Wait. You want anti-corpo social media, but not anti-corpo discourse??

Look at your banks and credit cards features. Some of them have virtual cards that you can use. They're temporary numbers you can use to buy things.

Good to know. I thought it was behind on features.

The free version is out of date because they've been putting all of their effort into the steam version. It's with every penny.

I can't speak to what it was like pre steam, but they have updated it in the past to be much better. It's in the patch notes somewhere.

I have no horse in this race and tend to believe the poster, but those comments have no context and make no sense to me.

That's what Distrobox is for. It's super useful.

Have you looked at any of the Universal Blue OSs based off of Silverblue? You can rebase to them extremely easily and try them out with no risk.

All of Linux requires specialized knowledge. Immutable just takes different knowledge.

The real kicker with that is just that you can't always just follow instructions you find online. Usually you can, as long as you're doing them in a Distrobox, though.

I went with immutable as a newbie, and I think it's great. It feels like getting in on the ground floor of the future.

Escalator is smart, because if it breaks, you can still walk to space.

As an elder millennial: what?

Thanks! Luckily, drones aren't really much of a threat to us, at least not consumer drones. Autonomous delivery drones though...yikes.

Watching this video is what caused me to come to the conclusion that those kinds of drones aren't really a threat.

I saved this for later and just tried to watch it. The video is down. I'm curious what this incident is. I fly a paramotor myself.

One of the incredibly cool things about Bazzite (and all of the Silverblue based OSs) you can very easily rebased to another flavor. The only caveat is that apparently the Gnome flavors will cause issues with the KDE flavors or something. It's a Gnome issue from my understanding.

Rebasing takes a few minutes and a reboot, and you can easily revert it.

Debian sounds like a great fit for you. But it's good to know that Universal Blue has a lot of tools available for installing and tinkering that many just don't know about. They are extremely powerful OSs.

Who knows. People are passionate about Linux. And downvoting takes no effort. And people downvote stuff randomly.

And Homebrew. I'm a developer and I've done all my work just with Homebrew.

You have to reboot machines to run secure kernel code. High uptime means running outdated, vulnerable system code.

Did you ever try using Distrobox? That's the recommended way if installing random apps.

These distros are great for beginners or less technically savvy. They're really just harder for people who have been using Linux forever and are very accustomed to the old ways.
