older C1 board. My kids use them as their computer in their rooms. Hardkernel is the company behind the boards, they also provided the official Home assistant blue devices that came pre installed with HASS.
I’m not familiar with podcasts. Where can i find these?

I don’t really have a problem with “selling” Linux. You gotta take all things with a dose of skepticism.
Has anyone ever recommended a product of any complexity as an OS and then also listed all of the common issues people might encounter? When people talk about a product they like, of course it will highlight the positive things, but anyone who has ever touched a computer, hobbyist or not, knows these things might sometimes shit the bed in unexpected ways. I think that’s common sense.
Windows is said to have less problems, but the cryptic errors and non descriptive “wait while we do something” message without any other output actually makes solving problems harder. It has more users, so luckily that means someone out there probably has the issue documented so solutions are easier to find.
I use both, at home primarily Linux, at work primarily Windows. I had troubles in both that caused serious headaches, but generally they both work without too much problems.
This might have been a bit rambling 😅
Local schools are offering “image editing” courses, which is always just learning how to use Photoshop. They are 4 3-month courses. People just need to accept they think Photoshop is easy because they’ve using it for so long and they’re used to it.
Good news is that since recently they also offer the courses with GIMP.

I don’t understand why people can’t simply believe that someone could actually have very little issues with performance or settings after switching.
What About™ people who have issues when installing windows, as if that never happens.
I put both kinds of operating systems on a myriad of computers and sometimes it’s smooth sailing and sometimes it’s like stepping on rake after rake.
My kids use odroid c4 devices. Great for browsing and videos, absolutely no gaming unless it’s old and native (quake 2, half life, …) or browser games like blockpost. They play the bejeezus out of that. All in all pretty good choice. It being both Linux and arm reduces the attack surface a bit considering these are kids with internet access.
If you like the form factor but prefer x86_64 then you could look into UP board series.
Yeah, how do I know that the PC isn’t slacking?
DeArrow, Consent-O-Matic and uBlock are ESSENTIAL.
“interrupt” is carrying more weight than what happened. They showed this message after the credits rolled.
I would argue the entirety of debian is one big “ESR” so it’s not out of place. If you want latest releases of software then Debian is not the droid you are looking for.
You don’t enjoy the thrill of “download button roulette”? One of them leads to salvation, the rest to damnation. Which will it be?
I need to know what user agent you are using before I can make a proper assessment. “Haha Microsoft thinks my Linux computer has edge installed”, if you present it outward as a Windows pc, isn’t really fair.
Does it break with normal use or are you a tinkerer?
